LG has confirmed that its new TV using RGB backlighting technology will come to Australia as part of the company’s 2026 range, alongside the latest flagship OLED TVs.
Known as the ‘Micro RGB evo’ TV, it originally debuted at CES 2026. Seeing the TV in person, LG’s take on RGB TVs made quite the impression. Its reds looked particularly deep, showing a deeper colour spectrum than traditional LED technology.
RGB TVs are an emerging category that uses tiny LED backlights comprised of red, green, and blue colours. Previous iterations of LED TVs relied on white backlights, with the screen applying the colour. According to LG, the combination of coloured backlights and screen processing should mean more colours and more accurate colours.
Specific to the new LG Micro RGB TV, it spans the full 100 per cent range of BT.2020, DCI-P3, and Adobe RGB gamuts. The first two are commonly used in filmmaking, while Adobe’s colour space is often used for photo editing and graphic design. So, in theory, you could use LG’s TV to watch movies and as an accurate PC monitor.
Joining the Micro RGB TV are several updates to LG’s QNED range, including the use of Mini LED backlights all the way through to the budget-friendly QNED70B model. Mini LED is known for being one of the brightest TV technologies, making it suited for glare-filled living rooms.
Absent from the details of LG’s local TV launch was any mention of the brand’s NanoCell range. Last year, the NanoCell LED TVs received a colour upgrade, getting closer to the full DCI-P3 spectrum. At this stage, it appears that QNED is LG’s primary low-cost offering, with the 43-inch QNED70B model starting at $749, the same starting price as 2025’s NanoCell TV.
