MicroLED technology has been one of the more compelling innovations in the display world in recent years. But let’s be honest — MicroLED has always felt more like a commercial concept than something you’d actually have in your living room, and the cost to manufacture-slash-sell simply isn’t consumer friendly. Yet, Hisense is introducing the 136MX MicroLED specifically as the brand’s first-ever consumer-ready MicroLED display.
The 136MX is part of Hisense’s incoming CES 2025 lineup announcements, but I received an early look at the towering TV when I visited the company’s HQ in Qingdao, China late last year. Planting a flag in the ultra-premium sector is an interesting move for a company known for its value-centric offerings, but one that tells me we could see a shift in how MicroLED displays are understood from your average shopper’s standpoint.
