LG 100-Inch Micro RGB evo AI MRGB96 4K Smart TV 2026 (International Version)

LG 100-Inch Micro RGB evo AI MRGB96 4K Smart TV 2026 (International Version) Overview

The MRGB96 is the flagship of LG's 2026 LCD line: a Micro RGB backlight of red, green and blue LEDs, certified by Intertek for 100% coverage of all three colour standards - BT.2020, DCI-P3 and Adobe RGB. Filling BT.2020 - the standard cinema is mastered against - is a first for an LCD TV. A 100-inch canvas driven by the Alpha 11 Gen3 processor with its dual AI engine: this is the set you build a private cinema around.

A 100-inch TV is not an ordinary purchase: the cabinet is 2.23m wide and 67.3 kg before the stand. There are things to measure before ordering - a dedicated section below walks through them.

Key Official Specifications

Micro RGB: the Colour Ceiling of LCD

Ordinary Mini LED makes white light from blue LEDs and quantum dots; LG's Mini RGB series turns the backlight itself into red, green and blue LEDs for double 100% colour certification. Micro RGB goes a step further - smaller three-colour LEDs under denser control, earning triple 100% certification, including BT.2020, a standard even many OLEDs cannot fill - certified by Intertek. Dimming is listed as Micro Dimming Ultra on the sheet; LG's newsroom states more than a thousand dimming zones, driven by the Alpha 11 Gen3 dual AI engine.

RGB backlighting is where the premium TV war is being fought in 2026, and both camps use the name - Samsung has a Micro RGB line too, which we covered in our Samsung R95H / R85H Micro RGB review; for the whole LG year, see our LG 2026 TV lineup guide.

Gaming: the Official Three Rows, Verbatim

The official sheet splits it into three rows: native 120Hz panel; VRR up to 165Hz; all four HDMI ports supporting 4K 120Hz, eARC, VRR, ALLM, QMS and QFT. In practice: PS5 and Xbox Series X run their full 4K 120Hz on any port; 165Hz is the VRR ceiling as LG writes it, with no further conditions listed - PC gamers chasing it should talk to us before ordering. Game Optimizer opens the Game Dashboard for frame rate and latency at a keypress; FreeSync and HGiG are on the sheet, and Motion Booster 330 is LG's listed motion-enhancement mode.

Dolby Vision + Atmos, 40W 2.2-Channel Audio

Dolby Vision, HDR10 and HLG are all supported, with Dynamic Tone Mapping Ultra adjusting scene by scene. The built-in system is 40W 2.2-channel with a woofer pair and the Alpha 11 AI Sound Pro virtual 11.1.2 up-mix - respectable for a TV, but honestly: a 100-inch picture deserves a proper sound system, so keep budget aside for a soundbar or AV setup.

Measure Four Things Before It Comes Home

This set is 2.23m wide and 67.3 kg before the stand, and over a hundred kilograms in its packaging. Before ordering, measure: 1) the lift door and cabin diagonal (if it will not fit, ask us about stairs or hoisting); 2) your doorway and corridor turns; 3) the TV cabinet - with-stand depth is 43.4cm, width 2.23m, and the stand offers two height positions (1372mm or 1324mm overall); 4) for wall mounting, the wall must carry 67.3 kg on a VESA 600 x 400 pattern - professional installation only. The safe move: photograph your lift and doorway measurements and WhatsApp them to us, and we confirm everything before delivery day.

Practical Information for Hong Kong Buyers

Delivery and installation: 100-inch follows the 98-inch rate: delivery with tabletop setup $1,500, or $2,000 with wall mounting (bracket included); free pickup at our Kwun Tong shop, which is collection-only with no demo units and no side-by-side viewing. Next-day delivery, the driver calls an hour ahead, no deliveries on Sundays and public holidays. Details on the delivery and installation page.

Warranty: international-version TVs carry a 10-day exchange plus 3-year on-site warranty (inspection and repair labour free; parts quoted first, work proceeds after you confirm) - terms on the warranty policy page. We can also take your old TV away on delivery (40-inch or larger, up to 10cm thick, non-CRT).

Local channels: Hong Kong licensed sets list DTMB on their spec sheets while international versions list DVB-T2 - they differ. We have tested reception of local free-to-air channels in Hong Kong ourselves, and our technicians tune the channels during installation; but if your building has weak aerial signal, or aerial TV is your main use, WhatsApp us before ordering. For more depth, see our TV signal and antenna guide.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the MRGB96 a 165Hz TV?

The official wording: native 120Hz panel, VRR up to 165Hz, and all four HDMI ports at 4K 120Hz. A PS5 runs 4K 120Hz without issue; 165Hz is the VRR ceiling as LG lists it, with no further conditions stated - PC gamers should confirm with us first.

How does Micro RGB differ from Mini RGB and Mini LED?

Ordinary Mini LED uses blue LEDs plus quantum dots; Mini RGB makes the backlight itself from three-colour LEDs (double 100% certification); Micro RGB uses smaller three-colour LEDs under denser control, earning triple 100% certification for BT.2020, DCI-P3 and Adobe RGB (Intertek).

Will a 100-inch TV fit my home?

The cabinet is 2.23m wide and 67.3 kg before the stand. Measure four things: the lift, the doorway and corridors, the TV cabinet (with-stand depth 43.4cm), and wall strength if mounting. Photograph the measurements and WhatsApp us - we confirm before delivery.

Does it have Dolby Vision?

Yes - Dolby Vision, HDR10 and HLG, with Dynamic Tone Mapping Ultra, and Dolby Atmos on the audio side.

At the 100-inch class we carry two other options: the LG QNED86 100-inch and the Samsung QN80F 100-inch, or browse the 98-inch-and-up collection. Specifications follow the LG Hong Kong official product page (100MRGB96BC); market versions can differ (the same series is named MRGB95 in the US) - the set in front of you is the reference.
