What to expect at CES 2024

It’s the biggest consumer-technology conference on the planet and yet CES just keeps getting bigger. And this year, people who love to watch the trends will have plenty to look into. BestReviews is in Las Vegas to cover all of the newest and greatest products readying to launch, already on the market or trying to find a bigger reach.

So before the madness really begins on Tuesday, we attended the media preview events to provide you a look into what you can expect to be leading the way this year at CES. Artificial intelligence, sustainability and inclusivity will lead the way There are going to be three major buzzwords at this year’s CES, according to the speakers at the Tech Trends to Watch event: AI, sustainability and inclusivity. This has been the case in the market for some time, but the volume just seems to be getting louder.

With AI in particular, its ascendence as talking point in tech will be even more on display during CES. It can’t be a coincidence that for the first time in 30 years — to add an AI-copilot button, of course. In many ways, AI will enable the other key trends in tech that will be on display this week.

For example, inclusive designs were on display during the early exhibitions of the event. A prime example is Garmin rolling out a wheelchair mode for . On sustainability, the Paris Accords were signed in 2015, and with it, comes commitments from countries around the globe to make significant investments in technology that will curb climate change.

Companies are developing technologies that will help solve this massive issue. After walking around the exhibits at the CES Unveiled event, it was clear this was true. Almost everything fell into the above three categories.

It plugs into the same outlet you’d plug your washer or dryer into and creates more than 100 gallons of water a day, working best in hot and humid climates.

A focus on products for different stages of aging Outside of the main three trends, there’s also a focus on products that meet the consumer where they are. Namely, products for Generation Z that make their smart phones more immersive (86% of Generation Z respondents in a survey said tech was essential to their lives); and products for older generations that ease the discomforts of aging. Focusing on the latter group, there was a significant focus on health and wellness technology that was personalized and intelligent.

The solves that problem by making content easier to hear without forcing people to crank their TVs up to full volume. The product is designed with people experiencing hearing loss in mind. Its curved design allows the sound to be more evenly distributed and reach more areas of the room.

It’s perfect for people who have a hard time hearing what they’re watching when consuming TV or movies with others or for families who feel like one person requires the volume to be much louder than everyone else. The TV as the centerpoint of home life The television already exists as the focal point of most living rooms. With technological advancements on the near horizon, it promises to unlock even more aspects of modern home life: From smart-home commands to becoming a platform for e-commerce transactions.

Additionally, gaming will be in focus as the industry continues to grow as consumers are expected to spend more in 2024 on software in the space. We’re excited to take a look at it and see if it will be popular to catch on where others who entered this space failed.
