CES 2026: Would you spend $9K on this OLED smart purse?
Mashable checked out the Infinity smart handbag at CES 2026.
There are plenty of things with screens in them that don’t need screens, and now you can add handbags to that list. Created by Richard Peuty, Infinity is a high-end French purse that embeds an OLED display directly into its leather body, turning what is traditionally a static fashion accessory into a glowing, animated statement piece. I saw it up close at CES, where it immediately stood out as one of the show’s more delightfully unnecessary ideas.
While the Infinity's entry-level Kickstarter tiers start at around $800, the top-end Atelier Edition surpasses $9,000, placing it firmly in the luxury handbag category. That highest tier is less about value and more about exclusivity, with limited production and hand-assembly in France. Such craftsmanship is where Infinity clearly wants to justify itself. The bag is made from full-grain leather sourced and assembled in Europe, with an emphasis on longevity and repairability rather than fast fashion. Peuty positions the OLED panel as something that allows the bag to evolve over time, rather than be replaced, adapting to trends digitally while the physical object remains the same.
Visually, Infinity appears to be a structured, high-end leather handbag at first glance. The OLED panel is flush with the front, framed by clean stitching and metal hardware, so the tech doesn’t overpower the design.

The OLED panel sits beneath a textured protective layer designed to feel like leather rather than glass, so you never feel as though you’re touching a screen. The bag supports wireless charging, offers six to eight hours of continuous display time, and connects over Bluetooth Low Energy. The idea is that the technology disappears until you want it, leaving the craftsmanship to do most of the talking.
It’s undeniably a little ridiculous, but it’s also very intentional. It’s aiming at buyers who already spend thousands on handbags and want something no one else at dinner has.
