CES 2026 has officially entered the era of RGB TVs, and Samsung is going big, literally! Kate gives you a close look at Samsung’s 130-inch Micro RGB TV, the company’s largest and most ambitious RGB display to date. As brands race to claim “world’s first” in this new category, Samsung’s approach is clear: scale, color precision and design. This massive display uses Micro RGB technology, with separate red, green, and blue LEDs for enhanced color accuracy and claimed full BT.2020 color gamut coverage. It’s powered by Samsung’s new Micro RGB AI Engine Pro, features Glare Free technology and is framed with a gallery-inspired design meant to make the TV feel more like a window (or a piece of art) than a screen. Thanks for watching this episode of Tom's Guide to CES 2026! What do you think about Samsung going all in on Micro RGB TVs 👀
So here's the thing about CES this year.
Everyone suddenly has a world's first RGB TV
and Samsung is looking to plant its flag with size.
Behind me is the world's first 130-inch micro RGB TV.
A couple of months back on the channel,
I showed you guys the 115-inch Samsung Micro LED TV.
Now this one is not only bigger,
it has a couple of new specs in store.
So this is Tom's guide to CES 2026. Let's get into the video.
For quick context, micro RGB means the TV uses separate red,
green, and blue LEDs instead
of white LEDs with filters.
This gives you more precise color control,
higher saturation, and better color accuracy
at extreme brightness levels.
Samsung is calling this Precision Color 100
and claims it can cover 100% of the BT.2020
color space, which is basically the holy grail
for next-gen displays with HDR content, although
Well, we'll have to talk more about those claims
in another video, but basically, I'd
put a little asterisk next to them.
Again, this is really about size.
At 130 inches, this isn't just a TV, it's a wall.
Samsung leans into that with the gallery-style frame
that's designed to look more like
a massive window than a screen.
The idea is technology as art, and honestly,
it's kind of working for me here.
Although you could also just wall-mount it
like you normally would a big TV, just like
Things like this over here.
This thing is powered by Samsung's Micro LED AI Engine Pro
with AI color boosting,
enhanced HDR, and glare-free tech to keep reflections down
in bright rooms just like this one.
And that last part really matters because at 130 inches,
any reflection becomes a problem fast.
But I gotta be real with you guys.
This is an ultra premium, ultra large, and very much a
statement TV. Most people are never going to be buying this,
but that's not really the point.
At CES, TVs like this one exist
to show where display tech is heading. And right now,
that direction is RGB backlighting, bigger screens,
and TVs designed to be part of the room, not just sit in it.
You guys have heard me say it before, we still need time
to be hands-on with these TVs in uncontrolled environments,
not like one Samsung has set up on the show floor,
but more real-world scenarios.
And that about does it for what I can share about
Samsung's 130 inch micro RGB TV here from CES.
I hope you guys are enjoying Tom's guide to CES 2026 so far.
Let me know which of the TVs,
which of the micro or RGB TVs I should say stands out the most.
Thanks for watching.
I'll catch you next time.
I just like my brain fritz.
So I was like, hi.
