LG offers affordable Apple TV+ monthly rate on smart TVs
LG Electronics is providing LG Smart TV owners in New Zealand with an opportunity to access Apple TV+ for three months at NZD $3.99 per month until 7 July 2025.
The offer covers unlimited streaming of Apple Originals and other content through the Apple TV app found on compatible LG 4K and 8K Smart TVs from 2018 models onwards.
Eligible devices also include lifestyle screen models such as StanbyME, StanbyME Go, LG MyView smart monitors, and LG CineBeam projectors.
Apple TV+ features a range of programming, including drama and comedy series, documentaries, and family entertainment.
Titles available to subscribers include the series Severance, sci-fi shows like Silo, comedies such as The Studio, and dramas including The Morning Show and Your Friends & Neighbours. Films available on the platform include The Gorge, The Instigators, Wolfs, The Family Plan, and more. Award-winning content for younger audiences, such as Jane, Stillwater, and Peanuts originals, is also part of the catalogue.
LG positions its OLED TVs as compatible with Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos, enabling viewers to watch Apple TV+ content in 4K with advanced visual and audio features. LG's premium TVs also offer Filmmaker Mode, which is designed to preserve the content creator's intended viewing experience, and support titles mastered in Dolby Vision.
"LG is committed to elevating the viewing experience by offering an extensive array of content and services, market leading picture quality and immersive audio. LG Smart users can access the full suite of content and services offered by LG Smart TVs with the versatile and user-friendly webOS platform," the company stated in the media release.

The promotion is limited to new and qualified returning Apple TV+ subscribers and is restricted to one offer per TV and Apple account. At the end of the three-month period, plans automatically renew at NZD $14.99 per month unless cancelled. The offer cannot be combined with other promotions that provide access to the same service.
LG's webOS platform, which has underpinned LG TVs for over a decade, is highlighted as a flexible user interface that allows customers to navigate and customise their viewing experience.
