What To Look For in CES 2012

As we all know, Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas will be a treat with new trends such as Android Ice Cream Sandwich, Microsoft’s new OS, and much more. Let’s take a glance at several trends that we are expecting in CES 2012.

Tablets with Ice Cream Sandwich

Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich has become popular in very short period of time, so after smartphones, tablets must have touch of it. With its finesse, multitasking is simply a cup of tea, and it certainly goes well with smartphones. However, whether it will be compatible with larger devices is yet mystery. Currently, Kindle Fire is the only Android Tablet that sells like hot cakes, but it uses Google’s software.

So, the mystery might be solved at CES 2012!

Finally Windows 8!

May be this year will be blessed with Microsoft’s most anticipated Windows 8 or may be Steve Ballmer will again explain the scope of their new OS, while ending the speech with “The progress still continues..”

However, we can always hope! As we are already aware of Windows Store, where we can download Windows Apps, Microsoft may come up with the public Beta version of Windows 8. More details regarding the software and its compatibility with notebooks are expected. Overall, we cannot say anything until the show. However, there are some rumors about Microsoft backing off from January event. Well, time will decide it.

Windows Phone Mango & Nokia

With Android’s known success, Microsoft’s Windows Phone 7.5 is not making any news in market. Nokia is hoping to change the situation in 2012 by launching new member of Lumia series. It will have 4G LTE capability with AT&T as a carrier; however Varizon also has similar chances.

What will come out with this union? You will have to wait for the show.

Ultrabooks with Less Price

With Apple’s 15-inch Macbook Air rumors, we can easily expect more aspiring Windows notebooks in CES 2012. Following the Intel’s definition of ultrabooks, ultrathin laptops (13-inch screen size), with fast boot & resume time, are anticipated.

With theses updated features, wares will be made economic. So, CES 2012 may bring ultrabooks that are affordable for consumers as well as for business crowd with their effective features.

Smartphones with Nvidia’s Quad-Core

We have already seen ASUS’s Eee Pad Transformer Prime tablet which is provided with Nvidia’s Quad-Core, now it’s time for Smartphones! Quad-Core is really efficient with competent CPU and power management technique. We are expecting details regarding the application of Nvidia’s Quad-Core Tegra 3 chip inside the handsets.

There are rumors of HTC being the first phone with Tegra chip, but nothing is revealed yet.

Stylish Wearable Devices

Many companies are making wearable devices more smart and efficient as they have become a glamour quotient. We are expecting such devices at CES 2012. These intelligent devices are set to change your life drastically.

Anyone using iPhone doesn’t settle with ordinary wearable devices. Keeping this fact in mind, Apple is currently working on these devices, which can communicate with iPhone. Bendable iPod is one of these devices. Apple is not alone; Google is also coming up with pair of glasses for displaying the information on screen.

So this New Year will also bring new technologies in the market, however how many of them will make it, is still a question!
