- Samsung released the Micro RGB R95H television priced at $3,200 for the 65-inch model and $4,500 for the 75-inch version, positioning it in direct competition with LG’s Micro RGB Evo.
- Samsung’s R95H features a single pedestal foot that snaps into place in about 10 seconds, enabling quick setup and placement on smaller furniture despite the 65-inch model’s wide side overhang.
- LG offers its Micro RGB Evo starting at 75 inches for $4,500, giving it an edge in size availability and competitive picture quality over Samsung’s similarly priced 75-inch R95H.
- Samsung’s anti-glare technology on the R95H subdued the visual impact of movies and some video games, undermining the vibrant display expected from Micro RGB pixel technology.
- Micro RGB TVs use red, green, and blue pixels to produce more vibrant colors and better contrast than traditional LED or OLED sets, a standard the R95H meets only partially.
Why it matters: Samsung loses competitive ground to LG in the premium Micro RGB TV market despite matching its price at 75 inches, because it offers fewer size options and weaker picture performance—directly affecting consumers choosing between the two at a $4,500 price point.
