CES 2026 Breakthrough: HKC Group Unveils World’s First RGB MiniLED Monitor – A New Era for Displays?

At CES 2026, while the spotlight chased familiar giants, one of the most genuine moments of surprise came from HKC Group — a Chinese manufacturer long respected in Asia for delivering impressive performance at realistic prices.

The booth was constantly crowded. Attendees lined up to see the M10 Ultra, the world’s first consumer monitor powered by true RGB MiniLED technology. And after watching the demos, many walked away convinced this could be one of the most important display innovations of the decade.

Traditional MiniLED backlights still rely on blue LEDs plus phosphor conversion — a method that works, but introduces color impurities and efficiency losses. HKC’s approach is radically different: each backlight zone uses independent red, green, and blue micro-emitters. The result is native tricolor light emission — dramatically purer colors, higher optical efficiency, and — crucially — full 100% coverage of the BT.2020 color space, a standard that remains a serious challenge for most premium monitors even in 2026.

The 31.5-inch 4K M10 Ultra combines this breakthrough backlight with:

●​    Smooth 165 Hz native 4K performance (or 330 Hz in FHD dual-mode for
ultra-competitive scenarios)
●​    Peak HDR brightness reaching 1600 nits (DisplayHDR 1400 certified)
●​    Exceptional contrast with deep, inky blacks
●​    Factory-calibrated color accuracy (ΔE < 1) across BT.2020, DCI-P3, Adobe RGB, and sRGB

Side-by-side comparisons at the booth were striking. The display delivered OLED-like black levels and color volume, explosive HDR highlights, and razor-sharp detail — all without the burn-in concerns that still shadow OLED panels. Video editors, colorists, motion designers, and HDR enthusiasts who tried it left especially impressed, often saying it felt like the missing link between current high-end LCDs and future display tech.

HKC Group has spent the last five years steadily moving upward — from entry-level office and gaming monitors into more serious creator and enthusiast segments. With the M10 Ultra, the company is clearly signaling it’s ready for the premium league. Representatives emphasized that RGB MiniLED isn’t just an incremental upgrade; it’s an architectural shift that sidesteps the classic trade-offs of both traditional LCD backlights and modern OLED.

Mass production is scheduled to begin in June 2026. Early indications suggest HKC intends to bring this level of technology to market at a surprisingly accessible price point — something that could seriously disrupt the current premium display hierarchy.

Judging by the nonstop photo-taking, excited multi-language discussions, and packed demo zones at CES 2026, HKC may have quietly delivered one of the show’s true sleeper hits.

If the final retail version matches what people experienced in Las Vegas, we could be looking at the moment a new serious contender enters the high-end display conversation — faster and more convincingly than almost anyone anticipated.

2026 just got a lot more interesting.

UK Looks to US to Adopt More Crypto-Friendly Approach

The post UK Looks to US to Adopt More Crypto-Friendly Approach appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The UK and US are reportedly preparing to deepen cooperation on digital assets, with Britain looking to copy the Trump administration’s crypto-friendly stance in a bid to boost innovation.  UK Chancellor Rachel Reeves and US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent discussed on Tuesday how the two nations could strengthen their coordination on crypto, the Financial Times reported on Tuesday, citing people familiar with the matter.  The discussions also involved representatives from crypto companies, including Coinbase, Circle Internet Group and Ripple, with executives from the Bank of America, Barclays and Citi also attending, according to the report. The agreement was made “last-minute” after crypto advocacy groups urged the UK government on Thursday to adopt a more open stance toward the industry, claiming its cautious approach to the sector has left the country lagging in innovation and policy.  Source: Rachel Reeves Deal to include stablecoins, look to unlock adoption Any deal between the countries is likely to include stablecoins, the Financial Times reported, an area of crypto that US President Donald Trump made a policy priority and in which his family has significant business interests. The Financial Times reported on Monday that UK crypto advocacy groups also slammed the Bank of England’s proposal to limit individual stablecoin holdings to between 10,000 British pounds ($13,650) and 20,000 pounds ($27,300), claiming it would be difficult and expensive to implement. UK banks appear to have slowed adoption too, with around 40% of 2,000 recently surveyed crypto investors saying that their banks had either blocked or delayed a payment to a crypto provider.  Many of these actions have been linked to concerns over volatility, fraud and scams. The UK has made some progress on crypto regulation recently, proposing a framework in May that would see crypto exchanges, dealers, and agents treated similarly to traditional finance firms, with…
