Since 1978, the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) has brought together tech giants and startups in Las Vegas to unveil the innovations of tomorrow. The 2025 edition is scheduled for January 7 to 10, but the first announcements begin on January 5.
From January 4 to 10, 2025, Numerama is in Las Vegas to bring you CES 2025. Like every year, several thousand exhibitors from around the world take advantage of the world's largest show dedicated to innovation to unveil new products. CES is known for its gadgets, but is also a place where many technological revolutions have taken place. CES 2025 will focus on the integration of generative artificial intelligence in sectors like connected homes, cars, and even smart glasses.
What are the major trends to follow at CES 2025? This article offers you some predictions for the year 2025 of new technologies.

The connected home, robots and artificial intelligence stronger than ever?
On the program for this CES 2025, we can expect a lot of artificial intelligence. Chatbots ChatGPT (OpenAI), Gemini (Google), Meta AI, Claude (Anthropic) or Grok (xAI) are expected to be integrated into many products for the very first time. We particularly expect to see them land in household appliances and in the connected home, but also in cars or connected glasses.
Another expected trend: the generation of the Matter protocol in the connected home, notably with the first robot vacuum cleaners compatible with this standard. Connected locks could also come in force, as this segment gains popularity.
In addition to announcements on mixed/augmented reality, new consoles in the Steam Deck style, the arrival of new giant televisions (which were the big stars of CES 2024, with transparent screens) and the presentation of new cars futuristic (often conceptual), CES 2025 could also be dedicated to robots. The AI era makes domestic robots increasingly plausible, although these products are likely several years away. In the meantime, robots dedicated to specific tasks, such as tidying up or cleaning, should continue to multiply.
What about major conferences? In addition to the essential Samsung, LG, Sony and Panasonic, the stars of CES 2025 are Nvidia (which is coming for the first time), the HDMI consortium (which will unveil the new HDMI 2.2 standard) and X, Elon's social network Musk, who is organizing a self-promotion operation with an interview undoubtedly scripted to glorify the platform (which is nevertheless in turmoil). The airline Delta will also present its vision on the future of airplanes, which may be interesting.
The Nintendo Switch 2, surprise guest at CES 2025?
Nintendo is not present at CES, but rumors about the Switch 2 could steal the spotlight at the Las Vegas show. Like the Apple Vision Pro last year, Nintendo's new console should be available in all languages. Several prop makers plan to exhibit accessories and models of the product. According to rumors, an announcement of the Switch 2 in the middle of CES is not impossible. Nintendo loves it when people talk about it.
Numerama will meet you all week from Las Vegas, for CES 2025. First stop on the evening of January 5 (January 6 in the morning for France), with CES Unveiled dedicated to startups and announcements from Samsung.
