New Samsung (and LG) OLED panels with RGB stripe subpixels

It’s nonetheless early days for CES 2026. However, some manufacturers wish to get forward of the wave of bulletins. Brands like Samsung, and to a larger extent, LG—prone to get forward of Samsung.

Both have introduced new OLED panels utilizing RGB stripe subpixel layouts. It sounds boring—and I assume it kinda is—however using a barely irregular subpixel format on OLED gaming screens results in some slight rendering points with OLED panels. By adopting a vertical stripe subpixel format, referred to as RGB stripe by LG and V-Stripe by Samsung, each firms are in a position to present panels that now not run into points with textual content.

Samsung has a 34-inch, 360 Hz QD-OLED panel ready to go using the new subpixel layout. Though you’ll want to look out for MSI, Asus, and Gigabyte models; these companies are first in line to actually use the panel in their products.

But, hey, we know that AMD’s roadmap mentions new Zen 6 processors coming this year on TSMC’s 2 nm process node, though likely later in the year, among other possible announcements.
