The international technology trade show IFA 2026 in Berlin has concluded, leaving a clear mark on the future of consumer electronics. 

This year’s event was defined by the shift of artificial intelligence (AI) from theoretical demonstration to practical application, with devices focused on on-device AI, full smart home coordination, and innovative form factors that save time and simplify everyday life.

Xiaomi 18 Fold

The Xiaomi 18 Fold is the company’s new foldable flagship and the central computing hub of the Human × Car × Home ecosystem, standing out as the first device equipped with the 3nm XRING O3 processor (octa-core processor with a 200 TOPS NPU for local AI model execution) and the groundbreaking LPDDR6 RAM up to 16 GB.

In terms of design, it adopts a compact "passport" (mid-fold) form factor with an upgraded Dragon Bone hinge to minimize creasing, IP58 and IP59 water and dust resistance certification, a 7.58-inch LTPO OLED internal display, and a 5.38-inch external display.

The camera system bears the signature of Leica with a 200 MP main sensor, as well as two additional 50 MP sensors (ultrawide and periscope telephoto), while the massive 6,000 mAh battery supports 67W wired charging, 50W wireless charging, and full connectivity through the HyperOS operating system.

LG ThinQ ON

LG ThinQ ON functions as the central AI Home Hub for the smart home, supporting the Matter and Thread protocols for universal device connectivity. 

By integrating the ThinQ Claw digital agent, the device analyzes the context of the user's daily life by combining data from the calendar and their habits, in order to proactively carry out complex automations for lighting, temperature, and home appliances without the need for individual commands.

Lenovo Project AeroBlade

Lenovo Project AeroBlade is a 14-inch concept laptop with an impressively slim thickness of under 10 millimeters and an extremely low weight of just 830 grams. 

Its main technological achievement is the complete elimination of mechanical fans, which are replaced by solid-state cooling units (solid-state cooling by Frore Systems), ensuring completely silent operation, zero vibrations, and high thermal conductivity in a minimal-volume chassis.

Acer Project DualPlay Mini

The Acer Project DualPlay Mini is an innovative 2-in-1 hybrid device that combines a gaming handheld and a mini laptop with an 8-inch display.

Thanks to the special "flip-and-swivel" hinge mechanism, it allows the device to be instantly transformed from a handheld console with integrated side controls into a compact Windows laptop with a physical keyboard, offering full flexibility for both gaming and productivity tasks.

Anker MagGo Power Bank 2 Pro

The Anker MagGo Power Bank 2 Pro is a 10,000 mAh portable charger that stands out as one of the first devices on the market to support the new Qi2.2 wireless charging standard for speeds of up to 25W with magnetic alignment. 

At the same time, it offers fast wired charging via USB-C and integrates a smart digital display that shows in real time the exact battery percentage, input/output power in Watts, and the remaining time until fully charged.

XGIMI Aura 3 Max

XGIMI Aura 3 Max is one of the most impressive announcements in Home Cinema. 

The first UST (ultra-short throw) "laser TV" projector to offer 4K resolution at 120Hz. It uses triple laser with dual IRIS, delivering 5,700 ISO lumens, 8,000:1 native contrast, and support for Dolby Vision and IMAX Enhanced. 

In addition, it comes with built-in 80W sound from Harman Kardon, making it ideal for both movies and gaming.

Miele Diamond G8

In the field of smart home appliances, Miele introduced the Diamond G8, the world’s first dishwasher with an integrated artificial intelligence camera inside the door. 

The camera recognizes what kind of dishes have been loaded into the dishwasher and automatically adjusts the program, optimizing the use of water, energy, and detergent (through automatic dosing). 

In addition, it is designed to operate during hours when energy is cheaper.
