Hoofddorp – September 08, 2026 -- EZVIZ is showcasing a new lineup of home security cameras, smart locks and AI-powered hubs at IFA 2026, occupying stand 175 in Hall 1.2 with what the company describes as its largest booth at the show.

Triple-lens cameras target long-distance monitoring

The 90f series, evolving from the earlier 90 Dual models, adds a third lens to the wired H90f and battery-powered HB90f cameras. Both use a 12x mixed zoom to capture detail across large properties such as ranches, marking what EZVIZ calls the start of triple-lens systems in professional-grade peripheral vision.

Compact 3K cameras offer 4G backup when Wi-Fi runs out

The 3K dual-lens series includes the base CB30 and higher-end CB60, both built around high-capacity batteries and magnetic mounts. The CB60 pairs an 8x zoom with switchable 4G-Wi-Fi connectivity, extending clear monitoring beyond standard Wi-Fi range.

Clearwater, Fla. – September 08, 2026 -- The National Safe Boating Council is urging boaters heading onto the water this Labor Day weekend to wear life jackets and use engine cut-off switches, citing federal data showing drowning as the leading cause of boating deaths.

Drowning caused 76% of boating fatalities in 2024

According to the 2024 U.S. Coast Guard Recreational Boating Statistics, drowning was the reported cause of death in 76% of all boating fatalities that year. Of those drowning victims, 87% were not wearing a life jacket at the time of the incident.

"Labor Day weekend is a wonderful time to celebrate the close of summer on the water, but safety must come first," said Peg Phillips, executive director of the National Safe Boating Council. She urged boaters to wear a life jacket, use an engine cut-off switch, and never operate a vessel under the influence.

Berlin – September 08, 2026 -- Poposoap showcased a complete solar-powered water garden setup at the Global Connect Show during IFA 2026, pairing a preformed pond with solar fountain and waterfall pumps for a DIY outdoor installation.

The display combined three products into one working water garden

The setup paired Poposoap's Rigid Preformed Plastic Pond with its Solar Fountain Pump and Solar Waterfall Kit, letting visitors see how the pieces work together without custom liner-cutting or professional wiring.

The pond ships pre-shaped so users just dig and drop it in

Instead of cutting or folding flexible liners, buyers excavate a hole matching the pond's shape and set it in place. Built-in planting zones are designed to support a more natural pond ecosystem, while the rigid structure holds shape under water pressure.

Berlin – September 08, 2026 -- UGREEN launched its new MagFlow lineup at IFA 2026, headlined by what it calls the world's first 25W Qi2 magnetic power bank with active micro-pump liquid cooling.

The jump from 15W to Qi2's 25W standard boosts charging speed by nearly 70%, but also increases heat buildup, which can throttle performance, slow charging, and degrade battery health over time. UGREEN's new lineup pairs active liquid cooling with passive heat-dissipation structures to manage this.

Berlin – September 08, 2026 -- Hisense has introduced its "Companion Living" concept at IFA 2026 in Berlin, built around a new AI platform called V AIOS and a companion suite of smart appliances designed to handle cooking, laundry, and home air and energy management.

V AIOS forms the brain behind the connected home

V AIOS, an evolution of the company's VIDAA operating system, is built on four AI capabilities: perceiving, reasoning, communicating, and acting. The system is designed to recognize people, devices, and surroundings, understand context and intent, and coordinate content and services across devices on a user's behalf.

Berlin – September 08, 2026 -- Boya has launched the Notra Neo, a compact AI note-taking device priced at $79.99, unveiled at IFA 2026. The device targets everyday users who want automated transcription and summaries from lectures, meetings, and calls without a premium price tag.

Three recording modes switch automatically depending on the situation

Notra Neo combines Ambient Recording, Phone Call Recording, and Bluetooth Recording in a single device. Ambient Recording picks up voices within a 5-meter, 360-degree range for lectures, meetings, and interviews. Phone Call Recording captures calls directly, while Bluetooth Recording connects to other devices to record online classes, virtual meetings, and video interviews.

Berlin – September 08, 2026 -- Lexar has unveiled the Muse Ultra-Slim Portable SSD, calling it the world's thinnest portable SSD, at IFA 2026 in Berlin as the company marks its 30th anniversary. The drive will launch in 512GB and 1TB capacities starting Q4 2026, with pricing and regional availability varying by market.

The Muse tapers to just 1mm at its edge

The card-like drive measures approximately 3.8mm at its thickest point, narrowing to 1mm at the edge, thanks to a precision-machined unibody metal enclosure formed from a single piece of metal. Inside, a custom ultra-thin PCB and high-density NAND stacking maximize space without sacrificing performance.

The drive attaches magnetically via Lexar's proprietary PogoPin connection and a supplied SnapLink Magnetic Cable, using a spring-loaded-pin interface and N52-grade neodymium magnets. A magnetic carry sleeve lets users mount the SSD directly to the back of compatible MagSafe iPhone models.

Berlin – September 08, 2026 -- OlloBot has brought its companion robot OlloNi SS1 to Europe for the first time, showcasing the device at IFA Berlin 2026 from September 4 to 8. The robot is on display at booth H1.2-174 under the theme "Touch. Feel. Connect."

While much of the robotics industry focuses on service bots, home assistants, and task-efficient humanoids, OlloBot is betting on emotional bonding instead. "The essential question is not just what robots can do, but what relationships they can build," said Lyn Fang, founder of OlloBot.

OlloBot positions its robot as a new 'Cyber Pet' category

The company describes Cyber Pet as a category sitting between emotional AI and physical AI, combining smart software with an embodied presence. OlloNi is designed to act as an AI partner that interacts with the physical world, adapts to changing preferences, and builds relationships through ongoing presence and shared experiences.
