Lenovo Yoga AIO i Aura Edition desktop — Lenovo

The likes of Dell, HP, and Lenovo have been offering sleek all-in-one (AIO) desktop PCs for years, but Apple usually takes the cake with the iMac. The mix of reliable performance, ecosystem perks, and peppy design often keeps it at the top of my recommendation list. At CES 2026, Lenovo is redrawing the lines with one of the most beautiful AIO machines I have ever seen.

An eye candy with practical perks

Lenovo’s latest is the Yoga AIO i Aura Edition, a desktop with a floating glass design, similar to the LG Wallpaper TV that was announced a few days ago. The glass portion at the base of the screen is part of a seamless monolithic design, and it actually lights up.

Now, this isn’t just any light. Instead, it dances to the tune of whatever you are watching on the screen, almost like one of those mood light kits. But it has a functional side to it, as well, when you’re not in the binge-watching or gaming mood.

Lenovo says the Adaptive Lighting in the glass portion will also light up in response to notifications. Moreover, the light colors are customizable, so you can set a distinct hue for each kind of software alert. To go with it, the Yoga AIO i Aura Edition also throws Karmon Kardon speakers with Dolby Atmos tuning into the mix.

Plenty of substance, too

Now, the latest desktop from Lenovo is not all about lights and sleek aesthetics. There’s plenty of substance here that even makes the iMac feel outdated. To start, you get a much sharper 4K OLED screen up front, instead of the LCD display on Apple’s desktop.

Additionally, the display supports up to 165Hz refresh rate, putting it squarely in the territory of gaming hardware. It comes equipped with Intel’s latest Core Ultra X7 358H processor, paired with 32GB of RAM and up to 2TB of storage. There’s even a dedicated privacy shutter for the webcam.

The 16-megapixel webcam module at the top also sits alongside an IR sensor, which enables biometric authentication using face unlock. There are a pair of USB-C and USB-A ports, each, at the back, alongside another USB-C port on the side.

Overall, it’s one of the most stylish and well-equipped desktop PCs heading to the market, and it will likely win some iMac converts. The Lenovo Yoga AiO i Aura Edition starts at $2,399.99 and will be available in the second quarter of 2026.

YouTube’s AI content labels are getting a much-needed makeover

No more hunting through descriptions. YouTube's AI labels are finally moving front and center.

YouTube ai declaration longform video

This year’s Google I/O marked the transition of Google from a search company to a fully AI-focused company. The company launched several AI tools, but the one that matters the most for YouTubers is Google Omni, built for video generation and editing.

While tools like Omni lower the barrier for creators, which is a good thing, it also results in the platform being inundated with low-effort AI content. The company understands that this will annoy a large percentage of its users, so it has been asking creators to disclose AI-generated content since 2024.

AI models have a religion favoritism problem, and new research exposes it

AI models are subtly steering users toward certain religions, and most people have no idea it's happening.

Artificial Intelligence

A new research consortium has found something worth paying attention to: when you ask AI about grief, love, loss, or moral decisions, it almost never brings religion into the conversation.

The Consortium for Evaluation of Faith and Ethics in AI (CEFE-AI), a collaboration among researchers at Brigham Young University, Baylor University, the University of Notre Dame, and Yeshiva University, published its findings this week at the Summit on AI Ethics in Athens, Greece.

iOS 26.6 alerts you upon running out of blocked contacts limit, and that’s a problem

iOS 26.6's only known new feature is a better error message for a problem Apple, carriers, and regulators have all declined to actually fix.

Electronics, Mobile Phone, Phone

Today, Apple seeded the first beta of iOS 26.6 to developers, and so far, it contains exactly one known feature. It’s an alert that tells you when you've run out of space on your blocked contacts list. That's right, and that’s it.

The fact that Apple had to ship this new alert at all says something uncomfortable about how the company has handled the spam call problem, along with carriers and regulators.
