The last day of CES is always a bit of mixed bag. Many of the attendees are already at the airport, heading back home to be with their families in time for the weekend. So, while some key personnel may be missing at certain booths, the sea of humanity that was on the floor during the week has now turned into a giant lake, providing you much needed breathing room to check things out at your own pace.
It's also the last chance to
experience things you may heard others talk about, but not been able to see
yourself because there's limited time and despite multiple submissions, the
powers to be keep rejecting your application that'll let you be at two places
at once. Here's our final diary of the day from CES 2015 in Las Vegas.
While Google's
self-driving cars are
widely known, the major players in the auto sector have made plenty of progress
as well. Mercedes and Audi, amongst others, used the floors at CES 2015 to
provide updates on their autonomous driving efforts.
Mercedes showed off the F 015
Luxury in Motion concept car that'll drive itself and has interiors which will
remind you of a plane, rather than a traditional car. Though plenty of
regulatory and technological hurdles remain, this is one area worth closely
watching in the near future.
The 'Super Phone'
Saygus V2 has generated plenty of buzz at CES as the
phone with 320GB internal storage, and while that headline is slightly
misleading (more on that later), there's a lot more to the phone.
Saygus, the Salt Lake
City-based company behind the V2 (pronounced V-Squared), says the idea is to
build a "super phone" with no compromises. So, the Saygus V2 comes
with a 5-inch full-HD display, 21-megapixel rear & 13-megapixel front
cameras (both with optical image stabilisation), 3GB RAM, 2.5GHz Qualcomm
Snapdragon 810 chipset, wireless charging, noise cancellation, fingerprint
scanner, sound tech from Harman Kardon, and a lot more.
The phone comes with 64GB
internal storage, and two microSDXC slots with maximum capacity of 128GB each -
not the same thing as having 320GB built-in storage as the headlines have may
misled you into believing, but a pretty sweet thing nonetheless.
