Ever had to rescue your robot vacuum from the ledge between your kitchen and lounge? I have, and it sort of ruins the robot experience – if I can say that without sounding too spoilt. But Roborock might finally have the answer with its new Saros 20. Shown off at CES 2026, it packs a brand-new mobility system called AdaptiLift Chassis 3.0. This system can actually lift the robot’s body to conquer double thresholds up to 3.3-inches tall. It also raises itself intelligently when it hits carpet, keeping its suction and brushes in contact without turning your rug into a…

Artworks that can be swapped with a swipe aren’t so sci-fi now that colour E Ink frames are a thing, but it takes more than simply going big if you want real wow factor. InkPoster’s latest isn’t just the world’s largest digital color art poster – the A1 installation sits in a fame hand-crafted by legendary Italian design house Pininfarina. At more than a meter wide, the InkPoster x Pininfarina Duna is a proper statement piece. The 40.5in/A1 dimensions put every other ePaper poster to shame, while its E Ink Spectra 6 screen can show 60,000 convincing colours without the…

I’ll be honest, I wasn’t all that intrigued by the idea of a pool cleaner. That is until I saw Mammotion’s Spino S1 Pro at CES 2026 – from the team behind one of my favourite robot mowers. I don’t have a pool, but watching this thing in action made me want one more than I already do – it’s one of the most impressive gadgets I’ve seen at the show. Pool cleaners are usually complicated with tangled cables and lifting heavy robots out of the water. Or in worst case scenarios, rescuing something that gets stuck halfway through a…

If you don’t have air conditioning, escaping the summer heat can be a nightmare. It’s a problem I face in the one week of decent weather we get in the UK. Open windows won’t do much if the weather’s heavy and your walls are built for chilly winters, and fans often only move around the warm air. Fortunately, I’ve found my next must-have for the summer. At CES 2026, Dreo unveiled its TurboCool range of fans, which includes tower, desk, and outdoor options. These are misting fans, which blast out a very fine spray of water to cool your room…

Crime series are one of the most popular kinds of TV shows on at the moment, and anyone interested has tons of options to choose from. Netflix has eagerly embraced the genre, with series like Narcos, Ozark, and the Monster series all building huge fanbases. But with so many such series, it’s easy for new ones to fly under the radar. Million-Follower Detective, a new series that dropped on Thursday, February 12, is one such show. This smart, digestible Taiwanese potboiler is very much worth your time. Million-Follower Detective is up-to-the-minute A crime show set in 2026 Million-Follower Detective mainly…

The Dreame X50 Ultra Complete is one of our favourite robot vacuums. It scored a full five stars in our review, and we declared it “an unbelievably clever robot vacuum and mop that uses robotic legs to clear thresholds, offers superior cleaning and even cleans itself.” At CES 2026, Dreame pulled the wraps off the X60 Max Ultra Complete. While the name leaves much to be desired, this looks like a robot you want roaming around your floors. The smart home brand has taken the excellent X50 dust-sucker and made it smaller so it can clean in even more places.…

I’m sure old farts like me increasingly bang on about peak Apple. The good old days that followed the very, very bad old days when it felt like the company might wink out of existence entirely. But Steve Jobs returned and the hits kept coming. iMac. iPod. iPhone. iPad. Apple was a hardware company making fantastic hardware. But to make people want to use it, Apple made great software too – and obsessed over the details. Sure, there were flubs, and you’d need to be spectacularly naive to think Apple didn’t also care about money. This was, after all, a company that needed an awkward cash…

Most camera-equipped bird feeders are the ornithological equivalent of a video doorbell, but the Birdfy Feeder Vista is more like one of those fancy 360-degree action cams. Rather than capturing up-close-and-personal footage that makes any flying visitors to your garden look like a dodgy bunch of seed stealers, the Birdfy Feeder Vista has a back-to-back dual-lens camera on top that shoots 6K video at 30fps (or 2K at 120fps if you fancy a bit of slow-mo action) so you get a proper panoramic view of your feathered friends when they land for a bit of scran. It’ll also snap 14MP…

Streaming your music is great until you hit a patch with no connectivity or a long flight where you might need to download your music. Being able to download your music to your phone also sounds great, until you realize that Spotify’s online cache is eating up more storage than the music itself. Apart from adding features no one really asked for, Spotify can’t seem to figure out local storage. For anyone on a small SSD or a phone with limited storage, that means several gigabytes of space disappearing without a clear explanation from the app. Offline downloads and cache…

Streaming services were meant to be the end of expensive cable subscriptions packed with channels you don’t need. But we’ve come full circle, and the promise of cheaper platforms filled with all the shows you want to watch has become the very thing it set out to replace. Given you could easily end up spending more than 100 bucks a month to subscribe to all of the top streaming services, it’s no wonder that folks are looking for cheaper alternatives. But those cheaper services aren’t always what they seem, and in some cases, they’re an outright scam. MoxiPlayer isn’t what…
