This year, Computex 2026 turned from just being the biggest computing show on the planet into the most important moment of the past decade. We all saw the future of computing, and after seeing over 300 new pieces of tech unveiled, it’s time to pick the 17 best and most innovative products.From Nvidia’s biggest chip release in the last 20 years, Intel revolutionizing handheld gaming, mind-blowing monitors, and actual value-for-money laptops to take on the MacBook Neo, we’ve fallen in love with so much tech here in Taipei!And after exhaustively testing many new products, we’re ready to handpick our best of Computex 2026 list. So, let’s get into it.Best of show: Nvidia RTX Spark
(Image credit: Future)Well, I mean, it had to be, right? Nvidia came out fighting this year with what is easily the biggest shake-up to the Windows PC world in a decade, RTX Spark — a new super chip that aims to “reinvent the PC” for the agentic AI era.Turns out the missing link to Windows on Arm is two things: a massive GPU with the same performance as an RTX 5070 (but way more power efficient), and the sheer force of a $5 trillion company working with Microsoft to rewrite the fundamentals of how Windows 11 works. It’s changing the paradigm of computing from a tool that you work on to a system that can work with you.But the big win in my eyes has to be its creator and gaming chops — capable of truly awesome feats both plugged in and unplugged. This is Nvidia’s M1 moment, and they may have killed the MacBook Pro on the first try. — Jason EnglandBest laptop: Microsoft Surface Laptop Ultra
