Samsung is preparing to shake up the high end display market once again. The company recently revealed an ambitious roadmap for its Micro RGB TV portfolio, with a major expansion set to arrive in 2026. This new lineup isn’t just about incremental upgrades. It is a full scale push to bring next generation panel technology into variety of living room sizes, ranging from a standard 55 inches to a staggering 115 inch monster that practically turns your wall into a private cinema.
Hun Lee, Executive Vice President of the Visual Display Business at Samsung, noted that the goal is to establish a new premium category. By offering a wider range of sizes, Samsung hopes to maintain its high picture standards while making the technology more accessible for different modern living spaces. This strategy aligns with Samsung’s high stakes vision for its display dominance in the coming years.
| Metric | Value | Unit | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Display Sizes | 55 to 115 | inches | Full range for 2026 lineup |
| LED Size | < 100 | micrometers | Individual microscopic LEDs |
| Processor | Micro RGB AI Engine Pro | — | Features AI Upscaling and Motion Enhancer |
| Audio Tech | Eclipsa Audio | — | Spatial sound with Dolby Atmos support |
| AI Interface | Vision AI Companion | — | Natural conversation support |
The Tech Behind the Glow
If you are wondering what makes Micro RGB special, it comes down to the scale. These displays use microscopic LEDs that are smaller than 100 micrometers. Because each pixel is its own light source, you get absolute control over brightness and color accuracy without the blooming issues often seen in traditional backlit sets.
The 2026 models will be powered by the Micro RGB AI Engine Pro. This isn’t just a fancy name. It is a dedicated chipset designed for real time image rendering, using AI Upscaling and Motion Enhancer technology to ensure that even fast moving sports or older content look crisp on such a large canvas. This focus on hardware optimization is a frequent theme for the brand, much like how potential silicon shifts in their mobile division point toward tighter integration of software and hardware.
A Smarter Living Room Hub
Samsung is also leaning heavily into the “intelligent home” angle. The upcoming TVs will feature the Vision AI Companion, an upgraded interface that allows users to talk to their TV using natural language. It is designed to act as a hub for your entire connected home rather than just a screen you watch on Friday nights.
On the audio side, the company is introducing Eclipsa Audio. This spatial sound system is built to create a 3D soundstage right out of the box. It works in tandem with existing tech like Dolby Atmos and Q-Symphony, which syncs the TV speakers with compatible Samsung soundbars for a more unified experience. This comprehensive approach to the “premium” experience is similar to how the upcoming Galaxy Z Flip 8 aims to refine the foldable experience through better build quality and thinner designs.
We expect to see the full 2026 Micro RGB lineup in person during CES in Las Vegas this January 2026. Until then, tech enthusiasts can look forward to a future where the line between a movie theater and a living room becomes even thinner.
