AMD Chair and CEO Lisa Su kicked off her keynote at CES 2026 with a message about what compute could deliver: AI for everyone.
As part of that promise, AMD announced a new line of AI processors as the company thinks AI-powered personal computers are the way of the future.
The semiconductor giant revealed AMD Ryzen AI 400 Series processor, its latest version of its AI-powered PC chips, at the yearly CES conference on Monday. The company says the latest version of its Ryzen processor series allows for 1.3x faster multitasking than its competitors and are 1.7x times faster at content creation.
These new chips feature 12 CPU Cores, individual processing units inside a core processor, and 24 threads, independent streams of instruction
Rahul Tikoo, senior vice president and general manager of AMD’s client business, said AMD has expanded to over 250 AI PC platforms on the company’s recent press briefing. That represents a growth 2x over the last year, he added.
“In the years ahead, AI is going to be a multi-layered fabric that gets woven into every level of computing at the personal layer,” Tikoo said. “Our AI PCs and devices will transform how we work, how we play, how we create and how we connect with each other.”

AMD also announced the release of the AMD Ryzen 7 9850X3D, the latest version of its gaming-focused processor.
“No matter who you are and how you use technology on a daily basis, AI is reshaping everyday computing,” Tikoo said. “You have thousands of interactions with your PC every day. AI is able to understand, learn context, bring automation, provide deep reasoning and personal customization to every individual.”
PCs that include either the Ryzen AI 300 Series processor or the AMD Ryzen 7 9850X3D processor become available in the first quarter of 2026.
The company also announced the latest version of its Redstone ray tracing technology, which simulates physical behavior of light, which allows for better video game graphics without a performance or speed lag.
OhSnap won our hearts (and a best of CES award) last year with the MCON, its tiny Bluetooth game pad that magnetically connects to your phone. At the time, we tried a pre-production unit, but in the year since the MCON has been finalized and went on sale last month. I just got a chance to try the final version here at CES, and just a quick demo was enough to convince me that OhSnap has made some solid refinements over the last year.
Just as we saw last year, the MCON attaches magnetically to an iPhone or any compatible Android phone (the company also includes a magnetic ring in the box for Androids that don’t have Qi2 yet). It has the full array of controls, including four face buttons, a D-pad, two joysticks and index finger buttons and full bumpers. It’s just sleeker and feels more solid than last year’s prototype, and while mounting your makes it feel a bit top-heavy, it’s not awkward enough to cause real issues when playuing (at least that’s how I felt after my brief demo).
The controller also has grips that unfold to help balance things, and the plate that attaches your phone to the controller has a kickstand. So if you want to drop your phone down on a tray table on a plane and play just holding the controller, feel free. All in all, the MCON feels like a flexible and high-quality device that’s probably worth the $150 OhSnap asks for it.

The company also has some new accessories to show off. There’s a $70 TV dock that powers your phone and outputs video from USB-C to HDMI. You could use this dock with any Bluetooth controller hooked up to your mobile phone, not just the MCON. There’s also a tiny $30 adapter you can put on your keychain that has a USB-C plug that goes into your phone; plug an HDMI cable into the other end and you can broadcast your games to a TV anywhere you go and play them with a controller.
It’s a pretty clever and comprehensive set of products, and while there are tons of mobile game controllers, the OhSnap feels like one of the more portable and sleek options out there. OhSnap is working on something even slimmer, though. The company showed off two new prototype controllers, the MCON Lite and MCON Slim.

As the names suggest, they’re both more compact than the original model. The Lite uses concave joypads rather than full sticks, and the Slim makes things even smaller by using concave touch pads. Your’e not going to get quite the same quality experience with those as you would with the bigger version, but they are noticeably thinner; OhSnap says they’ll be cheaper, too. The MCON Lite is scheduled to arrive this summer, while the Slim should launch in the fall (around the same time as the iPhone 18).
While most of us think about a portable PC just being a laptop, HP has another idea. Why not just stuff it all into a keyboard? That’s exactly what the HP Eliteboard G1a does.
