CES isn’t always about the big TVs or device concepts. In fact, every year we see a lot of other surprising devices, like smart toilets. But for this year’s Best of CES 2026 awards , we decided to give that honor to Vivoo smart toilet . This is because of the health benefits it offers, the fact that it’s relatively affordable, and how it’s a much-welcome upgrade over its predecessor.

Detecting hydration levels

This isn’t the first smart toilet product from Vivoo, but at CES 2026 , the company has made some upgrades over its predecessor. The company’s previous smart toilet involved a reactive testing strip. This strip would help users analyze their pee. However, with the upgraded version, users don’t have to worry about using the strip anymore.

Instead, there’s a sensor that sits inside your toilet bowl, which collects a small sample of your pee (the sample will be released once testing is complete). Then, when it’s done analyzing, the results will be sent to the accompanying app.

But what’s the point, you ask? Well, if you’re wondering how hydrated you are , then this is the tool for you. The color of your urine is usually a good indication of your hydration levels. However, Vivoo’s solution breaks it down further. It also makes it easier for you to track your hydration levels throughout the day and week.

Relatively affordable pricing

The best part about Vivoo’s smart toilet is, honestly, the price. Right now, it is priced at $99 for early birds before eventually going up to $129 at retail. Now, we wouldn’t exactly say it’s “cheap,” but a $99 gadget that can keep track of your health (at least one aspect of it) seems like a pretty fair price.

Also, we should point out that the battery is good for more than 1,000 measurements. It’s also conveniently located outside the toilet bowl, so you don’t have to worry about getting your hands dirty.
