CES 2025: What Lies Ahead in Tech This Year

With more powerful computing chips, the idea of PCs compact enough to be carried around in one hand is becoming real

By now, it is perhaps no surprise that 2025 is the year when pretty much every single piece of consumer technology will get generous dollops of artificial intelligence (AI) infusion of some kind. To keep up with these predictions, this year's edition of Consumer Electronics Show is now underway—and has offered a look at how technology around us is shaping up.

Beyond AI, the most interesting consumer technology candidates for the year are all focused on one particular aspect—making technology easier to access, for everyone and in every situation.

AN UNTETHERED TELEVISION
Keeping in line with this very principle, LG showcased a television that runs on battery, and uses flexible display panel innovation to fit inside a fairly compact briefcase. Called 'Stan-ByMe', this is the second iteration of the product, and has been upgraded to offer 2K display resolution and four hours of playback time on battery. It is squarely designed to address the issue of entertainment for frequent travelers and those on the go.

AI TVs AND CAMERAS
The next big trend that looks set to define 2025 is also available aplenty at CES 2025—generative AI in TVs. The surprising headliner in this regard is Google, which defined the theme for all televisions to follow—a screen with which you can have a natural conversation. Soon to be available in a future production version of Google TV, the generative AI interface is powered by the latter's AI models platform, Gemini.
