Great New Gadgets at CES 2015

Last week’s Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas once again delivered the goods by providing us with an overwhelming display of weird and wonderful new tech products. From Wifi coffee machines that could be remotely trigged to produce a beverage of your choice, to electronic roller-skates that could propel you down the street at high speed, there was nothing that the exciting new world of technology couldn’t be applied to.

Last week’s Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas once again delivered the goods by providing us with an overwhelming display of weird and wonderful new tech products.

From Wifi coffee machines that could be remotely trigged to produce a beverage of your choice, to electronic roller-skates that could propel you down the street at high speed, there was nothing that the exciting new world of technology couldn’t be applied to.

4K televisions

The hottest trend of the show had to be 4K televisions. Featuring a super-high resolution technology, the so-called Ultra HD televisions deliver four times the detail of standard HD televisions.

With all of the big players such Sony, Samsung and LG releasing new models, it’s going to be interesting to see who can capitalise on our ever-growing demand for a hyper-realistic viewing experience.

The new televisions will all let viewers watch streaming content without the need for streaming devices such as Apple TV. So you'll soon be able to easily switch between watching a streamed film on Amazon, go to a betting website such as http://www.bettingsports.com, and then switch over back to some standard terrestrial television!
