Dell is bringing back the XPS laptop brand, and has redesigned the system to remove the controversial capacitive function row. This year’s XPS 14 and 16 are getting Intel’s Panther Lake processors, and a new 13-incher is coming later this year.

Intel finally unveiled the specs and speeds of its Panther Lake processors at CES, with the headline addition being a new lineup of X-series chips that sport a bigger GPU.

Jim Johnson, Intel’s Senior VP and GM of the Client Computing Division, will come on stage at 3:00 p.m. PT to talk about the Core Ultra Series 3 processors.

During his CES 2026 keynote, Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang introduced Vera Rubin NVL72, the company’s next-generation rack-scale AI accelerator. Rubin promises 5x greater inference performance and 10x lower cost per token than the last-gen Grace Blackwell NVL72 rack.

Samsung brought out the big guns at CES 2026, showing off six monitors, all aimed at different use cases. We walked away impressed with the “Odyssey 3D” and how convincing it was, but the company also had two new OLED displays, and even a 1,000 Hz-capable panel, alongside a 6K offering with dual-mode support.
