The biggest show in consumer tech is on right now. Catch up on our highlights and follow us on Instagram for up-to-the-second coverage!
A new decade is kicking off with what else but the Christmas of consumer gadgetry: CES 2020. The show has barely started, but plenty of companies aren’t waiting for the conference’s official start on Tuesday when the show floor opens to share news about their latest gadgets. Here are the best products that have broken cover so far.
LG UltraFine Ergo Displays
LG’s UltraFine 4K and 5K displays are hugely popular among Mac users and are even sold by Apple on its website. The new UltraFine “Ergo” Displays have a new ergonomic arm that allows them to swivel around and give you the perfect viewing angle. The displays can swivel both horizontally (up to 280 degrees) and vertically (they can tilt up to 25 degrees), and yes this means that you can even swivel these new monitors to face backward, which is convenient if your desk is in the middle of a room and not against a wall, if you want.
Vizio Elevate Soundbar
Vizio’s newest flagship soundbar sports a unique new trick. Yes, it has 18 drivers in total, but the left and right ends of the soundbar can actually rotate up, to increase height effects when they are working with Dolby Atmos and DTS:X encoded audio. Otherwise, they point forward like a typical soundbar. So far, no word on price or release date.
Samsung’s “Zero-Bezel” Q950TS TV
Samsung’s new 8K QLED TV isn’t just notable for its picture, but also for what’s (not) around it. The new flagship Q950TS has, according to Samsung, a 99 percent screen-to-frame ration, which means that the border around its picture is practically non-existent at just 2.3mm thick, for however that much is worth to you. And it better be worth a lot. While Samsung hasn’t devulged price or availability quite yet, if it is runs in the same league as its predecessors, you can expect a price tag well above $10,000.
We’ll be updating this post throughout the show, so check back for the latest highlights.
