Micro RGB TVs vs OLED TVs — here's the TV I'd buy in 2026

A side-by-side composite of two images: On the left is the LG C2 OLED, wall-mounted and displaying a mountain in front of a galaxy-rich night sky. On the right is Samsung's Micro RGB TV, also wall-mounted, displaying a colorful, abstract image.

A good sign that newfangled TV tech is right around the corner is when there are several variations of a similar-sounding term flying around in every direction, such that it’s tough to keep track of what’s-what. We’re seeing that right now with Micro RGB technology — also known as RGB Mini-LED, True RGB, and of course, Micro RGB evo.

Samsung, Hisense, Sony and LG are each tinkering with their own variation of this RGB-based display technology. It’s the next step in the evolutionary line of Mini-LED TVs, and if several of the industry’s biggest brands are to be believed, it’s about to blow the lid on the whole dang business.
