Hisense is bringing RGB Mini LED TV technology to the masses

Hisense is bringing RGB Mini LED TV technology to the masses

After much fanfare, RGB TV technology is about to arrive in Australia at a more affordable price point. Demoed at CES 2026 earlier this year, Hisense has confirmed exactly how much its Mini LED TVs will cost in Australia, and it’s good news for those keen to try a different type of TV.

As a quick refresher, RGB TV technology is being touted by various home entertainment brands as one of the next big things in display technology. Compared to traditional LED or Mini LED technology, which relies on a panel to translate white backlights into coloured images, RGB LEDs are made of clusters of red, blue, and green backlights, which are said to be capable of producing a wider colour spectrum.

That’s certainly the claim from Hisense, which says its UX, UR9, and UR8 RGB Mini LED TVs cover as much as 100 per cent of the BT.2020 gamut. It’s a colour profile increasingly used across 4K and 8K content, including a wider range of colours than the DCI-P3 gamut.

Prices start at $2,299 for Hisense’s RGB Mini LED TVs, specifically the 55-inch UR8 model. It’s a sign that RGB technology is about to become more mainstream, and not something restricted to early adopters with loads of disposable income. These TVs are set to arrive starting this month through to July, culminating in a large 100-inch variant.

Aside from the colour representation, Hisense’s UR8 and UR9 TVs are suited to gaming, coming with 180Hz refresh rate support, along with Dolby Vision IQ and IMAX Enhanced HDR formats.

Down the line, this year’s base U6 and U7 Mini LED models are slightly cheaper than last year’s TVs. For example, last year’s 65-inch U7QAU TV cost $2,399 at full retail price. This year’s equivalent costs $2,199. Big-screen enthusiasts are set to benefit the most, with the 100-inch model costing $1,000 less year-on-year.
