Hisense’s 116-Inch MiniLED TV Gets Cyan Pixel for Even More Colors
Hisense revealed a new RGB MiniLED TV at CES 2026, the 116-inch 116UXS, which promises to expand color palettes by adding a fourth cyan pixel.
The company calls the four-color MiniLED backlight “RGB evo,” and the TV’s release follows Hisense’s. three-Mini color LED, like last year 116UX and the new UR8 and UR9 televisions.
The 116UXS features “tens of thousands of color gradation zones” and promises to reproduce up to 110% of the BT.2020 color spectrum – a feat most TVs aren’t able to achieve. A company representative told CNET that adding the cyan pixel also reduces blue light emissions by up to 90 percent.
The TV features a slim bezel and a panel thickness of 1.57 inches, while the onboard sound is handled by a Devialet Opéra de Paris 6.2.2 audio system.
TV makers have already experimented with four-color palettes, including Sharp, with its Quattron technology. In my review of the Sharp Quattron LC46LE820X, I found that adding a yellow pixel pushed some blues toward cyan, making the color balance unnatural. It would be interesting to see how Hisense’s cyan pixel affects color reproduction in bench testing.