Available soon as a part of HP’s business-focused portfolio, the HP Eliteboard G1a is a standard QWERTY keyboard (with number pad) that has an entire Windows PC built into the design. That includes all of the horsepower needed to run the PC including the AMD Ryzen CPU, storage, memory, and more, as well as microphones and speakers too.
When you attach a USB-C cable to the keyboard and to a compatible monitor, the whole thing comes to life and acts as a full Windows desktop computer. There are two USB-C ports on the keyboard, so you can use a second one for additional accessories or power if the monitor you’re using doesn’t support this. There’s a version with a built-in battery as well.
This seems like a really clever idea, but the obvious question is where it might actually be useful where a laptop doesn’t already get the job done, and that’s a fair question. HP seems to know the answer, and that’s in business environments where it might be convenient to bring your whole PC to another workstation while just carrying around a compact keyboard that plugs into the next monitor.

HP says the Eliteboard G1a will be available in March, and pricing is unclear at the moment.

LONDON — Auschwitz survivor Eva Schloss, the stepsister of teenage diarist Anne Frank and a tireless educator about the horrors of the Holocaust, has died. She was 96.
The Anne Frank Trust UK, of which Schloss was honorary president, said she died Saturday in London, where she lived.
Britain’s King Charles III said he was “privileged and proud” to have known Schloss, who co-founded the charitable trust to help young people challenge prejudice.
“The horrors that she endured as a young woman are impossible to comprehend and yet she devoted the rest of her life to overcoming hatred and prejudice, promoting kindness, courage, understanding and resilience through her tireless work for the Anne Frank Trust UK and for Holocaust education across the world,” the king said.
Born Eva Geiringer in Vienna in 1929, Schloss fled with her family to Amsterdam after Nazi Germany annexed Austria. She became friends with another Jewish girl of the same age, Anne Frank, whose diary would become one of the most famous chronicles of the Holocaust.
Like the Franks, Eva’s family spent two years in hiding to avoid capture after the Nazis occupied the Netherlands. They were eventually betrayed, arrested and sent to the Auschwitz death camp.
Schloss and her mother Fritzi survived until the camp was liberated by Soviet troops in 1945. Her father Erich and brother Heinz died in Auschwitz.
After the war, Eva moved to Britain, married German Jewish refugee Zvi Schloss and settled in London.
In 1953, her mother married Frank’s father, Otto, the only member of his immediate family to survive. Anne Frank died of typhus in the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp at the age of 15, months before the end of the war.
Schloss did not speak publicly about her experiences for decades, later saying that wartime trauma had made her withdrawn and unable to connect with others.
“I was silent for years, first because I wasn’t allowed to speak. Then I repressed it. I was angry with the world,” she told The Associated Press in 2004.
But after she addressed the opening of an Anne Frank exhibition in London in 1986, Schloss made it her mission to educate younger generations about the Nazi genocide. Over the following decades she spoke in schools and prisons, at international conferences and told her story in books including “Eva’s Story: A Survivor’s Tale by the Stepsister of Anne Frank.”
She kept campaigning into her 90s. In 2019, she traveled to Newport Beach, California, to meet teenagers who were photographed making Nazi salutes at a high school party. The following year she was part of a campaign urging Facebook to remove Holocaust-denying material from the social networking site.
“We must never forget the terrible consequences of treating people as ‘other,'” Schloss said in 2024. “We need to respect everybody’s races and religions. We need to live together with our differences. The only way to achieve this is through education, and the younger we start the better.”
Schloss’ family remembered her as “a remarkable woman: an Auschwitz survivor, a devoted Holocaust educator, tireless in her work for remembrance, understanding and peace.”
“We hope her legacy will continue to inspire through the books, films and resources she leaves behind,” the family said in a statement.
Zvi Schloss died in 2016. Eva Schloss is survived by their three daughters, as well as grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
LEGO announced its new SMART Play system at CES on Monday, adding interactive, responsive LEGOs to the famously analog franchise.
