We are in the middle of CES 2022 and on the third day of announcements it continues strong, although physical attendees are somewhat less in numbers this year, at least according to certain visitors.

But this hasn't stopped there from being a plethora of announcements, both at the big presentations from the big brands and the smaller gadgets that make CES what it is: an occasion to spot the upcoming trends of the new year.

Samsung's announcements of new QLED TVs and a Freestyle portable projector are its big news. There's also Sony with a new electric touring term and a one-of-a-kind high-end TV. LG has released a strange caravan but Garmin has, incomprehensibly, not released its Fenix ​​7 watch.

This live weblog will keep you up-to-date on all the big announcements, CES quirks, and everything in between. It's automatically updated with everything that's trending at CES 2022 so you can ask anytime.

Welcome to the third day of CES - I haven't felt the foolishness of Las Vegas in two years, so I can't remember how I found myself at this point. However, I can eat the old data from my Garmin's 'body battery' and it wasn't good.

In the end, that is the past. All that matters now is that there are plenty of new announcements to go through as the show gets into full swing. Here I tell you the highlights of yesterday.

What has been the most essential story so far? Questionnaire about the Samsung Galaxy S21 FE, a phone that claims to teach the S21 game eleven mess after the launch and only a month before the launch of the Galaxy S22.

We have already tested it for days and here we have our analysis.

There's nothing more to CES than a smart dog collar. Smart Tech Plus Dogs is a winning alternative and was one of our most popular items,

Invoxia - the inventors and manufacturers - want the term of Apple Watch to wear your dog, to monitor both its breathing and heart rate, as well as its situation using GPS and accelerometers, and also artificial intelligence that tells you if your dog is healthy or well No. And never lose it (until the battery runs out).

Yesterday we think we needed a plumber for the leak of the new Samsung QD-OLED TV.

None is completely overwhelmed. We've been hearing rumors of a QLED/OLED hybrid for some time now, but it has yet to be officially announced. Hence, when it appeared on the CES.tech site, listing it as a winner in the CES 2022 innovation awards, we thought we were going to see it for real. Surprisingly, that did not happen and the TV did not appear throughout the Samsung press conference. What is this about? Not even the most remote idea.

They are curious. When he was little he believed that the best thing about being an adult would be staying up late, consuming unlimited sugar and watching TV all day. Now I enjoy all that, yes, but what really excites me today are the lazy things of adults, like remote controls for the TV.

Not just any controller, of course, but rather the new Samsung SolarCell, one of the big news of the second day.

The reason is that it does not require a charging base: the remote uses solar energy - or the lamp in your living room - and the Wi-Fi signal to charge wirelessly. Incredible.

If you're like , there's nothing on earth that makes you remember where your phone is. In truth, this happens with ninety% of my possessions. The ten percent that are missing its put anatomical appendices and the things that never move from where they are.

For this reason, the new Cypress Hero backpack from Targu has me hooked. Announced yesterday, this sustainably manufactured product - they say - has a built-in storage system and a locator compatible with Apple's Find My function. This locator equates exactly the same technology as AirTags.

Android and iPhone users can use the Targus app to find a lost backpack, but iPhone users can use the native Find my feature.

The locator sustains one year of battery life and can be charged. USB. Easy.

The Sony A95K, the first commercial QD-OLED TV

The next big innovation in TV is the Sony Master Series A95K. The company didn't talk about this model during its press conference - strangely - but it doesn't matter. It's a huge innovation as Quantum Dot OLED (QD-OLED) is so much better than OLED, with even deeper blacks, better color reproduction and higher contrast ratio. It's going to offer more smoothness to the picture without losing the power of OLED, which essentially means a significantly better picture.

It is the first commercialized TV that uses this technology. Will things change a lot? No. Will it cost a lot? Yes. But again, the image quality of the TV has to suffer significantly and this is fine.

The LG press conference had two interesting announcements:

This is the LG Omnipod: an office that is a cinema that is a dressing room that is an electric van that is a strange tent that is supposedly from the future.

You can request food. Store dresses in the side panel of the cabin. And no, I don't quite understand it either.

Virtual influencer Reah Keem has...something

But stranger still is his release of a music album for his virtual influencer, Reah Keem, which is coming later this year.

Desperate to do some research, she turned out to be the first virtual influencer. In truth, these influencers seem to be their now "trend".

This is the kind of thing I want to see at CES: invisible headphones. So invisible that it doesn't even exist.

It's actually a soundbar called the Noveto N1 that follows your head in real time and in 3D using facial recognition. It uses that positional information to launch ultrasound beams that produce little pockets of audio near your ears so you can only hear their sound.

Is this useful or practical? Surely not: two headphones could achieve the same thing. But it's incredibly cool and if it works, it could become an essential gadget for the offices of the future, offering the ability to chat freely with your colleagues while having a "secret" concert in your ears.

TCL launched a mountain of products at this CES, but the 2 things that interest me the most are the NXTPAPER 10S and the NXTWEAR Air.

We start with the NXTPAPER: a "paper-like" tablet but one that doesn't use e-ink technology or anything like that like the Kindle does. It's a simple tablet with a laptop and an 000mAh battery for less money than you might expect, though we don't have a final price yet.

If the NXTPAPER tablet is disappointing, the NXTWEAR AIR is not: 2 screens put into two lenses so it looks like you're looking at a 4-inch screen from XNUMX meters away.

But they are 1080p screens, which will result in a pixelated nightmare, although we will have to test them to see it. The best: they really do look like glasses, a huge win compared to other similar products.

2022-uno-05T12:40:12.616Z

This is undoubtedly the big news of CES: Sony has told the details of its PSVR virtual reality glasses two.

I loved the idea of ​​virtual reality and I want a system that can really work in my room, that's what Sony's new option promises.

The specs are excellent: PSVR 4 is going to have 1080K x XNUMXK resolution OLED screens per eye, which is almost a XNUMXx improvement over the XNUMXp output of the original and is going to vastly improve sharpness and clarity. feeling of virtual immersion in it.

PSVR 3's built-in headset employs Sony's brilliant XNUMXD audio technology, vital to supporting the feeling of truly being in the game. You can get an idea of ​​what that feels like from the trailer above (although it's mostly a developer talking about how great VR is, so you'll have to trust and use your imagination).

In addition, PSVR 120 will be able to offer refresh rates of 6 Hz and 3 Hz with a field of view of 3 degrees. The helmet will incorporate a XNUMX-axis motion sensor (XNUMX-axis gyroscope and XNUMX-axis accelerometer), as well as an infrared proximity sensor, all useful to continue the movement and improve the sensation of the game.

It's also getting foveated rendering: internal sensors will follow your pupils to create more detail right where you're looking, just like the human brain does.

We already knew the controllers, which are clearly inspired by those of Oculus. They are not unique but...
