These included the highly coveted "Best of IFA" award, positioning the South Korean electronics giant as a leading force in consumer technology and innovation.

The IFA Innovation Awards—launched this year—recognise trailblazing advancements across 16 categories, focusing on innovation, design, technology integration, and market relevance. LG’s comprehensive sweep across multiple segments showcased not only its commitment to cutting-edge design but also its ability to deliver consumer-centric, future-forward solutions.

A standout among LG’s award-winning products was the LG Signature OLED T, the world’s first wireless transparent television. This groundbreaking product earned the Best of IFA distinction and also clinched Best in Home Entertainment, marking a significant leap in television design and functionality.

Beyond its headline-grabbing TV innovation, LG also received five Category Best titles and 11 Honouree recognitions. In the Mobility category, the LG Spielraum, an AI-powered in-car environment combining wellness and entertainment, was named Best in class. The company also took top honours in Accessibility with the LG Comfort Kit, designed to improve usability for people with varying needs.

In the Home Appliance segment, LG’s focus on sustainability and smart features was evident. The AI Sense Clean Dishwasher and Microplastic Filter stood out for their intelligent cleaning systems and environmental impact mitigation. Other home solutions like the LG WashTower, Heat Pump Washer & Dryer, Robot Vacuum with Built-in Station, and Wet & Dry Stick Vacuum were acknowledged for enhancing convenience and operational efficiency.

Design excellence was another area where LG excelled. Products such as the Washer & Tumble Dryer Pair, TrueSteam™ Dishwasher, Next LG Massage Recliner, and LG Styler Mini were recognised for their aesthetic appeal and ergonomic innovation.

In the Smart Home category, LG’s Robot Vacuum with Objet Station received praise for its seamless AI integration. Meanwhile, the Wireless OLED TV (M5) and the StanbyME 2 earned additional recognition for enriching the home entertainment experience.

Commenting on the wins, Mr. Hyoung Sub Ji, Managing Director of LG Electronics West Africa, said:
