“This LG OLED tv is much heavier at 75 lbs than the other models. Is that correct? If so, why?”

• Most OLEDS are extremely thin minus where the electronics are housed, the G series is the same thickness thru out the entire rear I'm guessing for the addition of the heat sink and thermal regulation

• LG says this is heavier due to ‘the backlight that is used. Unlike LCD sets, OLED sets are self-lighted. So this answer doesn’t make sense.

• Vanessa the LG representative that said this TV is heavier because of the backlight she is incorrect she doesn't even know what she's talking about the LG OLED TVs are self lit there is no backlight the pixels are self lit there is no back lighting for LG OLED Tv's. I'm thinking it's most likely the added weight is from the heat sink that is installed in the TV to help keep it cool because of the added brightness, sorry Vanessa you are incorrect.
