Displace Hub will turn your television wireless and keep your wall blemish-free
The Displace Hub will attach your existing TV to the wall in around ten seconds. But it costs the same as a good OLED television
Displace, the maker of a $6,000 wireless television set that operates on rechargeable batteries, is returning to CES in 2026 with a new hub to rid your existing set of the need for unsightly cables running down the walls.
The Displace Hub is a wall mount loaded with a 15,000mAh battery pack that can keep the television running for between five and ten hours, depending on the power hungriness of the set. If the battery dies, you can always plug it in, in the conventional manner, while the cell recharges. It’ll work with TVs ranging from 55-inches to 100-inches weighing of up to 150lbs.
The Displace Hub uses the same mounting technology as the company’s standalone display, which avoids the tricky installation palaver of drilling holes and fitting brackets. Instead, Displace says, the “active-loop suction” technology can mount any telly on the wall in about ten seconds flat.
Active-loop suction creates a vacuum with the wall. The process involves using a joystick on-screen guidance to set the cup pressure for each suction zone. Within a few seconds, the on-screen UI confirms a safe and secure hold that’s constantly working to cling to the surface. There’s also an Intel N-150 4-core CPU (integrated graphics) combined with 16GB RAM and 128GB of storage. That’ll handle the on-board AI-powered operating system.
“Traditional wall mounting is complicated, clunky and expensive, and most people can’t install it by themselves. Displace Hub changes that,” said Balaji Krishnan, founder and CEO of Displace. “With it, consumers can mount any screen to the wall in 10 seconds, connect it to the built-in battery power, make it completely wireless and instantly experience its AI-powered intelligence with Displace OS 2.0. This is how we bring ambient computing into every home and move towards a world where smart screens go beyond entertainment.”
We’re not sure when it’s going to come out, but we do know how much it’s going to cost. A cool $1,900. Displace launched its first TVs at CES 2023 and is returning this year with the follow up, so keep your eyes peeled for that too.
