The new set, which will be available in 85-, 86-, and 100-inch sizes, will be on display at CES in Las Vegas this January.

LG is getting serious about mini LEDs with its Micro RGB Evo, which the company says will establish a new state of the art for LED-backlit LCD TV color and processing.
The Micro RGB Evo uses mini LEDs for backlighting, which as you might guess, are smaller than older LEDs–so small these days that the industry has taken to referring to them as “micro” LEDs. Where mini-LEDs are generally considered to be 100 to 200 microns in size, micro-LEDs are less than 100 microns (that’s smaller than a grain of salt).
RGB, of course, simply means there are three of them–red, green, and blue–acting as subpixels to form every pixel. LG is renowned for using a fourth white subpixel to increase brightness in its OLED TVs, but there’s none of that here.
LG touts “OLED precision” which simply means they are using the same processor in the Micro RGB Evo featured in their OLED TVs. The CPU (Smart TVs are computers with a display, inputs, and a tuner) is monikered the Dual AI Engine-based α (Alpha) 11 AI.
Geez, how many times can you put AI in one name? Hear me now and believe me later: Most things mentioning AI don’t really have it. Certainly not a CPU. It simply has cores that are optimized for the operations that mimic AI.
Regardless, all that computing power allows for features such as Dual Super Upscaling (really good upscaling, in plain English), RGB Primary Color Ultra (vivid and accurate color that meets 100 percent of the color gamut in the BT.2020, DCI-P3, and Adobe RGB color space standards, ditto), and Micro Dimming Ultra (there are more than 1,000 dimming zones, same).
The Micro RGB Evo runs WebOS and will be available in 75-, 86-, and 100-inch screen sizes. Yup, no runts in this litter. Fill that wall!
We haven’t laid eyes on the Micro RGB Evo TV, but there’s no reason to believe that LG’s new mini-LED-backlit LCD TV shouldn’t be as fantastic (or more so) as any of the company’s other flagship LCD models.
I spend a lot of time giving the company grief for its gobbledygook marketing lingo, but it does make really good stuff.
