My favorite part of CES isn’t the laptops or smart home gadgets. It’s the TVs. CES is basically Disneyland for display tech, and CES 2026 turned the Las Vegas show floor into a gallery of beautiful screens from the big players. As always, the CES 2026 TV lineup includes futuristic pieces, while others are shockingly realistic upgrades you’ll want in your living room. These are the ones that genuinely wowed me.

This year’s TV buzzword is RGB Mini in all its flavors. Meanwhile, head-turning models like LG’s W6 Wallpaper TV and Samsung’s Moving Style show just how far brands are pushing home entertainment in 2026.

Without further ado, here are my picks for the best TVs at CES 2026.

CES 2026 Micro RGB TVs

Hisense 116 UXS RGB MiniLED TV

Nearly a year after introducing the first consumer model with this tech, Hisense hit CES 2026 with a new flagship, the 116UXS RGB MiniLED TV. Using RGB MiniLED evo with a fourth cyan layer. That extra cyan may sound nerdy, but the result isn’t: smoother gradients, more natural mid-tones, and richer color depth without that overly “cranked saturation” look. It’s made for people who watch everything—sports, movies, streaming.

Hisense UR8 and UR9

What really impresses me is how quickly Hisense is scaling this tech downward. The UR8 and UR9 series bring second-generation RGB MiniLED to sizes from 55 to 100 inches. It essentially gives mainstream buyers access to the same color magic. These models are built for real-world living rooms. And the promise is stable color, clean motion, and games that don’t smear or wash out. Add in Devialet-tuned audio and slim, modern designs, and it feels like Hisense is pushing the big names hard.

The takeaway? Hisense isn’t just experimenting with RGB MiniLED — it’s building an entire ecosystem around it. From the flagship 116UXS to the more accessible UR8 and UR9, the CES 2026 TV lineup shows a brand moving faster than its competitors to make advanced color tech widely available.

Samsung 130-inch Micro RGB TV (prototype)

If there’s one TV at CES 2026 that feels like it wants to replace your projector, it’s Samsung’s massive 130-inch Micro RGB prototype. It’s pure spectacle: vivid color that hits full BT.2020 coverage, incredible brightness control, and Samsung’s new “Timeless Frame” design that makes the whole thing look like a giant digital canvas.

You can’t buy the 130-inch model this year—it’s a prototype—but it serves as a preview of what’s coming. The same Micro RGB platform will power Samsung’s upcoming R95H-series sets in more practical sizes.

CES 2026 TV Lineup: OLED TVs

Samsung OLED S95H

Samsung’s new OLED S95H is one of those TVs you stop and stare at when you walk past it — and not just because of the picture. This CES Innovation Awards 2026 honoree has a super-slim, borderless design that hangs on the wall like a work of art.

As the follow-up to last year’s award-winning S95F, the S95H pushes brightness substantially higher. Samsung claims roughly a one-third increase thanks to a more efficient QD-OLED panel. With its combination of gallery-style design and boosted performance, the S95H is especially appealing for movie buffs who don’t have a perfectly dark home theater.

LG OLED C6H

The LG OLED C6H is the C-series model I’ve been waiting for. For the first time, LG brings a tandem OLED panel to its wildly popular mid-range line, which pushes the C6H into “almost-flagship” territory. Available in 77- and 83-inch sizes, this upgraded panel drives a massive jump in brightness. LG says it can match last year’s G5.

What makes it exciting is how it repositions the C-series overall. The standard C6 models stick with conventional OLED panels in the smaller sizes. However, the C6H breaks away with better brightness and overall performance, while still offering the C-series price/performance sweet spot.

Best Futuristic TVs of CES 2026

LG OLED evo W6 Wallpaper TV

The LG OLED evo W6 revives the brand’s “Wallpaper TV” concept, delivering a screen so slim it practically melts into the wall. Measuring in at just millimeters thick and mounted completely flush, it’s more like digital décor than a traditional theater. Thanks to LG’s True Wireless system, all ports and connections live in a separate box that can sit across the room.

Powered by the latest α11 AI Processor Gen 3, the W6 delivers sharper upscaling, smarter image tuning, and ultra-smooth motion with refresh rates up to 165 Hz. Add LG Gallery+ to turn the screen into curated artwork or personal photos, and the W6 becomes a statement piece that doubles as the most elegant TV in the CES 2026 TV lineup.

Samsung MovingStyle TV

Samsung’s MovingStyle TV literally rolls with you. This updated portable TV features a 27-inch touchscreen and a detachable design you can move from the living room to the kitchen, the balcony, or wherever you’re hanging out. Meanwhile, a 3-hour battery life ensures it can outlast most movies.

What really sets it apart in the CES 2026 TV lineup is Samsung’s new Vision AI Companion (VAC). This AI assistant helps you decide what to watch, what to listen to, and even what to cook based on what’s on-screen. It solves a simple problem: sometimes you want the TV to come to you, not the other way around.

TCL X11L SQD-Mini LED TV

TCL’s big spotlight at CES 2026 is on the X11L SQD-Mini LED. It’s easy to see why. This premium set skips RGB backlighting in favor of blue LEDs paired with TCL’s quantum dots and a new color filter. The result is outrageous brightness claims of up to 10,000 nits, as many as 20,000 local dimming zones, and full BT.2020 color coverage.

In real viewing, that tech translates to intense color, impressive contrast, and noticeably controlled blooming even in challenging scenes. It’s very much a showcase product: pricing starts at $6,999.99 for 75 inches, but the X11L clearly signals where TCL wants to push mini-LED performance next.

Where CES 2026 TVs are Headed Next

The CES 2026 TV lineup makes one thing clear: display tech is moving fast, and it’s not just about resolution anymore. Brands are doubling down on brightness, color accuracy, AI processing, and bold form.

The best TVs on the show floor this year are products you can actually imagine in your living room. I can’t wait to see which of these models becomes the one everyone is talking about by the end of the year.
