CES® 2026, the premier global stage for breakthrough technology and design, will take place Jan. 6–9 in Las Vegas, Nevada, offering attendees a first look at the next generation of Samsung innovations.

Samsung’s S3SSE2A is the industry’s first embedded security chip to feature hardware-based Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) — providing powerful protection against future quantum computing threats.

Galaxy XR1 is Samsung’s eXtended reality headset, and the first device built on Android XR — a new platform developed together by Samsung, Google, and Qualcomm. This open, scalable platform with multimodal AI at its core enables Galaxy XR to unleash limitless possibilities for the future of discovery, play, and work.

Galaxy Z Fold7 is Samsung’s thinnest, lightest, and most durable foldable yet — packed with a 200MP wide-angle camera, immersive screen for multitasking and editing, and powerful Galaxy AI2.

The Galaxy Watch8 series offers two models, including Galaxy Watch8 Classic, with its signature rotating bezel, and Galaxy Watch8, the thinnest Galaxy Watch to date. Coupled with the all-new cushion shape, the Galaxy Watch8 series has a distinctive edge with sleek lines that protect the display without getting in the way of your routine.

PM9E1 M.2 22×42 is the world’s first PCIe Gen5 SSD in an ultra-compact 22mm x 42mm M.2 form factor for AI PCs, delivering breakthrough performance and spatial efficiency. Designed for premium gaming, next-gen on-device AI, and high-end computing, PM9E1 offers industry-leading sequential read/write speeds of up to 14.8GB/s and 13.4GB/s.

Samsung’s Detachable AutoSSD is the industry’s fastest auto-grade storage technology for mass production targets, purpose-built for demanding in-vehicle environments. Unlike embedded storage, it features a modular E1. A form factor that separates the controller and NAND, improving heat dissipation, extending product life, and simplifying upgrades or replacement.

LPDDR6 is a next-generation memory solution engineered to meet these demands. Built on an advanced 12nm process, LPDDR6 supports blazing-fast data rates of up to 10.7Gbps and features an expanded I/O count to maximize bandwidth — ideal for data-intensive mobile applications, edge computing and AI workloads.

Leveraging Samsung’s cutting-edge proprietary pixel technology, the ISOCELL HP5 achieves superb light absorption and signal conversion, overcoming challenges once thought impossible at this scale.

T7 Resurrected Portable Solid State Drive (PSSD) features a unique body case design crafted from 100% recycled aluminum certified by TÜV Rheinland6. By eliminating the coloring process, the product showcases the natural luster of aluminum while minimizing chemical use and streamlining its manufacturing process.
