CES 2012 Day 1 – Tech Shows No Signs of Slowing
Day 1 of CES 2012 was nearly impossible to reach the levels to which it was promoted (OK, hyped). But there was still a ton of great stuff to get pretty excited about. Among the things that were notable (from companies big and small in no particular order):
-
- An incredible 55″ OLED 3D display from LG, the best standard HD image at the show
-
- A nearly equally impressive 84″ 4K passive 3D display that was literally breathtaking (yes, even after following tech so closely)
-
- An 8K (yes, full 7680 x 4320, astounding) display from sharp that measured 85″ large and was insanely clear (no word on when we may see one in the wild)
-
- The announcement of the Nokia 900 to debut on AT&T’s 4G LTE network “in the coming months”. Featuring a 4.3 inch display and LTE, it only has 16GB of storage and a single core processor. It really needs more space. However, it is still a very impressive handset.
-
- A new automobile mount from a new company that was very impressive, along with a clever camera case which enabled the shooting of video while holding the phone horizontally
