Best AI TVs in India 2026

A few years ago, a TV simply showed whatever content was sent to it, either by the connected media player or the set-top box. Today, AI works on the picture and sound before they reach the viewer. It sharpens an old HD broadcast so it holds itself up well on a 4K display, adjusts brightness as the afternoon sun moves across the living room, lifts dialogue when the pressure cooker starts whistling, and answers a question about the match without anyone reaching for a phone. The TV now adapts to the people watching it, instead of the other way round.

It’s hardly a surprise that Samsung, the biggest TV brand in the world for the last two decades, was a pioneer in this field too. In January 2018, it unveiled what it described as the world’s first 8K AI technology, using AI to upscale lower-resolution content on its 8K QLED TV. It has since spread AI across picture, sound, gaming, and the way people use their TVs, and its 2026 Vision AI line-up, launched in India in May with 72 models, brings all of this together.

Samsung Micro RGB R95H: the best AI TV available right now

Of all the TVs in the brand’s 2026 line-up, the Micro RGB R95H is the clearest example of what AI can do for a TV. Most LED TVs create colour by filtering white or blue light. The R95H instead uses micro-sized red, green, and blue LEDs, each no bigger than 100µm, as its light source, and its Micro RGB AI Engine Pro controls every one of them individually, fine-tuning colour, motion, and depth frame by frame. Because colour is shaped at the light itself, the R95H can be bright and precise at the same time.

Its credentials back that up. Micro RGB Precision Color 100 covers 100 per cent of the BT.2020 colour gamut, certified by VDE, which Samsung calls a world first, and the TV is PANTONE Validated for 2,140 PANTONE colours and 110 skin tones. A team jersey, a Diwali diya, or a familiar face keeps its true shade, the way it looks in real life. A UL-verified Glare Free screen keeps reflections from windows and tube lights in check, so the picture holds up in a bright living room at noon as well as at night. For long sessions, Eye Comfort Mode adjusts warmth and brightness after sunset, and the R95H carries VDE’s Safety for Eyes and Circadian Rhythm Display certifications.

Every AI feature on the R95H, explained

The AI Engine Pro looks after the picture, but AI on the R95H goes much further, into how the TV is used, how it sounds, and how it fits into the home.

Vision AI Companion

Vision AI Companion is the feature most viewers will notice first. A press of the AI button on the remote, or a spoken question, brings up answers in everyday language, shown on screen with related information, images, or videos. It brings Bixby, Perplexity, and Microsoft Copilot together, so the TV has several AI agents to draw on rather than a single assistant.

That makes small moments easier. A family that cannot agree on a film can ask for suggestions and scroll through the options together. Someone watching a cookery show can ask what to make for dinner, and a cricket fan can look up a player’s record by simply asking. Samsung pitches it as an entertainment companion that helps decide what to watch, eat, and listen to. It sits alongside Generative Wallpaper, which creates artwork for the screen, and Now Brief, which brings personalised updates to the TV.

AI Football Mode

Football moves quickly across a wide pitch. AI Football Mode analyses match scenes in real time and tunes both the picture and the sound, keeping the ball easier to track and giving the audio a stadium feel.

For fans who stay up for European league matches, it means no fiddling with settings before kick-off. If you’ve experiences the ball trail or the blur that comes during the fast-paced moments in a crucial match, you already know what we are talking about.

AI Sound Controller

Now this is one feature that almost works like magic. Broadcasts mix commentary, crowd noise, and music in a way that does not suit every viewer. AI Sound Controller Pro analyses dialogue, background music, and sound effects in real time and lets the viewer adjust their levels.

During a tense IPL chase, the commentary can go up and the crowd can come down, and in a film, dialogue can be brought forward without the background score drowning it out.

AI Picture Mode, AI Customization Mode, and Color Booster Pro

With Samsung’s AI Mode turned on, the R95H looks after the picture by itself. Its AI Optimised setting adjusts brightness and picture quality in real time to suit the light in the room.

AI Customization Mode recognises whether the screen is showing sport, a film, or general content, and applies the picture settings the viewer has chosen for each, so a match and a movie each get their own look automatically. Micro RGB Color Booster Pro then analyses every scene and fine-tunes colour and contrast, so a green pitch, a sunset, or a silk saree looks rich without looking artificial.

AI upscaling and motion handling

Much of what Indian homes watch is still not in 4K, from HD cricket feeds and set-top box channels to older films and online videos. For a Full HD source, a 4K TV has to create three of every four pixels itself, so upscaling decides whether the picture looks crisp or soft.

4K AI Upscaling Pro uses 128 neural networks to rebuild detail in lower-resolution content, AI Motion Enhancer Pro keeps fast action and scrolling text clear, and Auto HDR Remastering Pro can turn standard content into HDR once it is switched on.

AI Sound Mode: AI Optimisation and Active Voice Amplifier Pro

Sound gets the same intelligent treatment. In AI Mode, Adaptive Sound Pro studies the room and the audio in whatever is playing, then optimises the sound to match. Active Voice Amplifier Pro listens for background noise, from a ceiling fan to a busy kitchen, and lifts voices above it so dialogue stays clear.

