  • CES 2026: OLED smart purse hits $9,000 luxury price tag
    January 9, 2026, 6:36 AM EST. At CES 2026, French designer Richard Peuty unveiled Infinity, an OLED-embedded handbag that fuses fashion with display tech. The leather purse turns a traditional accessory into a moving, glowing canvas. Entry-level Kickstarter tiers start around $800, but the Atelier Edition tops $9,000, aligning the product with luxury fashion. Production remains limited, with hand assembly in France and emphasis on longevity and repairability rather than fast fashion. The OLED panel is pitched as a way for the bag to evolve with trends rather than be replaced. Marketing frames the device as exclusive rather than practical, highlighting craftsmanship and European sourcing of full-grain leather. Critics call the concept stylish but highly niche for CES novelty.
