European Hardware Awards 2026 Finalists Revealed

The editorial teams of the European Hardware Association (EHA) have announced the finalists for the 2026 European Hardware Awards. The shortlist was determined after an evaluation of more than 400 products from over 110 manufacturers.

The selection process is managed by the editorial staffs of nine EHA member publications across Europe. These include Technology Insider (NL), HardwareLuxx (DE), Hardware Upgrade (IT), Geeknetic (ES), Lab501 (RO), Pure PC (PL), CowCotLand (FR), IO-Tech (FI) and KitGuru (UK).

These publications collectively represent an audience of more than 20 million readers, including professionals, gamers, content creators, and PC builders. According to the association, the buying decisions influenced by recommendations from these member publications now exceed £26 billion annually.

Now in its 12th year, the awards program utilizes independent reviews and real-world analysis to recognize products that demonstrate enduring quality and genuine innovation. The process relies on the combined testing efforts of the member editorial teams to identify the products that have had the most significant impact on the enthusiast and professional markets.

The winners of each category will be revealed at an awards ceremony on Monday, June 1, 2026. The event is scheduled to take place at the Marriott Courtyard in Nangang, Taipei, preceding the start of Computex.