The SMART Play system includes a 2×4 brick, SMART Tag tiles, and SMART Minifigures. The SMART Bricks and Minifigures can sense nearby SMART Tags, which are 2×2 studless tiles with unique digital IDs that tell the Bricks and Minifigures how to act.
If the SMART Tag comes in a set for building a helicopter, for example, then the Smart Brick will light up and make propeller sounds that would help bring a helicopter to life. Its built-in accelerometer would make these lights and sounds more consistent with how you’re actually playing with the helicopter, since the Brick will be able to sense when the helicopter is zooming through the sky or turned upside down.
Image Credits:LEGO
The SMART Bricks are powered by a patented ASIC chip, which is smaller than the size of a single LEGO stud. The chip uses near-field magnetic positioning to recognize the Tags around it, as well as a miniature speaker, accelerometer, and LED array. LEGO also developed a Bluetooth-based protocol called BrickNet, which allows multiple SMART Bricks to recognize each other and operate in tandem. The company claims that BrickNet is protected by enhanced encryption and privacy controls (all of which is necessary, but imagine a world where hacking into toys wasn’t a concern!).
There’s no setup required to pair the elements of the SMART Play system, making it easy for kids to get started — and parents will be pleased to note that there are no screens involved in the SMART system at all. However, LEGO’s website says that there will be a SMART Tag for animating LEGO toilets, so… there’s that.
LEGO’s first two SMART Play sets — which are both Star Wars-themed — will launch on March 1, though preorders open on Friday. The “Luke’s Red Five X-wing” building set will retail for $69.99, while the larger “Throne Room Duel and A-wing” set will cost $159.99. These sets use the SMART Play system to animate characters like Luke Skywalker and Princess Leia, allowing them to interact with SMART Tags, which enable Lightsaber duels among other Star Wars-related capabilities.
Micro RGB TVs first arrived with little fanfare and a confusing name, so you may have mistaken it for other panel tech or not even noticed. That is not likely to be the case this year, though — it’s the hot new “luxury” display technology and is at . So why do we even need these new TVs and how are they different from OLED, Micro LED and Mini LED models? Here’s how it works and how it compares.
A brief history of flat panel display tech
To better understand Micro RGB, it helps to see how flat panel display technology has evolved over the last 20 years. The first LCD TVs used liquid crystals that become transparent to light when voltage is applied, letting a rear backlight shine through as a pixel. Those pixels combine to create moving or still images, with color created via an RGB filter layer placed in front.
The main problem is that LCD crystals let some light partially leak through, so blacks are dark grey instead of pure black. And for a backlight, early LCD TVs used a white screen lit by dim and power-hungry fluorescent lights, which caused uneven light distribution. And finally, the RGB filter color layer reduced a panel’s brightness.
The next step up, then, was to use LED backlights instead, placed at first at the edges of the white screen and then later directly behind it (the first TV with this tech was ). That added the benefits of higher brightness, lower power consumption, improved color balance and even light distribution. It also allowed individual dimming zones that improve contrast by allowing near-pure blacks in shadow areas of an image.
Samsung’s Neo QLED 8K TV from CES 2025 (Samsung)
Quantum dot (QD) technology came on the scene around 2013 with Sony’s Triluminos televisions. This type of LCD panel employs a semiconductor nanocrystal layer (rather than an RGB filter layer) that can produce pure monochromatic red, green, and blue light when struck with a blue backlight. Unlike previous LCDs, they offer higher brightness and color accuracy thanks to the purity (narrowness) of the base RGB colors. The best-known TVs using this tech are Samsung’s QLED models.
The latest evolution of QD LED technology is Mini LED. That combines the accuracy of quantum dot tech with hundreds or even thousands of LED dimming zones. Those models offer high brightness and color accuracy along with good contrast, but still don’t deliver perfect blacks and can display “blooming” in scenes with bright points of light due to leakage into neighboring pixels.
