There's a lot of pressure on hosts Morocco in the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations, but they haven't really been tested yet. We know they only beat Tanzania 1-0 in the last knockout round, but that scoreline doesn't show just how much Morocco dominated that game. Cameroon will not go down so easily, and the likes of Bryan Mbeumo can be decisive if given the opportunity.

I store most of my documents in the cloud, but not everything is stored there. So, when I wanted to factory reset my MacBook, I turned to my homelab for backing up my Apple computer. Here’s how I did it, and why I think you should utilize your hardware in the same way.

LG and SwitchBot can promise chores-doing robots all they want, but robot vacuums are still the most practical way to automate a household task by far. A handful of promising new robot vacuums have been announced at CES 2026 so far, and they're not trying too hard to be fancy like they were in 2025. The emphasis is on more vigorous cleaning power and more flawless navigation around the home — the factors that actually determine whether a robot vacuum can be more reliable than a manual vacuum.

Below, I'm breaking down the most important vacuum news out of CES as of Jan. 7, from the best robot vacuums announced to intel about upcoming cordless vacuum innovations. Feel free to scroll leisurely or use the table of contents to drop down to a specific brand.

Roborock Credit: Roborock Credit: Roborock

Roborock didn't try to right the wrongs of the Saros Z70's wonky mechanical crane arm from last year. Instead, the brand focused on improving the other already-great 2025 Saros robot vacuums with the new Saros 20 and Saros 20 Sonic. Roborock also introduced the Qrevo Curv Flow 2, its first roller mop robot vacuum.

The "sonic" difference between the Saros 20 and Saros 20 Sonic has to do with the mopping mechanism. The Saros 20 Sonic takes a risk by stepping away from spinning mopping pads and going back to Roborock's VibraRise flat mopping pad system, but with a much-needed twist: sonic scrubbing along edges.

The vibrating mopping pad of the Saros 20 Sonic physically extends out past the round part of the vacuum, cleaning as close as zero millimeters against baseboards or furniture legs. That level of precise edge scrubbing is much of the reason that the Roborock Saros 10R was my favorite robot vacuum for most of 2025. If the Saros 20 Sonic's extendable sonic mop is just as meticulous as the Saros 10R's hinged spinning mopping pad, it's an automatic contender for best robot vacuum mop combo of 2026.

SEE ALSO: As an anxious cat mom, I love my robot vacuum with a livestream camera

The Roborock Saros 20 offers the same wicked 35,000 Pa suction power that the Sonic model does, but mops with dual rotating pads instead. Both vacuums automatically adjust their chassis height based on floor type in order to administer optimal airflow for debris pickup, including a special Deep Carpet Cleaning mode for plush carpets up to 1.2 inches thick. Based on the release prices of last year's models, I could see the Saros 20 costing the same $1,599.99 as the Saros 10 and 10R, and the Saros 20 Sonic costing $1,699.99 or $1,799.99.

The Roborock Qrevo Curv 2 Flow also claims pro corner cleaner with a roller mop that automatically pops out when a wall edge or corner is detected. Since it's Roborock's first stab at a roller mop robot vacuum, I'm curious to see how it'll compare to my experiences with roller mop models like the Dreame Aqua10 Ultra Roller or Eufy E28. Unfortunately, the Qrevo Curv 2 Flow's 20,000 Pa of suction power is surprisingly low for a 2026 CES debut. At any rate, it will be available to buy starting Jan. 19, with an opening promotional price of $849. After Feb. 1, the Qrevo Curv 2 Flow will cost $999.

A legitimate stairs-climbing robot vacuum from Roborock has also been confirmed. The Saros Rover will be a two-wheel robot vac that can raise and lower independently of each other in a motion that mimics human walking. It is officially in development, but there's no time frame or price point talk as of now.

Narwal Credit: Narwal Credit: Narwal

Narwal staggered announcements of the new versions of its two main botvac series: The newest Narwal Freo came out in September, and now, the Narwal Flow 2 is the flagship representing Narwal at CES 2026. The big difference is the roller mop.

