They also feature DisplayPort, HDMI (2.0 and 1.4) and USB 3.0 ports. We expect more information to be released in the coming months. We … Read more

There was much (OK, perhaps too much) to see and do at this year’s Consumer Electronics event in Las Vegas. On the display side, 4K content and new delivery standards (i.e. Ultra HD Premium) took center stage but one strikingly evident fact also remains. That is, the continuation of both auto-steroscopic and glasses based 3D … Read more
Razer has a reputation for innovation. At previous CES shows, the company has shown products such as a gaming tablet (with joysticks and a Core i7 processor), a modular PC for consumers without the technical knowledge to build their own and a set-top box that can stream PC games to a TV. This year’s announcements … Read more
Apple spoofs are a long-running joke in the tech industry, but Above Average’s advert for the ‘iPhone D’ – “the iPhone for drunk assholes” – takes the cake. Drunk people can’t be trusted, so the iPhone D features a leash, waterproof cover and – a nice touch – a pre-cracked screen. The best part? It … Read more

Digital Experience, aka Pepcom, is the largest of the CES press events – almost a mini show by itself. This year it was held in the Mirage hotel, and the ‘Sun, Surf and Tech’ theme seemed wildly out of place, considering the pouring rain outside! We spoke to Atmel, the maker of touch controllers that … Read more
The ZTE press conference takes this year’s coveted ‘worst-arranged event of CES’ award. The room was far too small for the number of people who wanted to attend, and was almost entirely full once the VIP guests had entered. Us ‘peasants’ from the press had to traipse upstairs to the (poorly-signposted) overflow room, where the … Read more
