 TVs are a staple of CES, and so far, manufacturers have not disappointed with their announcements at CES 2026. Companies including Samsung, LG and others came to the event ready to show off updates to existing display tech and some genuinely new technologies. OLED and Mini LED remain central to most lineups, while Micro RGB has emerged as one of the most talked-about developments at the show so far, especially at the higher end of the TV market.
Below are the TV announcements that stood out most from the pre-show events and early press conferences, with more expected as CES continues. Also, be sure to check out our best of CES 2026 list.

 If you've ever bought a bag of spinach only to come home and realize you already had a bag of spinach, you may appreciate this fridge. I had a chance to check out the GE Profile Smart Fridge with Kitchen Assistant at CES and was surprised to find I kinda wanted one. To be perfectly honest, most attempts I've seen at the show to "stick some AI in it" are at best amusing but usually completely unnecessary.
Here, though, the AI has a purpose. After seeing how the autofill water dispenser worked, I asked the GE Appliance reps how easy it was to change the fridge's water filter. Jason May, a GE Appliances product management executive, walked up to the fridge's (appropriately sized) touchscreen and said "Hey HQ, where's my water filter?" (HQ is short for SmartHQ, GE Profile's assistant). Then, relying on information it had gathered from this model's user manual, the AI assistant explained exactly where to find it (in the left hand door below the ice maker). It took another rep about two seconds to pop out the filter and, justlikethat, the task was on its way to done.
As for the spinach conundrum, that's handled by a crisper drawer camera, called Fridge Focus. Each time you open the drawers, a built-in camera (that you can physically shutter or turn off in the app) takes a video snapshot of what's left when you're done. So if you're at the store and wondering how much kale you already have, you can take a peek and see.

The latest test version of Copilot in Edge includes a "Browser Actions" toggle, which gives Copilot access to your Edge profile—that includes logins, saved passwords, browsing history, and cookies. This allows the AI assistant to effectively act as you on your behalf to launch pages, click on links, and fill out forms without annoying login prompts.
Another new feature is called "Journeys," which allows Copilot to analyze the last seven days of your browsing history to create summaries and "cards" on the new tab page. Microsoft emphasizes that all your data is kept local and isn't used for AI training or advertising purposes. However, the feature does require a Microsoft account.
Microsoft also emphasizes that Copilot can't control Windows outside the Edge browser or bypass passwords and two-factor authentication. You must authorize access and manually send tabs to Copilot. It isn't yet clear when this deeper integration will be released in full.
