- It's your CES 2018 wrap up.
Plus, I'm giving away $100 in Amazon's gift card,
just to thank you for watching.
I don't know if I should smile or cry.
Hi, I'm the YouTube deal guy, Matt Granite.
Yep, the world's largest consumer electronic show
has come to a close in Las Vegas.
People cleaning up, wrapping things up behind me.
You're gonna see a lot of ladders.
People probably concerned why I'm still in the building.
But as this come to a close, I wanna take a look
at the big tech trends, the things that we saw,
and the things that will benefit you
this year and moving forward.
And if you've never seen me before,
I do huge tech unboxings and deals,
and I give all my favorite items away for subscribers.
And at the end of this video, I'm giving away
$100 in Amazon.com gift card just because you guys
have been amazing with me this weekend.
I wanna spend a little bit more of my money
to say thank you.
So you're gonna spend your money on something from CES,
what can you expect this year?
The big trends we saw were tied not just
to virtual reality but to augmented reality.
That means brands like Samsung were really taking charge
on new ways to immerse you in an environment
that is completely new and completely different.
We also saw this focus tied to to health
and I featured a couple of headsets
that actually helped reduce migraines
while helping you sleep better
and just something a little bit different than gaming.
Go big or go home, that was the tech trend
tied to televisions this year.
8K is not even as big as they were last year
but just larger ways to share and showcase your imagery
from the most beautiful curved displays
to ways to actually integrate curved televisions
into your home or other ways to present media
in businesses, in retail, and of course, with new prices
making them a lot more accessible.
Accessibility, also a huge thing
on consumer electronic show this year.
It's gone beyond Amazon Alexa,
and all of the Google-enabled home products.
Your ability to just buy anything
and integrate it where you can control
your door locks, your thermostat.
Just say, help, I need the police,
and have a device respond in your home
to get you that help you need.
Another major component of CES 2018.
We saw talking cars, we saw talking robots,
and we saw smart vehicles.
But it's no longer just that vehicle
from the future, that self-driving car
that you hope to own one day.
Crowdsourcing projects that have brought
accessible smart bus stops and cars and vehicles
to help the elderly and those with accessibility issues,
not only a reality this year,
and something you're going to see very soon.
From drones, to huge improvements,
and all sorts of things that fly through the air,
not just for entertainment but now to document
very specific video and imagery capture,
a huge component at CES 2018.
The interesting thing, though,
with a lot of technology becoming smaller,
from audio to headphones to projectors,
televisions going way bigger than ever before,
and drones, and a lot of the unmanned aircraft
now getting bigger and bigger and bigger
which means you need to register a lot more
with the FAA even if you're just flying for fun.
But also the cameras and a lot of the wave
this tech toys operate, bigger, less expensive,
and also more accessible than ever before.
On the smartphone front, obviously not a whole lot
happening with iOS at CES,
but we did see some huge developments from Android
and now some of those overseas smartphone brands
working harder to become a household name.
Another major trend we saw at CES this year.
So as things come to a close and wrap up,
just now that this is just the beginning
of a lot of the deals we're gonna see later on.
A lot of brands reduce their prices
to try and keep people talking about them
long after the consumer electronic show comes to a close.
It's gonna be my job to unbox those items.
Bring you the deals as they happen.
And by the way, for all of you watching.
What do you want to save money on this year, tech-wise?
Maybe it's something you saw at CES,
or maybe it's something you saw elsewhere.
