Hey Everybody has Lon Seidman This is Dispatch number Four from
Ces and I want to thank Everyone for the great Feedback we've Had it Actually Helped guide Me in The Process here so we're Gonna
do
One last day of some quick hits stuff Around the Show Floor which I'll Talk about in Just a second but I do is Always
Want to Remind you that silicon Dust the Makers of the?
Hd Homerun My Favorite
Over-The-Air Or Cable Cord Cutting Device is Sponsoring our
Content This week so
Be sure to thank them Down Below in The Comment Stream they Made all of This Possible so they've Been A big Help They
Do A lot of great Products and We covered that, we're Gonna Have an interview with them up Tomorrow
So be on the Lookout for that so i also want to thank Goldie Chan Behind the Camera who Can't Actually
Be Seen at the moment
We put some B-Roll in She's Been Helping me Out With Camerawork and all the other Things that go?
Into The Content You See this Week you really can't do this Show alone that
Was one of The Points I wanted to bring up on the?
Opening Intro of This Video Because this Show Is so enormous so we're in Just one Hall of this entire Thing Which Basically Takes
Over Most of Las Vegas so there are Three Huge exhibit halls
Just in This Building There's Another Building
Over There Another one On the other Side of That Building
There's More Stuff Across The Street A lot of the bigger brands Just have suites and All these Hotels that are Located Throughout the Area
Here so I was hoping to Catch up with Asus but They're in the Trump tower all the way over There
We just can't get There and Back Here and get all the things
We want to Cover in so a lot of Things?
We're not going to be able to See and I wanted to set this Shot Up in Front of C net here Because it Really
Just Gives you an idea of the kind of resources it Takes to
Fully Cover this Show Which Is why I look for things that are a little Different and Unique
Because They often Missed or don't get the Same kind of Focus that you Would hope to get with a bigger Organization
Covering it's you Really got to look at
What you're able to do and then?
Work Within Those Limitations it's Actually Kind of fun to try to do as much as you Can Without?
Running out of steam so last Night I went to a party at the nVidia Suite and I got to try out
Oculus touch so you, don't know I have an HTc
Vive That I've Been very happy with and I got to try out the oculus and the oculus is pretty Nice Actually I haven't Tried
One before the last night and the headset Is very Lightweight the Resolution and Just the overall Feel of the VR
Experience Feels very Much the Same so it's Almost like they Both, Made Use of Whatever available Technology There
Was in Their Products Because Things Really do Look and Feel the same but
The Oculus Felt a little bit more Comfortable the Touch Controllers Are Pretty decent Actually kind of prefer the
HTC Ones Maybe Just Because I'm more used to them There's more Buttons on the oculus Controllers but they did A Decent
Least decent way of Tracking Motion and Movement and Felt in Line With what I have Experienced with the HTC
Product but There's no Room Scale yet With oculus so i think HTC still has The Edge They are Really excited to see Where
VR Is Headed There's a bunch of VR
Stuff Here A lot of it Actually in fact the gaming Hall, was Filled With it I didn't Really See anything that
Was all That Groundbreaking or Better than oculus or the vibe Although that ar glasses from from Otg, We looked at last night
We're Really Really good so today
We're Just going to start Roaming Around so be on the Lookout for a whole bunch of Content Hopefully I
Was trying to do like A big Wrap-Up of All the Pc Makers here but They're so spread out and Some of Them are not
Really Having much of a presence at the Show they're Just doing private Meeting so i didn't get everybody in so we're Gonna Try to
Get some of These Products and I'm Hearing About Into Review so you're Gonna See some Pcs but
Not A full Representation of the Pcs here at ces alright
so, we are Checking out some Pcs over here at the lenovo Booth this is the Thinkpad X1
Carbon very Lightweight is about Two and a half Pounds it Feels like an Ultrabook I guess it kind
Of Is but it has an I7 Processor on board as one of the
Configuration Options it's With the the new Architecture so the Graphics Should be Pretty Quick on this one
And i really like how Lightweight this Is for A
Full-Featured I7 Laptop it's Certainly A Lot lighter Than my macbook pro is so not too Bad
We're Gonna Be Doing A closer look at these when
We get in Our review Loners so we'll Definitely put it Through its Paces and Here's Just A quick Comparison With last Year's X1
They Got the Bezels A lot, Smaller by, redesigning the Camera so same size Screen but it's Smaller now Because the Camera
Doesn't Take as much of the Bezel up as it used to so they
Were able to cut A lot of Space or size out of that screen yet
Keep the Screen Size Itself the Same all right so they, also have some new Gaming Laptops to Take a look at
Also this is the Y520
it's going to start at
$899 Which Is a pretty good Price for a Gaming Laptop and what's Been Happening With NVidia
Is that They've Taken Their new Pascal?
