Last year, Samsung introduced its first product Micro RGB TVbut this model was only available in a whopping 115-inch size and had a hefty price tag of $27,000 as well. For 2026, it has unveiled two ranges – the R85H and R95H – with sizes between 55 and 100 inches, and prices starting at a more reasonable $1,600.
Why are they called these? Micro RGB TVs? First, they’re LCD TVs, like most of Samsung’s lineup, but the main difference here is that they use a different backlight system. Where most LCD TVs use a specialized filter to generate colors, the premium R95 and more affordable R85 models use clusters of small red, green, and blue LEDs to either replace or augment the filters.

Samsung says the R95H is up to 100% PT.2020 Color Zone, which is more colors than most TVs can hope for. However, having seen this TV and other shows that make the same claim, I don’t think it’s that big of a deal. At least, not now.
Competing TVs I’ve seen reach this number had plenty of color, yes, but resolution was reduced in the process, even according to each company’s own testing data. It is very important that your TV reproduces the color found in the content you are watching, rather than inventing an entirely new color. It should be noted that TVs usually reach these numbers Dynamic modewhich is known for being bright and cartoonishly colorful.
The Samsung R95H is the company’s high-end Micro RBG TV.
However, the most compelling feature of these TVs is their use of Samsung Glare Free technology, which is designed to virtually eliminate reflections from windows or overhead lights on the screen. I’ve seen it in person, and it’s one of the best anti-reflective systems out there.
The TVs will also be able to display Samsung’s own answer Dolby Vision 2: HDR10 Plus Advancedalthough it is not yet clear whether this format will be supported by content.
TVs are designed for gaming as well, and have dedicated gaming modes. For smooth motion, they include Samsung’s Motion Xcelerator 165Hz and Motion Xcelerator 144Hz, on the R95H and R85H, respectively.
The R95H is compatible with a Wireless One Connect box if you want to keep your sources separate from your TV. Both TVs come with the new Slim Fit Wall Mount, which allows access to ports located on a hinge at the top of the TV.
As is the case with most Announcing TVs at CESthese models contain a large number of AI modes, from image and audio processors to built-in chatbots from either Microsoft Copilot or Perplexity. Two of the most notable modes are AI Soccer Mode Pro (which can make the World Cup feel like a video game) and AI Sound Controller Pro, which can amplify or cut out different parts of the soundtrack, such as sound effects or dialogue.
While A 130 inch R95H It was announced at CES, and the company has not yet detailed any pricing or availability for this model.
At a press conference earlier this year, I took a look at a pre-production version of the R95H, and Samsung representatives told me that OLED TVs were still the better choice for picture quality, while Micro RGBs were better in terms of brightness and color. With their anti-reflective coatings and gaming features, I can see that these TVs will be very popular with console gamers, in particular.
However, Samsung isn’t the only manufacturer announcing Micro RGB TVs for 2026, and it’s hard to find a TV that isn’t. Although I’m skeptical about the benefits of achieving 100% BT.2020, it’s a factor I’ll be testing when I get my hands on compatible models.
