Hisense's mega 116-inch RGB Mini-LED TV has a mammoth price tag
What's happened? There's a new mega-TV on the block in the form of the 116-inch Hisense UX RGB Mini-LED TV. It's the future of TV technology, and a potential 'OLED killer'. And while it's not quite on sale just yet, we now know how much it will set you back. This is important because: Hisense is the first in the world to mass produce a RGB Mini-LED TV, setting a new benchmark for the screen technology. The image quality of the Hisense UX should be brilliantly bright, colorful and bold. Instead of using only white LEDs and a color filter as a light source, RGB Mini-LED TVs use red, green and blue Mini-LEDs to produce more accurate color and contrast. The set boasts a peak brightness of 8,000 nits, and Hisense says it offers 'industry-leading color coverage of up to 95% BT.2020'. The 116UX runs Google TV, giving you easy access to streaming apps such as Netflix, Prime Video and YouTube. Recommended Videos Why should I care? RBG Mini-LED TVs are the next big thing in the world of televisions, with the potential to topple OLED as the go-to screen type for the best TVs of the future. Sony gave us a sneak peek at its RGB Mini-LED TV prototype earlier this year, which led to us declaring 'if there was ever going to be an OLED killer — at least in the premium TV space — this is it. It's a game-changer.' Now we're past the prototype phase, with Hisense primed to deliver the first RGB Mini-LED set to consumers around the world very soon, with availability in the US. Ok, what's next? It's probably time to start saving. New technology rarely comes cheap, and the Hisense UX is no exception with Best Buy currently listing the set at a staggering $29,999. It's not in stock just yet, but we expect it to be available in next couple of months. Looking further ahead, the introduction of the Hisense UX signals the start of a new wave of TVs. As the likes of LG, Samsung and Sony launch rival products, we'll see a reduction in screen size and price as the technology is refined and manufacturing made more efficient, allowing for a reduction in costs across the board.

4K at 240Hz is 'no longer a future concept' — Lenovo exec says the future of gaming monitors is already shifting
With new GPUs, gaming monitors always take an evolutionary step forward — that much was obvious with the launch of Nvidia's RTX 50-series cards and the adoption of 4K 240Hz panels. But what if I told you that gaming panels are evolving even further beyond this? I spoke to George Toh, Vice President and GM of the Visuals Business at Lenovo, and while some of these future trends are clear to see (OLED gaming monitors, for example), some surprised me. A simple one being that gamers are done tweaking settings, and that displays should adapt to them with AI. Now, as a D1 settings tweaker myself, I felt a little personally attacked (sarcasm), but in all seriousness, this makes a world of sense — having a monitor that learns to adapt to you, and not just be the screen you have to work around to get just right. And then there's the question of catering to more ways that people play. Gaming handhelds like the Lenovo Legion Go S have exploded in popularity, and as gaming laptops go from strength to strength, the need for versatile portable gaming panels is going to grow stronger looking ahead. So, what does the future of gaming monitors look like? Well, this is what Lenovo thinks. Gamers today demand more than just speed or colors or brightness—they want immersion, precision and a visual experience that keeps pace with the speed of today's titles. As we look at the next generation of gaming monitors, both OLED and Mini LED will play critical roles in the evolution of gaming monitors. OLED continues to impress with its incredible contrast ratios, depth of color and fast response times, making it ideal for immersive single-player experiences and content consumption. Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips. Mini LED, on the other hand, offers high peak brightness and excellent HDR performance while mitigating some of the burn-in concerns associated with OLED, which is valuable for long hours of competitive play. One could make a case for either OLED or Mini LED, but based on industry shipments, we are currently seeing a preference for OLED gaming monitors. I believe we'll also see hybrid innovations — displays that integrate the strengths of multiple technologies — along with advances in panel control and pixel-level tuning. Whatever the technology is, the end goal is very simple: giving gamers more choice and more control over how they experience their games. Absolutely. As devices like the Legion Go 2 redefine what's possible in portable gaming, there's a growing demand for monitors that can match that flexibility without compromising performance. We're already seeing increased interest in lightweight, USB-C-powered displays that deliver high refresh rates and vibrant visuals — and this is just the beginning. I see hybrid and portable gaming monitors becoming a much more mainstream category, especially for gamers who want a secondary screen for on-the-go setups, LAN parties, or even creative work. We are constantly exploring ways to bring new experiences to life, and portable or hybrid gaming monitors will perfectly complement our broader Legion ecosystem. Balancing refresh rate and resolution is one of the biggest technical challenges and opportunities in the gaming display space right now. Gamers want the best of both worlds: incredibly sharp visuals and smooth gameplay, but factors such as economics often play a role. We're investing heavily in panels that can deliver both, as well as in technologies like VRR (variable refresh rate) and advanced overdrive tuning to ensure the experience lives up to the spec. We've also taken a holistic approach — pairing high-performance displays with GPU and thermal innovations across our Legion devices to make sure the full system can support high frame rates at high resolutions. 4K at 240Hz was novel before, but is no longer a future concept; it's something we're actively testing and optimizing for real-world gaming use cases. AI and software optimization are rapidly becoming foundational to the future of gaming displays. From dynamic backlight control to real-time upscaling and latency reduction, we're seeing smarter systems that adapt to the user, the content and even ambient lighting conditions. I'm particularly excited about how AI can personalize the visual experience — whether it's through auto-calibration, scene-based color tuning or adaptive refresh management. These aren't just enhancements — they're tools that let gamers focus more on their performance and immersion, and less on manual settings. We're already integrating AI capabilities into our Legion products, and you can expect to see even more intelligent display features in our upcoming lineup.

You don't even need to jump through any of the usual hoops to get this deal, either. That means that there are no on-screen coupons or discount codes needed. But you do need to be wary of the big red "limited time deal" badge on the product page -- we can't promise that this deal will stick around for long. In terms of specs, the first one you'll notice is, of course, that huge 85-inch display. It uses Mini-LED technology and sports a massive 1,000-nit peak brightness. It also offers support for HDR10 Plus, Dolby Vision IQ and Dolby Atmos, so all those good buzzwords are covered. Hey, did you know? CNET Deals texts are free, easy and save you money.

Because this TV is powered by Amazon's Fire TV software, you'll find all of your favorite steaming apps and services built right in. You'll still need to pay for your subscription, but you won't need to run the apps on a streaming stick or other device, at least. Why this deal matters You haven't lived until you've played your favorite game or enjoyed your most-loved movie on a big-screen TV, and they simply don't come much bigger than this Hisense 85-incher. Sure, it isn't a cheap TV, but it's much cheaper than usual. We just can't promise that it'll stay that way for long.