Architecture Those 1050 1060 Chips and They're Putting Them Into Laptops so this one Here I don't know if this is the $899
Configuration But I'm Pretty Sure you're Gonna Get A 1050
On This One Which will be Faster than last year's Mobile Chips by a good Margin
Then You Have the higher end Model here Which can go up to A
1060 so These Are Really Decent Little Gaming Laptops and I think will be a lot Faster than the ones We looked at Earlier This
Year Alright so now we're over at HP and They've got some Really Cool-Looking
All-In-Ones Here This is the
Hp Envy it's A 34 inch All-In-one so your Computer is down Here
They Have a couple of Different Options on Cpus and Everything you can get a nvidia 950 in Here They
Also Said They Have some amd Options, also
It's not quite a gaming Machine but it's Definitely good for Video Editing and Stuff They've got a recessed
Web Camera Here for Those of you that put
Tape on your Webcams you don't have to anymore you can do that and it's got a sound bar on here That sounds Pretty Decent
Actually we're in A noisy Room so it's really Hard to hear it
Well but it does Sound Pretty good?
At least to my Ears and then we've got a Control here for the music so you have some
capacitive Controls Over There and You Can Charge your Phone on this Thing right There so pretty cool
Looking Device Here a nice wide Screen and Probably good for doing
Content Creation and That Kind of Thing so now we've got the hp Spectre 15 this Is an x
360 Device it Turns Into A tablet if You want so you've got two touchscreen
On here Again 4K Is a really nice Looking Display, on here I7 it's got an Nvidia GTx
940m they, also put Some
Thunderbolt Usb Type-C Ports on the Side but you still get A regular
Usb Port on the other Side HDmi out and A card Reader so A few More Ports than the Mac has Pretty Nice
Compact Laptop I Guess This one They Said Is a little Thicker than the prior Generation because they put a larger Battery in it
to Keep the Battery life Consistent even Though it's got that much larger Display and We got a look at the new dell xPs 13
2 in One so they've Created A
Tablet Laptop Hybrid it Looks A lot like the dell xPs 13
Laptop But it's A lot Thinner and A lot lighter it's running with the
Low Powered I5 and I7 Chips These used to be Known as core M Processors but They are Now Giving them the full I
5/7 Designation but Are Putting A
Lower Power Consuming Chip in There so These are Essentially the next Generation of the core m it is the Kb lake
Generation it's thin and Fanless it goes Up to A qhd Display and it has A fingerprint reader now of
They Relocated The Camera it's Now in the Center but it's Still on the Bottom of the Display all right
We're at the Kodak Booth and we're Taking a look at a new super 8 Film
Movie Camera yes it does Film not Video and it's Coming out from kodak you're Gonna Have a limited release of this Thing so like
Many of These Really Nice Retro Devices We've Seen it's Gonna Start Around
$2,000 when it Comes out it does come with A lens it's Micro Four-Thirds
Compatible so if you have one of Those C Mount lenses you can put that Lens on this Camera and it Shoots to Film and
What you do With that Film is you Buy it from kodak
When you're Done You take the Film and Mail it back to them now it's Interesting Is that in the Past on These Old super
8 movie Cameras you Couldn't Record Audio this Camera Does so what it's going to, do
Is give you a preview Image
Digitally in The Screen that is attached to it and it will, also
Record Audio Onto An Sd Card and Then when you mail the film back you send back the Audio With It and you get Back
A high-Definition movie file on a memory stick or a flash Card or some other Medium and you have now A
Film Recording That They Have Transferred to Essentially
Hd Video for you Really neat concept not going to be for everybody
Definitely More of an Enthusiast Product after These first
Two thousand Or so are being Sold as a special Edition are Done They'll have A less
Expensive Version It'll Still be Pricey Because this is going to be kind of a limited release Product but It'll Probably be under
$2,000 when The Main Release Comes out but Keep a family Member that lived Through the?
