HKC has formally introduced the M10 Ultra, which the company positions as the world’s first RGB mini LED gaming monitor after an earlier teaser campaign. The Chinese semiconductor display specialist highlights a new RGB mini LED backlight system that enables what it calls “simultaneous light and color control,” in contrast to conventional white or blue mini LED solutions that only offer “single light control.” Until now, HKC notes that this richer RGB mini LED backlight experience has largely been limited to very large premium televisions from brands such as Hisense and Samsung.
According to a domestic press release cited in the announcement, the “color focused” M10 Ultra uses an integrated backlight array with 4788 independent control zones that the company claims can “reshape light” for more precise illumination. HKC says this design largely eliminates the halo artifacts commonly associated with mini LED backlighting, using a micron-level “light and color control” matrix coupled with independent red, green, and blue channel manipulation algorithms. The monitor has been introduced but not yet released at retail, and HKC indicates that a launch in China could take place within the first quarter of 2026.
HKC positions the upcoming 32-inch 4K M10 Ultra as meeting professional-grade expectations, stating that it achieves a 100% coverage of the BT.2020 color gamut, and also covers sRGB, DCI-P3, and Adobe RGB. An initial specification sheet describes a 31.4-inch panel that supports dual-mode operation, with a primary 3840 x 2160 mode at a 165 Hz native refresh rate. The same sheet states that a competitive gaming mode raises the refresh rate to 330 Hz while reducing the resolution to 1080p. On the connectivity front, the M10 Ultra includes DisplayPort 2.1 support for high bandwidth video signals, although HKC has not yet clarified whether the panel technology is IPS or VA.
