The idea of a smart home has long been defined by individual devices, each designed to solve a single task in isolation. But modern homes no longer operate in clean lines. Multi-level layouts, pets, kids, and yards that stretch from kitchen tile to sloped grass create environments where a single device rarely finishes the job. At CES 2026, Roborock is using that complexity as a design brief, especially for households across North America where scale and texture demand more than one kind of intelligence.
Roborock’s “The Greatest Meeting the Greatest” theme frames this as a meeting between world-class engineering and the realities of everyday living. This year’s lineup is less about one hero product and more about a family of specialists, from a flagship robot that can see and adapt in three dimensions, to a one-pass floor-care robot, a foam-based floor washer, and an AWD mower that treats the yard as part of the home.
Designer: Roborock
Intelligence in a home context means mastering complexity without constant supervision. The Saros 20, the brand’s flagship product for 2026, introduces StarSight Autonomous System 2.0, with dual-transmitter 3D time-of-flight LiDAR and 21,600 sensor points. This innovation allows the Saros 20 to map spaces, recognize over 200 obstacle types, and distinguish cables from socks or pet bowls, making it even smarter than the previous-gen Saros 10R flagship. At 7.98 cm tall, it slides under low furniture while understanding the space in three dimensions, which matters in homes with layered messes and tight clearances.
AdaptiLift Chassis 3.0 is the mechanical side of that intelligence, lifting and adjusting three wheels independently to cross double-layer thresholds up to 8.5 cm tall, climb onto carpets as thick as 3 cm, and free itself when stuck. Layouts where balcony lips, thick rugs, and split-level transitions trap lesser robots become manageable terrain. Saros 20 learns the best way to cross each threshold and remembers it, treating obstacles as solvable puzzles rather than dead ends.
That philosophy extends outdoors with RockMow X1 LiDAR, Roborock’s first-ever lawnmower for the US market, using 360-degree mechanical LiDAR and dual-camera fusion to map properties up to two acres with trees, slopes, and visually sparse patches. Centimeter-level accuracy and AWD traction let it handle uneven terrain and stay oriented in yards where GPS or boundary wires struggle. It understands a yard the way Saros 20 understands a living room, identifying obstacles and terrain changes autonomously.
Performance shows up as power that delivers consistent results when the mess is layered or the surface changes mid-run. Saros 20’s 35,000 Pa HyperForce motor and dual anti-tangle system, the DuoDivide main brush and FlexiArm Arc side brush, pick up hair and debris without wrapping. Dual spinning mops with up to 13 N downward pressure handle dried stains, managing pet hair in thick carpets, kitchen crumbs, and seasonal grit.
Qrevo Curv 2 Flow is positioned as a one-pass floor-care specialist. Its 270 mm extra-wide roller, 15 N downward pressure, and 220 RPM scrubbing cover more ground in a single sweep. The Roller Shield lifts and covers the mop before carpets, preventing damp spots, while the Edge-Adaptive roller mop gets within 10 mm of baseboards and furniture legs, handling mixed flooring without constant re-passes or wet carpets.
F25 Ace Pro brings foam chemistry to wet-dry cleaning. JetFoaming technology turns 1 ml of Foam Cleaning Solution into 167 million microbubbles that cling to grease and dried spills, softening and encapsulating them before 25,000 Pa suction, 30 N pressure, and 430 RPM scrubbing lift them away. This is designed for kitchens with oil splatter, entryways with mud, and pet zones where layered messes need more than just water.
Fitting into daily life means handling hygiene and maintenance without becoming another source of work. Qrevo Curv 2 Flow’s self-cleaning dock separates clean and dirty water, washes the roller at 75 °C, and dries it with warm air. The dock handles sticky spills and pet zones without turning into another thing that needs scrubbing every weekend, keeping the system fresh and ready without manual intervention.
F25 Ace Pro’s ergonomics focus on the moments when you are holding the device. FlatReach 2.0 lets it lie flat at 180 degrees to reach under furniture at 12.5 cm height, while SlideTech 2.0 uses AI-powered wheels to sense push and pull strength and assist movement, making it feel lighter and more responsive. The 0 mm edge cleaning on three sides and 95 °C self-washing and drying keep the roller fresh.
Saros 20’s RockDock and app ecosystem extend that design philosophy. The dock uses 100 °C hot water to wash mops, bi-directional scrubbing and soaking modes, heated air drying, and auto mop removal before carpets. The Roborock app’s SmartPlan 3.0 learns room types and habits, while pet-friendly intelligence, built-in “Hello Rocky” voice control, and Matter support help the system blend into routines rather than adding another app to babysit.
RockMow X1 LiDAR handles the seasonal realities of yard maintenance. AWD traction and 8 cm obstacle clearance manage wet spring grass, summer growth, and autumn leaves, with a 24 cm cutting width and 40-90 mm cutting range tuned for common lawn types. It is built for properties with trees, slopes, and visually sparse patches where GPS alone would struggle, using LiDAR and cameras to stay oriented across terrain that changes throughout the year.
RockMow represents a broader shift from room-by-room cleaning to full-property autonomy. While Saros 20 and Qrevo Curv 2 Flow handle floors and carpets, and F25 Ace Pro tackles kitchens and hard floors, RockMow extends that philosophy to the yard. The result is a set of tools that treat the home as a continuous environment, indoors and out, rather than a collection of disconnected chores that each require their own app, setup, and maintenance schedule.
