Lenovo Motorola Qira: CES 2026’s Cross-Device AI That Follows You Everywhere

Tired of AI assistants stuck on one device? Lenovo and Motorola’s Qira, launched at CES 2026, is a system-level AI that works across your laptop, phone, tablet, and wearables – remembering conversations, tasks, and context as you switch screens. Perfect for Indians juggling WhatsApp on phone, Excel on laptop, and calendar reminders everywhere.

How Qira Works Differently:

Unlike app-based chatbots (ChatGPT, Gemini), Qira lives at the system level – always listening, understanding context without opening apps. Key features:

• Continuity: Start email on Motorola phone, Qira finishes drafting on Lenovo laptop
• Memory: Remembers your flight booking from yesterday’s WhatsApp, suggests cab when nearing airport
• Proactive: Sees calendar gap + weather rain = “Bring umbrella to 3 PM meeting”
• Privacy First: Runs mostly on-device (Microsoft Phi-4 mini model), only cloud for complex tasks. You control data sharing.

Rolling out Q1 2026 on Lenovo PCs/tablets, Motorola phones later via OTA updates. Works with Google Gemini, Microsoft Copilot, Perplexity.
