THIS IS A SHOW WHERE WE ARE LAUNCHING 8K ULTRA HD TV, TV SETS, MORE AND MORE SELF-DRIVING CARS, ALL SORTS OF ROBOTICS, AND HEALTHCARE PRODUCTS, AND AN EXPLOSION OF INNOVATION. AND THIS IS ALSO THE SHOW WHERE MY BOOK IS LAUNCHED, NINJA FUTURE: SECRETS TO SUCCESS IN THE NEW WORLD OF INNOVATION.
Like each year, Exhibit CEO Ramesh Somani sat in an exclusive conservation with the main-man Gary Shapiro, CEO-CTA anKaushalal Nevrekar, CMO-reliance digital to ponder over the massive and enthralling world of tech and dissect CES 2019. What came out of the blend of the two insights and future predictions.
RS: What has changed since last year in CES 2019?
GS: It is the largest event by far. This year, we hit 2.9 million square feet (290,000 square metres) and we have over 4,500 companies with exhibits, we have over 180,000 people over, and 7,000 media personnel. But there are several stories of the show, first, the 5Gs, this is where a lot of the companies have chosen to talk about, they are making big announcements and pushing it, of course, it will take many years to get where we wanna go. Second, Artificial Intelligence, which is the ingredient technology of the future. Also, this is a show where we are launching 8K Ultra HD TVs, TV sets, more and more self-driving cars, all sorts of robotics, and healthcare products, and an explosion of innovation. And this is also the show where my book is launched, Ninja Future: Secrets to Success in the New World of Innovation.
RS: How would Indians benefit with what Gary just said?
KN: It’s great! Just walking the entire show, looking at great technologies, I think it’s very exciting, both as a professional of this industry and as Reliance Digital. Our bonus of bringing in the latest and the greatest technology to the Indian consumers lies on us. I’m excited to see all the products and technologies and can’t wait for all these to come to India soon.
RS: We have seen a lot of brands talking about connected devices, Smart homes, and IOT, 8k is also becoming mainstream, isn’t it?

BANG FOR YOUR BUCK
OnePlus has consistently been a reliable brand for wireless earphones, particularly in the sub-₹10,000 segment, and their latest launch, the OnePlus Nord Buds 3, stands out as a compelling option for those seeking quality audio without straining their budget.
A BUDGET-FRIENDLY PERFORMER WITH A FEW FLAWS
Redmi Buds 5C stands out as an affordable TWS option with active noise cancellation (ANC), a lightweight build, and long battery life. But is it perfect?
IS THE AFFORDABLE CONVERTIBLE WORTH YOUR MONEY
The laptop space is always pretty saturated, and that makes it difficult for devices to stand out. But the Aspire 3 Spin 14 has announced itself quite convincingly as a slim convertible within the reach of students and amateur users.
