LG received two Best of the Best awards and 30 Red Dot Awards. In particular, the 4K Oled Tv (model 65E6) and the Bottom-Freezer Refrigerator (model GA- B489SADN/GA-B489TADN) have been chosen for the prestigious Best of the Best awards. “The LG 4K Oled Tv – commented the company in a press release – boasts a slick appearance and chic charms while maintaining the distinctive design of LG’s premium Oled televisions”. “Unlike other models that implement unwieldy bar handles that project outward from the refrigerator – LG added – the Bottom-Freezer Refrigerator features an innovative Easy Open Handle that is tucked away at the bottom of the door, making it almost completely imperceptible. The refrigerator’s stylish trim is also equipped with refined mood lighting, making the doors easy to open at all hours of the day”. As regards with the 30 Red Dot Awards, the judges awarded the LG Signature refrigerator that was honored for its Knock-on Door-in-Door and Auto Door Open features while the LG Signature washer was recognized for its double load capability as well as its touch-enabled user interface in its glass door. Judges were also impressed by the LG Signature Air Purifier with its transparent window that allows users to watch the air purifying process at work. The LG Signature Oled Tv was also honored, with judges citing its ultra-thin 2.57 mm glass panel. Besides, the LG G5 smartphone also received honors. “We are extremely honored to receive these prestigious awards for our efforts to drive design innovation in consumer electronics and appliances – said Noh Chang-ho, head of LG Electronics’ corporate design center -. LG is committed to design excellence and these awards are affirmation that we are on the right track”.
