Every year over 200,000 people descend on Berlin for IFA, the largest tech trade show in Europe. Some of the world’s biggest manufacturers turn up to demo everything from appliances to smartphones to smart home gadgets, and this year should be no different.

IFA itself runs from September 4th to 8th, but most of the biggest news arrives in the day or two before the show officially opens to the public, so keep your eyes peeled for news as it breaks.

The Verge will be on the ground in Berlin to see the biggest hardware launches in person and put them through their paces, and we’ll be collecting all the news, announcements, and hands-on demos and videos right here.
