RGB MiniLED technology was introduced a year ago at CES 2025, but it had a much greater presence at CES 2026, with the top four global TV brands all showcasing products featuring the new technology. Each company had a different approach to the new technology, raising questions about which approach will be most successful.
Please note that we use the term RGB MiniLED to describe displays with red, green and blue LEDs independently driven in a backlight matrix driving an LCD screen. MiniLED means a backlight in our definition, while MicroLED means a direct-view display. Both Samsung and LG are labeling their products “MicroLED;” we will refer to these as branding efforts and not technology descriptions.