60S and 70S and before that Perhaps they Would really be interested in This I think it might be A good gift idea if You've
Got that Kind of Money to Spend so we got wooden Cases leather Cases and Now Astroturf
Here's Another Neat Little Thing That Actually serves a Purpose These are Called the Remo vu wind Jackets and
They Look Cute But They Actually Help With Wind noise because they are what are Essentially Dead Cats That Wrap Around your Gopro they cost
About $24 on Amazon They
Also Have this Little Thing Called the
S-1 it is A rain Proof Three Access A head mountable gimbal so if it's on a top of A helmet that May be Stabilized
your Shots a little Better
So, we're here at the Knee Booth This is Actually Short for xiaomi and of Course
We looked at the me Box Just Recently Which Is they're Pretty much Their first Major North American
Product This was Found in Walmart
We did a pretty good review on that one and Thanks to our viewer trent Hoberman who got
One for Us very Early now the
Performance of the Box was okay but it wasn't As fast as I would like it to be now they have a me Box Pro
That Is not Available Anywhere Outside of China, or maybe India so you can't get This in Many Places just yet This?
One's only $58, Overseas it's Faster it Supports Dolby True, HD and DTS
HD Those Lossless Formats That the other Box, did not it, also has more, usb Ports as
Well so a little Beefier Box but Unfortunately
We can't Get it Here in The United States Just yet but Those of you in India or China might be able to get A
Hold of One and We also Found this Little Guy This is the me Box Mini it Is Just a little Plug that you?
Plug Into your Wall it's got an Hdmi Output for your Television not very fast it's only got
A gig of Ram it lines Up a lot with Those
Hdmi Sticks We've Looked at Recently only 26 Bucks but only in China at the moment
And Here's Another Computer you can't get in the us or most of the World for that Matter this is the me Notebook Thirteen Point
Three This Thing has got A Lot packed Into it and it's not that Expensive at Least in China at the moment so
13.3 inch 1080p Display
Very Similar to the Twelve and A half inch me Air that We looked at just a couple of Weeks ago
That One, Had A core M3 Processor this, one has an I-5 so it's got the full-Blown mobile Intel Processor but They
Also managed to get a GPU inside as
A GTX
940
so in 940 Mx to be exact
so there is some Cooling on the Bottom here which you don't have on the meet Air Which was Familis but it Really Feels about
The Same weight it's not all that Heavy Really
Really Nice Computer and I'm Really Hoping I can get my Hands on One of These in A couple of Weeks to do a full
Review and Here's Another Thing you wish you, can get but can't
This is the me Mix and as you can see There is very Little Actually no Bezel at the top of the Screen here A
Really Nice Smartphone
From Jammie What's interesting Is that they vibrate the case for a speaker because There is no Speaker Obviously because the Screen Is Taking up
All the Room and it
Also has an Ultrasonic Sensor when it Gets Closer to your ear
To turn the Screen off When you're Talking on the Phone so this has got a six Gigabytes of Ram it's got A
256 Gigabyte Flash Storage on There it, also has A
Snapdragon 821
Processor on Board Really Nice Android Phone
Again China Only on This One They sell this Phone as you're Seeing it for about five Hundred and seventy eight Dollars in China
And you know I'm A big Star Wars Fan and I found These little, Usb drives Here They're 16 Gigabytes each About
$15 I believe on Amazon right now But I really like the Detail on them They Really Did a nice Job
Making These Little Stand-up, usb sticks the
Usb Port Is the Head of The Creature so you Pop off the head and You get the
Usb stick and you Can Plug it Into your Computer
So we Found our Friends at?
