Samsung unveiled the world's first Micro RGB TV last week. The 115-inch TV went on sale in South Korea for a staggering KRW 44.9 million (approximately $32,325), and is expected to launch in the USA soon. Hisense, however, already has a TV that rivals Samsung's Micro RGB TV, with a similarly scary price tag.
Hisense has now launched its 116UX TriChrome RGB Mini-LED TV in the USA with a $30,000 price tag. It is available for purchase from Best Buy and other select national retailers and authorised resellers. This TV is similar to how Samsung's Micro RGB TV works, as it also uses individually controlled RGB LEDs rather than blue or white-colored Mini LEDs as the backlight source. Both TVs have an anti-reflection coating to reduce glare.

The Hisense 116UX is a 116-inch TV with 4K resolution, LCD panel with RGB Mini-LED backlighting, a 165Hz variable refresh rate, up to 8,000 nits peak brightness, and up to 95% BT.2020 color space coverage. It supports HDR10, HDR10+, HLG, and Dolby Vision. It has a 110W 6.2.2-channel speaker setup with Dolby Atmos support. It runs Google TV and supports Alexa, Google Assistant, AirPlay 2, and Apple HomeKit.
Its remote controller is solar-powered, similar to Samsung's SolarCell Remote, and it even has a buzzer that you can use to find if it gets lost under your sofa seats.

In comparison, Samsung's Micro RGB TV has a 115-inch VA panel with RGB LED backlighting. From what the company claims, the RGB LED chips it uses are smaller and offer a more accurate control over the backlighting and local dimming, resulting in more accurate colors and almost negates the blooming effect that Mini-LED TVs generally suffer with.
It has a 144Hz variable refresh rate, AMD FreeSync Premium Pro, HDR10, HDR10+, and HLG. Samsung also claims a 100% BT.2020 color space coverage. It misses out on support for Dolby Vision, though, which is important for a lot of people. It has a 70W 6.2.2-channel speaker setup with Dolby Atmos audio and Q-Symphony.
It runs Tizen OS (with seven years of updates), AirPlay 2, Google Assistant, Bixby, Alexa, Art Mode, Art Store, SmartThings, Samsung Health, and Samsung Gaming Hub. It has a built-in Matter and SmartThings Hub controller. The TV comes bundled with a SolarCell Remote with a USB Type-C charging port.
