At CES 2026, Hisense is presenting a clear vision of where ultra-large home displays are headed with the debut of the 163MX, a massive 163-inch MicroLED TV built around an industry-first four-primary RGBY color architecture. Recognized with a CES 2026 Best of Innovation Award, the 163MX serves as a technology showcase rather than a near-term mass-market product, highlighting Hisense’s long-term investment in color science and self-emissive displays.
The 163MX builds directly on the foundation set by the 136MX MicroLED TV, which Hisense unveiled at CES 2025. That earlier model marked the company’s first significant step into true MicroLED for the home and was later named a recipient of Ubergizmo’s Best of CES 2025 Award.

What differentiates the new 163MX MicroLED TV is its RGBY (Red, Green, Blue, Yellow) sub-pixel structure. By adding a dedicated yellow primary, Hisense addresses a known weakness in conventional RGB displays within the 500–600 nm wavelength range, where warm tones and mid-colors are often compressed or muted. According to the company, this allows for more accurate warmth, smoother gradients, and creator-true color reproduction, particularly in natural materials, skin tones, and cinematic lighting.
Technically, the TV manages color and brightness across 33.17 million self-emissive subpixels, enabling up to 100% BT.2020 color coverage while preserving uniformity across its enormous 163-inch surface. Despite its scale, the 163MX maintains a slim 32 mm profile with a zero-gap wall mount, reinforcing its positioning as a premium architectural display.
With the 163MX, Hisense is not simply increasing screen size. It is using MicroLED TV technology to explore how multi-primary color systems could shape the next generation of large-format home cinema.
