I can hear the breath of CES 2011 behind me, waking up to the bitter cold of New Year’s Day next month. Tech addicts always look forward to the annual January for the biggest technology and electronic device exhibition event – ​​Consumer Electronics Show (CES), which covers the full range of technological devices and vendors in various fields. This is the place where the industry meets, does business, and most importantly to you, releases new kits. After enjoying chocolates, candies and presents from Santa Claus, cheering up the New Year holidays, tech faithful will express their love by enjoying this exclusive show a week later in Las Vegas, helping consumers and experts to visualize the Technological market and the future. trends and patterns for the coming year.

Tablet PC: the future ruler

When the giant Apple presented its Ipad about 1 year ago, specialists made predictions about the absolute dominance of Tablet PC in several years. This prognosis seems to come true. CES 2011 is just a few weeks away. And the main concept of the event is expected to be tablets and perhaps smarter smartphones.

Gartner, the prestigious technology research and analysis board, released a report in which it made predictions about tablet PC sales in the coming period. Notably, this number may sell up to 54.8 million items in the following year and reach an “incredible” 208 million units in 2014. These impressive numbers increase the likelihood that Tablet PC stores at CES will attract the most attention. and make the Full Coverage this time. It must be all about Ipad or at least it used to be, Apple would be the one. Google pushed its Android trend as Apple’s most dangerous and vital competitors that cannot be caught earlier since the time of Samsung Tab or Dell Streak. Of course we can let BlackBerry lovers out, Research In Motion (RIM) can stay out of the game. Its debut Honey PlayBook will appear at CES to send a warning to Apple and Google. Also, Microsoft doesn’t let everyone have the fun of releasing models like the View Pad and HP Slate. With great achievements in the PC operating system, Mr. Gate’s own son is definitely an up-and-coming giant in the tablet market. Anyway, there are rumors that Microsoft has been building a series of tablets for this event. Obviously they will have touch screens with multi-touch support. But what’s new is that these will have a physical full QWERTY slide-out keyboard and HTML5 support. So what do you think? Will you go for such a tablet, or other vendors, or Mr. Apple? Please, he will count backwards to the day.

Incoming 3D OLED TV

At CES 2010, Internet-connected LED and flat-panel displays have relative but not-so-abundant coverage. What a difference a year makes though. OLED TV would be the undisputed star of this year’s show, backed by some of the biggest names in the consumer electronics business. The traditional LCD screen will look like old technology at CES 2011: it will be LED all the time. Movement in next-generation OLED technology has been slow so far, with only Sony, Samsung, and LG really showing any value.

For the past year or so, OLED (Organic Light Emitting Diode) TVs have been on the minds of home theater lovers everywhere. With incredibly high contrast ratios and a thickness that measures in millimeters, OLED TVs certainly look like the future of home theater.

In the marketing plan, Samsung plans to commercialize this technology by 2013 and introduce rollable OLED TVs to consumers. I’ll believe it when I see it. There have been so many OLED TV announcements in recent years that it’s hard to get very excited when almost every announcement from every OLED manufacturer turns out to be nothing. While Samsung seems a bit unsure about when they’ll be producing OLED TVs, LG has set a clear date. Apparently it’s 2011: while they’ll also be investing in next-generation LCD production lines, the plan is to have volume production of 32-inch OLED displays within three years.

While new technology always comes at a high price, some expect the price of OLED lighting to drop sometime in 2011. Active OLED lighting will go mainstream in two years, and its revenue will exceed that of passive LED lighting at some point. circa 2018. However, price is a major hurdle for the technology to overcome.

Also, 3D TV was in the novelty ‘concept’ stage and was the top topic along with all the companies that talked about the environment last year. This is a bit of an odd thing to hear in Las Vegas, which is arguably the least eco-friendly place known to man. Expect those companies that haven’t gone big on 3D yet, like Sharp, to go fully 3D this time. We’ll also look at many universal glasses available – specs you can use with multiple 3D TVs, not just one manufacturer’s. And expect a lot more hype behind 3D Blu-ray.

age of smartphones

Since the day Android was born, iOS has not been the subject of monolatry in the mobile OS market. Months later, Microsoft released the new Windows Mobile 7 operating system. The race is on, Android and Windows sales are catching up with the iPhone, and we all know that a race is a winner. Android is an operating system used by multiple vendors, so we need to consider Apple’s iOS ecosystem and what these respective products bring to the market. Android is a remarkable product, and if it weren’t for the iPhone, it would be way ahead of anything else in its field, but the iPhone and iOS mobile platform came first. However, if you’re a cell phone manufacturer looking for a low-cost licensed operating system, Android is a clear winner. If you’re a cellular carrier looking to offer a family of attractive “smartphones” that you can customize to add “carrier value,” again Android is a winner. Meanwhile, Windows Phone 7 is Microsoft’s latest attempt to create a mobile operating system that anyone will want to use. And this time, Microsoft seems to have been very successful. Windows Phone 7 is a sleek and sophisticated operating system with all the power one would expect from any version of iOS. This is the conclusion of practical experience with various Windows Phone 7 devices.

In fact, smartphones have recently become a shining star at CES and the superstar this time might be Google. Google has unveiled its latest version of the Android platform, Gingerbread, and is introducing the next Android device in the Nexus line of mobile products: Nexus S. And for developers, the Gingerbread SDK/NDK is also available. It is the first Android device to ship with the new version of the Android platform. Google co-developed this product with Samsung, ensuring tight hardware and software integration to highlight the latest advances in the Android platform. As part of the Nexus brand, the Nexus S offers “what people call a ‘pure Google’ experience: unfiltered, unlocked access to the best Google mobile services and the latest and greatest Android releases and updates,” it reports. Google. Along with Google, other familiar providers are also joining for the pie like Samsung, LG, Nokie, Sony. And the main focus of the integrated platform would be BlackBerry, Iphone, Android, Symbian and Windows, which have been around for a long time.
