Hisense, a leading brand in global consumer electronics and home appliances, unveiled the 116UXS RGB Mini-LED TV and Laser Projector XR10 at CES 2026, placing display innovation at the centre of its global showcase and highlighting its latest breakthroughs in human-centric display technology.
As the originator of RGB Mini-LED technology, Hisense introduces RGB Mini-LED evo — a system-level evolution that advances beyond conventional parameter-driven upgrades toward fundamental innovation in backlight architecture. Building on the traditional red, green and blue backlight structure, RGB Mini-LED evo is the industry’s first to introduce a Sky Blue-Cyan fourth LED into the Mini-LED backlight system, completing one of the most commonly missing portions of the natural light spectrum.
With the advanced 134-bit colour control and a colour coverage exceeding 110% of BT.2020, RGB Mini-LED evo enables more faithful reproduction of skies, water and cyan-green tones, and it also delivers professional-grade colour accuracy at approximately ΔE 0.6 through enhanced system-level colour calibration. Furthermore, its optimized light-source design reduces harmful blue light by up to 80 per cent, supporting a more comfortable and natural long-term viewing experience on ultra-large screens.
The 116UXS, the first product powered by RGB Mini-LED evo, represents a decisive shift toward structure-driven display innovation — placing colour fidelity, visual comfort and real viewing experience at the centre of next-generation large-screen television design. This is where extreme performance truly meets lasting comfort.
UR8 and UR9 are Hisense’s core RGB Mini-LED TV lineups, designed to bring true RGB Mini-LED performance to more consumers through mainstream pricing and the widest size coverage.
Building on this technology leadership, Hisense takes responsibility not only to lead the category, but to scale it. UR8 and UR9 deliver flagship-level picture fundamentals — true RGB Mini-LED and AI-driven colour and scene optimization — while extending accessibility across 55-inch to 100-inch sizes, making them the best RGB Mini-LED choice for the majority of households.
For ultra-large-screen home cinema scenarios, Hisense further extends its leadership through TriChroma laser technology. Making its global debut at CES 2026, the XR10 delivers cinematic-scale visuals with high brightness, rich colour expression and stable long-term performance, offering an immersive home theatre solution for projections up to 300 inches.
Together, RGB Mini-LED for ultra-large TVs and TriChroma Laser for home cinema projection define Hisense’s large-screen display strategy, addressing both premium living-room viewing and immersive cinematic experiences. Anchored by the debut of 116UXS and XR10, this approach brings the CES 2026 theme “Innovating a Brighter Life” to life through display innovation designed to feel more natural, comfortable and relevant in everyday use.

UK invests £210M on Action Plan to Strengthen Public Sector Cybersecurity & Software Supply Chain
Posted in Commentary with tags UK on January 7, 2026 by itnerdThe UK has unveiled the Government Cyber Action Plan, a key element of which is the creation of a new Government Cyber Unit which will coordinate cyber risk management, improve visibility of risks across government, and oversee incident response and recovery. The Plan is backed by £210 million in funding, aimed at strengthening cybersecurity and digital resilience across government departments and public services.
The Plan reads: “To protect our critical national infrastructure, defend public institutions and maintain public confidence in essential public services, we must achieve a radical shift in approach and a step change in pace.” Its goals:
The Cyber Unit will drive progress towards these strategic objectives by working with NCSC, departments, devolved governments, and suppliers, and will lead cross-government delivery in phases:
The Action Plan is published alongside the Cyber Security and Resilience Bill which defines expectations for suppliers and organizations providing services to government, and includes initiatives like the Software Security Ambassador Scheme to strengthen the software supply chain.
Here’s input from cybersecurity experts on the Action Plan.
Ted Miracco, CEO, Approov (UK mobile security expert):
“The UK government is right to invest £210 million to fix the ‘fragile foundations’ of its legacy systems. However, the plan leaves blind spots as it pushes for faster and more accessible digital services without setting concrete, mandatory rules for mobile devices or the data connections (APIs) they rely on. Currently, this plan groups mobile security under a voluntary Software Security Code of Practice and general Secure by Design goals. This is risky as the government acknowledges that ‘generative AI’ is a top-tier threat, yet it hasn’t established specific defenses for the mobile interfaces that AI tools will inevitably target next.”
Michael Bell, CEO, Suzu Labs:
“The UK government published a cyber strategy that names the problem. They explicitly acknowledge that government cyber risk is “critically high” and legacy systems “cannot be defended by modern cyber security measures.” The new Government Cyber Unit brings centralized coordination for risk management and incident response, which addresses the fragmented responsibility that has left departments making security decisions in isolation. The four-year implementation timeline is ambitious for government, but the phased approach is realistic. What matters now is execution, specifically whether departments actually replace legacy systems and implement the security controls the strategy mandates.”
Jacob Krell, Senior Director: Secure AI Solutions & Cybersecurity, Suzu Labs:
“The plan being proposed is timely given today’s cyber threat landscape. Heightening geopolitical tensions worldwide, combined with the rapid advancement of artificial intelligence, are materially changing both the volume and sophistication of cyber attacks.
“Threat actors continue to operate with increasingly greater capabilities, in an increasingly structured and organized space. Initial access vendors and ransomware creators now go as far as offering 24/7 customer support. This increasingly hostile environment has shifted cyber risk from a primarily technical concern that fell on IT, into a persistent strategic pressure on governments and societies.
“The line between the public and private sectors is also increasingly thin. Essential public services depend heavily on privately operated companies, meaning failures in one domain quickly affect the other. Treating private sector cybersecurity as a national security concern is therefore both forward-thinking and prudent.”
Approaching cybersecurity in this manner is a great move. Hopefully this is announcement that has substance behind it rather than being an announcement for show.
