Samsung is making a massive play for the future of home entertainment by significantly evolving its Micro RGB display technology. While we have seen various iterations of high-end panels over the years, Samsung’s latest announcement for 2026 suggests they are looking to dominate every corner of the living room. The upcoming lineup will expand to include a much wider range of sizes, starting from a modest 55 inches and scaling all the way up to a staggering 115 inch monster that would rival most home cinema projectors.
Hun Lee, the Executive Vice President of Samsung’s Visual Display Business, noted that this expansion aims to create a new premium category. By offering sizes that fit into standard apartments as well as sprawling estates, Samsung wants to ensure its highest picture quality standards are accessible to more than just the ultra-wealthy.
| Metric | Value | Unit | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Display Sizes | 55 – 115 | inches | Full range for 2026 lineup |
| LED Size | < 100 | μm | Microscopic LEDs for precise control |
| AI Processor | Micro RGB AI Engine Pro | — | Real-time rendering and upscaling |
| Audio Tech | Eclipsa Audio | — | Spatial 3D sound system |
Next-Gen Hardware and AI Smarts
The magic behind these displays lies in the microscopic LEDs. Each one is smaller than 100 micrometers, which is thinner than a human hair. This allows the TV to control light with incredible precision, leading to inkier blacks and color accuracy that puts traditional OLEDs on notice. It is a similar leap in hardware refinement to what we are seeing in the mobile space, such as rumors surrounding Samsung’s thinnest flip phone yet, where thinning down components leads to better performance.
Powering the 2026 models is the new Micro RGB AI Engine Pro. This chipset focuses on real-time image rendering, using AI Upscaling and Motion Enhancer to make sure even older content looks sharp on a 115 inch screen. It is an ambitious move for Samsung’s Micro RGB TV Series, positioning them as the leader in hardware-software integration.
The TV as an Intelligent Hub
Samsung is not just stopping at picture quality. These TVs are designed to be “intelligent hubs” using an upgraded Vision AI Companion. This feature allows you to talk to your TV using natural conversation rather than barking specific commands. Whether you are searching for a movie or checking your smart home status, the interaction should feel far more fluid.
On the audio side, the company is introducing Eclipsa Audio. This spatial sound system is built to provide immersive 3D audio right out of the box. It also plays nicely with Samsung’s existing tech, like Dolby Atmos and Q-Symphony, which syncs the TV speakers with a soundbar for a wall of sound. If you are looking to build a budget-friendly hub right now, you can already grab the Google TV Streamer for a discount, but Samsung’s 2026 vision is clearly on a different level of luxury.
We expect to see the full 2026 Micro RGB lineup in person at CES in Las Vegas this coming January 2026. Given the scale of these sets, they are likely to be the talk of the show floor.
