The CES 2026 show floor is packed with all kinds of devices, from questionably practical to amazingly innovative. And yeah, heaps of concept devices, too. As usual, devices with next-gen display tech drew a lot of attention, and this year, it was TCL that powered two of the most promising devices that might soon land on the shelves.  

A foldable for the masses?

Motorola revealed its first book-style foldable phone at the show, and this one could again rewrite the rules for the market. Featuring a flexible 8.1-inch 2K LTPO panel supplied by TCL China Star Optoelectronics Technology (TCL CSOT), the device stood out with its sleek build and signature looks. 

The latest offering from the Lenovo-owned brand, dubbed the Razr Fold, packs a 6.6-inch external screen, a trio of 50-megapixel cameras at the back, and a top-tier Qualcomm silicon. But what truly sets the device apart, hopefully, is the asking price.

Now, Motorola hasn’t officially revealed the asking price of its upcoming foldable phone, but if the history of clamshell-style Razr phones is anything to go by, this one’s going to undercut the foldable phones offered by the likes of Google and Samsung, among others.  

An absurdly practical gaming laptop  

When it comes to gaming, bigger is always better. However, beyond the 17-inch form factor, you won’t get many mainstream options in the gaming laptop segment. It would be unwise to make anything bigger because it would beat the whole purpose of a mobile gaming station.  

Lenovo and TCL have other plans. Say hello to the Legion Pro Rollable Concept, a gaming laptop that comes equipped with a rollable Lenovo PureSight OLED Gaming display. In the normal state, you get a 16-inch display for work and play. 

But thanks to the built-in dual motors, the display expands from both sides, first reaching a 21.5-inch canvas, and then expanding further into a wide-format 24-inch screen tailored for immersive gaming. It’s also packed to the gills with Intel’s top-tier silicon and an Nvidia GeForce RTX 5090 graphics.

Windows 11 is getting Copilot on Microsoft 365 Business accounts again, unless you’re in Europe
The Office update method isn't an accident. It's specifically harder to block than the usual Microsoft Store install route.
Text, Computer Hardware, Electronics

In April 2026, Microsoft finally caved to user complaints and made Copilot removable from Windows 11. It became one of the most controversial additions to the operating system in years, which is why the company had to take such a drastic step. 

Two months later, it is installing it again. The only thing that has changed is the method. The bad news is that the new method is harder to stop. The good news, however, is that the change doesn’t affect all Windows 11 users. In fact, it doesn’t affect a majority of them.

Timekettle’s new X1 Meeting Hub does real-time translation for 50 people and fits in your pocket
Fifty participants, five languages, one 199-gram hub, and no booth required.
Electronics, Screen, Computer Hardware

Professional conference interpretation setups are notoriously painful. Dedicated booths, trained interpreters, bulky hardware, and a bill at the end of every month that makes you rethink whether the meeting was even required in the first place. 

Timekettle wants to collapse all of that into a single hub that weighs 199 grams (less than modern flagship smartphones). The company just launched the X1 Meeting Interpreter Hub.

Apple MacBook Air M5 review: Boring has never been this good
MacBook Air M5

Quick Take

The MacBook Air M5 is what happens when Apple keeps refining an already excellent laptop instead of reinventing it. On paper, the upgrades feel modest. The design is unchanged, the display is still 60Hz, and the M5 chip isn't delivering the dramatic leap that makes last year's model instantly obsolete. Yet after spending two weeks with it, none of that really matters.
