We've seen the world's first Micro RGB TV: the picture is so vivid and realistic it feels like you can touch it

Samsung is one of the most impressive technological giants in the world, with feats under its belt such as having launched one of the first foldable smartphones in history ( Galaxy Z Fold ) or, something I have recently discovered, building the largest building on our planet ( Burj Khalifa ) through its subsidiary Samsung C&T Corporation.

A few months ago , the new Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge also stole the show , one of the pioneers in the emerging category of ultra-thin mobile phones that, after its arrival in Spain, we were able to test at 20bits .

Now, at IFA, the major consumer technology fair held in Berlin, the Korean technology company has shown off one of its latest and most impressive innovations: the world 's first Micro RGB TV.

Launched just three weeks ago in Korea, it's based on Samsung's proprietary Micro RGB technology, which arranges individually controlled red, green and blue RGB micro LEDs , each less than 100 µm in size—that's 1000 times smaller than a millimeter—in an ultra-fine pattern behind the panel.

And it's not just any panel: for now, the company will market this innovative television in 115 inches . Although the long-term goal is to bring this innovation to small screens as well , as has been the case with the rest of the technologies that manufacturers have managed to master.

How does Micro RGB technology work?

Unlike conventional backlighting, this architecture allows precise control of each red, green, and blue RGB LED . Why?

In conventional backlighting (such as that of a classic LED TV or even Mini LED), the white light from the back of the screen is usually generated by blue LEDs and yellow phosphors. This light is then filtered through color filters (red, green, blue) to create the image. The problem is that the light source is not independently controlled by color: the backlighting is global or, at best, segmented by zones ( local dimming ).

Imagine a television as a theater with spotlights illuminating the stage.

It's as if instead of having a white spotlight with colored paper in front of it, you had three light brushes directly painting each part of the image.

This way, colors look more vivid, blacks are darker, and details are much clearer , producing incredibly vivid images , with exceptional color accuracy and realism that, according to Samsung, has not been achieved until now.

Additionally, the TV is powered by Samsung’s Micro RGB AI Engine, which uses artificial intelligence to process both the picture and sound to enhance it: “It analyzes each frame in real time and automatically optimizes the color output for a more realistic and immersive picture ,” the company explains . Among other things, it recognizes scenes with dull color tones and intelligently enhances the colors across all content .

The display has, in fact, been certified by VDE , the German testing and certification body, for its ability to represent Micro RGB colors with outstanding accuracy. It also achieves 100% of the BT.2020 color gamut , the widest standard used in the audiovisual industry, ensuring faithful reproduction of tones in movies, series, and video games .

I was able to see it live at IFA and it is certainly overwhelming in the best possible sense, with an immersive capacity that is hypnotizing .

Goodbye to reflections

This panel not only reproduces the image colors with extremely high fidelity, it is also much more comfortable to look at . This is possible thanks to Glare Free , Samsung's patented anti -reflective technology . and UL certified ( Underwriters Laboratories ) that minimizes reflections from room lights, such as lamps, and even sunlight.

This type of panel is not only kinder to your eyes, but also allows for deep blacks, immersive contrast, and a sharper viewing experience in any environment.

AI at the touch of a remote control

The icing on the cake is artificial intelligence. This TV features Samsung Vision AI , a system that turns the screen into the smart hub of the home . As I mentioned before, thanks to its AI engine, the device automatically adjusts the image and sound according to the content and the lighting in the room, always ensuring the best results.

But it goes way beyond that: with features like Live Translate , it translates and subtitles conversations in real time; with Click to Search , it lets you get on-screen information without interrupting what you're viewing; and with Generative Wallpaper , it creates custom backgrounds from simple keywords. It's also compatible with SmartThings , detects pet barking when you're not home, and can even be controlled with gestures from a Galaxy Watch.

Vision AI also opens the door to a broader ecosystem, integrating external agents: Gemini, Microsoft Copilot , and Perplexity . All of this is easily managed from the remote control using natural voice commands, without the need to learn rigid commands.

Price and availability

Following its debut in Korea, Samsung's Micro RGB will launch in the United States, with plans to roll out globally in a variety of sizes .

According to the brand's roadmap , it will arrive in Spain by the end of 2025. However, it is not a product for the general public: in its initial 115-inch version, the price of this television will be 27,000 euros .