It appears that Narwal's signature millennial gray is here to stay, although the Flow 2's gold accents and frosted glass panel do give it a more premium look than the Freo Z10 Ultra. The Narwal Flow 2 is also the higher-end pick in terms of cleaning power: The Flow 2 is a sturdy roller mop robot vacuum that scrubs with hot water and rinses itself mid-cleaning as the roller gets dirty. Water flow and scrubbing time are determined in real time as the Narwal assesses the type of dirt and mess level in its cleaning path. The Flow 2's 30,000 Pa of suction power initially positions it as the better choice over the Roborock Qrevo Curv 2 Flow. If this Narwal ends up costing less than $1,000, it's the new roller mop robot vacuum to beat.

Narwal also introduced "Family-First Scenario Modes," like Pet Care Mode, which includes auto pet zone cleaning, find my pet, and smart pet video calling, and Baby Care Mode, where the robot automatically switches to quiet mode near the crib.

Dreame already unveiled a chunk of its new vacuum lineup in August, including the flagship Dreame Aqua10 Ultra Roller that was the apex robot vacuum for a few months... until Dreame outdid itself at CES. With a suction power of 35,000 Pa, the Dreame X60 Max Ultra ties with the Roborock S6 models for the most powerful robot vacuum currently available. (Even with all of that power, they're all super slim robot vacuums measuring just over three inches tall.) But the most unique upgrade is a front-facing blue light for mess illumination, which is said to help the vacuum distinguish between different debris and spills, and vacuum or mop accordingly. I picture it working similarly to my beloved Dyson laser. The new Dyson robot vacuum, announced a few months ago, is reportedly equipped with a similar light and reactive cleaning technique, but its release is taking forever.

Through Jan. 25, the X60 Max Ultra Complete can be preordered from Dreame's website for special early bird pricing of $1,359.99. That's $340 off its $1,699.99 MSRP, plus $410 in free gifts.

That wasn't the only major robot vacuum announcement from Dreame CES 2026. This year, it's Dreame — not Roborock — who's trying to make a robot vacuum with an arm happen. Tech editor Timothy Beck Werth witnessed the Dreame Cyber 10 Ultra and its CyberDex HyperFlex Arm successfully pick up a ball (albeit at a glacial pace) at a CES demo.

The arm's total weight limit is 500 grams (just over one pound), which should make it a more worthwhile object picker-upper than the Roborock Saros Z70's 300-gram max. Dreame calls the Cyber 10 Ultra the "first-ever robot vacuum with autonomous tool-utility technology, able to take out and use tools like a human and to execute with robotic perfection."

Whatever that means past picking up balls is still up in the air. We'll find out more when Dreame gives more info on its official release. A legitimate stairs-climbing Dreame vacuum, the Cyber X, is also in the works.

Eufy Credit: Eufy Credit: Eufy

Eufy announced its new flagship robot vacuum at IFA in September rather than CES. But it still very much deserves to be in the conversation about best new robot vacuums in 2026. The Eufy Omni S2 features several upgraded specs, including "the world's first built-in aromatherapy system for a robot vacuum," which offers scents like bamboo and sage for whole-home freshness.

This isn't Eufy's first roller mop robot vacuum — the Eufy E28, which I've tested, also comes with a portable carpet cleaner and features a roller mop. But the Omni S2 beats that suction power by 10,000 Pa and scrubs more vigorously with over three pounds of downward pressure. The Omni S2's station also electrolyzes water right in the mopping tank, said to eliminate 99.99% of pathogens.

The Omni S2 is particularly vigilant around rugs and carpeting. In the past, many robot vacuums I've tested consistently skipped over crumbs hanging out at the edge of my kitchen rug, or kitty litter gathered at the edge of a bath mat. This apparently shouldn't happen with the Omni S2, as Eufy says it can sweep than 0.2 inches away from rug borders without getting stuck. The Omni S2 uses AI to detect tassels and drives around them without skipping the rug completely. When plush carpeting is sensed, the chassis physically lifts over the pile and adjusts suction for deep cleaning.

