CES, also known as the Consumer Electronics Show, is the biggest tech trade show of the year, kicking off the first week of January and setting the stage for trends, announcements, and ascendant product categories we’ll see throughout the rest of 2023. The show will give us an early look at the latest developments in TVs and laptops, useful (and sometimes invasive) smart home gadgets, and plenty of phones, monitors, cars, and smart toilets in between.

For 2023, CES runs from January 5th through January 8th. But the news will start coming in before then: Samsung, LG, Sony, and quite a few others will kick things off with a day of press conferences on January 4th. And you can bet that companies eager to get their news out will start sharing announcements even earlier in the week. It’s going to be a busy start to the new year.

The Verge will be covering CES on the ground in Las Vegas. You can follow along here for all the latest news and plenty of hands-on video coverage from the show. After a couple of quieter years — CES 2021 was online-only due to the pandemic, and CES 2022 saw just a quarter of the show’s typical attendance due to omicron concerns — the Consumer Technology Association, which organizes CES, expects this year’s show to be more of a return to form, with busier halls and a lot more news to go around.

Two Samsung projectors can automatically create one giant image.

We weren’t impressed by the $900 original but the 2023 Freestyle has a neat little trick called Smart Edge Blending that automatically stitches the images of two projectors into a single ultra-wide display with a 21:9 aspect ratio. Only catch? If buying one Freestyle wasn’t worth it, who’d actually buy two?

Phenomenal cosmic power, itty bitty living space.

This 14-inch gaming laptop is no lamp, but it’s still mind-warping to consider a mobile version of a massive RTX 4090 graphics card inside this notebook. And yet it’s real, promising AI-enabled DLSS 3 and enhanced ray tracing that will be available starting next month.

Even if pure performance isn’t your goal, Nvidia claims that with its new tech and low-voltage GDDR6 memory, the mobile 4070 can deliver RTX 3080 performance while using one-third as much energy — saving your laptop’s battery.

Hey Alienware, meet Valve. I think you might have a common goal?

Alienware showed us a brand-new, really out-there gamepad prototype at CES this year, and the more I read about this wacky thing, the more I think Alienware should just make the Steam Controller 2.

Valve is looking for a partner! The two companies already have history! It won’t have to look like an Xbox ripoff!

Just please, make sure it has a great gyro.
