Samsung has unveiled breakthrough micro scale RGB backlight technology at IFA 2025 in Berlin that will set a new benchmark for colour accuracy, contrast and picture quality.
Samsung’s micro RGB arranges controlled red, green and blue micro RGB LEDs.
Each is less than 0.1mm in size and form an ultrafine pattern behind the panel.
Unlike a regular Mini LED, Micro RGB is creating colour at the backlight level and so there is no need for a quantum dot filter because each red, green and blue RGB LED can be precision controlled.
We looked at the new 115-inch micro RGB display for ourselves at IFA 2025 and the colour was simply stunning. It was noticeably sharper, clear and natural.
“Micro RGB achieves new levels of precision for controlling micrometer-sized RGB LEDs, raising the bar for colour accuracy and contrast in LED consumer displays,” said Taeyong Son, Executive Vice President and Head of the R&D Team of the Visual Display (VD) Business at Samsung Electronics.
“With this launch, we’re setting the standard in the large-sized, ultra-premium TV market and reinforcing our commitment to next-generation display innovation.”
The micro RGB is powered by Samsung’s micro RGB AI Engine which fully optimises picture and sound in real time by analysing each frame and automatically optimising the colour output to create a more lifelike result.
With the AI engine, micro RGB Colour Booster Pro can recognise scenes with dull colour tones and intentionally enhance the colour across all content for a sharper and more vivid viewing experience.
And the colour is so precise and vivid that it achieves 100% colour coverage of the BT 2020 colour scale
Samsung has confirmed the 115-inch micro RGB display will be released in Australia alongside the other TVs in the 2025 AV range in the coming months.
Also announced by Samsung at IFA 2025 was Vision AI Companion – the next evolution in AI powered TVs and displays across compatible Samsung TVs and monitors.
It utilises a smarter Bixby Voice Assistant and delivers a more natural and conversational interaction as it integrates into Samsung’s advanced AI features to deliver a singular and intuitive AI experience to discover content and receive contextualised answers.
Vision AI companion will be available on eligible 2025 Samsung smart TVs in Australia in the coming months.
“At Samsung, we’re investing in technology that makes experiences more personal, more intuitive, and built for the future,” said Kevin Lee, Executive Vice President of the Customer Experience Team at the Visual Display Business of Samsung Electronics. “With Vision AI Companion, we are redefining what a TV can do, going beyond picture quality and sound to deliver an experience that understands you, interacts with you and evolves with you over time.”
