Samsung has revealed what it calls the "world's largest" Micro RGB LCD TV, the 130-inch R95H, at CES 2026 here in Las Vegas. The display tech promises better brightness and more saturated colors. 

While CES has seen its share of Micro RGB backlights this year, including from Samsung, the R95H is one of the largest at this year's show.

The R95H's use of Micro RGB LEDs means that it's potentially able to display more colors, and Samsung says it can achieve 100% of the HDR-ready BT.2020 wide color gamut.

The TV features an easel-like design borrowed from Samsung's own Timeless Gallery design, and the TV's sound is built into the frame itself.

The 130-inch model also includes Samsung's proprietary Glare-Free technology, which minimizes reflections in a similar way to the coatings used on models like the S95F and Frame Pro.

The R95H is a high-end TV, and it will not come cheap, but pricing and availability are still to be announced.