Both of those problems were solved with OLED technology, which first came on the market in 2007 with . The panels are made using sheets coated with organic LEDs, each paired with a transistor that can switch the LED on or off. On regular OLED TVs, OLED pixels are white and a filter layer generates colors, much as with LED TVs. However, with QD-OLEDs, OLED pixels are blue and color is created via a quantum dot layer, like LED QD displays. The latest version of QD-OLED featured on (Samsung’s 5th-gen QD-OLED) uses an RGB stripe pattern to reduce color “fringing” on text.
This is the first, and still the only widely commercialized TV tech that can switch its light source off on a pixel-by-pixel basis, allowing perfect black levels and near-infinite contrast. However, due to their organic nature, OLED TVs suffer from a lack of brightness and the potential for “burn-in” that can kill pixels.
There is another type of self-illuminating tech called Micro LED. Rather than organic, it uses microscopic inorganic LEDs to form the individual pixel elements. Those can also be turned on or off individually, so they offer the same pure blacks and sky-high contrast as OLED. At the same time they’re potentially brighter than OLED and don’t suffer from burn-in. The tech is still prohibitively expensive to manufacture, though, so none have arrived to market other than Samsung’s , which costs a cool $40,000.
Micro RGB
Devindra Hardawar for Engadget
Before talking about Micro RGB, let’s look at color space and gamut both for HDR, which uses the BT.2020 standard, and SDR, commonly associated with the REC.709 standard. REC.709 is ideal for regular HD content like TV broadcasts and YouTube videos. It can display a limited set of colors and brightness is generally capped at 100 nits.
BT.2020, however, is designed for high-end HDR streaming and 4K or 8K content creation (via Dolby Vision, HDR 10 or HDR10+). It has a much wider color gamut, meaning it can display a wider variety of colors and a bigger chunk of the visible color spectrum. It’s also designed for significantly higher brightness levels of 1,000 nits or more.
To achieve the color accuracy required for BT.2020, TVs must have extremely accurate red, green and blue pixels. Up until last year, the most color-accurate TVs used quantum dot technology and achieved a maximum of around 85 percent BT.2020 coverage (some projectors can cover 100 percent or more of the BT.2020 spectrum as they use RGB lasers to create colors).
That brings us to Micro RGB (also known as ), the most advanced LED panel yet. Unlike the uniform white or blue backlights found on Mini LED models, it features individually-controlled, precise red, green and blue LED backlights that shine through a liquid crystal layer. It also offers more local dimming zones. The net result is higher color accuracy and better contrast than regular Mini LED displays, but with potentially greater brightness than OLED. Since each pixel still can’t be turned on and off like OLED or Micro LED, though, contrast falls short of those technologies.
Wikipedia
So far, there is one and only one Micro RGB TV on the market, . The color accuracy is impressive with 100 percent coverage of the challenging BT.2020 HDR standard, an industry-first and huge leap over quantum dot tech. That means it can produce billions of colors natively and display a higher percentage of them in the visible spectrum than any TV to date.
Samsung left out a few key specs like the local dimming zone count, only saying that it has four times more than its similarly-priced 115-inch Q90F QLED model (so likely around 3,600). The company also failed to disclose the total brightness in nits, but the figure should be impressive given the potential of Micro RGB.
We were gobsmacked with the MR95F Micro RGB model in person. Engadget editor Sam Rutherford said it produced “stunningly rich and vivid colors that put Samsung’s other top-tier TVs to shame,” including the aforementioned Q90F. It also came with an equally stunning $29,999 price tag.
A couple of other manufacturers including have also released RGB Mini LED models similar to Samsung’s Micro RGB, but they differ slightly in that the RGB modules are larger than the ones found on Samsung’s latest TVs.
Which companies will have Micro RGB tech at CES 2026?
Samsung
Luckily, the number of Micro RGB TVs is about to dramatically increase. Earlier this month, Samsung a full lineup using the technology with 55-, 65-, 75-, 85-, 100- and 115-inch screen sizes, saying they’d set “a new standard for premium home viewing.” Those sets will also offer 100 percent BT.2020 HDR coverage under a new certification standard called Micro RGB Precision Color 100. While certainly likely to carry more reasonable prices than the first model, they’ll probably still be Samsung’s most expensive TVs when released later this year.