The Eufy Omni S2 can be purchased for $1,599.99 from Eufy's website, with shipping starting on Jan. 20. Buying early also unlocks early bird perks worth $435, including a replacement accessories kit, fragrance refills, and an Eufy Indoor Cam C210.

If you trust stick vacuums more than robot vacuums, several new cordless stick vacuum options also just hit the scene at CES, along with a handful of cordless wet-dry vacuums. And none of them are Dyson — Dyson did announce a slew of new vacuums at its Dyson Unveiled event in September, but it wasn't present at CES 2026. And while we're still waiting on confirmed prices and release dates for those new Dyson vacuums, other vacuum brands just made the competition a whole lot closer.

Roborock

Along with three new flagship robot vacuums, Roborock also announced the F25 Ace Pro. It's an upscaled version of its current F25 Ace Combo wet-dry vacuum and self-washing station that now features Roborock's JetFoaming technology, said to produce millions of microbubbles to dissolve and lift stains better than a typical squirt of liquid solution. The F25 Ace Pro will retail for $699 after a brief early bird discount to $549.99 between Jan. 19 and Jan. 30.

Dreame

Though Dreame announced more than one cordless vac with its August announcement, it did save its new Aero series cordless models for CES. There are two Aero iterations: the regular Aero, a cordless wet-dry vacuum with a dual tank roller mop that prevents cross contamination and a self-cleaning base, and the Aero Pro, with enhanced battery life over the Aero and 185-degree Fahrenheit hot water self-cleaning. Both feature a 180-degree hinge to lay flat for cleaning under low-clearance furniture.

Surprisingly enough, Tineco is a popular vacuum brand that hasn't dabbled in robotic cleaning yet. But the family of cordless cleaners that debuted at CES seems quite robust. The most unique is the Tineco i7 Fold: It weighs less than eight pounds (super compact for a duo wet-dry vacuum) and can fold 180 degrees flat to wash hard-to-reach floors under furniture, which may typically have only been accessed by a mopping robot vacuum.

Tineco also debuted three versions of the new Floor One S9 series. The Floor One S9 Scientist is decked out with LED accents and bold lighting ("cyberpunk" was mentioned in the press release) and features smart mess detection and high-temperature deep cleaning. The Floor One S9 Artist is aimed toward more design-forward living spaces and features high-pressure angled water, a StreakFree Scraper, and a self-cleaning station that automatically replenishes hot water and dries the mop. The Floor One S9 Master is being coined as Tineco's highest level of performance, complete with a green dust-revealing headlight.

Narwal

Narwal doesn't just want to be a competitive name in the robot vacuum space. The brand's CES spread also included its first cordless vacuums, plus an interesting cordless mattress deep cleaner. The Narwal V50 is a compact auto-emptying stick vacuum that weighs just 3.1 pounds — about two pounds lighter than the Dyson V12 Detect Slim. The launch also teases an ultra-slim slim unnamed Narwal vac with double-headed green lights, resembling the upcoming Dyson Pencilvac.

Head to the Mashable CES 2026 hub for the latest news and live updates from the biggest show in tech, where Mashable journalists are reporting live. 

Microsoft just quietly pulled the plug on one of Windows Media Player’s oldest and most loved features. If you still enjoy digitizing your compact discs into digital files, you may have recently noticed a major problem.

Back in the day, every single Android phone had an SD card slot. Expandable storage was as common as 3.5mm jacks. Nowadays, though, only a select few, mostly budget, phones come with one. But now's the perfect time for phone brands to bring it back. Here's why.

Disney+ will add vertical videos to its streaming service in an effort to boost engagement, Deadline reported. The company made the announcement at the Tech and Data Showcase at CES.

