Four days. More than 3,600 exhibitors. Hundreds of thousands of products. More than 1,70,000 gadget lovers. CES 2015 was more massive than ever.

Here’s our look at the devices that rocked the show.

By Nimish Dubey & Abhijit Ahaskar

The Best and the Brightest

F

or four days from January 6 to 9, gadget lovers flocked to Las Vegas in thousands to see what the future of technology had in store for them. And they were not disappointed. Spread over 2.2 million square feet, this year’s edition of the Consumer Electronics Show featured more than three and a half thousand exhibitors, and tens of thousand of products, from the brilliant to the bizarre to the utterly simple were shown. Almost every big name in technology was there. Almost every type of product that you could think of was displayed - smart watches, wearables, televisions, mobile phones, tablets, notebooks, et al.

But which were the products that really stood out

18 | february 2015

this year at what many consider the world’s biggest electronic products show? There were the major unveilings and launches by the big, established brands of course - from the likes of Sony, Lenovo, LG, etc. And then there were devices and concepts that came from relatively smaller players but still managed to grab attention because of the sheer level of innovation they showed. Which is why we have divided our look at CES 2015 into two sections: in the first we look at a dozen devices that we think rocked the event in terms of attention and potential, and in the second, we look at the event’s crazy side, and highlight the devices that might not have grabbed the spotlight to the same extent, but which were nevertheless, amazingly innovative. Read on.
