Hisense is stepping into the gaming monitor space with new mini-LED displays shown at AWE 2026 in China. The lineup is led by the Hisense UX, which uses a true RGB mini-LED backlight system, a technology the company has previously used in its premium TVs.

The key difference in this panel lies in how it handles light and color. Standard mini-LED displays usually rely on a single white or blue backlight. The UX instead uses separate red, green, and blue light sources inside each LED. This allows the screen to generate colors directly from the backlight rather than filtering them later. In practical terms, this improves color accuracy and reduces the glow effect that often appears around bright objects on darker backgrounds.

The UX monitor is equipped with 2,304 local dimming zones and up to 6,912 zones dedicated to color control. This setup allows more precise adjustment of brightness and color across different parts of the screen. Hisense says the display can cover up to 100 percent of the BT.2020 color gamut. It also includes the H7 AI image processing chip, which handles image adjustments such as contrast and sharpness in real time. An Obsidian Screen coating is used on the panel to limit reflections and improve viewing clarity.

Hisense also introduced the GX Ultra alongside the UX. This model uses a 5K mini-LED panel and comes with the same 2,304 local dimming zones. It supports a peak brightness of 2,000 nits and includes the same Obsidian screen coating. One of its main features is the ability to switch between two display modes. Users can run it at 5K resolution with a 165 Hz refresh rate, or switch to QHD resolution at 330 Hz for higher frame rates. The monitor also includes a full bandwidth DisplayPort 2.1 port to handle these output modes.

Hisense has not yet shared details on pricing, full specifications, or release timelines for either model. More information is expected to be announced later.