Expect to see various types of content on Disney+'s vertical videos, including original short-form content, repurposed social clips, and scenes from longer Disney+ titles, according to Erin Teague, EVP of product management for Disney Entertainment and ESPN, in an interview with Deadline.

"We're obviously thinking about integrating vertical video in ways that are native to core user behaviors," Teague said. "So, it won’t be a kind of disjointed, random experience." They're not going to be teasers for longer programs, but rather another experience on the platform.

Disney first experimented with vertical videos on the ESPN app with the "Verts" tab, which launched in August 2025.

If you haven’t made any New Year’s resolutions yet, here’s an idea: Make a commitment to self-care by snagging yourself a new vibe at Nancy. (Yes, it’s kind of an odd name, but the vibrators are super cute, super powerful, and half off!) Plus, the less-intimidating shapes make for really great beginner vibes for anyone who’s nervous about buying their first sex toy.

As of Jan. 9, you can get up to 50% off select items at Nancy. The Lem Clitoral Massager, which is easily the cutest thing I own, is down to $89, from its usual $159. That’s a $70 price cut on a top-rated clitoral massager. Bonus: Once you add it to your cart, a “free mystery gift” will appear. It’s not clear what the gift is, but it's worth $9.99, so it could be lube or a storage bag.

I can personally vouch for the Lem; it’s tiny, discreet, and just really well-designed. If you want to go all out, the Oh-Oh-Oh Triple Bundle (which includes the Lem, the Uno, and the Lolly Mini Wand is currently $199, down from $399. You’re basically getting three for the price of one.

The best part about Nancy is that everything ships in discreet packaging, and shipping is free worldwide. They also have a 30-day satisfaction guarantee, so if you’re on the fence about trying a new shape, there’s really no risk. The sale is in its final minutes, though, so I wouldn’t wait too long if you’ve got your eye on something.

SAVE $30: Paramount+ has a price hike going into effect on Jan. 15. This is your last chance to sign up for a Paramount+ Essential annual plan for just $59.99 before it jumps to $89.99.

Opens in a new window Credit: Paramount+ Paramount+ Essential annual plan $59.99/year (save $30 before the price hike) Get Deal Opens in a new window Credit: Paramount+ Paramount+ Premium annual plan $119.99/year (save $20 before price hike) Get Deal

Paramount+ is ringing in 2026 with a good old fashioned price hike. Come Jan. 15, the prices of both the Essential monthly plan (with ads) and the Premium monthly plan (no ads) will increase by a dollar. The annual plans, on the other hand, will see a $30 and $20 increase, respectively. My advice is to lock in an annual plan now before the price hike hits.

The Paramount+ Essential annual plan is just $59.99, which breaks down to a wildly low $4.99 per month. Once the price hike hits on Jan. 15, that price will jump to $89.99. Compared to the monthly plan, the current Essential annual subscription saves users $35.98 per year, or an impressive 38% (the biggest annual savings of any streamer). The new plan price will only save subscribers $17.89 per year — less than half of the savings under the current plan. If you're looking to save on streaming this year, I highly recommend locking in the Essential annual plan ASAP.

The Premium annual plan won't see quite as big of a price hike, but it's still worth it to lock in a year of streaming before Jan. 15. Currently, a Premium yearly plan costs $119.99 per year, but it will jump to $139.99 next week. Subscribers of the current annual plan will ultimately save $35.89 per year compared to the monthly plan. The new plan price will only save subscribers $27.89.

Is it worth subscribing to Paramount+ for a whole year? I think so, particularly if you're an NFL fan. Paramount+ will give you access to several playoff games coming up, as well as AFC games during the regular season. Not to mention, it's where you can watch Landman, Dexter Resurrection, every season of Survivor and Big Brother, Nickelodeon shows (new and old), Paramount Pictures films straight from the theater, and so much more.

With the launch of Google's long-awaited Apple Find My competitor back in 2024, item trackers have become even more popular. Many of them have been pretty basic, but the most interesting trackers we’ve ever seen were just announced at CES.

