Quick Facts
On May 26, 2026, Samsung India pulled the covers off what is unquestionably its biggest domestic TV launch in years. Seventy-two models spread across six display categories — and sitting right at the top of the pile is a technology India has never seen from Samsung before: Micro RGB. The company, which has held the global number-one TV spot for 20 straight years, is clearly not content with defending that position. It wants to stretch it.
This is the 2026 Vision AI TV lineup, and on paper it covers almost every realistic price point from ₹36,990 right up to the high-end Micro RGB territory starting at ₹1,24,990. That range matters in India, where the TV market is deeply price-stratified. But the real story isn't the breadth. It's what Samsung has built into every category — an AI layer, called Vision AI Companion, that runs on Bixby, Microsoft Copilot, and Perplexity simultaneously.
Why this launch matters: Samsung is introducing Micro RGB — a fundamentally different approach to display backlighting — in India for the first time, alongside the widest AI feature expansion it has attempted across any single product cycle. All 4K-and-above models now carry Vision AI Companion (VAC), putting a triple AI stack in the hands of mainstream buyers, not just flagship shoppers.
Samsung 2026 TV Lineup: Prices at a Glance
Here's where each category starts. Note these are base prices; specific sizes and configurations will vary.
Micro RGB: Samsung's New Flagship Display Technology Explained
Micro RGB is the headline of this launch. Traditional LED TVs illuminate the screen using a white backlight, then pass that light through colour filters to produce the final image. It's a system that works well, but it has always been a compromise — especially where colour purity and brightness control are concerned.
Samsung's Micro RGB approach replaces that white backlight with individually controlled red, green, and blue micro LEDs. Because the colour is generated at the source rather than filtered downstream, the TV can achieve more accurate hues, significantly finer brightness control, and deeper contrast without the light-bleed artefacts that can affect conventional LED sets. Samsung is also backing it with BT.2020 colour coverage on these models — one of the widest colour gamut standards available for consumer displays.
The 2026 Micro RGB lineup includes two series — the R95H and R85H — in six screen sizes: 55, 65, 75, 85, 100, and 115 inches. Samsung has clearly designed this range for buyers who want the largest, most immersive screen possible, which explains why the smallest option is 55 inches.
Micro RGB AI Features
The picture engine here goes beyond hardware. Samsung has added a dedicated Micro RGB AI Engine Pro that fine-tunes colour, motion, and depth in real time. Sitting alongside it is Micro RGB Colour Booster Pro and RGB HDR Pro, both of which analyse content scene by scene to adjust colour and contrast dynamically. Glare reduction technology is also built in — practical for living rooms that face windows or tend to be brightly lit during the day.
OLED 2026: Anti-Reflection Goes Mainstream
Samsung's OLED range has quietly become more interesting this year. The lineup covers three series — S95H, S90H, and S85H — and the most notable change is that glare-free display technology now covers more than just the top-tier S95H. Both the S95H and S90H now include anti-reflection support, which means the picture-quality benefits that were previously limited to the most expensive model are filtering down the range.
The flagship S95H also brings Pantone-validated colour tuning, access to Samsung's Art Store library, and a new FloatLayer chassis design. For gaming, the OLED range supports refresh rates of up to 165Hz, AMD FreeSync Premium Pro, and NVIDIA G-SYNC compatibility — a combination that puts it on solid footing against rival gaming monitors at similar price points. The AI Soccer Mode, which automatically adjusts picture and sound during football matches, is now available across the full OLED range.
The Frame 2026: Art Mode Gets Smarter
The Frame continues to target buyers who want their TV to disappear into the room when it's not being used for video content. The 2026 LS03H uses QLED display technology with Pantone-validated ArtfulColor processing and Samsung's glare-reduction treatment — both aimed at making the on-screen artwork look closer to how it would appear printed or framed on a physical wall.
Art Mode now offers access to over 3,000 curated artworks. Vision AI Companion is fully integrated, so content recommendations and contextual assistance work here just as they do on the rest of the lineup.
