Samsung used its CES 2026 First Look event in Las Vegas to showcase a 130-inch Micro RGB concept TV, a massive display that highlights the companys latest advances in display and AI processing technology.
The screen is so large that it is held by a metal frame that surrounds the display and allows for a slight tilt adjustment. Samsung described this stand as a reinvention of its earlier timeless gallery concept from 2013. In a separate demo, the company also showed the same 130-inch panel mounted directly on a wall.
Like LGs recent Micro RGB set, Samsungs concept uses an evolved form of Mini LED technology aimed at delivering higher color accuracy, richer contrast and greater brightness control. The company positioned the prototype as a demonstration of what its Micro RGB platform can do, rather than a product that will be sold in the near term.
Samsung did not share detailed specifications but emphasized its new processing stack, built around a Micro RGB AI Engine Pro chip. According to the company, this includes features branded as Micro RGB Color Booster Pro and Micro RGB HDR Pro, which use AI to enhance muted tones, refine contrast and reveal more subtle detail in both bright and dark areas of the image.
The concept TV also incorporates Samsungs Glare Free technology to limit reflections and supports HDR 10+ Advanced. Audio is handled through the integrated Eclipsa Audio system built into the frame, which means wall-mounting the gallery-style stand would require attaching the entire structure, not just the panel.
On the software side, the set can access Samsungs Vision AI Companion for conversational search, and it is designed to work with third-party AI assistants such as Microsoft Copilot and Perplexity.
Despite the show-floor attention, Samsung emphasized that this 130-inch Micro RGB TV is not planned for commercial release in its current form. Even last years 115-inch model, priced at around $30,000, remained a niche option for high-end buyers. For customers willing to spend significantly more, Samsung suggested that its Micro LED TVswhich start at roughly $110,000offer additional benefits closer to OLED, which Micro RGB does not match.
CES 2026 runs from January 4 to January 9 in Las Vegas, with major announcements from companies including Samsung, LG, Hisense, NVIDIA and Hyundai, alongside a wide range of AI and consumer electronics reveals across the show floor.
