"IFA, short for Internationale Funkausstellung Berlin, meaning International Radio Exhibition Berlin because it started in 1924 when radios were the hottest things in tech, doesn't see as many major gadget announcements as CES. Still, it's Europe's largest tech show to close out summer, and this year the show doubled down on the stuff its Messe Berlin convention halls are typically known for: smart home gear and robots."
"The Legion Go 2 will cost you an arm and a leg, and then Lenovo will still demand more than $1,050 for its revised handheld PC. And still, the device is enticing thanks to its 8.8-inch OLED screen and variable refresh rate (VRR) between 30Hz and 144Hz. The more ergonomic controls may make it easier to hold for longerwhich may help considering the upgraded 74Wh battery should let you game for longer."
"The Deebot X11 OmniCyclone has a few things going for it that make it stand out from Roombas and the suddenly very competitive market of robovacs. There's an onboard AI model that Ecovacs says helps the X11 better understand when to clean based on your habits; improved motors help it get over gaps where different floor materials meet; and there's a built-in GaN fast-charging technology that supposedly lets it recharge while it's rinsing its mop."
IFA 2025 is Europe's largest late-summer tech event. The event prioritized smart home gear and robots while still presenting laptops, speakers, and unusual concept devices. Standout winners included the Lenovo Legion Go 2 handheld PC, featuring an 8.8-inch OLED, 30–144Hz VRR, ergonomic controls, and a 74Wh battery at over $1,050. The Ecovacs Deebot X11 OmniCyclone adds an onboard AI model, improved motors, and GaN fast-charging enabling recharge during mop rinsing. Eufy’s MarsWalker accessory equips a robot vacuum with arms and legs for climbing, creating a sci-fi aesthetic. The event reflected the increasingly competitive robovac market and a trend toward integrating AI and advanced charging technologies into household robots.
