While attending the 2025 Consumers Electronic Show (CES), I have determined three key trends that have run through the show:

The first is that AI was everywhere at the show. You could not find a vendor that did not mention AI in its booth displays or marketing material. AI was demonstrated in many ways, but the central theme manifested in the term “smart” applied to devices, apps, and services using AI in some form.

Echoing this smart focus was the second big theme of Health-related Wearables.

The third theme of the show was an emphasis on Smart Glasses.
