Hisense Mini LED TV debuted at CES 2026, showcasing the 116UXS 4-color model and 163MX Micro LED display. At the International Consumer Electronics Show (CES 2026) held in Las Vegas, Hisense showcased its massive 116-inch LCD TV, the 116UXS. This new model features the innovative RGB MiniLED evo backlight system, which adds a cyan light source to the traditional red, green, and blue primary colors, creating a four-color display.
According to the company, this system can cover up to 110% of the BT.2020 wide color gamut, nearly reproducing all colors visible to the human eye in real life. Last year, Hisense launched the world’s first consumer-grade RGB Mini LED TV, the UX series. The new 116UXS flagship builds on that foundation, extending the color range further by incorporating cyan Mini LED chips.
Unlike conventional Mini LED backlights that only use red, green, and blue, Hisense has added a cyan chip between the green and blue chips. The company explains that the human eye is particularly sensitive to color variations in the cyan spectrum. By introducing a cyan light source, color transitions become smoother, tones more natural, and overall color switching more nuanced and realistic.
In actual viewing, the overall image saturation feels more controlled, colors exhibit greater depth, shadow details are clearer and smoother, and highlights remain bright and vivid. Whether watching HDR blockbuster films or everyday TV programs, viewers experience richer, more layered visuals.
The color gamut coverage has increased from 100% BT.2020 in the traditional RGB system to 110%, a full 10% improvement. This allows the display to render crystal-clear turquoise lagoons or the deep, mysterious violet hues of the aurora. The TV achieves a color control precision of 134-bit.
The 116UXS is also equipped with Hisense’s proprietary Hi-View AI RGB engine, which precisely controls tens of thousands of independent dimming zones to ensure accurate color reproduction in fast-moving scenes, bright highlights, and dark areas.
The design features a near-borderless full-screen display with a body thickness of only 4 cm. For audio, Hisense partnered with French speaker brand Devialet, incorporating the Devialet Opéra de Paris 6.2.2 audio system for an immersive, cinema-quality sound experience.
Hisense also announced plans to release a range of RGB Mini LED TVs in multiple sizes.
In addition to the flagship, Hisense unveiled the UR9 and UR8 series for the high-end market, both featuring three-color RGB Mini LED backlight technology. These second-generation RGB Mini LED models serve as upgrades to last year’s versions, designed to expand the technology across more sizes and price points, ranging from 55 to 100 inches.
The UR9 and UR8 series outperform competing high-end models in color performance, delivering richer, more accurate hues. Optimized for home environments, these TVs maintain true-to-life colors even in bright living rooms, offering stable and natural visuals whether watching sports, movies, or gaming.
Furthermore, Hisense introduced a groundbreaking display—the 163-inch Micro LED screen “163MX”—featuring a red, green, blue, and yellow (RGBY) subpixel structure. This is the first consumer-grade Micro LED display to incorporate yellow light into the pixel design.
As a next-generation self-emissive display technology, Micro LED forms pixels directly from micron-scale LED chips. Currently, Samsung, LG, and Sony mainly offer Micro LED products for commercial markets.
The 163MX’s core innovation lies in its unique RGBY four-color subpixel architecture. Each pixel consists of four independent light-emitting units—red, green, blue, and yellow—across a 4K resolution (3840×2160), resulting in approximately 33.17 million subpixels in total.
The newly added yellow Micro LED chip fills a long-standing color gap in the 500–600 nm wavelength range, a spectral zone that has traditionally been challenging for accurate color reproduction. By bridging this gap, the yellow light source delivers unprecedented realism and achieves color performance previously unattainable with standard Micro LED technology.
To manage the vast 163-inch display, Hisense developed advanced color management techniques to maintain uniform brightness and color across over 33 million subpixels. The result is full coverage of the BT.2020 wide color gamut, delivering unparalleled color accuracy on an ultra-large screen.
