Attention, Aussie shoppers: LG is slashing prices on TVs and audio gear, but here's where it gets controversial—are these end-of-life models still worth your money? LG Electronics Australia has just supercharged its clearance sale, adding even more discounts to an already tempting lineup. This time, it’s not just about TVs—selected sound bars, Bluetooth speakers, and smart TVs are now part of the deal, all available on their local website. But this is the part most people miss: LG is positioning this as an extension of its earlier OLED TV clearance, blending 2025-model markdowns with audio deals from the same range. Is this a smart move or a last-ditch effort to clear inventory? Let’s dive in.
The sale includes jaw-dropping discounts on LG’s QNED MiniLED TVs, known for their vibrant colors and deep contrast. For instance, the 75-inch QNED evo AI QNED86 MiniLED 4K smart TV is now AUD $2,199, down from AUD $2,995—a savings of nearly $800. Smaller sizes like the 65-inch and 55-inch models are also heavily discounted, priced at AUD $1,699 and AUD $1,299, respectively. LG touts these TVs as a fusion of MiniLED, Quantum Dot, and NanoCell technologies, but does this justify the price tag for a soon-to-be-outdated model? That’s up for debate.
If MiniLED isn’t your thing, LG’s QNED AI QNED81 4K smart TVs are also on sale across six screen sizes, starting at AUD $899 for the 43-inch model and going up to AUD $2,795 for the massive 86-inch version. These TVs combine Quantum Dot and NanoCell tech with Mini-LED backlighting and the webOS platform. But here’s the kicker: are these features enough to compete with newer models hitting the market soon?
NanoCell TVs are also part of the sale, though with smaller discounts. The 65-inch NanoCell AI NANO80 4K smart TV is now AUD $1,295, while the 43-inch model is priced at AUD $745. LG emphasizes color purity and wide viewing angles, but some might argue that NanoCell tech is already being overshadowed by OLED and MiniLED advancements. Is this a bargain or a relic?
For those on a tighter budget, LG’s 32-inch HD LR65 smart TV is a steal at AUD $295, down from AUD $399. It’s perfect for smaller spaces, with built-in Wi-Fi and HDMI/USB connectivity. But let’s be real—in an era of 4K and 8K, is HD still cutting it?
On the audio front, LG’s C Series sound bar SC9S is now AUD $999, down from AUD $1,199. Paired with Dolby Atmos and AI sound processing, it’s designed to complement your TV setup. Meanwhile, the xboom Bluetooth speaker range, including models branded with will.i.am, offers discounts of up to AUD $80. The xboom Go XG2T, for example, is just AUD $69. But with so many portable speakers on the market, are these deals truly standout?
All these offers are available exclusively through the LG Australia website, covering both home entertainment screens and audio hardware. LG calls it ‘more ways for Aussies to save,’ but the real question is: Are these savings worth it, or should you wait for the next big thing? Let us know in the comments—do you think these end-of-life models are still a good buy, or is LG just clearing out old stock? The debate is open!
