Samsung has just unveiled a new Micro RGB TV at CES 2026, which it says is the world’s first 130-inch TV using this next-gen tech to be shown off – the previous largest was the Hisense 116UX 116-inch TV.
Sadly, it’s just a showpiece right now rather than something that’s officially being launched for sale — though don’t forget that this time last year I saw this Micro RGB tech prototypes for the first time, and Samsung launched its first Micro RGB TV before the end of 2025. So who knows, maybe this will still go on sale.
One of the crucial points here is the great-looking stand that it’s built into. Samsung calls it the ‘Timeless Frame’ – it takes elements from the Frame design language used in The Frame TVs and incorporates elements of the Samsung Timeless Gallery TV design from over a decade ago, as used on the Samsung S9 Ultra TV.
A 130-inch TV obviously dominates any space and has some simple ‘how do I mount this? Do I need to find a 10 feet wide TV unit?’ questions. But that’s all sorted here – it’s one huge unit, nice and easy. Well, it would probably be a team of five to build it safely, but otherwise, nice and easy.
It uses all the same tech as Samsung’s other Micro RGB TV range, including the Micro RGB Color Booster Pro and Micro RGB HDR Pro tech that makes the most of the expanded color range of RGB TV tech – as with the RU95H TV range that Samsung is actually releasing, it promises to deliver 100% of the BT.2020 color range.
(For more about why RGB tech is special and what TVs are coming with in 2026, see my article on it here. The short version is that the LED backlight swaps a single color of LED for a full-color red/green/blue system, which means the pixels don’t need to do as much work to convert the colors, so there’s a much richer color palette that’s also more energy efficient.)
It also includes Samsung’s Glare Free matte display coating to avoid mirror-like reflections. I can see the logic here – a huge screen is more likely to reflect things just because there’s so much of it, so eliminating reflections is important if you think of this as a lifestyle TV to use in any given room.
However, if Samsung actually made this, it feels like it’ll find its strongest calling in home theater rooms – or at least with home theater fans who make plans to control their lighting – so maybe this is an unnecessary element. But hey, it’s a big flashy showcase and that’s tech Samsung uses on its flagships, so it makes sense that it’s here.
And it looks like a total knockout in person: projector-size images with absolutely mind-blowing color vividness, ultra-deep black tones thanks to excellent dimming control, and stunning brightness that makes real-world images look hyper-real.
It’s with the more vivid colors that the advantages of RGB backlighting tech really pop off the display, with greens and reds especially looking sweeter and truer than you even really see – and at a much higher level of overall brightness than OLED TVs can deliver.
I didn’t get to hear the sound system of the TV, but it has 14(!) bass units built into the back, so Samsung isn’t screwing around there.
Samsung didn’t mention if this uses the Wireless One Connect box the company offers for The Frame Pro and the new Samsung S95H flagship OLED TV coming in 2026 – and that’s probably because it’s a prototype, and such practical questions don’t really matter. But I have to assume that if Samsung launched it, it would use it.
I wouldn’t be surprised if this isn’t the only 130-inch RGB TV I see at CES this year, but Samsung has definitely won the honor of being the first – and it’s made a big impression on me as a result.
