00:002026 is already shaping up to be an exciting one for TVs. From super bright OLEDs to wild new RGB
00:06backlighting tech, this is the year your next TV might genuinely blow you away. Let's count down
00:12the coolest TVs that you should keep on your radar. Kicking things off with one of the most
00:19surprisingly impressive OLEDs that we previewed at CES 2026, the Samsung S95H. This is the
00:26successor to one of the best Samsung TVs ever, boosting brightness and refining picture that you
00:32love from QD OLED. What stands out? A glare-free matte screen that cuts reflections dramatically,
00:38great if your living room has, you know, big windows and natural lighting, and a stylish new
00:42metal bezel with an optional wireless One Connect box that adds up to four HDMI ports for support for
00:49eight total. It's not just about the looks here. The S95H is set to deliver deep blacks and vivid HDR
00:56performance, which is exactly what you want for movies, sports, and games.
01:02LG's G6 OLED is the 2026 flagship from the OLED King, and the only reason I didn't mention it first
01:09was because, like, duh, LG's flagship is always the best that it gets. Powered by a second-generation
01:14primary RGB tandem OLED panel with hyper-radiant color technology, LG is pushing brightness up roughly
01:2120% over its last-gen G5, also while retaining OLED's signature deep blacks and that wide color gamut.
01:28This should hopefully mean punchy HDR highlights and a more dynamic picture even in bright rooms,
01:34a key OLED weakness in the past. The G6 also throws in 4K 165Hz gaming support, VRR, ALM, and four
01:42HDMI 2.1
01:43ports, making this a killer pick both for your movies and next-gen gaming consoles.
01:51Then there's the LG C6 OLED, a step down. It uses a version of the primary RGB tandem OLED panel
01:58as well,
01:58but with a twist only on the larger 77 and 83-inch C6H models that are getting that upgraded panel
02:05for
02:06richer color and higher brightness. Smaller sizes should still benefit from OLED performance, excellent
02:12picture quality, but without the full-tech of the G6. Every C6 model gets the same Alpha 11 Gen 3
02:19processor, which improves upscaling and motion handling, and the TV supports four HDMI 2.1 ports.
02:25If you want OLED performance, that's a bit more approachable than the G6, but still excellent for
02:31movies and gaming. The C6 family is where it's at, especially if you go for one of the larger C6H
02:37screens.
02:40Now let's talk mini-LED. TCL's new X11L SQD mini-LED specifically. This flagship TV uses super
02:48quantum dot mini-LED tech to smash traditional LCD limits. Up to 10,000 nits peak brightness and 20,000
02:56local dimming zones for deep contrast and vivid HDR highlights. TCL claims full BT 2020 color coverage
03:03with better consistency and reduced color crosstalk compared to traditional or typical RGB mini-LEDs.
03:09What does that mean for you? Big brightness for daylight rooms, precise highlights in HDR movies,
03:15and fewer haloing artifacts around bright objects on dark backgrounds, things that LCD has historically
03:21struggled with. It also packs Dolby Vision 2.0, four HDMI 2.1 ports, and premium audio tune with Bang
03:28&
03:29Olufsen. This TV is actually available to order at the time of recording this video,
03:33so you don't even have to wait. I'll link it in the description.
03:39Now for something a little bit different. Hisense's 116 UXS RGB mini-LED blew us away at CES,
03:47and not just because of the size. Hisense's next-gen RGB mini-LED tech adds a cyan subpixel
03:53alongside the red, green, and blue. That means an expanded color gamut that exceeds 110% of BT 2020,
04:00allegedly delivering some of the richest, most vibrant LCD picture quality that we should see
04:06and that we definitely saw at the show. What that means for you is that the RGB mini-LED plus
04:11cyan backlighting should help with brightness, control, and color fidelity, and that made it
04:16one of the most visually stunning LCD TVs that I think I've ever seen.
04:24This video was me narrowing down premium TVs that we already know are coming this year and have
04:29already had the chance to see in person. You'll notice I didn't mention anything ultra-premium,
04:34I also didn't mention Sony, and that's because we won't hear about Sony TV plans until later in the
04:39year, maybe March or April, but we do know that Sony is going all-in on RGB TVs this year,
04:45so stay tuned.
04:46For now, these are the TVs that I know we're going to prioritize getting into our testing bench for
04:51full reviews, but it would help me a lot if you would let me know exactly what you want to
04:55see
04:55tested first, so be sure to sound off in the comments. Also, be sure to subscribe to the channel
