Today’s Apple Insider Roundup
Jackery's new Explorer 1500 Ultra is a rugged & portable power station
The Jackery Explorer 1500 is built with adventures in mind, with IP65 dustproof and water resistance, fully sealed ports, and enhanced structural integrity, so it’ll at least survive CES 2026.
Portable power stations are meant to go with you to wherever power might be needed. However, most can’t survive in common outdoor conditions where dust, sand, rain, and other things could ruin the electrical devices.
The Explorer 1500 Ultra is built to withstand these external problems and much more, and it has just been revealed by Jackery at CES 2026.
You'll have new ways to charge your gear thanks to Baseus
At CES 2026, charging brand Baseus launched several new power products, including a new MagSafe battery, an ultra-small power bank, and a powerful desktop solution.
Headlining the announcements is the Baseus PicoGo AM52 MagSafe battery. It’s a Qi2.2 25W-certified battery that is one of the thinnest on the market to date.
It also has a USB-C port capable of 45W of wired power in and out. Utilizing new proprietary Triple-Loop Cooling technology, it’s able to keep its temperature low and maintain charging speeds.
Xreal's 1S spatial glasses & Neo hub arrive with Real 3D
The latest spatial display glasses from Xreal can convert all in-display content to 3D, and with the Neo DisplayPort and battery hub, it can stream games from the Nintendo Switch 2. Here’s what Xreal is showing off at CES 2026.
Apple may have embraced the concept of spatial computing with Apple Vision Pro, but Xreal has been pushing a simpler concept with its glasses. Instead of a full operating system of windows and apps, Xreal spatial glasses display a single floating window in front of the user to show a connected device’s output.
The Xreal 1S is the company’s latest iteration, introduced at CES 2026, and it brings upgraded specs and a new Real 3D view mode. There’s also the Xreal Neo, a MagSafe hub that contains a 10,000 mAh power bank and DisplayPort connectivity.
Flow 2 robot vacuum anchors Narwal's CES 2026 product refresh
Narwal has unveiled its Flow 2 robot vacuum and expanded cleaning lineup at CES 2026 on January 4, with a greater push of AI cleaning.
Narwal’s 2026 product refresh centers on the Flow 2 robot vacuum, alongside new cordless and mattress vacuums aimed at broader home cleaning. The products are on display at CES 2026 in Las Vegas, where Narwal is positioning them as a unified cleaning system covering floors, fabrics, and allergen-prone surfaces.
For Apple users, the announcement matters less for platform exclusivity and more for ecosystem reliability. Robot vacuums depend heavily on iOS apps for mapping, alerts, video feeds, and remote control from an iPhone or iPad, especially as camera-based features expand.
Three new Matter lights debut from Govee with blended RGBIC at CES 2026
Smart home brand Govee was at CES 2026 to highlight its new lineup of smart lighting solutions, with three new models that support Matter and Apple Home.
On display were the Govee Floor Lamp 3, Govee Ceiling Light Ultra, and Govee Sky Ceiling Light. All three communicate with Matter over Wi-Fi, which allows them to be supported in the Apple Home app.
The Govee Floor Lamp 3 is a free-standing solution that casts indirect light against the wall. It features Govee’s new LumiBlend+ lighting for even color transitions and vibrant colors at any brightness.