And on Sunday, Samsung also revealed a 130-inch Micro RGB prototype meant to showcase the technology. Once again, it blew us away partially just because of the huge size, but also due to the incredible “color accuracy and richness,” as Engadget editor Devindra Hardawar put it. “I couldn’t help but notice how everyone just looked a bit stunned, like the monkeys from 2001 seeing the monolith for the first time,” he added.
At the same time, LG its first Micro RGB “evo” TV lineup in 75-, 86- and 100-inch models. The company is also promising 100 percent BT.2020 color gamut coverage and said the sets will have over a thousand local dimming zones for color control. Not only that, it said that its new TVs will deliver 100 percent coverage in SDR modes as well, both for Adobe RGB and the challenge P3 standard.
It was interesting to compare LG’s Wallpaper and other OLED sets with the new Micro RGB tech, with our editor Devindra again being amazed. “LG already announced its Micro RGB set a few weeks ago, but that didn’t prepare me for standing in front of the 100-inch demo TV it brought to CES,” he said. “Throughout a variety of clips, colors looked wonderfully rich, and the overall texture of the images looked surprisingly life-like.”
In recent years, Google TV has been the company’s focus at the Consumer Electronics Show. That remains the case at CES 2026, but Google is also using the Las Vegas conference to promote Android XR.
Google has repeatedlyadvertised on the Sphere, with the marketing at CES 2026 focused on Android XR.
We see the Gemini spark give — in a somewhat heavy-handed manner — what’s clearly Samsung’s Galaxy XR to the Android Bot. General XR use cases include painting in 3D space (bring back Tilt Brush!), exploring virtual environments, gaming, and watching immersive content.
The ending tagline is “Gemini on Android XR. It’s a must-see.”

That strategy will be evident during a hearing Tuesday morning on several motions to compel information filed by Read’s team in recent months.
The hearing is expected to address requests from Read’s defense for Judge Mark Gildea to force several parties to produce information. Those parties are: former Massachusetts State Police trooper Michael Proctor, who led the criminal investigation into Read, the Norfolk County District Attorney’s office, which unsuccessfully prosecuted Read for O’Keefe’s death and suspended Canton Police Sgt. Sean Goode.
The hearing was also set to address a motion from the O’Keefe family seeking more information from Read in response to a formal questionnaire they sent her about her third-party claims. But both sides indicated in a new filing that they were working toward an agreement on that issue and asked to delay that component of the hearing.
O’Keefe’s family has accused Read of running him over with her SUV after a night of drinking in January 2022 — the same claim made by prosecutors during Read’s two criminal trials. They sued Read and the two Canton bars the couple drank at following the conclusion of Read’s first criminal trial. The suit was essentially paused until Read’s second trial ended with her acquittal in June.
Read is pursuing the same claim she made during the criminal case in the civil suit — that someone other than her is responsible for O’Keefe’s death and investigators conspired to frame her for his killing.
In court filings in the lawsuit, Read’s defense team has said it served Proctor, who was fired for his conduct in the investigation into Read, with two subpoenas seeking specific sets of documents. But they claim Proctor failed to respond to either subpoena within the agreed-upon timeframe to produce what they sought.
The documents are critical to Read’s defense because, her lawyers say, they could prove her claims that Proctor “deliberately ignored, manipulated and falsified evidence to direct the investigation away from other potential suspects and towards Read.”
Neither Proctor nor lawyers hired to represent him have opposed the motion to compel in court filings.
Read’s team has also sought information regarding Proctor from the district attorney’s office. Last fall, Proctor was forced to turn over his personal phone for review of information that could be relevant to other pending criminal cases. A defense attorney in an unrelated case who reviewed some of the information has said it showed “absolute bias” on his part. Read’s lawyers want to review that new information.
But the district attorney’s office has argued the request is “facially overbroad and unduly burdensome.”
