Samsung is broadening its lineup of Micro RGB televisions, a development that could significantly improve color accuracy and brightness for consumers. The company is now offering these advanced displays in sizes as small as 55 inches, making the high-end technology more accessible than before.
What Makes Micro RGB Different?
Traditional TVs use backlights that don’t always produce pure, accurate colors. Micro RGB technology uses extremely small red, green, and blue LEDs as the backlight. This allows for far more precise control over light, resulting in colors that are brighter, more vivid, and closer to real-world hues. Samsung claims its Micro RGB TVs can achieve 100% coverage of the BT.2020 color gamut – a key metric for professional-grade color reproduction.
New Features and Sizes
The expanded range will include models from 55 inches up to 115 inches, catering to a wider range of living spaces and budgets. Samsung is also including “Glare Free” technology to improve viewing in brightly lit rooms, which is a common complaint with high-end TVs.
Beyond picture quality, the new TVs will feature:
- Enhanced Audio: Support for the Eclipsa standard for immersive sound.
- AI Integration: Features like Live Translate, Generative Wallpaper (which adapts the screen’s background to match content), and on-screen search.
Competition Heats Up
Samsung isn’t alone in pursuing this technology. LG has also announced plans to release Micro RGB TVs at CES 2026, indicating that this is likely to be a major trend in the high-end TV market.
This competition between Samsung and LG will likely drive innovation and lower prices over time, making better color accuracy more available to consumers. The race to adopt Micro RGB is also a sign that the industry is pushing beyond OLED and QLED as the peak of display technology.
The launch of smaller Micro RGB TVs by Samsung signals a shift towards wider adoption of this advanced display technology, promising a more vibrant viewing experience for a larger segment of the market.
