CES 2026 won’t be dominated solely by TV, phones, or smart home gadgets. It will also showcase a variety of unique and unexpected products, even from major players like LG and Samsung. The latter has now lifted the curtain on multiple innovations it plans to debut at the world’s biggest tech show. This includes an AI OLED Bot, a Cassette, and a Turntable. Announced today by Samsung Display (Samsung’s affiliated brand), all three innovations are set to debut at CES 2026, alongside several other products Samsung plans to showcase.
First up is the AI OLED Bot, described by Samsung as a compact robot concept featuring a 13.4-inch OLED screen as its face. According to the company’s press release, the OLED Bot is designed to move freely within designated areas. Samsung Display says the robot will communicate with users via AI and could serve as a teaching assistant in a university setting, guiding students to classrooms and providing information such as professor profiles. “With the robot’s display, students can easily check assignments or class cancellations even in environments where voice commands or speakers are difficult to use,” the company adds.
Alongside the AI OLED Bot, Samsung has also teased the AI OLED Cassette and AI OLED Turntable, both of which look intriguing. Few details have been revealed, but based on available images, the cassette appears inspired by vintage designs. It has two 1.5-inch round screens like cassette reels. The left screen shows playback controls, while the right displays a digital waveform or equalizer. Both screens are touch-sensitive.
As for the turntable is concerned, the design reminds me of the Toshiba Aurex AX-RP10 Bluetooth record player, with a larger 13.4-inch round display, hinting at nostalgic music players enhanced by AI features. Samsung Display will additionally showcase an AI OLED Mood Lamp, which also uses a 13.4-inch round OLED to adjust the lighting atmosphere based on the music being played.
It’s worth noting that all these showcases are just concepts or prototypes for now, and Samsung may not manufacture all of these robots and smart devices itself. Rather, these announcements highlight that Samsung Display already has the OLED technologies to support other manufacturers interested in creating similar products. For now, it’s best to view this as more of a booth-side attraction.
