While CES doesn’t technically kick off until Tuesday, the conference gets a bit of a soft launch with CES Unveiled. This event hosts a ton of companies, all proudly showing off their latest products and concepts in one giant room. While there’s plenty to write home about, five products in particular this year caught my […]

At CES 2026, I was able to play the Nintendo Switch 2 in AR. That’s something I hadn’t done before, and that’s because until now, only one company had an AR dock that worked with Nintendo’s latest console, which doesn’t like to play nice with AR glasses plugged directly into it.

Petkit just announced three new smart pet tech products ahead of CES. Despite the conference not kicking off until Tuesday, the company shared details around its upcoming devices that are likely to launch this spring. Perhaps unsurprisingly, Petkit advertises all three pet devices as “AI-powered,” and while that’s been a go-to gimmick for companies since […]

Pebble, the early smartwatch pioneer, has added a new model to its relaunched lineup, and it’s the thin, round model Pebble fans have been waiting for.