Roborock’s CES 2026 lineup feels less like a handful of new gadgets and more like a coordinated attempt to match the scale and texture of modern living. Intelligence, performance, and design show up differently in a kitchen, a living room, and a sloped backyard, but the throughline is the same across North America and beyond: systems that adapt to the mess, the layout, and the people, instead of asking households to adapt to them.

The day often begins and ends with a smartphone, from checking notifications before getting out of bed to scrolling in the dark when you should be asleep. Even people who care about design and well-being end up with glowing rectangles on every surface, and that constant presence quietly shapes attention, sleep, and mood more than most of us like to admit. The usual fix is another app that promises to help you use your phone less, which is like asking the problem to solve itself.
Mudita has been quietly building devices meant to step in where traditional smartphones can cause the most trouble. At CES 2026, that takes the form of three products: Mudita Kompakt, a minimalist E Ink phone, Mudita Harmony 2, a mindful alarm clock with an E Ink display, and Mudita Bell 2, an analog-style alarm clock with a few carefully chosen digital tricks. Together, they sketch out a different way to move through a day, keeping connections and routines intact while pushing screens out of the moments where you may choose to be “disconnected.”
Designer: Mudita
Kompakt looks more like a small e-reader than a slab of glass, built around a 4.3-inch E Ink screen that is paper-like, glare-free, and easy on the eyes. It runs MuditaOS K, a de-Googled operating system based on AOSP, with only essential tools on board: calls, SMS, offline maps, calendar, up-to-date weather forecasts, music, notes, a meditation timer, and an e-reader. There is no app store by design, keeping the interface focused on what you planned to do instead of what a feed wants to show you next. But if you do need some very specific functionality, your favorite apps are just a sideload away.
Offline+ Mode physically disconnects the GSM modem and microphones, while also disabling Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and the camera, turning Kompakt into a sealed, offline device when needed. That hardware-level privacy goes beyond airplane mode, which matters when you want verifiable disconnection. Long battery life, up to six days on a charge, and both USB-C and wireless charging mean it can live on a desk or in a bag without constant topping up.
A dedicated Mudita Center desktop app handles contact syncing, music, and file transfers from a laptop, keeping the phone itself simple and uncluttered, its user experience reflecting its mission. As a primary phone for someone stepping away from feeds, it keeps communication and navigation intact while stripping away most reasons to pick it up mindlessly. As a secondary focus phone for anyone who wants to disconnect from the hustle of a smartphone, it can handle calls and texts without the usual app notifications to help nurture balance and peace of mind.
Harmony 2 is an E Ink alarm clock with three physical knobs on top for light, volume, and alarm settings, designed to live where a phone usually sits on a nightstand. The E Ink display is easy to read and uses an adjustable warm backlight that minimizes blue light, so you can check the time at night without a blast of white light or the temptation to swipe through notifications that make it harder to fall back asleep.
The wake-up experience is built around a gradual, ascending alarm that starts softly and increases in volume, paired with a pre-wake-up light that mimics a sunrise by slowly brightening five to fifteen minutes before the main alarm. Harmony 2 offers seventeen melodies, including real nature sounds, and lets you enhance alarms with light or upload custom audio via the Mudita Center app. The goal is to make waking feel less like an interruption and more like a natural transition.
Extra features support a phone-free bedtime, Relaxation mode with customizable sounds and white noise, a Bedtime Reminder to nudge you into a consistent routine, a Meditation Timer with gong sounds, and a Power Nap Mode. With over forty days of battery life and USB-C charging, Harmony 2 can stay on a nightstand without becoming another device you plug in every night, reinforcing the idea that the bedroom can be a low-tech space.
Bell 2 is the more analog-leaning sibling, an alarm clock with a clear, minimalist dial and an internal quartz mechanism, but also an E Ink display and a light-enhanced gradual alarm. It offers nine gentle melodies and a pure-tone alarm that starts quietly and grows to a set volume, plus a warm wake-up light that can be activated before the alarm to mimic sunrise, easing you out of sleep without a harsh jolt.
A built-in meditation timer starts and ends sessions with a gong, and the deliberate absence of Wi-Fi or Bluetooth means Bell 2 does not compete for attention or add to the ambient connectivity load in the room. It runs on a 2,600 mAh rechargeable battery that can last up to six months on a full charge, with USB-C for the rare times it needs topping up. It is designed to be set and then mostly forgotten.
Bell 2 has been awarded a Platinum Calm Technology Certification, recognizing products that respect attention and promote well-being. Available in charcoal black and pebble gray, it is meant to blend into different interiors while still feeling like a considered object. In a home shaped by Kompakt and Harmony 2, Bell 2 completes the picture: a simple, focused object that reflects Mudita’s belief that technology can be present without being intrusive.
Together, Kompakt, Harmony 2, and Bell 2 create intentional, screen-free moments throughout the day; focused time on the go with Kompakt, a calmer evening and wake-up routine with Harmony 2, and a simple, analog-leaning start to the morning with Bell 2. None of these is meant to replace a smartphone entirely. Instead, they offer a considered alternative for the moments when a screen adds little value. This is an approach that stands out at CES, where innovation is often defined by more features, rather than more thoughtful use.
