CES 2017

CES wrapped up on Sunday, and we've now had time to get our bearings and reflect on the consumer tech most likely to stick from the crazy week. It's time to recap our highlights in New Atlas' Best of CES 2017.

A year-round cycling solution for those that like to live in the saddle, the all-new Falco eDrive is an e-bike drive that doubles as an indoor trainer. There's no excuse not to get pedaling.

If you've been dreaming of a MacBook with a touchscreen, the odds that Apple will ever indulge your fantasy look slim to none. That leaves room for products like Neonode's AirBar to fill in that gap. We took the new MacBook Air-compatible AirBar for a spin at CES 2017.

New Atlas demoed the OSSIC X 3D headphones at CES 2017. Our conclusion? OSSIC's take on 3D sound is perfect for VR. The headphones provide an excellent directional listening experience that is niche at present, but OSSIC hopes it will work its way into VR, music and film.

Most breast pumps require secluded privacy to use, oftentimes leashing women to wall outlets and/or bulky tote bags. The Willow wearable breast pump, showcased at CES 2017​, promises freedom with a wireless ​hands-free design that slips right under one's clothing.

Sony continues to grow its home theater lineup with its latest projector, the VPL-VZ1000ES. The HDR-compatible 4K projector can produce a large 100 inch image while positioned a mere 6 inches away from a wall, making it a good fit for homes without a dedicated media room.

The all-in-one BassPro Go is a hybrid car subwoofer and Bluetooth speaker that deepens the bass of your in-vehicle audio system before popping out of the car and playing tunes on the move.

Our CES demo with Cerevo’s Taclim haptic boots and gloves left us unimpressed. It also made us realize that haptic foot feedback is low on our VR wishlist.

Last year we covered a wickedly simple product called QuietOn: earplugs with built-in active noise cancellation (ANC). This week at CES 2017, we got our first hands-on.

​Retro gaming has been making a comeback of sorts, led by the popularity of the hard-to-find NES Classic​. Innex and Retro-Bit, companies devoted to this niche long before it went mainstream, hope to capitalize on the surge in popularity with the Super Retro Boy.

Panasonic becomes yet another company to show its vision of the car cabin of the future at CES this week. Its concept explores next-gen tech like interactive 4K displays, augmented reality, personal audio zones and facial recognition.

Samsung unveiled a few new laptops at CES 2017: An updated Notebook 9, the Android-supporting Chromebook Plus and Pro, and its first gaming laptop, the Notebook Odyssey. New Atlas braved the company’s swamped booth to get some hands-on time with each.
