We visited CES 2014 last week and took these photos of incredible new hardware and other electronic products. If we had to pick one theme that stood out from all the others, it would have to be 4K UltraHD displays.

Highlights of the show included a plethora of 4K UltraHD TVs and computer monitors of all sizes (curved displays look to also be a growing trend), smart watches, smart tablets, fancy new cars with power speaker systems, and a lot of trinket booths from various new companies.

Have a look!

At the CES 2014, Samsung revealed the first ever “bendable TV.” Major TV brands such as LG, Panasonic, Toshiba, Sony, and Sharp also revealed their newest ultra high definition televisions. 4K TVs were also introduced in every major manufacturer’s lineup, as well as a few non-TV products, such as the Lenovo ThinkVision 28 monitor that runs Android KitKat. Also at CES 2014, more companies are adding smart capabilities into TVs; Roku partnered with Hisense and TCL to construct six TVs with Roku’s Smart TV platform built in, which requires no box.

The most impressible TV at CES 2014 was by far a “bendable TV” by Samsung. When you press a button on the remote control, small servos behind the screen will begin to move, causing the edges of the screen to form a curved shape. When you press another button, the process goes backwards, and the screen becomes similar to a flat-screen HDTV. At first Samsung stated that this TV was just a concept, but now it is a reality, as this “bendable TV” will begin to ship this year. The Demo TV displayed at CES was an 85-inch LED LCD with 4K resolution. When the TV is curved, it would match the radius of Samsung’s nonbendable curves sets.

LG made it’s mark at CES as well by introducing 12 models of 4K televisions for 2014; three of these models include a 105-inch LCD and two curved OLED series: EC9700 and EC9800. These two curved and the three LCD series: the UB9800, UB9500, and the UB8500, make the largest offerings of Ultra HDs ever displayed. LG said that all of their TVs will have the latest connections, as well as Smart TV advancements. The 105-inch 105UC9 is a 21:9 TV, similar to the Vizio CinemaWide XVT3D580CM from 2012. This TV will also enable side-by-side viewing on 16:9 content; this will in turn eliminate the vertical black bars.

Panasonic first made a name for itself by making plasma TVs, but now has stopped the production of plasma TVs. Due to financial difficulty, Panasonic made it’s last plasma TV in December. Panasonic was not that impressive with it’s TV lineup, showing only one 4K TV, the AX800U series. Panasonic was more impressive with it’s latest Smart TV interface design. Though the “My Button” on the remote control, the TV can learn individual or family viewing preferences with the aid of a cough or a TiVo thumbs-up. The TV will then display these preferences in the “My Stream” screen; this screen shows a single channel of content from several sources personalized for a single individual. The rest of the TVs are pretty much 1080p TVs with touch pad remotes.

Mostly all of the Sony TVs featured a 4K resolution; one of the models was an entry-level series that aimed at a “broader base of consumers.” Go to this link to see the full line of TV models: http://ces.cnet.com/8301-35303_1-57616738/sony-tvs-at-ces-2014-tripling-down-on-4k/

Sharp was extremely impressive at CES 2014, unveiling their new line of Aquos TVs. Sharp President John Herrington referred to the Aquos 4K and the Aquos Q as “gamer changers.” The Aquos Quattron Plus features 10 million more pixels than full HD. Sharp further started that the Aquos Quattron Plus is meant to be a bridge between a 1080p and a 4K TV. The Plus is also the highest resolution full HD TV.

Lenovo showed off a ThinkVision 28 4K display monitor that has a 3,840×2, 160-pixel resolution, and also doubles as an Android all-in-one device. With a price tag of $1,199 and up, the monitor has a variety of ports, including DisplayPort, Ethernet, and three HDMI ports. This monitor also features two 5-watt speakers, two noise-canceling microphones, and a front facing 2-megapixel camera.

At CES 2014, Roku announced their TV platform; they will partner with Hisense and TCL to produce six models this coming fall. Three models will come from each company in sizes from 32 to 55 inches. Essentially, The Roku TV is a standard HDTV with a Roku box built in, similar to Smart TV features seen in many manufacturers; the only difference is that the Roku TV will run on Roku’s robust software. This software will gives users access to over 1,000 channels; it will also have a cross platform search for movies and TV shows, and a simple interface. Roku has the best streaming software, which made them earn the CNET’s Editors’ Choice Award over the competitors.

During 2013, Microsoft and Sony debuted their new consoles, but now Valve looks to make their new gaming device a steep competition in the gaming scene. After Valve became most popular for the digital distribution of PC games and apps through its online Steam store, they decided to jump into gaming hardware with the creation of the Steambox platform. Valve introduced this platform in 2013; this platform combines console-like hardware that runs PC games based on Steam. The platform also works with a Valve-designed custom controller. At the CES 2014, Valve announced that it will partner with PC makers that will make and sell the Steambox. Companies such as Dell, Maingear, Falcon Northwest, and Origin PC actually showed some early prototypes of the Steambox.

From PCMag.com: It’s that time again. Anyone who has attended a major tech trade show knows that many booths house not only gadgets but attractive women, commonly known as “booth babes.”

As The Wire noted in its history of booth babes last year, the concept dates back to the 1960s at CES, though at the time they were known as the more PC “CES Guides.” The moniker “booth babes” appears to have arrived in the mid-80s (shocking) and has persisted to this day, for better or worse.

To be fair, while some of the ladies manning the CES booths sport skimpy outfits, it’s not exactly scandalous these days. For that, you might want to return to Vegas next week for the AVN Adult Entertainment Expo. When AVN used to coincide with CES, we checked it out (for work, of course) and saw some … things.

Whatever. You’re not even reading this anymore, are you? That’s right. Just clicky clicky the pretty pictures.

At the CES 2014, many companies unveiled their newest technology gadgets, and Razor was one of those companies. Razor introduced The Nabu, a combination of a smartwatch and a fitness band.

The Nabu is somewhat similar to devices like the Fitbit Force and the Nike Fuelband ; it tracks steps taken and calories burned. The Nabu does do other things as well that most other devices don’t do; it receives notifications from iOS and Android phones, such as text messages, phone calls, and much more.

Razor will initially launch a developer-only edition for $49, followed by a consumer version for a little bit higher, according to Razor’s public relations.
