LG Receives Record Number of Awards During First-Ever All-digital CES

More than 190 Accolades Include 7^th Consecutive Recognition
for Market-leading LG OLED TV

TORONTO, Jan. 22, 2021 /CNW/ - LG Electronics (LG) took home the most CES^® awards ever at the 2021 all-digital event – a pivotal moment in history for the technology industry – earning more than 190 honours across its home appliance, home entertainment, IT and mobile categories.  

This recognition was led by Engadget's Best of CES Award (the official award program of CES) in the TV category to LG OLED for a seventh consecutive year; in 2021 the acclaimed LG C1 series OLED TV was singled out from the thousands of new TVs shown at CES 2021. Also receiving Engadget's Best of CES Award was the LG Rollable smartphone, grabbing the win for Best Phone/Mobile Device after it was previewed during LG's CES 2021 press announcement.

LG's renowned OLED TVs took home the industry's top awards and honours, continuing its CES dominance. Among the newly announced LG TV models highly favoured among industry experts is the LG G1 series' OLED evo, the next step in the evolution of OLED TV technology that garnered honours from The Verge, Rolling Stone and Gear Patrol. The new LG A1 series OLED TV was honoured by Digital Trends for Top Tech of CES 2021 Award: Best in Show, touting it a "pragmatic product" and "manna from heaven" given its combination of high calibre and attractive pricing for the masses.  

LG's new InstaView™ Door-in-Door^® refrigerators also won big in the home appliance space, garnering accolades from the likes of Tom's Guide, WIRED, Newsweek and PCMag. LG WashTower™ – the sleek, single-unit laundry solution that takes up half the floor space while tackling ultra-large loads – was recognized by leading lifestyle publications such as House Beautiful and Best Products.

From the CTA's official award program alone, LG won 24 CES Innovation Awards including two Best of Innovation Awards given to LG's C1 OLED TV and LG's InstaView ThinQ refrigerator with voice recognition. LG accolades were received this year from tech experts at major media such as USA Today/Reviewed, CNET, CNN, The Wall Street Journal, The Verge, Women's Health, Business Insider and much more.
