Description:
LG is bringing RGB TV tech to CES 2026 with its first Micro RGB evo set, promising an ultra-wide color gamut in three sizes.

FULL STORY ======================================================================

Weve heard plenty about RGB TV tech from all the mainstays Sony and Samsung included and now LG is teeing up its debut at CES 2026 (Consumer Electronics Show) of what it believes is the best of the best: a Micro RGB TV that could deliver one of the widest color gamuts weve seen from an LCD display.

LGs first-ever Micro RGB TV will be shown off at the annual show and is
dubbed the LG Micro RGB evo. Like other RGB TVs including Samsungs Micro RGB TV that I saw in person , whose vivid picture clearly outshone many Mini-LED TVs with bolder, more refined colors the idea here is brighter output and better controlled local dimming for one of the best pictures possible.

Here, LGs first-ever Micro RGB TV swaps the traditional backlight LEDs found in most LCD sets for ultra-tiny red, green, and blue LEDs. These are controlled by the brand-new 11 AI Processor Gen 3, which offers more precise control over light and color delivery. As with other RGB sets, LG says this approach brings the TV closer to OLED-level control than traditional LCD
sets.

Essentially, its about merging high brightness with precision-level control for deeper blacks and a more immersive visual experience overall. The new backlights and processor are paired with what LG calls Micro Dimming Ultra, its term for the 1,000-plus local dimming zones found on the Micro RGB evo. Its not quite OLED where individual pixels can turn off completely for perfect blacks but it should get closer than most other LCD-based TVs.

For color, LG notes that the Micro RGB evo has been certified by Intertek for 100% color gamut coverage across BT.2020, DCI-P3, and Adobe RGB. Thats a
claim about the range of colors the TV can display, rather than a guarantee
of perfect out-of-the-box color accuracy.

Even so, thats a rare trifecta, and if LGs implementation is well-tuned something well be looking closely at when we see it in person the Micro RGB evo could end up among the best LCD TVs ever released.

The new-for-2026 11 AI Processor Gen 3 also introduces several features, including the ability to process two AI upscaling tracks simultaneously.
While many smart TVs have offered upscaling for several generations, LG promises this approach will boost sharpness without straying from natural-looking visuals.

Like other LG TVs, the Micro RGB evo ships with webOS, offering access to major streaming services and a range of AI-powered features, including a chatbot, Voice ID, and picture-quality enhancements. LG isnt first, but RGB

LG isnt the first brand to show off RGB TV technology Samsung and Hisense have already demonstrated it and sell TVs but the Micro RGB evo suggests the category is evolving quickly. LGs emphasis on a wider color gamut and tighter backlight control could give it a meaningful edge, particularly for HDR content.

Whats especially promising is how RGB TVs continue to close the gap between LCD and OLED. If LG can combine its wide color gamut claims with strong factory calibration and effective local dimming, this could become a compelling option for buyers who want massive screen sizes, high brightness, and fewer long-term risks than with OLED. The price will also be important, but LG isnt sharing that just yet, and competing RGB sets arent cheap.

That said, CES 2026 is shaping up to be a pivotal moment for next-generation TV tech. With other manufacturers expected to show off their own takes on Micro RGB, refined Mini-LED, and alternative backlight solutions, LGs Micro RGB evo likely wont be the only standout on the show floor. Well be watching closely to see how it stacks up and what other surprises emerge once CES kicks off.

The LG Micro RGB evo (model MRGB95) will launch in 75-inch, 86-inch, and 100-inch sizes later in 2026.