If you have a favorite character, chances are they'll be represented.

This booster box is perfect for adding to your overall collection, building new decks to play with, or just admiring from afar -- they're really gorgeous cards. Better pounce on this deal now before, like many Magic card sets, they sell out completely.

Google has been sneaking in its AI assistant, Gemini, into Gmail for some time. Now Gmail is apparently "entering the Gemini era" officially with an inbox assistant, according to a blog post by Gmail's VP of product, Blake Barnes, published yesterday.

One feature Gmail's launching is AI Overviews, which summarize information in your inbox, apparently building on the already-launched autogenerated email summaries. AI Overview can also be able to answer questions about what's in your inbox, but this feature will only be available to Google AI Pro and Ultra subscribers.

SEE ALSO: Google says it isn't using your Gmail to train AI

AI Inbox, another addition, is designed to "filter out the clutter" so you can focus on the most important emails. Features include personalized briefings, highlighting to-dos, and identifying emails from contacts.

AI Inbox analysis "happens securely with the privacy protections you expect from Google, keeping your data under your control," the blog post states.

Starting yesterday, all Gmail users can use Help Me Write for email drafts. An update to Smart Replies, called Suggested Replies, also launched for everyone. Gmail also now features a Proofread tool for grammar, tone, and style — but this is only available to Google AI Pro and Ultra subscribers.

In addition to the blog post, Google published a YouTube video about the new AI tools:

The top (unpinned) comment reads, "Nobody is going to sound human anymore."

Last year, some Gmail users began noticing the "Help Me Write" prompt, complete with the sparkle icon that has become synonymous with AI. Mashable published a guide on how to turn that off.

If you plan on working more on the move this year, you don't need to be confined to a measly laptop screen. The ASUS ZenScreen portable monitor doubles your screen real estate wherever you are and you can get it for 20% off this weekend.

As of Jan. 9, the 15.6-inch ASUS ZenScreen portable monitor is on sale for just $119 at Amazon. That's $30 off its usual $149 price tag and the lowest price we've seen in months.

Remote workers know the struggle of hovering over a tiny laptop screen with dozens of tabs open at once. The 15.6-inch ZenScreen extends that workspace instantly, no matter where you choose to work, by plugging into your laptop's USB-C port. There's no need to worry about charging it or even finding an unused outlet. All you need is a single cable to power it up and get to work.

Its slim 10.5mm build can easily slip into your backpack, but I personally recommend snagging a separate case for it. As an owner of the ASUS ZenScreen myself, I will say it feels a bit more fragile than a laptop. A padded laptop bag does the trick for me and I've never had any issues. Its built-in kickstand makes propping it up on any surface a breeze; you can even work in portrait mode if you desire.

Having two screens to work from on the go? Game-changing. And it'll only set you back $119 if you act fast.

Jujutsu Kaisen has entered its Culling Game arc, and its opening sequence makes one thing clear: This is not a game anyone survives unchanged.

Released online yesterday alongside the Season 3 premiere, the opening sequence abandons straightforward hype in favor of something more symbolic and, dare I say, disturbing. Set to King Gnu's "Aizo," the opening depicts the Culling Game as a curated gallery of violence and spectacle, where participation is compulsory for jujutsu sorcerers.

SEE ALSO: For 'Jujutsu Kaisen' fans, Christmas Eve is a day of mourning

Its visuals draw heavily from fine art, weaving echoes of Egon Schiele, Paul Rubens, Claude Monet, Edvard Munch, Gustav Klimt, and John Everett Millais into its compositions. Schiele's influence surfaces in a striking image of Yuji Itadori in the womb, his tiny body distorted and compressed, while Rubens' baroque excess recontextualizes Maki and Mai Zenin as sleeping children — an image of softness already haunted by what's to come. (Don’t get me started on the tragedy of Mai as Ophelia.)

This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.

