HP today announced the Pavilion 27 and it looks spectacular. This is the first display that offers a QLED screen — HP calls it by it’s official name Quantum Dot — that’s on glass instead of film. The differences should be clear. When offered on glass, the images are sharper and cleaner — though so […]

The good news and bad news of HP’s new AMD Chromebook
Good news: HP made an AMD Chromebook. Bad news: It uses an old chipset. Meet the new HP Chromebook 14. This is one of the first Chromebooks powered by an AMD processor. But don’t get too excited. This isn’t the AMD-powered Chromebook a lot of people were waiting for. This Chromebook is powered by a […]

The HP Omen X Emperium is not meant to watch reruns of The Office. Though it can. This display is one of the first in Nvidia’s family of Big Format Gaming Displays. Unlike traditional large displays, these are certified by Nvidia and are said to deliver the best gaming experience through the smoothest motion. This […]

This Apple flex has it all: razor wit, perfect comedic timing, and staggering levels of pettiness.
The Consumer Electronics Show kicks off on Jan. 8, which means that just about every major and minor interest in the tech world is converging on Las Vegas for the annual trade show. Apple is forever a CES no-show, but this year the company cooked up a special surprise for attendees — and, seemingly, for Amazon in particular.

It’s a public pro-Apple/anti-piracy ad plastered across one entire side of a Vegas hotel. The ad co-opts a popular Vegas-ism — “What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas!” — to make a point in terms that any CES attendee can understand. Read more…

Nissan calls it Invisible-to-Visible, or I2V, technology, but you can call it creepy.
The company wants to project the “invisible” virtual world onto car windshields and windows. The tech isn’t ready now. Instead, through a VR headset next week at CES in Las Vegas, Nissan will show off its concept to demonstrate what’s possible in future cars, especially self-driving vehicles.
Using information from sensors and cameras inside and outside of the car, paired with data stored in the cloud, the I2V tech shows a “mixed reality” world: some of it is really there but some of it is augmented reality (AR). Read more…

Samsung’s Space Monitor is practical and minimal
Samsung always has a huge presence at CES, but it isn’t the giant TVs and flashy next-generation gadgets that have my attention this year; it’s this simple, flexible monitor that looks like it would be right at home in any workspace. It’s called the Space Monitor, presumably because it gives you space, not because it’s meant for use in space. I don’t see why you couldn’t, though.

This year’s CES is already shaping up to be another big show for smart home devices, with the Amazon Alexa/Google Assistant show down in the center ring. GE bought into the Alexa ecosystem fairly early on and got on-board with Google Assistant more recently. At the Pixel 3 event back in October, the company announced […]

LG announcing all — or, at least, most — of its launches ahead of CES has become something of a time honored tradition. That’s one way to get noticed. This first week of the year tends to be among the slowest, and the same can’t be said for next, when we’ll be in the belly […]

Since the advent of bluetooth earbuds, charging case have been utilitarian, at best. Understandable. I suspect few, if any, purchase the things based on how their cases look. For many of us, however, headphones are the one piece of tech aside from a smartphone (and, perhaps, wearable) we never leave the house without. When they’re […]

For anyone with enough open space to race against your friends, Segway-Ninebot has the product for you.
On Thursday, the electric personal vehicle company known for its e-scooters used in share programs around the world unveiled a series of new machines to get around — or at least play around with.
The line of “last-mile” transportation devices will be on view next week at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas. E-Skates and a GoKart are some of the products that will be available to buy later this year after the show. A new electric scooter model and a delivery robot will be introduced for the first time.

What to expect from CES 2019
The timing is… less than ideal. Just as the industry is recovering from a holiday-induced hangover, we’re thrust into the country’s largest consumer electronics show. The timing, of course, is not coincidental. The show is intended to offer a preview for the tech year to come. Many companies thrive on CES’s pace. It’s a five-day […]
