Ugreen Unveils Local‑AI NAS, Smart Security Lineup and 300W Charger at CES 2026

Early‑bird preorders signal a push toward private, on‑device AI with a crowdfunding campaign to follow in March.

Overview

  • The NASync iDX6011 and iDX6011 Pro run Intel Core Ultra chips with up to 64GB LPDDR5x, dual 10GbE, dual Thunderbolt 4 and storage scaling to 196TB, pairing Universal Search, Uliya on‑device LLM, AI Album tagging, voice transcription and automatic file organization for a privacy‑first private cloud.
  • The Pro model steps up to a Core Ultra 7 255H with 64GB standard, adds a touchscreen and an OCuLink port for external‑GPU acceleration, while both models include HDMI, multiple USB ports, a PCIe slot and an SD 4.0 card slot.
  • Preorders are live with sizable discounts, a Kickstarter is scheduled for March, and reported pricing varies by outlet, with MSRPs cited at $1,699/$1,999/$2,599 and early‑bird offers as low as $999–$1,559.
  • Coverage highlights the fully local approach to AI but notes open questions about real‑world speed, indexing time for large libraries and how on‑device models will perform under heavy workloads.
  • UGREEN also introduced the SynCare home security ecosystem—AI indoor/outdoor cameras, a video doorbell and a smart display hub with encrypted local storage integration—targeted for the latter half of 2026, plus the Nexode Pro 300W eight‑port charger with three 140W PD ports and a 240W DC output shipping around March/Q2 2026.
