CES is packed with AI companions and assistant robots this year, but the DeskMate from Loona is a clever take on the idea: it’s a desktop charging hub, with three USB-C ports, one USB-A, and a MagSafe pad, that automatically activates an AI companion app when you attach your iPhone to the wireless charger. What’s […]
HP is announcing a new mini desktop computer at CES 2026, and the whole thing is housed in a compact keyboard.

Dell-owned Alienware is looking to reach a wider swath of gamers, announcing at CES 2026 that it’s working on two new laptops: one with a lower, entry-level price and one with an ultra-slim chassis.

At last year’s CES, Eli Health announced the Hormometer – an at-home hormone test for cortisol that utilized saliva and a smartphone. For this year’s show, the company is back and expanding into testosterone and progesterone. Eli Health isn’t changing up how its Hormometer works. You still stick a thin cartridge attached to a wand […]

Asus is no stranger to odd yet badass limited editions of its one-of-a-kind gaming tablet, and for CES 2026 it’s collaborating with Kojima Productions on the best-looking one yet.

The Asus ROG Zephyrus Duo is back, but for CES 2026 both its screens are going full edge-to-edge – like a Zenbook Duo built for gaming.

The […]
