00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:06,319
this video is about the biggest trends at ces 2019 but before we jump into that

2
00:00:04,720 --> 00:00:10,000
we've got to cover one big announcement that we haven't actually gotten to yet

3
00:00:08,320 --> 00:00:13,000
AMD held their press conference yesterday

4
00:00:17,199 --> 00:00:22,720
AMD held their press conference yesterday and after dilly dallying

5
00:00:20,480 --> 00:00:27,680
around with some stuff about second gen ryzen mobile processors AMD powered

6
00:00:25,279 --> 00:00:33,760
chromebooks and an appearance by xbox's phil spencer to talk about the power of

7
00:00:30,800 --> 00:00:37,520
friendship truly fantastic now i have to say guys

8
00:00:35,120 --> 00:00:40,399
phil is a legend in the gaming industry is phil a legend

9
00:00:41,680 --> 00:00:48,160
AMD finally announced their new high-end flagship graphics card the Radeon 7 i

10
00:00:46,640 --> 00:00:51,760
guess because it's vega 2 so it's a v and then two

11
00:00:50,719 --> 00:00:58,320
eyes it's roman numerals it's the first desktop GPU built on a 7 nanometer

12
00:00:55,920 --> 00:01:03,199
process with 60 compute units 16 gigabytes of high bandwidth memory and

13
00:01:00,399 --> 00:01:09,040
AMD claims it's around 30 percent more powerful than the rx vega 64 in content

14
00:01:05,840 --> 00:01:11,920
creation and gaming so according to dr

15
00:01:09,040 --> 00:01:18,320
lisa sue that means it's on par with or better than NVIDIA's rtx 2080 especially

16
00:01:15,119 --> 00:01:20,159
using vulcan the incredibly popular

17
00:01:18,320 --> 00:01:24,000
graphics API that was sarcasm but i'm not the only

18
00:01:22,159 --> 00:01:29,439
one sassing the card when asked about what he thinks about the Radeon 7 NVIDIA

19
00:01:26,320 --> 00:01:31,200
ceo jensen huang told gizmodo it look it

20
00:01:29,439 --> 00:01:35,280
looks dumb it looks lousy ah

21
00:01:33,280 --> 00:01:39,920
that's dumb okay what he actually said was the launch was underwhelming and it

22
00:01:37,200 --> 00:01:45,759
lacks ray tracing in dlss and that in real benchmarks the rtx 2080 will crush

23
00:01:43,119 --> 00:01:48,880
it when asked to respond to jensen lisa took the high ground saying jensen

24
00:01:47,520 --> 00:01:54,320
hasn't actually seen the card and that she's not going to go tit for tat with

25
00:01:51,280 --> 00:01:55,920
insults i mean she is a doctor she

26
00:01:54,320 --> 00:02:00,399
doesn't walk around wearing leather jackets looking for a bar fight now

27
00:01:57,920 --> 00:02:06,079
Radeon 7 is going to launch in february for 6.99 the same price as the rtx 2080.

28
00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:09,440
so let's hope it is actually competitive all right so with that out of the way

29
00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:13,840
let's talk about the trends this year at ces the show might make you think of

30
00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:20,000
laptops and phones and cameras but one of the biggest trends this year was

31
00:02:15,599 --> 00:02:22,400
actually cars flying cars walking cars

32
00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:26,800
self-driving cars even beyond the major players like waymo uber and tesla almost

33
00:02:24,959 --> 00:02:30,720
every major tech company now has some sort of stake in autonomous driving

34
00:02:28,879 --> 00:02:34,640
NVIDIA and mercedes have partnered to create a computer that defines the

35
00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:39,200
future of autonomous vehicles while microsoft is helping lg work on ai for

36
00:02:37,280 --> 00:02:43,040
its self-driving and infotainment systems for cars toyota talked about

37
00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:47,440
their fully autonomous chauffeur technology but said they're focusing on

38
00:02:44,879 --> 00:02:51,120
their semi-autonomous guardian system which will allow a car to take control

39
00:02:48,959 --> 00:02:56,319
from its driver in order to avoid accidents which

40
00:02:52,879 --> 00:02:57,840
strangely sounds kind of terrifying

41
00:02:56,319 --> 00:03:01,840
if only because i either want to just accept that the car is driving or i'm

42
00:02:59,920 --> 00:03:05,680
driving who's driving who's unforced in other car news bose

43
00:03:04,159 --> 00:03:09,920

45
00:03:12,159 --> 00:03:19,120
the cradle walking car and walmart said they'll be testing self-driving grocery

46
00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:23,120

47
00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:26,400
robot car revolution happens they'll be on the front lines the next big trend

48
00:03:24,879 --> 00:03:32,080
we're talking about is digital assistance yep every product at this

49

51
00:03:38,799 --> 00:03:45,120
system for easily adding support to devices as simple as an e-ink display or

52
00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:50,159
a single button google assistant can be found in the nude lenovo smart clock

53
00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:56,959
sort of an echo spot type device dishes hopper tv receivers and even the anchor

54
00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:59,360
rowev bolt a car charger

55
00:03:56,959 --> 00:04:02,560
really google assistant itself also got some new features in addition to being

56
00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:07,040
added to maps so now you can tell your usb car charger to check into your

57
00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:10,959
flight and it will do it it doesn't care as we talked about in an

