We are giving the Hisense 116UXS and 163MX flagship TVs the Best of CES 2026 Award for rethinking how the color science works in high-end displays. By expanding the traditional RGB spectrum, Hisense is fixing problems that have been around for a long time with digital color reproduction. The company’s answer is both simple and bold: add Cyan and Yellow subpixels to the mix. The “RGB MiniLED evo” system in the 116UXS makes it possible to get professional-level accuracy in the living room.
Hisense’s flagship display tech for the 116UXS & 163MX Smart TVs
Hisense’s flagship announcement at CES 2026 centers on a biological insight: the human eye is exceptionally sensitive to specific wavelengths that traditional three-color systems often miss. With this in mind. The 116UXS flagship introduces Cyan as a fourth primary color. The move aims to bridge the gap in the blue-green spectrum. This “RGB MiniLED evo” system produces remarkably smooth gradients and more natural skin tones. The result? Leave behind the artificial oversaturation that frequently plagues high-brightness displays. Basically, this Smart TV promises to deliver an image that feels more “analog” and lifelike.
For the ultra-luxury market, the 163MX takes this philosophy even further. This gargantuan 163-inch MicroLED display adds Yellow as a fourth color (RGBY). This extra subpixel fills a key spectral gap. It adds richness to warm tones and golden highlights that often appear flat on standard RGB panels. The 163MX is massive, but it still has a slim, wall-hugging shape. This lets owners fit in perfectly with high-end architectural settings.
Hisense is still working with Devialet to make sure that the sound quality is top-notch. The French audio experts tuned the built-in sound systems in both flagship models. They should come with a cinematic soundstage right out of the box, so you don’t need soundbars right away.
