CES 2024: Biggest Announcements & Coolest Stuff

[Rob]

It's another year of CES (here's the schedule)!

The Consumer Electronics Show happens EVERY year in Las Vegas and this year it's January 9th to 12th (although media events started on January 7th). I'll be posting some of my favorite things on the EBC homepage but would love to see links, videos, and announcements from around the web from things you've seen at/from the show!

LG & Samsung are stealing the show early with transparent TV displays:

Sci-Fi cool!

@Rob : you're back and with content

Edit : Merry late Christmas, you missed a lot of action here while you were gone.

















no....no you didn't, let's be honest I've gotten more action at my mom's nursing home than this site has in the last few years. But welcome back any who....

 

[Dannydet]

Cool stuff!

I thought it was astonishing when SanDisk crammed 1TB of storage onto a microSD card... now a company has crammed TWO TB???

Exclusive: First 2TB MicroSD card is now on sale and no, it is not expensive at all — Taiwanese company makes my dream of building a petabyte-in-a-shoebox project become true

In a surprising twist, AGI becomes first manufacturer to launch a 2TB microSD card

wow that is a lot of data.....that would just make me worry about it getting corrupted. and that would suck to have constantly back the card up. never heard of agi. anybody use any of their cards?

 

[Dannydet]

I just don't see a need for that much storage for a mobile device unless you want to keep your entire library of music, photos, videos and such.
Overkill in my opinion.

That is a great deal of storage and could potentially lead to a great deal of data loss. I'd certainly not place entire trust in that much storage without multiple backups in place.

 

[ocnbrze]

It's not over kill for gaming. I might want to check them out. It would be great for my Steam Deck. I could have a tons of games downloaded...... so it depends. It's probably not for everyone.

Now that CES is over, Samsung Unpacked is day after tomorrow! Cool stuff coming out fast this year...
