CES 2026 is finally here. This is the tech industry's first major showcase of the year, and it's the ideal time for brands to showcase their upcoming products and launch new offerings across every major category. And while the kickoff to the show has already been filled with conceptual ideas of the future and flashy tech like an $8,000 LED TV, at the heart of the event is still lots and lots of gadgets that make everyday life easier. There are plenty of gizmos across every category, but as one of ZDNET's accessory experts, I can't leave out mobile accessories like chargers, MagSafe gear, and more.