Synology and I'm very excited to See Another Router from them so I used this Analogy Router Now at my House They've Been Now
Faster One Coming Full Disclosure They were A past Sponsor on the Channel but I really Use all this Stuff all the Time the other
Companies That I really like so the new Router here is faster so as A faster Processor has more Rims They've Gone From
256 Megabytes of Ram To 512 Megabytes
4X4 Aac Wireless on here, also so we've got two more Antennas than
We did Before so they've Beefed up everything Made it Faster so you Can run More
Applications on it it Can Work as a you know Time Machine Backup and Have some some minimal Nasty Features, also a pretty Well-Rounded
Product was Probably the Best Interface Among Routers I've Ever Seen out in The Marketplace I'll put a link Down to my review of the
Old Version so you can See Exactly how it Works Same interface on This One What They've Added here on the back Is
Some Link Aggregation
For The WAN Port so the first Lan Port can be Configured to be A WAN port and you Can Actually bring in your Internet
From Two Different Providers and Make it Faster By kind of Splitting the Load across Two Different
Providers Where you Can have it be a Failover got two
Usb Ports Even an Sd Card Slot all sorts of great Stuff and We'll Get one in Soon and do A full review
so
We look at A lot of Affordable NAS Devices if You want to go for the gus co and you got ten Grand Burning A
Hole in your Pocket here is A 24 Drive
Ssd nass from Synology Now what's cool about this is that
Well it is ten Thousand Dollars but What's cool About it Is that it runs with the
Synology Operating System That you'll get on A two Hundred Dollar Unit for example the Same exact Thing except this
One has a six Core xeon
Processor it's got all These Modular fans you Can pull out very Easy to Work on because it Is an Enterprise-Level
Device it is also very Smart about, we're Leveling These Ssds because as you know you Can only write to an
Ssd so Many Times so!
You Can know Which drive is Failing and swap it out and I'll then Move the load to the next drive so that it's like
Doing A good amount of wear Leveling as, you're going Through it so pretty cool
Stuff it's good to See Just the range of Products that a company like this Makes but
What You get in your Consumer Device Is very similar to what You get on the higher end Just
Different Scales of Cost and Processing Power Here's Another Interesting Thing this is called solar Paper and They are
Modular solar Panels for your Smartphone Are They Telling me That Two of These together Would Equal about what you Would get out of A?
IPhone Wall Charger so you know 5 volts 1 amp kind, of usb power and you can
Add up to 6 of them to bring in more Voltage of Course you need sunlight to Make it Work but
Kind of Anything you Can Attach These things Magnetically so what They're doing Now is selling the Panels Together
For 135 and Then Additional Panels Are 50 Dollars each so now
We're Taking a look at something Called the tack Room and this is A
Pair of Shoes I Guess That Works in Vr. And I'm Walking across This
Virtual Sand Right Now and it's got some tactile Feedback on it so i can Feel my
Feet kind of digging Into the sand as I move across here and I can
Also do some Motion Controls so this Works With Obviously These mobile Phone VR
Systems Here so you have this as an Option so you have some
Hand Controllers that you don't Typically have so I have to Punch These Guys and they, also have the Ability to Detect
Kicking As
Well if You do Feel some tactile Feedback that Changes as you Continue Walking here so right Now I'm in Water it's a little Squishy
And when i go to the wood it Feels a little Harder so pretty Interesting Product concept this is gonna be a little Pricey About
$1,000 for the kit but I think
We gonna See A lot more of Products like this to try to give you some Immersion in VR
So when you're Wandering Around you find Interesting things this is called the Dino Light it's a little
Microscope That Goes 10 to 230 x what I found Interesting Is that they have one for $99 that has that
Magnification
So you can Get A 640 by 480 Thing on your Screen and Up here you can See this Watch Turning even has some Depth
Of Field to it which Is pretty neat to see so they have more Expensive Ones I think This Particular one Is
629 it has a higher Resolution
And a different kind of Lens on it but for 99 Bucks you can get a Kid one of These things and They can get
Something that Is equivalent to a microscope that I had as a Kid that's Pretty neat and it Plugs right Into your Computer so that's
Gonna do it for our Coverage Release tower Dispatches From ces
2017 We've Got one more Video after This one Which Is our Interview With

Well as some of Their Hardware and Whatnot so stay tuned for that
I'm also going to do on the Wrap-Up and Overview of the equipment
We use to cover the show it all Fits in This Backpack believe it or not it Gets Heavier by the Minute but We were
Able to get all of this stuff that, We needed Into a single Backpack Which is what you need to?
Do when you're a small
Operation it was A very good Show for me I'Ve got to Network with A lot of Folks that I've only
Emailed With back and Forth so it's Really good as a small Operation to be present at things like this it's not Inexpensive to come
But Certain Things you need to do to really Make your mark and Make your networking Connections Which is what
We are doing here at the Show Inbetweening in Between Finding Stuff for you to See now it's Funny
About Finding the Interesting Stuff Is that We have to wade Through About 50 Or 60
Uninteresting Things to get to the interesting Stuff and as I mentioned at the Outset
the Scale of This This Show Is just Ridiculous
We're in The smallest hall
Which is across the street from all the other Stuff so we've Walked Through everything and This is about the best stuff that I could
