IFA 2026: Tech Paradise in Berlin
It’s September, or as we tech enthusiasts refer to it, ‘Techtember’. This signifies the arrival of IFA 2026, the massive tech exhibition in Berlin where various gadgets and devices debut.
Just in time for Apple’s unveiling of the iPhone 18 series and potentially the foldable iPhone Ultra next week, tech companies from around the world have gathered in Berlin to showcase their latest innovations.
Xiaomi 18 Fold
Xiaomi’s initial passport-style foldable hasn’t been officially released yet, but it’s already taking center stage at IFA.
Inspired by the Galaxy Z Fold 8 (and the anticipated iPhone Ultra), this stunning device features a 5.38-inch cover display and a 7.58-inch internal screen for a complete tablet experience. Powered by Xiaomi’s proprietary XRing 03 chipset, it might remain exclusive to China. Here’s hoping we see that impressive red finish in the UK soon.

It’s making its debut in the flagship Wear OS space, just as OnePlus steps away. Equipped with LTE, GPS, an impressive OLED display, and even Google Pay, Moto’s taking this seriously. Our only worry? The older Snapdragon W5+ Gen 1 chipset. Stay tuned for our review.
