I love Intramuros. The walled city in Manila is rich in history that stepping into its gates is like going back in time. The cobblestone streets, the heritage buildings, and the museums are a reminder of Manila’s storied past and, with the guidance of newly-minted mayor Isko Moreno, its future. One of the new additions to the area is Museo de Intramuros, a museum that houses religious artifacts found in churches near and around the district.
The museum opened early this year, in time for the 40th anniversary of the Intramuros Administration. The government agency is tasked with the orderly restoration, management, development, and promotion of Intramuros as a national heritage. To make its celebration more special, LG donated six units of the TVs to the museum, in order to pair the walled city’s rich and colorful history together with tomorrow’s technology.
The TVs were launched with a special AVP made by TBA Studios, the creative geniuses behind local hit movies Heneral Luna and Goyo: Ang Batang Heneral. The video, directed by JP Habac with cinematography by Pong Ignacio, aims to showcase the enchanting beauty of Intramuros through its crystal-clear OLED displays.

LG’s newest line of TVs is powered by never before seen cutting-edge technology. With Deep Learning technology now embedded in their new α9 Gen2 and α7 Gen2 processors – the TV, through intuitive recognition, can understand how to optimize and enhance the picture and sound for any content. The AI feeds on data and adapts accordingly, giving you the most optimal viewing experience possible. With Deep Learning technology, the LG TV can understand how to display the best picture quality from any source and resolution.
LG’s AI doesn’t just stop at picture quality. You can also talk to your TV. When you press the microphone button on your remote, LG’s ThinQ AI listens to your commands and executes them, even those based on an earlier “conversation.” From simple TV controls to weather questions, you can create follow-up questions based on your initial command and the ThinQ AI will still carry on the conversation.
If that wasn’t enough, LG’s flagship OLED TVs also have LG’s award-winning OLED Panel Technology that works seamlessly with Deep Learning Technology. Sound quality is boosted by an intelligent algorithm that can up-mix two-channel audio to deliver convincing virtual 5.1 surround sound. Deep learning significantly improves output by analyzing source content to produce enhanced sound effects in movies, deeper bass in music and clearer voices in sporting events. Users can adjust the sound to suit viewing conditions or let the TV set the best sound levels based on the environment.
High Dynamic Range (HDR) is made possible with the help of Dolby Atmos for incredibly realistic sound as the TV intelligently fine-tunes content compatible with Dolby Vision. The TV supports HDMI 2.1, allowing viewers the opportunity to enjoy 4K content at a blazing fast 60 frames per second. The TV also supports automatic low latency mode (ALLM), variable refresh rate (VRR), and enhanced audio return channel (eARC).
Visitors to the newly-opened Museo de Intramuros will get to experience the beauty of LG TVs when they get to visit. It offers a new way to look at Philippine history!
