TL;DR
- InkPoster launched two new A1-sized color E-Ink frames at CES 2026.
- Both use E-Ink Spectra 6 color ePaper for a print-like impression, but feature differing aesthetics.
- The poster-sized frames are designed to function as fully cordless wall art, with up to a year of battery life.
Color E-Ink isn’t just for E-Ink tablets anymore, and wall art is one of the more logical places it’s showing up. The tech offers the flexibility of digital art without the glow, noise, or constant power draw of a traditional screen. After launching its first consumer-friendly color ePaper art poster in 2025, InkPoster returns to CES 2026 with two new A1-size frames that scale the idea up in a big way.

At roughly 23 by 33 inches, these are wall-dominating frames that function more like statement pieces than decorative accents. InkPoster has shown smaller formats before, but the A1 frames are its first move into true gallery-scale ePaper, roughly the size of a traditional movie poster. The first of the large new models is the design-forward InkPoster Duna, created in collaboration with Pininfarina, an Italian design studio best known for automotive design. The second is the more minimalist InkPoster Tela 40.5-inch, with the 40.5-inch label referring to the diagonal measurement of the display, similar to how TVs are sized.

The two frames share the same core technology, image quality, and battery life, and software also remains the same in either model. Both use a color ePaper display built on E-Ink Spectra 6 with a Sharp IGZO backplane. InkPoster says the panel can display more than 60,000 colors with a paper-like finish, with no backlight or glare. The display only uses power when the image changes, allowing each frame to last up to a year on a single charge. Once mounted, they’re completely cordless and silent. Users can update artwork remotely through the InkPoster app, and cycle through licensed pieces or personal images.
Where the two models diverge is in aesthetics. The InkPoster Tela 40.5-inch sticks to a clean, understated design, expanding InkPoster’s existing Tela lineup into large-scale territory while keeping the focus on the art inside the frame. As mentioned above, the Duna is designed in collaboration with Pininfarina. Its elevated look features a suede-like Alcantara-wrapped perimeter with visible stitching, detailing more commonly seen in high-end interiors. To fill the upscale frame, the InkPoster app also offers Duna-users an exclusive set of original Pininfarina design sketches pulled from the studio’s archives.
In practical terms, these frames are not meant to compete with TVs or traditional digital photo frames. The Tela 40.5-inch makes the most sense for people who want large-scale digital art that fades into their existing space. The Duna is aimed at design-forward interiors where the frame itself is part of the statement. Each sits firmly in a niche corner of the display market. InkPoster hasn’t shared pricing yet, but previous models have landed firmly in the premium category, so these probably won’t be impulse purchases. They are each on display now at CES 2026 in Las Vegas.
