CES 2026: Productivity Gear, Wireless TVs, and More

[MacRumors]

CES 2026 runs through tomorrow, but most of the media announcements and events have already taken place and MacRumors videographer Dan Barbera is wrapping things up with our third video highlighting some of the neat tech innovations being demoed on the show floor.

Among the new introductions this week are several from Clicks, the company that previously brought the BlackBerry-like physical Clicks Keyboard to the iPhone. CES 2026 is seeing the debut of the Clicks Power Keyboard, a pocket-sized Bluetooth keyboard for all of your devices that includes a 2,150 mAh battery and 5W Qi functionality to allow you to top off your phone if you're running low. There's also the Clicks Communicator, a communication-focused smartphone intended to be carried alongside your main phone.

Wireless TVs are also starting to become a thing, with Displace showing off its latest Displace Pro 2 set and the Displace Hub that can transform your existing TV into a wireless TV with integrated battery.

Popular Apple accessory company OWC has partnered with Strada to showcase a new remote video editing solution that leverages peer-to-peer technology rather than cloud-based storage, while Intricuit is on site to demo its accessory that turns your MacBook into a touchscreen Mac, so you don't need to wait for Apple to launch its rumored touchscreen MacBook Pro later this year or next year.

Dan also checked out Rokid's AI glasses, TDM's headphones that twist into a portable speaker, Antic's electric mini bike, Watchitude's AirTag-compatible watches for kids, and more, so watch the full video for a look at all of these products.

CES 2026 may be coming to a close, but be sure to check out our news hub where we've collected all of our coverage from the week.

I really have no interest in a touch screen Mac of any kind.

I really have no interest in a touch screen Mac of any kind.

Agree. Had it in my work PC and it took about 5 uses for the novelty to wear off. Basically used it for scrolling because Windows trackpads suck.

CES sure does showcase a bunch of garbage.

Also, when are smart glasses going to stop copying Buddy Holly?

Haha that's true. I've yet to find a PC trackpad that is even close to as good as a Mac's.

My Samsung does HDMI and power over one cord about as thin as a phone charger. I'm good with that. The idea of adding a battery to a TV seems expensive and pointless.

I really have no interest in a touch screen Mac of any kind.

There are definite niche cases for it. I dabble in entertainment/theatrical lighting and one of the big players in the lighting control market, ETC, has a controller that's supported on a number of hardware platforms. You can invest in one of their line of hardware controllers or you can download their software and run it on either a Mac or PC. In the vast majority of venues where I've encountered this product they run on 2 or more monitors, and at least one of them is a touch screen. It makes programming groups of lighting fixtures a lot easier and faster than relying on a keyboard and mouse. But the only times I've seen the touchscreens used with this product is on their hardware controllers and Windows PCs. It'll be nice if they start fully supporting touchscreens on Macs like they do on all their other platforms.

I have an uninterruptible power supply so I can gracefully shut down my entertainment center when I lose power. Started doing this when I had a DLP TV because I didn’t want to blow the bulb inside the set. Wouldn’t want a battery just for the TV personally.

 

[Lounge vibes 05]

I pre-ordered the Clicks power keyboard.
Surprised it’s taken this long for a product like that to exist.

How do you use a laptop touchscreen in any ergonomic way? Obviously I've never used one.

I have no interest in a touchscreen MacBook. Or any other laptop with a touchscreen. Finger prints all over the screen? Yuck!
How about a backlit keyboard? Or a mouse that's actually ergonomic? Or a Mac Mini that doesn't throttle itself when it gets hot? Or MacOS that isn't full of bugs?
I swapped to MacOS several years ago because Windows has become rubbish. Seems (to me) that MacOS is heading the same way.
End of rant.

Ahhh Yes. The "I have never needed a touch screen so no one needs one cause... of me" haters. Cool thing about a touch screen. If Apple sells one you NEVER NEED TO TOUCH IT. Others who might need a touch screen (there are a good few) can use it. Or, if affects price, Apple could offer it as a BTO (likely not their style). Personally, I find touch screens really useful. Flame away, NSC

Preordered the communicator. Hopefully its popular enough to inspire some others. I'd love a nothingberry. I think nothing would have an insane take on the form factor.

Exactly. I already have a wireless tv, it’s called an iPad.

Good video. As usual with every CES, there were some nice new interesting things this year. Always good to see the new TVs from Samsung and LG. Fun to see the interesting new tech.