The hardware gives these features plenty to work with: a 70W, 4.2.2-channel system with Dolby Atmos and Object Tracking Sound+, which moves sound with the action on screen, plus Q-Symphony, which lets the TV’s speakers play together with a compatible Samsung soundbar.

AI Gaming Optimizer

For gamers, AI Gaming Optimizer puts the R95H’s gaming tools under one control. It manages AI Auto Game Mode, which identifies the game being played and applies the best picture and sound settings for it, along with Game Motion Plus for smoother motion and AI Virtual Aim Point, which the TV switches on by itself when it detects a first-person shooter on a console.

The panel keeps pace, with up to 165Hz and VRR from a compatible PC, AMD FreeSync Premium Pro, ALLM, and HGiG.

SmartThings: gesture control, built-in hub, Pet Care, Family Care, and AI energy saving

The R95H also works as the centre of a connected home through SmartThings. Its built-in SmartThings hub, with Zigbee and Thread support, can link compatible smart lights, sensors, and plugs without a separate hub. With a Galaxy Watch, Universal Gestures turn the wrist into a remote: a wrist movement steers the cursor, a pinch selects, and a clenched fist goes back.

Family Care helps relatives keep an eye on elderly parents who live apart, based on activity from connected Samsung devices, and Pet Care keeps pet owners in the loop. Now Brief can bring these updates to the TV, from a parent’s daily activity to dog-walking information and the home’s energy use. AI Energy Mode adjusts the TV’s brightness to help manage power consumption, while Samsung Knox helps keep the TV and connected devices safe by blocking harmful apps and websites.

Why Samsung’s AI is a step ahead of other brands

Every major brand now sells an AI TV, but the AI does a different job on each. Here is where Samsung’s approach goes further.

• AI that controls the light source: LG’s α11 AI Processor 4K Gen3 drives self-lit OLED pixels, Sony’s XR Processor works with a True RGB backlight on the BRAVIA 7 II, and TCL’s AiPQ Pro runs a QD-Mini LED panel. Samsung’s Micro RGB AI Engine Pro controls the R95H’s individual red, green, and blue micro LEDs, which is how it delivers 100 per cent BT.2020 colour with the brightness of an LED TV. In a sunlit Indian living room, that brightness, backed by the Glare Free screen, matters more than the perfect blacks OLED is known for.
• More AI agents in one place: LG’s webOS 26 offers AI Search with Google Gemini and Microsoft Copilot, while Sony and TCL run Google TV. Vision AI Companion brings together Bixby, Perplexity, and Microsoft Copilot, and pairs them with on-screen answers and recommendations built into the TV itself.
• AI built for specific moments: Instead of relying on one general smart mode, the R95H has dedicated AI for football, for rebalancing commentary and crowd noise, and for console gaming, each tuned for its job.
• A TV that runs the home: A built-in SmartThings hub, Family Care, Pet Care, AI Energy Mode, and Knox security make the R95H useful to the whole household, well beyond watching shows.
• Updates that last longer: Samsung promises up to seven years of Tizen OS upgrades for its 2026 models, compared with up to five years of webOS upgrades from LG, so the R95H should keep gaining features into the 2030s.

Samsung Micro RGB R95H: available sizes and best buy prices

The R95H comes in 65, 75, and 85 inches. For those with a very large room, Samsung India also lists a 115-inch Micro RGB model, the 115MR95F, alongside it.

Prices are best buy prices at the time of writing and may change.

Frequently asked questions about AI TVs in India

Which is the best AI TV in India right now?

The Samsung Micro RGB R95H is the strongest all-round pick for 2026. It combines Micro RGB lighting controlled by the Micro RGB AI Engine Pro, VDE-certified 100 per cent BT.2020 colour, a UL-verified Glare Free screen, Vision AI Companion, and dedicated AI for sport, sound, and gaming, all backed by up to seven years of Tizen OS upgrades.

What is Vision AI Companion?

It is Samsung’s conversational AI for its 2026 TVs. It brings Bixby, Perplexity, and Microsoft Copilot together, answers questions on screen with related images and videos, and suggests what to watch, eat, or listen to. It opens with the AI button on the remote or by voice.

Does Samsung’s Micro RGB AI Engine Pro outperform LG’s Alpha 11 AI Processor?

The two are built for different panels. LG’s α11 AI Processor 4K Gen3 manages self-lit OLED pixels, while Samsung’s Micro RGB AI Engine Pro controls the R95H’s red, green, and blue micro LEDs and runs 4K AI Upscaling Pro on 128 neural networks. That lets the R95H combine 100 per cent BT.2020 colour with LED-level brightness, which gives it the advantage in bright rooms and with colourful content such as sport and animation.

Is Micro RGB better than OLED for Indian living rooms?

For rooms that get plenty of daylight, as many Indian homes do, Micro RGB has the edge. It offers the brightness of an LED TV, and the R95H adds a UL-verified Glare Free screen, so the picture stays clear even with the curtains open. OLED’s deep blacks are at their best in dark rooms.
