Audio is no longer just something you listen to – it’s something you feel, interact with and experience in transformative ways. To push these boundaries further, LG and multi-platinum musician and tech entrepreneur will.i.am have joined forces to introduce LG xboom by will.i.am, a new audio product lineup enhanced with AI technologies, well-balanced sound, versatile designs and exceptional lighting and interaction features.
At CES 2025, LG and will.i.am shared a deeper insight into their joint vision for the LG xboom by will.i.am, revealing the very first products to feature in this highly-anticipated series. With will.i.am as its “Experiential Architect,” LG aims to establish xboom as a culture-driven brand redefining listening experiences in the most diverse and inventive ways.
LG and will.i.am’s close collaboration saw him actively define the sound performance, visual design and branding of the rejuvenated LG xboom brand. His influence stems not only from his musical prowess but also from his aesthetic sensibilities and storytelling ability that resonate with global audiences. The collaboration aims to enhance every aspect of the customer journey – from the first touch to the joy of experiencing music and content – inspiring a lasting love for the xboom brand.
During the LG World Premiere press conference at CES 2025, will.i.am took the stage to outline the endless potential of the LG xboom by will.i.am collaboration, showcasing how the latest audio products bring cutting-edge tech and creative visions together. “Our goal with the new xboom series was never about duplicating what already existed,” he said. “It’s about reimagining what a speaker is supposed to be… it’s about finding your inspiration.”
Every audio solution in the LG xboom by will.i.am lineup has been professionally tuned by the multiple Grammy Award-winning artist to establish xboom’s signature sound – an expertly balanced audio profile with warmer tones. The playfully compact designs embody will.i.am’s creative artistry, drawn from his life-long experience in pop culture. Leveraging his understanding of what people love as well as his expertise in developing technologies for creatives, will.i.am played a pivotal role in developing the LG xboom brand.
The LG xboom by will.i.am series introduces the Bounce, Grab and Stage 301, all powered by AI to elevate the listening experience. These advanced speakers analyze music in real time, dynamically adjusting sound to highlight key elements like melody, rhythm and vocals. AI Lighting creates a vibrant atmosphere by syncing speaker lights to the beat of the music, while AI Calibration lets the speakers adapt to their surroundings instantaneously for rich sounds in various spaces. For the first time, LG’s xboom speakers feature a dedicated button for seamless connection to RAiDiO.FYI, a radio platform created by will.i.am offering personalized content curated by an AI Radio Host.
The Bounce’s up-bouncing passive radiators pulse with the beat, adding a dynamic visual element to the audio experience. Its adjustable strap ensures versatility, allowing it to be effortlessly held, hung or placed on any surface, harmonizing with any environment or occasion.
Engineered to be the ultimate portable speaker, the Grab combines powerful sound with a compact, travel-friendly design. Its slim, one-handed design makes it ideal for on-the-go use, while dual passive radiators on each side deliver rich bass and lively sound, filling spaces effortlessly despite its small size.
The xboom Stage 301 transforms any space into a stage with its 6.5-inch woofer and dual 2.5-inch midrange drivers. Perfect for large rooms or parties, this speaker features a built-in handle for easy carrying and a clever wedge design for flexible placement – whether flat on its base, tilted back or mounted on a tripod.
The lineup also includes LG’s latest earbuds, the xboom Buds. These advanced earbuds not only produce well-balanced sound and rich bass, but also feature an effective Active Noise Cancelling (ANC) and lightweight grapheme drivers. Designed for both comfort and stability, these new LG earbuds feature ergonomic ear tips that adapt to different ear shapes, while a unique ear hook design provides a secure fit for active lifestyles.
CES 2025 served as the debut stage for the 2025 LG xboom by will.i.am lineup.

This groundbreaking mobility space solution integrates a full suite of LG’s smart life solutions to create a seamless connection between mobility and the AI Home, offering entirely new lifestyle experiences.
