Hisense is showing off a wide-ranging slate of new smart home appliances at CES 2026, spanning kitchen, laundry and home comfort, with a heavy focus on AI-driven coordination across devices.
At CES 2026, Hisense is expanding its ConnectLife smart home platform, which acts as a central layer tying appliances together through task-specific AI agents designed to automate everyday routines.
Those AI agents are built to coordinate behaviour across multiple devices, such as adjusting air conditioning based on presence and air quality, recommending meals and wine pairings in the kitchen, or optimising laundry cycles based on fabric type and soil level.
Laundry is one of the biggest focus areas this year, highlighted by the debut of the X-Zone Master, which Hisense describes as the world’s first infinitely scalable modular washer-dryer system.
The X-Zone Master allows households to start with a main washer-dryer unit and add smaller matching modules over time, enabling separate loads to run simultaneously for items like delicates, baby clothes or sportswear without mixing fabrics or waiting between cycles.
The main unit uses energy-efficient heat pump drying, while the smaller modules rely on fresh-air condensation, with the entire system designed to operate quietly at under 46dB even when multiple units are running.
Alongside the modular system, Hisense is also showing the U7 Smart Washer & Dryer, featuring a large washer, a 7-inch touchscreen interface and an AI Laundry Agent that automatically adjusts cycles and provides time-to-ready estimates.
For smaller homes and apartments, the Roman Holiday all-in-one washer-dryer combines washing, drying and sanitising in a single unit, wrapped in a retro-inspired design with gold accents and a slim depth aimed at space-conscious installations.
In the kitchen, Hisense is expanding its ConnectLife Hub Refrigerator range, introducing models with dual high-resolution displays designed to manage food storage, cooking coordination and smart home controls from a single interface.
These refrigerators integrate with Hisense’s AI Cooking Agent, which can suggest recipes, guide preparation steps and coordinate with other connected cooking appliances.
Additional kitchen highlights include a new slide-in smart induction range with a built-in touch display and a high-end S7 Smart Dishwasher that automatically adjusts water, detergent and cycle length based on load and soil detection.
Beyond the kitchen and laundry room, Hisense is also introducing new home comfort products, including a top-lift dehumidifier designed to improve accessibility by eliminating the need to bend or lift heavy water tanks.
The CES 2026 announcements underline Hisense’s focus on building a connected appliance ecosystem, with software and AI playing a larger role alongside hardware updates.
