Lenovo’s new concept rollable could be the ideal gaming laptop
Lenovo is at it again with wild laptop concepts for CES 2026, and the biggest one is the Legion Pro Rollable gaming laptop. It has a flexible OLED display that expands horizontally - as opposed to Lenovo's ThinkBook Plus Gen 6, which rolls up and down. The Legion Pro Rollable's screen goes from a conventional [...]
This ThinkPad laptop concept has a rollable display that wraps around its lid
At CES 2026, Lenovo is announcing yet another new concept laptop with a transforming screen: the ThinkPad Rollable XD Concept.

Lenovo’s joining the bandwagon with concept AI glasses
Lenovo is the latest tech company to get bit by the smart glasses bug. The company just showed off a pair of concept AI glasses at CES 2026. While these weren't a working prototype, we have some idea of where Lenovo's head is at. The lightweight frames weigh about 45g and have a 2MP camera [...]

Moto’s new tracking tag comes with a healthy battery boost
It's always refreshing when the new version of a product gets significantly better battery life than the last. And that's the case with the Moto Tag 2: Motorola's second-gen tracker tag can go more than 500 days before it needs a new battery. That's almost a year and a half that you can forget about [...]
Lenovo’s second SteamOS handheld is the Legion Go 2
One year ago, Lenovo became the first company besides Valve to announce a handheld with SteamOS instead of Windows. The result was the Legion Go S with SteamOS; no Steam Deck killer due to price and battery life, but a big step forward in performance and pick-up-and-play portability. Now, Lenovo's doing it again - it's [...]
Motorola’s first book-style fold debuts with one big question unanswered
I tried, but I couldn't tease even a hint out of the Motorola spokespeople I talked to: How much will the Razr Fold cost? Here's what Motorola is willing to say right now: The Razr Fold comes with a 6.6-inch outer screen, an 8.1-inch 2K LTPO inner display, three 50-megapixel rear cameras, one 32-megapixel selfie [...]
Jake Sullivan is furious that Trump destroyed his AI foreign policy

It's a new year, so why not treat yourself? In 2022, Jake Sullivan, then national security adviser under President Joe Biden and a powerful figure in [...]
Influencer content is fuel for an internet-obsessed administration
Just a day after publishing a 40-minute video alleging fraud at Minnesota daycare centers, Nick Shirley had the vice president's attention. In Shirley's video, he and another man identified only as "David" roam Minneapolis with cameras and microphones, demanding entrance to daycare centers they say are operated by members of the local Somali community. With [...]
At CES, EVs take a backseat to robotaxis and AI
It says a lot about the current moment when one of the world's largest EV sellers shows up at the world's biggest electronics show to announce not a new, more affordable model or a cool futuristic concept car, but a humanoid robot. And one we've seen already. Hyundai's decision to use its CES keynote to [...]
Wi-Fi 8 is appearing at CES before most of us have switched to Wi-Fi 7
The first Wi-Fi 8 routers and chips made a surprise appearance at CES 2026, and could launch this year, only a couple of years after Wi-Fi 7 debuted. So, if you don't already have a Wi-Fi 7 router - and many of us don't - you might want to consider holding off on upgrading. Rather [...]
This RV will charge your electric truck after towing
Electric trucks seem to have hit a pothole recently, ignored by truck owners who say they're worried about losing too much ranging from towing. But what if the thing your towing could also pump electrons back into your truck's battery when all's said and done? That what California-company Evotrex is proposing with its new RV, [...]
Grok is undressing children — can the law stop it?
Grok began 2026 as it began 2025: under fire for its AI-generated images. Elon Musk's chatbot has spent the last week flooding X with nonconsensual, sexualized deepfakes of adults and minors. Circulating screenshots show Grok complying with requests to put real women in lingerie and make them spread their legs, and to put small children [...]

CES promises the robot butler, but delivers better Roombas instead
If you listen to the CES hype machine this year, you might think that robots are finally ready to take over your domestic duties. To some extent that's true, but take note of the plural: there's no single robot ready to take over all of your household chores yet, but an army of them just [...]
The biggest Nvidia announcements at CES 2026
We're not even a full week into 2026 yet, but Nvidia has already announced several products and updates to start the new year.

AI moves into the real world as companion robots and pets
Artificial intelligence doesn't always want to optimize your life or steal your job. Sometimes, AI just wants to be your friend. And while robot pets weren't the biggest stars of CES 2026, they've become more than just noise and are signaling how AI is apparently leaving our screens and taking on a physical presence in [...]

Power bank feature creep is out of control
There was a time not too long ago when buying a power bank was as easy as choosing the cheapest portable battery that could charge your phone and quickly slip into your pocket, purse, or backpack. The hardest part was deciding whether it was time to ditch USB-A ports. Recently, however, brands have been slathering [...]
This 16-inch laptop is so light I can easily lift it with three fingers

Roborock’s new Saros 20 robot vacuum cleaners got a climbing upgrade
Roborock's latest robovacs don't need help getting out of tricky situations.

The upgraded chassis in Roborock's new flagship robot vacuum cleaners allows the bots to climb over thresholds [...]

The robots, phones, and Lego of CES 2026
This year's Consumer Electronics Show is only just getting into full swing, and we've already seen a deluge of gadget announcements. There are the staples, of course: gigantic TVs, smart home sensors, phone accessories, weirdly elaborate ways to charge your devices. Wouldn't be CES without them. But this year in Las Vegas, there are also [...]

Dell announced at CES 2026 that it'll launch the UltraSharp 32 4K QD-OLED Monitor on February 24th for $2,599.99.

The [...]

Smart whiteboard manufacturer Vibe is expanding further into hybrid work hardware with the Vibe Bot, a physical AI device that can serve as a voice assistant, a smart webcam, and an AI note-taker, designed for office desks and meeting rooms.

Ugreen is now selling an AI NAS with more RAM than my desktop
A decade ago, Google Photos changed photo storage for me forever - because I could search for those photos just by typing a few words. But that meant trusting Google cloud servers with my precious memories. Now, a new breed of network-attached storage (NAS) boxes promises to do the same and more with local AI, [...]
Corsair fit a whole Stream Deck into its new gaming keyboard
Elgato's Stream Deck has come full circle. Almost eight years after the company picked up the pieces of Art Lebedev's ambitious Optimus keyboard and went in a different, cheaper direction with the idea, we're going back to keyboards.

No,Microsoftdidn’trebrand Office toMicrosoft365 Copilot
Microsoft has got the internet confused, again. Over the past couple of days posts on Reddit, Hacker News, and X have claimed Microsoft has rebranded Microsoft Office to Microsoft 365 Copilot. As much as Microsoft loves to shove its Copilot branding everywhere, Office hasn't been renamed to "Microsoft 365 Copilot app." The confusion comes from [...]

That's when Bosch is rolling a new digital theft feature that lets owners mark the bike as stolen in the Bosch Flow app - no subscription required. Bosch rolled out a similar feature for expensive [...]
These open-ear buds actually have decent noise reduction
My biggest gripe about open-ear buds is that they're rotten for loud city commutes. Cue a pedantic audiophile pointing out that the whole premise of open-ear buds is to not block out sound. Yes, yes. But the unfortunate truth is that often means if you want open-ear buds for one situation, you'll have to buy [...]