And then there's Klimt's "The Kiss," reimagined as a slightly terrifying embrace between Yuta Okkotsu and the special-grade cockroach cursed spirit Kurourushi. IYKYK.

All of it unfolds under the shadow of Satoru Gojo, whose continued absence — still sealed — hangs over the season. The opening shifts its attention to the characters we already know, now forced to carry the weight of the Culling Game themselves, while teasing the arrival of new players manga readers will recognize instantly, and anime-only viewers are about to meet. (Kirara and Hakari fans, now is our time.) Looming over everyone is Kenjaku, leering at the chaos like pieces on a game board.

This season isn't just raising the stakes. It’s changing the rules entirely.

New episodes of Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3 premiere at 12 p.m. ET on Thursdays on Crunchyroll.

The new year is here, which means you're one step closer to the films, shows, and documentaries that are scheduled for streaming. Netflix has a string of exciting titles slated to release in 2026, and is kicking off its run with a promising winter roster.

The TV arena at CES 2026 wasn't exactly the battle of RGB TVs like we expected. It was way more fun than that.

If you didn't hear the buzz prior to CES, RGB is a newer TV technology that aims to mash up the advantages of mini LED and OLED into one display, without settling for the respective disadvantages of opting for either. Now that all of the big announcements are out, there's still no denying RGB's budding popularity — almost every major TV brand made sure to throw an RGB TV in the ring this year.

However, the 2026 TV showcases also prove that the presence of RGB doesn't automatically mean that mini LED TVs or OLED TVs on their own are obsolete now. Samsung, LG, and TCL are still focusing heavily on those "classic" 4K TV types, and it made for a pretty diverse spread of new TVs hoping to make the list of best TVs in 2026.

Here's a breakdown of the coolest TVs we've seen from CES 2026:

LG Wallpaper Credit: LG

This week's jumble of TV announcements made it easy to forget that Samsung didn't mention The Frame much at CES. For the first time in forever, it was LG's turn in the art TV spotlight. LG announced the W6 Wallpaper TV at CES 2026, where "wallpaper" refers to the TV's ability to lay almost flush against the wall like framed wall art. Adding to its ability to blend in with the wall is the fact that it measures 9 mm thin (smaller than half an inch).

Both of Samsung's Frame TVs measure about an inch, so yes, the W6 Wallpaper is much thinner. But that's hardly LG's only advantage here — the W6 Wallpaper is an OLED art TV, essentially putting it in a league of its own. This means that the Wallpaper's contrast and black levels will handily beat those of the QLED Frame or Neo QLED Frame Pro. In terms of vibrancy for viewing in bright rooms, the W6 Wallpaper uses the same panel as LG's new G6 TV, and LG's G series models are consistently some of the brightest OLED TVs on the market.

Like the Frame Pro, the W6 Wallpaper is almost completely wireless. That could be of concern for gamers who are strict about input lag. But the W6 Wallpaper does support 165Hz and has a 0.1 millisecond pixel response time, according to LG. With OLED already offering the speedier, more contrast-accurate display for graphics-heavy games, the W6 Wallpaper could quickly become the uncontested art TV for gaming. The only major drawback so far? It's only set to be released in 77 inches and 83 inches.

Interestingly enough, the other big gallery TV news out of CES wasn't about a new Hisense Canvas or TCL Nxtvision. It was about the Amazon Ember Artline, a highly-awaited QLED Fire TV with a matte screen. Amazon's new art TV has 10 possible magnetic frames to choose from and will cost $899.99 for the 55-inch model or $1,099.99 for the 65-inch model. At those prices, Amazon's art TV could pose quite the competition for the non-Pro version of The Frame.

TCL launched its first RGB TV in China in September. Naturally, that's the model most people expected to be touted at CES. Instead, TCL doubled down on mini LED and quantum dots by debuting its X11L SQD-mini LED TV instead. SQD technology stands for Super Quantum Dot, which utilizes enhanced quantum dot nano particles to convert colors from a single-chip pure white light source instead of the direct red, green, and blue light sources at the heart of RGB TVs.