LG’s MX platform expands the definition of home solutions, creating a new type of multifaceted, multipurpose space. Using a modular package system, the platform integrates LG’s innovative appliance hardware and AI technologies to transform the vehicle cabin into an adaptable environment. This space can function as an extension of the home, a private media lounge or a creative studio, unlocking a raft of exciting “Space-as-an-Experience” opportunities for potential customers.
The MX platform aligns with prevailing auto industry trends and customer preferences, which are shifting away from traditional notions of transportation and towards the idea of vehicles as a personalized lifestyle space. The platform offers a tailored lifestyle experience where the latest products, AI solutions and services synergize to support superior user comfort and convenience.
The MX platform features a dual-cabin design: a front driver’s cabin and a rear customizable experience space. Users can configure this versatile space in a variety of different ways, such as dividing it into multifunctional zones or converting it into a hyper-personalized lifestyle spaces complete like a creator studio, business lounge or separate zones for relaxation and hobbies. The modular design makes it possible to equip the rear cabin with various appliances, enabling users to select combinations that meet their particular needs and preferences. LG plans to offer the MX platform as a subscription service, making it accessible to a broader audience.
Powered by LG’s AI Home solution, ThinQ ON, the MX platform lets users tailor conditions inside the vehicle and enjoy helpful lifestyle services such as daily schedule management and information briefings. Additional services from external providers – including food and beverage order, laundry and hotel booking – can be integrated to further expand and enrich the user experience.

Company Enhances Smart Home Connectivity With Open API
SEOUL, Dec. 17, 2024 — LG Electronics (LG) has fully opened the Application Programming Interface (API) of its smart home platform, LG ThinQ, enabling developers to easily create smart spaces with LG appliances.
Recently, LG launched the LG Smart Solution API Developer website (
link hidden, please login to view) to officially open up the LG ThinQ API. An API acts as a digital connector that allows different software to exchange functions seamlessly. Developers can utilize the open API to integrate various features from LG AI appliances into their programs or systems, enhancing their services. The LG ThinQ API is divided into two categories: the ThinQ API for individual users and the ThinQ Business API for corporate partners. The ThinQ API allows for remote control of LG devices installed in homes or buildings and facilitates integration with various platforms.
For individual users, the ThinQ API supports the control and monitoring of AI appliances registered in the LG ThinQ app from various smart home platforms. By utilizing the ThinQ API, anyone can easily create a customized smart home that fits their lifestyle. For example, users of the global smart home platform Home Assistant can now connect and control 26 types of LG AI appliances, including refrigerators and washing machines, within their existing smart home environment. Home Assistant is a community-based open platform with about one million users worldwide who collaboratively develop various smart home functions such as device automation and feature expansion.
For enterprises, the ThinQ Business API supports partners operating office or residential buildings in integrating and managing various LG products, from appliances to commercial equipment like HVAC and signage, with their existing apps. For instance, large residential buildings can integrate LG appliances with their existing management apps for more convenient use. Residents can reserve the use of LG washers and dryers in common areas through the building management app, or administrators can detect abnormal conditions in the building using LG’s temperature and humidity sensors and quickly respond to issues through alert functions.
Meanwhile, LG has accelerated the integration of external products and services into the LG ThinQ platform by acquiring the smart home platform company Athom, known for its extensive IoT device connectivity. Athom’s smart home hub Homey currently connects over 50,000 types of appliances and IoT devices, and the Athom app store features around 1,000 apps that connect and control products and services from global brands like Philips and Aqara. LG plans to integrate Athom’s extensive open ecosystem and IoT device connectivity into the AI home hub LG ThinQ On, aiming to realize an AI home where generative AI better understands customers and provides optimal space solutions.
“With the official launch of ThinQ AI, we aim to deepen engagement with open-source community smart home power users in the open-source community and broaden our collaboration with B2B partners. This initiative will bolster our efforts to create smart home ecosystems powered by LG appliances, enhancing customer experiences across multiple touchpoints,” said Kim Kun-woo, vice president of LG’s Home Appliance Solution Company.
