About these TVs

LG sells some screens outside its main TV lines. The ones we could confirm on LG's site run webOS: the 42-inch OLED Flex (42LX3QPUA, webOS 22) and the 2026 Gallery TV (LX7B, webOS 26) in the US and UK.

LG's US site also lists the StanbyME Go (27LX5QKNA) with webOS, but it doesn't give a model year or webOS version, so we haven't listed it as a model yet.

LG's press release says the OLED Flex is in the webOS Re:New upgrade program, like other 2022 OLED TVs.
