We’re back to start the year off with a very special live interview with Razer CEO Min-Liang Tan, which we taped in front of a terrific audience at Brooklyn Bowl in Las Vegas during CES. Razer is obviously best known for making mice, keyboards, and gaming PCs in its signature black and bright green, with […]
At CES, I did what you’re not supposed to do: I brought a pre-production laptop to use as my primary workhorse during a hectic event. The unproven rifle in question is the new Arm-based Asus Zenbook A16. It’s a 16-inch laptop that weighs less than a 13-inch MacBook Air and comes with a high-end Snapdragon […]
As we predicted, the world’s biggest consumer electronics show was a bit of a bust for gamers this year! CES 2026 brought us several neat gamepads, but barely any handhelds and no new desktop GPUs – not from Nvidia, not from Intel, and not from AMD. But if you dig deep, AMD said two things […]
The Lego Smart Brick won our Best in Show award at CES 2026, and it was no wonder after watching Lego designer Maarten Simons’ expert demo there. So I thought: why not let you virtually attend the same tech demo I did? Before I left Las Vegas, I snuck back into Lego’s suite to film […]
We spent last week running to meetings, demos, and the convention floors to see as much as we could at CES 2026. And now that we’ve (sort of) recovered, it’s time to answer any questions you still have. Did we replace Dom with his clone? Did Jen survive a robot falling on her? Is Vee […]
The most interesting story at this year’s CES was just a little tiny bundle of technology. One way to look at Lego’s new Smart Brick is as something like a Raspberry Pi, an endlessly remixable gizmo with infinite hacking potential – it can be anything, in the best possible way. Another way to look at […]
Motional says it will launch a driverless robotaxi service in Las Vegas before the end of 2026.
It’s January, which means there’s a whole year of rectangular glass slabs ahead of us. But before that happens, I managed to find phones of a different shape lurking around the corners of the CES convention center halls. They weren’t center stage, of course. That was reserved for robots doing laundry badly. But in the […]
I picked Aqara’s Smart Lock U400 and Roborock’s Saros Rover robot vacuum as the overall best smart home gadgets from CES 2026, but there were gazillions of other great gadgets on the show floor. It was a banner year for smart home products, but the big trends I saw weren’t about new product categories; they […]
Keychron announced new mechanical keyboards with marathon battery life at CES, but this trackball stole the spotlight. The Nape Pro is Keychron’s first trackball, and its slender frame means it can work on your desk in multiple ways. You can keep it to the right or left of a keyboard like a traditional trackball, or […]
