    Not even paying $2,000 can save you from screensaver ads on LG OLED TVs

    • LG’s premium OLED TVs are now getting screensaver ads, according to a new report.
    • The LG TVs in question start at $2,400 but show screensaver ads for the company’s free TV channels.




    Advertising is pervasive on many streaming boxes, and we’ve also seen this trend on cheap TVs. Now, it turns out that even high-end OLED TVs are getting ads.

    Flat Panels HD recently reviewed the latest LG G4 OLED TV and found that it offered screensaver ads. These full-screen ads reportedly appear for an unspecified amount of time before a conventional screensaver kicks in. The ad seen by the outlet promoted LG’s free ad-supported TV service.