58
00:04:08,799 --> 00:04:14,239
earlier episode samsung added bixby to basically every product they make but

59
00:04:12,720 --> 00:04:18,079
alexa is showing up in more and more places as well lenovo announced the

60
00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:22,240
smart tab an Android tablet that essentially turns into an echo show when

61
00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:25,840
plugged into a speaker dock alexa also made her way into a bike

62
00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:32,400

thermaltake alexa pawn some noobs for me now i can't tell

64
00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:39,600
whether this is going to usher in a bright future or a grim dystopia where

65
00:04:38,240 --> 00:04:44,000
everyone's going to be asking for the weather forecast from their table lamp

66
00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:47,840
but regardless it's time for quick bits brought to you by seasonic who's

loving parent bringing you a bowl of hot soup on a rainy day when you've got the

sniffles if you're looking for a power supply for your next builder upgrade

choose seasonic click the link in the description below for more info yeah

76
00:05:18,479 --> 00:05:23,360
well i guess it's time for quick bits now another huge trend this year has

77
00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:28,000
been robots whether they be somewhat useful models like the butler type

78
00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:32,479
ubtech walker or the food delivery type like the segway lumo or robots that

79
00:05:30,639 --> 00:05:38,720
aren't intended for any use at all like the love hot a confusingly cute baby pet

80
00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:44,320
thing in fact the robot's maker groovex seems to intentionally show that the

81
00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:46,000
lavat is clumsy and inept but it's cute

82
00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:50,720
dennis loves them yeah yeah i do i know

83
00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:54,479
there were some cool robots the misty two is meant more as a platform for

84
00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:58,080
programming than a fully formed product and the temi can follow you around

85
00:05:56,320 --> 00:06:00,880
performing digital actions from voice commands but

86
00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:08,240
i mean at the end of the day it's a tablet on wheels so these bots are cool

87
00:06:03,919 --> 00:06:08,240
but we're still waiting for c-3po

88
00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:16,880
that sounds like an oscar-nominated film hey you like tvs and or large monitors

89
00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:19,199
the size of tvs well there were lots lg

90
00:06:16,880 --> 00:06:25,120
and samsung both showed off enormous 8k OLED displays while panasonic debuted

91
00:06:21,919 --> 00:06:29,120
the world's first OLED 4k tv with dolby

92
00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:31,280
vision HDR 10 plus and hlg for super

93
00:06:29,120 --> 00:06:36,479
wide dynamic range there are huge screens everywhere at the show including

94
00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:40,479
lg's giant OLED falls display that briefly made me believe i was barreling

95
00:06:38,880 --> 00:06:44,960
through the void of space but giant monitors also showed up with alienware's

96
00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:49,919
55-inch OLED gaming tv which Linus took a look at and the hp omen imperium

97
00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:53,680
65-inch monitor speaking of gaming there were a lot of treats this year for pc

98
00:06:51,759 --> 00:06:57,440
gamers NVIDIA launched the mobile versions of their rtx graphics cards

99
00:06:55,680 --> 00:07:01,840
which can now be found in basically every new gaming laptop announced and we

100
00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:08,160
got the debut of the world's first 240 hertz laptops in the hp omen 15 ASUS

101
00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:10,319
strix scar 2 and the alienware m15 and

102
00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:14,880
that last one will also have a 4k OLED version alienware also showed off their

103
00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:19,520
area 51m gaming laptop which can have a number of components swapped out and

104
00:07:16,479 --> 00:07:21,680
replaced including the CPU and GPU if

105
00:07:19,520 --> 00:07:25,440
you want to do that razer had a particularly interesting reveal in their

106
00:07:23,360 --> 00:07:30,560
hypersense system which adds haptic feedback to the keyboard mouse headset

107
00:07:27,759 --> 00:07:35,520
and even your chair for a sort of haptic 3d experience also of course we got the

108
00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:41,840
launch of the rtx 2060 and the Radeon 7 but we already talked about that

109
00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:44,400
and last but not least 5g that ethereal

110
00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:49,440
abstract concept was as much of a buzzword as ever and

111
00:07:47,039 --> 00:07:54,319
not much else it seems like everyone really wants to get to 5g like now

112
00:07:52,479 --> 00:07:59,199
verizon launched a very limited network in a few u.s cities that requires a hot

113
00:07:56,319 --> 00:08:03,520
spot to use while at t just skipped that whole thing and just started claiming 4g

114
00:08:01,599 --> 00:08:09,280
was 5g because why not what's the difference samsung had a 5g smartphone

115
00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:12,800
in a case at their booth that didn't do anything

116
00:08:10,720 --> 00:08:16,720
qualcomm and Intel probably had the most convincing demos using 5g to stream

117
00:08:14,879 --> 00:08:22,000
video between devices but it's hard to get hyped about something that has so

118
00:08:18,800 --> 00:08:24,000
much hype around it and has yet to truly

119
00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:28,240
make it into the real world but hopefully it will so that's some of

120
00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:33,360
the trends this year at ces guys thanks for watching but this video is over

121
00:08:31,280 --> 00:08:36,640
you can keep watching but not much is going to happen i can't i can't promise

122
00:08:35,039 --> 00:08:40,080
anything's going to happen what you can do is subscribe to techlink because

123
00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:44,800
