The Samsung R95H is one of many TVs to arrive in 2026 that use RGB backlighting to create images. Similar to the Sony Bravia 7 II, along with new models from Hisense, TCL, and LG, these replace the standard white or blue mini-LED modules in an LCD TVâs backlight array with micro-sized red, green and blue LEDs that can be independently controlled. The main benefit to RGB backlighting is expanded BT.2020 color space coverage, though there are other advantages, such as minimized backlight blooming and improved off-axis picture uniformity.
Samsung calls its take on the tech Micro RGB, and the Samsung R95H is its flagship Micro RGB model for 2026. Back in April, I had an opportunity to do hands-on testing of a pre-release 65-inch R95H at Samsungâs New Jersey headquarters, but the company later sent us a 65-inch production version so we could do a complete review.
What is it?
The Samsung R95H is the top model in the companyâs Micro RGB TV lineup, sitting above the Samsung R85H series. For 2026, Samsung also offers new Neo QLED models that use a standard mini-LED backlight, and its 2025 flagship Samsung QN90F Mini LED series carries over as well. Samsung R95H series TVs are available in 65, 75, and 85-inch screen sizes. Launch prices were $3,199.99, $4,499.99, and $6,499.99, respectively, though they have since dropped to $2,999.99, $4,299.99 and $5,999.99 (all MSRP; check retailers for current pricing).Â
Along with RGB backlighting, R95H series TVs include a Glare Free screen similar to the one found in the companyâs 2025 flagship mini-LED and OLED models and the new Samsung S95H OLED TV. This provides a light-diffusing matte finish thatâs very effective in eliminating screen reflections even when viewing in bright rooms with multiple lighting sources.
