Hisense Unveils Comprehensive Smart Home Ecosystem at CES 2026
During the 2026 Consumer Electronics Show (CES) held in Las Vegas, Hisense, a renowned leader in the consumer electronics and appliance industry, introduced a sophisticated smart home ecosystem. This initiative demonstrates how advanced display technologies and AI-activated appliances can work in harmony to enhance daily life.
The Hisense booth at CES 2026 was designed around real-world home scenarios, showcasing high-end entertainment systems alongside intelligent solutions for kitchens, climate control, and laundry. Central to family bonding moments are the large-screen televisions, while AI-powered appliances exemplified seamless technology integration into everyday routines. Notably, the humanoid service robot named Harley made its debut, featuring 31 degrees of freedom for realistic gestures and interactions aimed at increasing engagement and enhancing user experiences. The display also included the humanoid robot R1 (A2) and the domestic robot Beta, which complement the smart home environment.
Continuing its longstanding involvement in global sports events, Hisense highlighted the application of its display technologies beyond consumer entertainment. During the CES, the Hisense booth hosted a delegation led by the FIFA president, who expressed appreciation for the Hisense Elite lineup designed specifically for the FIFA World Cup 2026TM. This range includes RGB MiniLED televisions that provide a clearer view of match highlights.
When it comes to display technology, Hisense showcased its RGB MiniLED evo, marking a significant evolution in large-screen television systems with the launch of the 116UXS RGB MiniLED TV, the first product operating on this platform. The RGB MiniLED evo introduces a fourth sky blue-cyan LED in its backlighting, expanding color coverage to 110% of the BT.2020 standard. This advancement ensures more natural color expression and enhanced visual comfort, representing a true evolution in system design.
Hisense also unveiled the XR10 laser projector, delivering 6,000 ANSI lumens to create a professional-quality home cinema experience. Capable of immersive viewing up to 300 inches, the XR10 enhances brightness and rich color performance for dedicated home cinema settings. The MiniLED TVs and TriChroma Laser projectors broaden Hisense's large-screen offerings, catering to both high-end living room setups and specialized home cinema environments.
In a strategic collaboration with Microsoft, Hisense announced an integration of Copilot’s generative AI capabilities into its new VIDAA operating system. This partnership aims to offer next-generation television experiences for large-screen home environments, including access to world-class gaming via Xbox cloud gaming, negating the need for a console.
Beyond visual technologies, Hisense introduced a range of innovations targeting smart home functionality. Among these was the X-zone Master, the world’s first X-in-one heat pump washer-dryer, featuring a modular drum system. This allows users to customize configurations and perform more precise fabric care. The premium U series from Hisense is designed to provide a fresher and gentler laundry solution, incorporating cutting-edge filtration, ventilation, and static electricity elimination technologies.
Hisense is committed to improving daily life through an array of AI-enabled appliances. The PUREFLAT SMART SERIES refrigerator comes equipped with a large smart screen and an integrated ConnectLife Hub, streamlining interaction with appliances and smart home management. The Air Master air conditioner, winner of the Red Dot Award, includes highly accurate detection systems that adjust air flow, temperature, and humidity to achieve optimal indoor air quality. Its intelligence extends to an intelligent voice assistant and an energy-saving automatic mode, further enhanced by HI-NANO technology ensuring comfort indoors.
Hisense’s presence at CES 2026 was further highlighted by winning four CES Innovation Awards. Among the winners, the 163 MX and X-zone Master each received the CES 2026 Best of Innovation title in their respective categories, underscoring Hisense’s leadership in both screen and appliance segments.
Through its motto, “Innovating a Brighter Life,” Hisense continues to showcase how human-centered innovation can transform cutting-edge technology into more comfortable, connected, and meaningful personal experiences.
