Four models target streaming, study, and work

The lineup includes the TCL TAB A1, TCL TAB A1 NXTPAPER, TCL TAB A1 Plus, and TCL TAB A1 Plus NXTPAPER. TCL built the range around two choices: screen size and display type, letting buyers pick the combination that fits their routine.

11-inch models favor portability, Plus versions add screen space

The 11-inch TAB A1 models measure 6.2mm thick, with 2.1K resolution and a refresh rate up to 90Hz, aimed at users who carry a tablet between home, school, and work.

Berlin – September 09, 2026 -- DUVA, a brand created by Fitnexa, unveiled DUVA ONE at IFA Berlin 2026, a sleep earbud system that adjusts audio and noise cancellation while a person is still asleep rather than just reporting data the next morning.

The earbuds respond to snoring partners and street noise mid-sleep

DUVA ONE pairs low-profile earbuds with a charging case that senses noise, light, temperature, and humidity in the bedroom. If a partner starts snoring or traffic gets louder, the system can boost active noise cancellation (ANC) or layer in sound masking automatically. A user might fall asleep to a podcast over Bluetooth, then have the system switch to locally stored sleep audio once they doze off, conserving battery in the process.

Berlin – September 09, 2026 -- MERACH has launched the UltraWalk W60 Plus walking pad in Europe, debuting the device on the opening day of IFA Berlin 2026. The pad is available for pre-order through September 20, 2026, at an Early Bird price of €379.99, down from its €459.99 recommended retail price -- an €80 saving.

The UltraWalk W60 Plus is aimed at people who want to add movement to their day without setting aside dedicated workout time, particularly those working from home. It runs on a brushless motor rated for up to 15,000 hours of operation, with a peak output of 3.5 HP.

An integrated Hall sensor keeps walking speed steady even at low intensity.

The sensor is designed to deliver precise and consistent speed control, which the company says is especially useful during slower walking sessions. A convection cooling system with two ventilation openings helps dissipate heat, allowing the pad to run continuously for up to three hours.

Berlin – September 09, 2026 -- Midea has unveiled VitaBreeze, a new air conditioning system that lets users direct airflow to specific spots in a room via smartphone, with a European launch set for early 2027. The product made its global debut at IFA 2026 in Berlin.

Smartphone control maps out airflow room by room

The system's AirGrid Intelligence feature scans a room's layout and gives users visual control over where cool or warm air goes, whether that's toward a yoga mat or away from a sofa spot prone to drafts. An extra-wide distribution angle aims to cover every corner of a room, and built-in person detection lets the unit follow occupants or steer clear of them, depending on preference.

Berlin – September 09, 2026 -- Robotics brand MOVA is showcasing three new concept technologies -- TactiPercept, Knot 80 and AstraX -- at IFA Berlin, previewing capabilities that go beyond current robot vacuums and mowers.

Founded only in 2024, MOVA built its product line without inheriting older hardware platforms, a factor the company says allowed it to design AI, sensors and robotics together from the start rather than retrofitting AI onto existing devices.

MOVA has already launched LiDAR-based robotic mowers within two years of founding

The company attributes its rapid product rollout to skipping legacy architecture constraints faced by established manufacturers. According to Lucy Wang, Product Manager on MOVA's Product Development Team, this let engineers evaluate each use case from scratch and select appropriate sensor and robotics technology before building long-term product platforms.

Berlin – September 09, 2026 -- Hisense is showcasing its AI Companion Suite at IFA 2026 in Berlin, demonstrating how connected appliances can handle everyday tasks from meal planning to laundry sorting with minimal user input.

The kitchen responds to a single question about what to cook

Asking "What should I make?" triggers the AI Companion Refrigerator to scan stored ingredients and suggest recipes based on personal preferences. Selecting a dish syncs the AI Companion Oven for automatic cooking, while the AI Companion Wine Cabinet recommends pairings and adjusts storage conditions. The AI Companion Dishwasher then reads dish conditions afterward and adjusts its cleaning cycle accordingly.

Laundry becomes a load-and-go process

The AI Companion Laundry Suite identifies clothing characteristics to automatically select wash and dry cycles, removing manual setting adjustments from the routine.