Neo QLED 2026: Quantum Mini LED for the Mid-Range
The QN80H and QN70H bring Quantum Mini LED technology and the NQ4 AI Processor to the mid-range bracket. The NQ4 handles picture and sound optimisation through Samsung's AI framework, and the lineup supports 4K AI upscaling alongside 144Hz refresh rates on select models. Vision AI Companion runs across the entire Neo QLED range, surfacing contextual on-screen information while you watch.
Mini LED 2026: AI Features at More Accessible Prices
The M80H and M70H are where Samsung is pushing AI-based features into more affordable territory. The NQ4 AI Gen2 processor powers AI Sound Controller, which adjusts dialogue, background music, and sound effects in real time based on scene analysis. Motion Xcelerator 144Hz handles the smooth-motion side for fast content and gaming.
UHD 2026: Entry-Level, Starting at ₹36,990
The UHD range rounds out the lineup at the most accessible price point. These models sit outside the Vision AI Companion bracket (which covers 4K-and-above sets) but include Samsung's standard picture processing and smart TV functionality. For buyers who simply need a reliable large-screen TV without the premium AI features, the UHD range offers that entry point from ₹36,990.

Vision AI Companion (VAC): Three Assistants, One Remote
Every 4K and above Samsung TV in the 2026 lineup ships with Vision AI Companion. This is not a single assistant with a new name — it's Bixby, Microsoft Copilot, and Perplexity all running within the same interface. In practical terms, that means you can ask your TV a conversational question and get results powered by whichever of the three handles it best, without switching modes or apps.
Samsung has built in multilingual support and local content integration specifically for the Indian market. The platform is designed to surface recommendations based on viewing habits, provide contextual information while you're watching (think on-screen facts about a documentary you're viewing), and assist with general queries without leaving the TV interface.
AI Upscaling Pro
Analyses and enhances lower-resolution content in real time, improving detail, depth, and contrast.
Color Booster Pro
Categorises scenes to deliver more vivid, lifelike colour output dynamically adjusted per shot.

What is Samsung Micro RGB TV technology?
Instead of a conventional white LED backlight filtered through colour layers, Micro RGB uses individually controlled red, green, and blue micro LEDs to generate colour directly. This delivers more precise brightness control, wider colour accuracy (BT.2020 coverage), and improved contrast. The 2026 India range covers the R95H and R85H series in 55" to 115" sizes.
What is Vision AI Companion (VAC)?
VAC is Samsung's unified AI assistant platform built into all 4K-and-above models in the 2026 lineup. It runs Bixby, Microsoft Copilot, and Perplexity in a single interface, offering personalised content recommendations, contextual on-screen information, and multilingual support tailored for Indian users.
What screen sizes are available for Samsung Micro RGB TVs in India?
The 2026 Micro RGB lineup is available in six sizes: 55, 65, 75, 85, 100, and 115 inches, across the R95H and R85H model series.
How is Samsung's 2026 OLED range different from 2025?
The biggest change is the expansion of anti-reflection (glare-free) display technology. In 2025, this was limited to the flagship S95 series. In 2026, both the S95H and S90H include anti-reflection support, which extends the feature to a broader segment of buyers. The S95H also gains Pantone-validated colour tuning and a new FloatLayer design.
Where can I buy Samsung 2026 Vision AI TVs in India?
The full lineup is available at Samsung retail stores, Samsung.com, and authorised online and offline retail partners across India. The launch was announced on May 26, 2026, with immediate availability.
Bottom Line
Samsung's 2026 India TV launch is as broad as it gets. At one end, you have the Micro RGB range — a genuinely new display technology entering the Indian market for the first time, built for buyers who want the largest, most colour-accurate picture available in a consumer TV. At the other, a ₹36,990 UHD entry point that ensures even budget shoppers can step into the Samsung ecosystem.
The common thread running through all of it is Vision AI Companion. Folding Bixby, Copilot, and Perplexity into a single TV-native interface is a meaningful step beyond the usual voice-assistant bolt-on. Whether that translates into a genuinely useful experience day-to-day — especially in Indian homes with their particular content habits and language preferences — is something that reviews will reveal over time.
But on the numbers alone, 72 models, six display categories, and a new Micro RGB tier make this one of the more ambitious single-market TV launches Samsung has executed in recent memory.
