TechRadar’s editorial team has touched down in Berlin for IFA 2026, Europe’s biggest consumer electronics showcase, and they’re pulling back the curtain on everything happening across the show floor. Nearly 1,900 exhibitors and roughly 200,000 attendees will converge on the Messeplatz convention complex from September 4 through September 8.
The team arrived early for a slate of press briefings, which means most major product announcements already broke before the doors officially opened. That timing frees reporters to hunt down the quirkier, less obvious gadgets hiding among the sprawling displays.
Early standouts include Nvidia’s RTX Spark laptops, slated for an October launch, plus a lawnbot wielding a mechanical arm that trims edges on its own. Plenty more discoveries await across the venue.
The publication now opens a direct line to readers attending vicariously. Anyone curious about hands-on impressions, standout home electronics, or the chaos of navigating a massive trade fair can submit questions through the live chat. Staff members will field inquiries as quickly as the schedule allows.
Major headlines may have already landed, but the deeper story often lives in the smaller booths and unexpected demos. TechRadar’s crew plans to spend the remaining days threading through those corners while answering reader questions from the floor.
The event wraps Tuesday. Expect a steady stream of dispatches until then.
