Sony

i have not been able to find any of the keynotes as video. i do not think they did live streams for this.

CNET is showing a video stream at least.

Kaz talking about the history of Sony. They just can't let Betamax go :laugh:

Interesting, Kaz just used the 'One Sony' line. Seems like MS isn't the only ones trying to tell that story of a family of devices under one core idea.

There hasn't been much in the way of product/service announcement, but I have to say the keynote has been well done so far.

A CES keynote has to offer a positive vision on the future and how tech relates to that. Sony has done that at least. These keynotes are usually meant to be more about the general outlook on tech with a slant towards the company presenting the keynote.

Apple has been doing that since before windows.  Their whole idea of phones, mp3 players, tablets, etc all running iOS.  I think lots of companies are going that way.

Yeah, I was talking about the more public announcement of something like One MS or One Sony.

Of course Apple and even Google are aiming for the same thing.

Kaz is coming off as very passionate and it resonates with me. Great to see him talking in this format.

But nothing else mentioned about the VR headset though, so that didn't happen.

But heck, I'll take the backwards compatibility server and tv service announcements over a VR headset.

Life Space UX being shown off.

 

Looks to be similar to illuminroom that Microsoft showed but for movies. Basically a fancy projector to watch movies with. 4K compatible of course. 147" images. Releasing in US in summer 2014.

 

Life Space UX

 

 

 

illumiroom was just a projector which expanded your tv's image, this thing is in a completely different field. Touch screen furniture and close range projections at 4k resolution.

 

I like the skylight which projects an image on your roof making it seem like you have a skylight and are in the same place as the image on-screen projects. I see a lot of possibilities for the touch-screen mirror. (e.g Having it link to facebook and having a wall of pictures which you can scroll through with the touch features, no need to put up single framed pictures anymore. Or linking it with your tv, projector or ps4 and have it as a movie library where you can scroll through your movie collection or allow friends/family to scroll through and pick one which then starts the movie on your tv or projector (or tv via ps4), Plus many other possibilities.)

 

The touch-screen on the coffee table looks okay and would be useful for checking weather and reading the news when waking up and having breakfast / coffee in the morning but I don't see myself using it very often if I had one.

    • Just the price of doing business. The scamble to pull as much from the web as possible is happening, and it's happening before a case like this changes how or what is legal do to with AI in terms of data harvesting. But even then as we've seen with the likes of Google who ignore cookie requests and just accept the fact they'll get fined, it's built into their business price model now. AI is here, its not going away. Their reward if any from the court case would be best suited to trying to incorprate AI or licence their end points as authentic human verified content. The problem is, as we've seen these same news papers are using AI themselves.

    • This Chinese company is reportedly developing a feature Apple and Samsung can only dream of by Hamid Ganji While companies like Apple and Samsung have been relatively conservative with their devices’ battery capacities in recent years, Chinese manufacturers have taken the competition to the next level by introducing significantly larger batteries. However, the latest report from China suggests that a local company may already be developing a smartphone with a whopping 14,000mAh battery. Chinese leaker Digital Chat Station claimed on Weibo that a smartphone maker is developing a device with a 14,000mAh battery. If true, it would be the largest battery ever used in a smartphone and could, in theory, provide up to a week of battery life on a single charge. The leaker did not reveal the name of the company behind the device, but there are some clues. This week, HONOR unveiled the X80 Pro Max in China with an 11,000mAh battery and 90W wired charging support. The company also launched the Honor Win in January, which packs a 10,000mAh battery. HONOR, a former subsidiary of Huawei, has a proven track record of developing smartphones with unusually large batteries. However, other Chinese brands, including Xiaomi, have also launched devices such as the Xiaomi 17 Pro Max with 7,500mAh batteries. Though Chinese users on Weibo also believe the company behind the new battery is HONOR. Interestingly, Digital Chat Station said the device with the 14,000mAh battery weighs around 220 grams, making it lighter than the Apple iPhone 17 Pro Max (233 grams) and slightly heavier than the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra (214 grams). The iPhone 17 Pro Max currently packs a 5,088mAh battery in eSIM-only versions, while the Galaxy S26 Ultra features a 5,000mAh battery. Neither device is expected to see a dramatic increase in battery capacity in its next-generation successor. So when it comes to battery comparison, Chinese brands are unbeaten. HONOR smartphones are currently available in the EU, but the Chinese brand has no official presence in the United States due to restrictions imposed by the U.S. government.
