It\u2019s so large, it\u2019s suspended by a large metal stand that surrounds the entire screen,  which also lets you tilt the screen just a bit.

As I fought through the crowds of Samsung\u2019s CES First Look event to catch a glimpse of it, I couldn\u2019t help but notice how everyone just looked a bit stunned, like the monkeys from <em>2001<\/em>  seeing the monolith for the first time.<\/p>\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/d29szjachogqwa.cloudfront.net\/images\/user-uploaded\/Samsung_Micro_RGB-2.jpg\" data-crop-orig-src=\"https:\/\/d29szjachogqwa.cloudfront.net\/images\/user-uploaded\/Samsung_Micro_RGB-2.jpg\" alt=\"Samsung's 130-inch Micro RGB TV from the side.\" data-uuid=\"706563cd-8282-402b-a3ce-1f3fe7c35725\" \/><figcaption>Samsung&#8217;s 130-inch Micro RGB TV from the side.<\/figcaption><div class=\"photo-credit\">Devindra Hardawar for Engadget<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<p>Samsung representatives were clear that this Micro RGB set was only a concept of what the company could do with the technology, it\u2019s not an actual product it plans to ship. In another demo, Samsung took the 130-inch screen and mounted it directly on a wall (below). Of course, it still looked stunning. I also learned that if you wanted to wall mount the \u201ctimeless gallery\u201d stand concept, you actually have to mount the entire stand to the wall, since it\u2019s part of the TV\u2019s speaker system.<\/p>\n<p>Samsung didn\u2019t have too many details about the technical aspects of the 130-inch Micro RGB TV, but it did shout buzzwords at us during its announcement. it\u2019s powered by the company\u2019s \u201cMicro RGB AI Engine Pro\u201d processor, which includes \u201cMicro RGB Color Booster Pro\u201d and \u201cMicro RGB HDR Pro\u201d technology, using AI to \u201cenhance dull tones and refine contrast, delivering vivid color and subtle detail across bright and dark scenes alike for realism and picture fidelity.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/d29szjachogqwa.cloudfront.net\/images\/user-uploaded\/Samsung_Micro_RGB-4.jpg\" data-crop-orig-src=\"https:\/\/d29szjachogqwa.cloudfront.net\/images\/user-uploaded\/Samsung_Micro_RGB-4.jpg\" alt=\"Samsung's 130-inch Micro RGB TV mounted in a wall.\" data-uuid=\"f15f1a3b-0d6b-4489-8c32-c468fac6357f\" \/><figcaption>Samsung&#8217;s 130-inch Micro RGB TV mounted in a wall.<\/figcaption><div class=\"photo-credit\">Devindra Hardawar for Engadget<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<p>The Micro RGB set also sports the company\u2019s Glare Free technology to reduce reflections, and it supports HDR 10+ Advanced and the company\u2019s Eclipsa Audio. It can also tap into Samsung\u2019s Vision AI Companion for conversational search, as well as Microsoft Copilot and Perplexity.<\/p>\n<p>But of course, those details really don\u2019t matter, because you won\u2019t be able to buy the 130-inch Micro RGB TV in its current form. We were impressed by last year\u2019s 115-inch model, but its $30,000 price didn\u2019t make it feasible for anyone but the ultra-rich. And those folks would be better off investing in <a target=\"_blank\" class=\"link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.engadget.com\/a-110000-microled-tv-in-this-economy-144340352.html\" data-i13n=\"cpos:3;pos:1\">Samsung\u2019s own Micro LED sets<\/a>, which offer the benefits of OLED that Micro RGB does not.