The goal is still to harness the ultra-high peak brightness typically associated with mini LED and perfect black levels typically associated with OLED, all in the same TV. With awe-inspiring specs like "up to 20,000 local dimming zones," "peak brightness up to 10,000 nits," and "100% of BT.2020 color coverage," TCL's Super Quantum Dot tech isn't letting RGB become the new gold standard that easily. A simple Google search of "TCL X11L" will quickly give you an idea of how much this TV impressed CES goers who saw it in person.

Samsung surely won the award for biggest TV on the CES floor, where it hauled in a 130-inch version of its new Micro RGB TV. The Samsung R95H promises to cover 100 percent of the BT.2020 wide color gamut through an array of red, green, and blue LEDs smaller than 100 micrometers (0.004 of an inch). Adding to the grand display, the R95H's TV stand resembled a giant easel (a throwback to Samsung's own Timeless Frame).

Based on the absurdity of the size alone, a 10-foot RGB TV can't not be mentioned in a story about the most exciting TVs from CES 2026. But Samsung is making this new line more accessible for the size of an average living room wall, noting that the R95H line line will be available in 55, 65, 75, 85, and 100 inches. Whether or not the price point for the smaller models will feel accessible to most people is another story.

Hisense also brought a giant RGB TV to CES: The 116-inch 116UXS, which is said to add a fourth color, cyan, to the traditional red, green, and blue spectrum. Two other RGB Mini LED options from Hisense, the UR8 and UR9, will also be available at more realistic pricing (as in, not $30,000) and in more realistic sizes (between 55 and 100 inches).

On the other end of the sizing spectrum, the other cool new TV from Samsung measures just 32 inches. To be fair, it's small because it's portable, down to wheels on its stand and a handle on the back. The Samsung Movingstyle M7 is a wireless 4K touchscreen display that doubles as a monitor, depending on how you may need to use a screen that day. Its 17.7-inch rolling base can move smoothly between hardwood and carpet, or can be propped up on the most convenient flat surface with the built-in kickstand.

The concept of wheeling a TV from room to room may sound a little extra upon first read. But it'll pop into your head the next time you're watching a YouTube workout or DIY fixit video from your tiny phone screen. With three hours of battery on one charge and a decent price point of $1,199.99, the Movingstyle could actually be a pretty practical option.

The TV arena at CES 2026 wasn't exactly the battle of RGB TVs like we expected. It was way more fun than that.

If you didn't hear the buzz prior to CES, RGB is a newer TV technology that aims to mash up the advantages of mini LED and OLED into one display, without settling for the respective disadvantages of opting for either. Now that all of the big announcements are out, there's still no denying RGB's budding popularity — almost every major TV brand made sure to throw an RGB TV in the ring this year.

However, the 2026 TV showcases also prove that the presence of RGB doesn't automatically mean that mini LED TVs or OLED TVs on their own are obsolete now. Samsung, LG, and TCL are still focusing heavily on those "classic" 4K TV types, and it made for a pretty diverse spread of new TVs hoping to make the list of best TVs in 2026.

Here's a breakdown of the coolest TVs we've seen from CES 2026:

This week's jumble of TV announcements made it easy to forget that Samsung didn't mention The Frame much at CES. For the first time in forever, it was LG's turn in the art TV spotlight. LG announced the W6 Wallpaper TV at CES 2026, where "wallpaper" refers to the TV's ability to lay almost flush against the wall like framed wall art. Adding to its ability to blend in with the wall is the fact that it measures 9 mm thin (smaller than half an inch).

Both of Samsung's Frame TVs measure about an inch, so yes, the W6 Wallpaper is much thinner. But that's hardly LG's only advantage here — the W6 Wallpaper is an OLED art TV, essentially putting it in a league of its own. This means that the Wallpaper's contrast and black levels will handily beat those of the QLED Frame or Neo QLED Frame Pro.
