LG Launches QNED MINI LED TVs in the UAE
LG Electronics (LG) has today announced the availability of its first-ever QNED Mini LED TVs in the UAE – leading to its premium LCD lineup. LG’s latest TVs leverage Quantum Dot NanoCell colour technology and Mini LED backlight technologies to deliver brightness and contrast far superior to that of conventional LCD televisions. LG’s QNED Mini LED TV lineup consists of 8K QNED99 and QNED95 series models, alongside 4K QNED90 series models, in screen sizes ranging from 65 to 86 inches.
Mini LEDs, an advanced light source technology, are significantly smaller than the backlights found in conventional LCD displays. This allows LG QNED Mini LED TVs to pack more LEDs and more dimming zones into the screen. LG’s 86-inch 8K model features approximately 30,000 Mini LEDs to produce a bright, high-quality picture, while close to 2,500 unique dimming zones deliver stunning blacks with a reduced halo effect, even in the darkest scenes.
With LG’s outstanding colour reproduction technology, colors achieve full volume on LG QNED Mini LED TVs. Certified via independent third-party testing, the evolved display accurately captures a wider color gamut to deliver rich colors that remain brilliant even at maximum brightness levels. This ensures a vibrant experience and keeps everything the viewer is watching looking exactly as intended.
Certified by international product testing agency Intertek for providing 100 percent color volume and color consistency, LG QNED Mini LED TVs also eliminates colour distortion across a wide viewing angle, ensuring everyone in the room can enjoy the ultimate in LCD picture quality. At the core of LG QNED Mini LED is the α9 Gen 4 AI Processor for 8K models and the α7 Gen 4 AI Processor for 4K variants. Each groundbreaking chip uses deep-learning algorithms to analyze and optimize content, automatically.
AI Picture Pro references a vast database of visual data points to recognize content, removes noise, and optimizes picture quality. The new Scene Detection feature can now analyze the type of scene being shown and improve the picture accordingly. With AI Sound Pro, by learning from audio data points, the processor identifies voices, effects, and frequencies so that it can optimize the sound by genre for a more immersive experience. With new Auto Volume Leveling, the TV also maintains consistent voice levels across different types of content.
To further maximize the TV experience, new QNED Mini LED also feature LG ThinQ technology. The newly designed home screen shows personalized content suggestions, gives easier access to favorites, and lets users control connected devices all in one place. LG has also evolved its Magic Remote to feature a more ergonomic design that makes it easier to hold, and its point and scroll system faster for searching. Built-in AI offers easy access to services, while hotkeys for major content providers makes accessing content quicker than ever before.
LG QNED Mini LED TVs have received Eco-Product certification from SGS Société Générale de Surveillance SA of Switzerland. This certification is only awarded to products that fulfill SGS requirements to standards that include low environmental impact or recyclability.[2]
All LG QNED Mini LED TVs are now available at major electronic retailers across the UAE. The pricing of the 86-inch 8K QNED99 starts at AED 27,999, the 75-inch 8K QNED95 starts at AED 18,999, the 75-inch 4K QNED90 starts at AED 14,999, and the 65-inch 4K QNED90 starts at AED 9,999.

Canon Intros SELPHY QX20 Portable Colour Photo Printer
Canon Middle East unveils the latest addition to its portable printer range with the launch of the SELPHY QX20, an exciting evolution to the previous QX10, enabling users to continue broadening their creative horizons with greater freedom. Leaning into popular social media formats, this upgrade now supports 2:3 as well as square paper sizes and is available in on-trend terracotta red, dark grey and classic white.
The new QX20 is a must-have gadget for those with a passion for creativity. Whether that be making visual notes for personal projects, decorating journals or scrapbooks using sticky-backed paper, crafting personalised notes for loved ones, or simply decorating wall spaces, SELPHY QX20 delivers high-quality, long-lasting pictures straight from a smartphone. The flexibility in paper sizes lends itself nicely to 365 photo challenges, inviting users to print one photo a day as a wonderfully tangible way to remember smaller daily moments.
Without the need for ink cartridges, the SELPHY QX20 uses dye sublimation technology that produces smudge-free, high-quality photos. An overcoat is added to resist the effect of fading. Easily transportable and complete with a built-in battery and Wi-Fi compatibility, the printer fits comfortably in a bag, meaning it can be used on-the-go to transform memories into physical keepsakes on the spot. At home, its compact size means it can sit neatly on any shelf or desk without competing for tabletop space.
Beyond the choice of paper size, wider creative expression is available with the SELPHY Photo Layout App, where fun artistic touches like stamps, filters, borders, and text can be added to special memories. For example, snowflakes can be added to a selfie to use as a Christmas table place card or hearts when making a homemade Valentine’s Day gift. The update also includes collages, frames and customisable borders, with new edge-to-edge printing meaning more of the memory can be seen with each print.
Joining an expanding portfolio of portable mobile printers, including the CP1500, a super compact photo printer for the desk, and the Zoemini range, a series of pocket-sized devices to print instant peel-and-stick photos, the latest QX20 fits perfectly into this line-up – a functional yet stylish printer and the ideal product for unleashing creativity, anytime, anywhere.
