The coolest thing you didn't see at CES 2020
A stunning 8k, 3D display. And no glasses, thankfully, unlike the failed 3D TVs. Why didn't you see it? It wasn't on the show floor. But I did, high up in the Venetian, and I'm wondering ...
From 2000-2012 the winners of the Best of Show award have had very spotty track records and many were destined for failure.
The Best of CES 2013 award winner was just announced, so it's a good time to look back at the winners from 2000-2103 and see where they ended up. We'll be looking at some products that took off, while others at least introduced ground-breaking technology. And don't forget the complete failures. As Matt Baxter-Reynolds wrote , "most of the solutions at CES are looking for a solution." Companies that were good at this were successful while those that weren't lost a lot of money.
2013 winner: The winner of this year's Best of Show award is the Razor Edge, a 10-inch, Windows 8 gaming tablet. The Edge adds gaming console-like buttons and sticks and makes the Edge a large gaming handheld. To develop Edge, Razor used a crowd-sourcing experiment to find out what potential users want in a mobile gaming sytem. CNET says the Edge "looks like a tablet but has the guts of a high-powered ultrabook."