“The defendant’s request for unfettered access to the entirety of this data would result in the production of privileged and non-relevant material, far exceeding the bounds of relevance surrounding the liability for Mr. O’Keefe’s death,” wrote Assistant Norfolk District Attorney Laura McLaughlin, who was on the team of lawyers that twice prosecuted Read.
But Read’s defense shot back in their own memo that “it is very likely, based on the select messages to and from Proctor she [Read] received in the past, that this cellphone extraction relates, at least in part, to Read.”
The district attorney’s office asks for Read’s motion to be denied given that she has also issued a subpoena to Proctor, whose phone is at the center of the dispute. They suggest that she could obtain the records she wants from him, rather than forcing the district attorney to turn them over, since the district attorney is already reviewing the material for information in criminal cases.
Prosecutors are turning over other documents from the prosecution of Read to both sides in the case, with a joint motion to keep some of those documents under a protective order filed late last month.
As for Goode, Read’s team served him a subpoena in November, which he has yet to reply to. Goode was placed on administrative leave by Canton Police that same month, apparently due to information found on Proctor’s phone, according to court papers and town officials. Read’s defense is seeking documents from him about his role in the Read investigation and the internal investigation into his conduct.
In addition to the affirmative defense she is pursuing in the wrongful death lawsuit, Read has sued Proctor and other investigators, as well as several civilian witnesses who testified against her, claiming violations of her civil rights. The witnesses have moved the case to federal court, though it could still be sent back to state court by a federal judge.
Thus far, Read has not asked to move the civil rights case back to the state court, but her team has indicated a desire to combine the two pending lawsuits.
A key deadline is approaching in the civil rights case: many of the defendants must file their answer to Read’s lengthy complaint by Jan. 16.
Self-driving trucks company Kodiak AI announced on Monday it is working with global automotive supplier Bosch to develop a system of hardware and software that can give standard big rigs autonomous driving capabilities.
The collaboration was announced at the 2026 Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, and it could help Kodiak bring its self-driving tech to more trucks, faster.
Kodiak, which is developing self-driving trucks for highway, industrial, and defense uses, has already developed and designed a self-driving system with redundant systems for braking, steering, sensors, and computers. In January 2025, Kodiak’s self-driving trucks began making driverless deliveries for Atlas Energy Solutions in the oil-rich Permian Basin of West Texas and eastern New Mexico.
Kodiak has since delivered at least eight self-driving trucks to Atlas Energy as part of an initial 100-truck order under an agreement between the two companies. Kodiak has been working with Roush Industries, which was the upfitter for its driverless trucks delivered to Atlas.
Now, the company, which went public via a merger with special-purpose acquisition company Ares Acquisition Corporation II in September 2025, wants to scale its tech for the truck masses.
Bosch and Kodiak will work together on redundant platforms designed to turn semi trucks — regardless of manufacturer — into driverless ones. Bosch will supply Kodiak with a variety of hardware components, including sensors and vehicle actuation components such as steering technologies. Notably, these systems can be added within the vehicle production line or by a third-party upfitter at a later date, according to Kodiak founder and CEO Don Burnette.
“We believe collaborating with Bosch will allow us to scale autonomous driving hardware with the modularity, serviceability, and system-level integration needed for commercial success for both upfit and factory-line integration,” Burnette said in a statement.
Techcrunch event
San Francisco | October 13-15, 2026
Paul Thomas, who is president of Bosch in North America and the company’s Bosch Mobility Americas division, appears to see this as opportunity for growth in the sector.
“By supplying production-grade hardware, we are enabling the next generation of autonomous trucking alongside Kodiak,” said Thomas in a statement. “Kodiak has already deployed trucks with no humans on board in commercial operation and this cooperation gives us a valuable opportunity to deepen our understanding of real-world autonomous vehicle requirements and to further enhance our offerings for the broader autonomous mobility ecosystem.”
While Kodiak’s plan is to scale and Bosch is keen to increase its market share in the sector, it’s unclear exactly when this will happen. Neither company provided a timeline for when these new systems might go into production or become available.
