Samsung set for more Micro RGB in 2026

The initialism and acronym likely to set the TV world on fire is all about tiny red, green, and blue lights sitting behind pixels, as Samsung expands its range.

CES is just around the corner, and if you follow technology like we do (or read our site and sites like it religiously), you know what that means: new technology, much of it going to the world of TVs.

Televisions are almost always the big ticket tech item that brings everyone to the show, even though TVs aren’t quite the centre of the home as they once were. However, it’s where you can expect big changes in display technology, and ahead of the show, Samsung is talking about what we can expect.

Earlier this year, we saw the release of Samsung’s latest technology, Micro RGB, using tiny red, green, and blue LEDs behind each pixel to provide more accuracy in light control, but only in a $42,999 TV.

At 115 inches, the Samsung Micro RGB R95 is an impressive screen at an equally impressive price, showcasing the capability of Micro RGB technology in a huge size, competing with Hisense’s approach to the same technology.

Next year, however, Samsung says there will be more sizes on the way, which also means more price points.

While there’s no word yet on what those price points will be, Samsung has said it will expand the range, covering Micro RGB sizes as small as 55 inches and as large as that 115 inch R95 from before, including 65, 75, 85, and 100 inches.

The technology will also include 4K upscaling and an AI engine for frame analysis to improve the video clarity, while also boosting the colour for the screens.

“Samsung’s Micro RGB range delivers TVs capable of producing an accurate spectrum of colours, brilliant brightness, and frame-by-frame clarity, bringing new levels of realism to home cinema experiences for Australian sport lovers and movie streamers alike,” said Simon Howe, Director for Audio Visual at Samsung in Australia.

“In bringing a full range of display sizes, Samsung is ensuring its Micro RGB displays are ready to support various Australian lifestyles and living spaces with new levels of exceptional picture quality,” he said.

The preview is just one of list of things Samsung looks set to launch at CES, which will include improvements to its home appliances, as well, including AI in the laundry and additions to its robotic vacuums and air conditioner technologies, all of which fall under its “Bespoke AI” range.

Of course, CES 2026 (and the new year) aren’t far behind, with more of this news expected in the early days of 2026.
