💡 Here’s what you’ll learn:

Cancel any outdoors LG plans for next year that LG will introduce its flagship RGB LED TV in 2026. The new MRGB95B TV will use an upgraded processor and a brighter panel, and will achieve 100 percent coverage of the BT.2020, DCI-P3 and Adobe RGB color gamut. Translation: Insanely accurate color. The most exciting part about this new model is that it will come in more ‘everyday’ screen sizes than one might expect, ranging from a massive 100-incher to a more normal modern size of 75-incher, meaning consumers may actually be buying this for their new luxury living room.

RGB LEDs allow for brighter displays with more accurate colors, not to be confused with mini LED displays, where each pixel is its own LED. RGB LED uses combinations of red, green, and blue that light up multiple pixels at once. It’s the next step in color accuracy in TV displays, following quantum dot displays that have been popular for several years. —Parker Hall

Samsung launches new Micro RGB TVs

Samsung is also getting into the new technology, with Micro RGB TVs that will range in size from 55 to 115 inches in 2026. The new models represent the smallest RGB LED screen sizes we’ve seen from any brand yet (although we expect competition from more affordable RGB players like Hisense and TCL).

Just like LG, Samsung is announcing the next generation of greatly improved AI chips for its new TV, and Samsung is also claiming that it reaches 100 percent of BT.2020, which again means very accurate colors. We’ll have to keep an eye on which brand does it better, but it’ll be exciting to see the next generation of TV technology finally hit store shelves in 2026. Let the South Korean brand battle begin. —Parker Hall

Google adds Find Hub to Wear OS

It wasn’t long until Google completely redesigned its device tracking app to more closely align with Apple’s Find My app. Now, the next step is to offer it on more platforms. The company brought the Find Hub app to Wear OS this week, allowing anyone using a Wear OS smartwatch to launch the app and see where their device last appeared.

This isn’t a half-baked version: you can track your device via Google Maps right from the watch, play a sound to ping its location, lock the device, and even perform a factory reset. You’ll only need a cellular version of the smartwatch to make the most of this capability, especially if you lose your phone.

Nvidia may reduce GPU supplies to consumers in 2026

Memory shortages loom in 2026, and we’re all bracing for the impact in terms of just how wide-ranging the impacts will be. For example, the prices of some of the best graphics cards have remained stable so far. But will it last? A new report suggests that this global memory crunch could impact Nvidia’s supply of graphics cards in 2026. A rumor published by Taiwanese tech site Benchlife claims that Nvidia will cut current-generation RTX 50 series graphics cards by up to 40 percent in the first half of next year. This reduction was based on a direct comparison to available supplies of Nvidia GPUs in the first half of 2025.

Although I don’t consider this to be anything more than a rumor at this point, it seems increasingly likely given the circumstances. Nvidia was originally rumored to launch a mid-generation refresh for the RTX 50 series (commonly known as the “Super” line) in early 2026, but the latest reports suggest late 2026 is now more likely.
