Is your TV wall mount no longer functioning? Displace Hub aims to demonstrate this at CES.

      Displace aims to simplify the process of wall-mounting a TV, transforming it from a weekend project into a quick task. Prior to CES 2026, the company introduced Displace Hub, a mounting system designed to make “any TV” a truly wireless smart display that can be installed on the wall in less than 10 seconds.

      This innovation promises to eliminate the need for brackets, drilled holes, and tangled cables. According to Displace, the Hub utilizes an active-loop suction mechanism to attach a TV to “any surface” and incorporates a built-in battery to ensure the display remains powered without any visible cords. The company also claims that repositioning the TV can be done just as rapidly.

      This offering is particularly appealing to renters or anyone who frequently rearranges their space, yet the press release lacks crucial purchasing information such as pricing, battery life, and the actual limitations regarding TV weight and wall types. If you have doubts, current alternatives may better suit your needs.

      Three technological innovations in one mount

      Displace combines three features into one device: quick attachment, wireless power, and an integrated software layer. The company states that the Hub is compatible with TVs ranging from 55 inches to 100 inches, without the need for permanent fixtures.

      On the smart front, Displace asserts that Displace OS 2.0 provides an “ambient computing” experience, including a second-screen function via Controller 2.0, which displays related information and controls while you watch. The Hub also features two HDMI inputs for external devices, along with a safety element called Landing Gear to minimize the risk of slipping or disconnection.

      Challenges in the promise

      Expressions like “any surface” and “any TV” may sound appealing, but they raise concerns when imagining a 100-inch screen on a textured wall after months of daily use. The suction mechanism must endure dust, heat, and repeated mounting and removal cycles, rather than just functioning on an immaculate demo wall.

      Battery life presents another issue. Displace labels the setup as “truly wireless,” yet has not disclosed specifics about runtime, charging methods, or what occurs if power is interrupted during use. If the Hub introduces power as a new point of friction, the supposed “no cables” advantage may become more complex.

      What to consider before pre-ordering

      Displace plans to showcase the Hub at CES 2026 and start taking pre-orders during the event. If you’re in the market, approach the demo as a stress test: evaluate it across various surfaces, TV sizes, and repeated use cases without issues.

      The conclusion: appreciate the idea, but hold off on purchasing until pricing and battery details are available. These factors will ultimately determine if the Displace Hub replaces your current mount or simply swaps one problem for another.
