The technology fair of CES is over. The annual event in Las Vegas says goodbye, and now we only have to count the days until the MWC begins. But while we wait, it's time to review the most striking and curious products that have walked through the Nevada desert. These are some of the ones that have caught our attention the most.
Razer Tomahawk N1
Razer arrived at CES with the launch of its first compact desktop computer. Its about Tomahwk N1, a small unit that has been designed together with Intel taking advantage of the new motherboard with a small form factor and slot connection released in the future NUC 9 Extreme. Razer's proposal is larger in size than Intel's, however, it starts with an advantage, since in this box we can connect large graphics cards, such as the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 Super that is included.
Q950TS QLED 8K, Samsung's frameless TV
The frames have disappeared on the new Samsung TV. It is something that many users have been asking for for years and today, finally, it is a reality. The new one Q950TS QLED 8K Samsung launches a frameless Infinity Screen design that is spectacular to see, bringing the speakers to their meager 15 millimeters thick.

The panel occupies 99% of the front of the television, so when viewing it from 3 meters away, the tiny bezel disappears completely. It has a Quantum 8K processor to scale the image to panel resolution if needed and a host of technologies related to artificial intelligence and the way in which sound is taken care of.
Vision-S, Sony's car
Sony making cars? More or less. The Japanese brand has joined forces with a long list of companies with experience in the motor world to create the Vision-S, a platform that serves to demonstrate everything that Sony has to say in the motor world. It is a representation of the vision that the manufacturer has towards where mobility is going, and it is that if you thought that mobile phones were the technological ceiling to which a human could reach, it is because you have not seen where today's vehicles are going in day.
The result is a spectacular vehicle with an endless list of sensors (33 in total including Sony CMOS sensors), an ultra-wide screen that covers the entire dashboard and a 360 Reality Audio sound system that offers surround sound at every seat. There is no shortage of software led by artificial intelligence, LiDAR detection systems and a whole arsenal of technology with which to enjoy maximum security and the best multimedia equipment. Will we see him one day on the roads?
Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Fold
Foldable fever continues to expand and the next to present its flexible device has been Lenovo. In this case, the manufacturer's proposal is a tablet with the soul of a laptop, since this device 13,3 inches it is capable of folding its screen in half to become a closed notebook. If you prefer, you can fold it in half and adopt a form factor similar to that of a laptop, at which point you can attach a magnetic keyboard of the brand to transform the device into a small and neat work laptop.
Mateo, the smart mat for the bathroom
This product is so simple that it draws attention for how well resolved and well thought out it is. Who does not have the habit of jumping on the scale when leaving or entering the shower? That's just what they thought about Mateo, the company behind this smart bath mat.
It is a classic bathroom rug that includes sensors capable of calculating our weight and reviewing our footprint, informing about where we are dropping our weight and even offering exercises to correct it. At the moment the model presented at CES is a prototype, but they intend to launch a crowdfunding campaign in the coming months.
Bosch smart sunshade
When we talk about technologies applied to vehicles, we think of radar and autonomous driving systems, however, the latest idea from Bosch could interest you much more. It's about a transparent windshield equipped with LCD panel formed by independent cells that will be activated to make shadow only in your eyes.
In this way, the useful surface is optimized to continue having visibility even with the panel deployed in front of us. A camera is in charge of detecting the driver's face and calculates the cells that must be activated to avoid the reflection of the sun in the eyes. Super clever.
The PlayStation 5 logo
Many rumors suggested that Sony could reveal new details of its next console at the presentation in Las Vegas, but unfortunately everything was left in a logo. And not that it was a big surprise, since the brand confirmed that PS5 It will have the logo that has accompanied the different generations of the console in all these years, so the image you see on these lines is the most we can tell you about it.
Of course, there are still many things to discover, and it is that Sony assures that beyond the details that are known about the Dualshock and the few brushstrokes that have been told about the platform, there are still many surprises to discover about the future PS5. Don't you already want to meet her?
The LG booth at CES 2020
Like every year, LG prepared the entrance to its booth with a visual spectacle, but what it brought to CES 2020 was simply spectacular. The manufacturer built a giant wave screen made up of 200 55-inch panels, giving life to a spectacular screen in which marine life took on a life of its own in the form of an underwater aquarium.
