As the world’s largest consumer technology trade show lands in Las Vegas this week, the Internet has been rife with rumors about — and early glimpses into — new technology that might soon be in your pocket.
CES expects to bring more than 3,000 exhibitors to show off their latest cutting-edge products.
Here’s a look at some of the best buzz that’s been sweeping across the web:
Lenovo Intel-powered smartwatches
The computer company reportedly wants to release two new smartwatches powered by Intel. The watches may include 64-bit Atom processors and an LTE-advanced modem chip. According to CNET.com, the new designs follow two previous Lenovo phones equipped with Intel processors.
Samsung Galaxy S6
There’s been a lot of mystery surrounding Samsung’s newest Android smarthphone. While many unverified photos have surfaced relating to the new Galaxy S6, technical specs have been scarce. The rumor mill says the world will know more after CES.
Nikon D5500 Camera
Based on Nikon’s most popular consumer camera, the D5300, the Nikon D5500 may may come equipped with an updated sensor. The D5300 sensor is considered cutting edge, coming in at 28 megapixels. Rumors say the new camera’s video display will come with touch control.
Garmin: Epix Smartwatch
Photos and specs of this sweet new smartwatch have already hit the web, and it looks like a hit for outdoor junkies. The Epix is a GPS mapping watch for backpackers in need of backcountry navigation. The watch features a 1.4-inch color touchscreen and 8GB of space for uploading area maps. The current price floating around is $549.
Motorola Moto360
The popular phone- and watchmaker may unveil a version of the Moto 360 with a metal band, as well as other upgrades, like an updated display and battery. AndroidPit.com casts doubt on the chance that the company will release an all new, second-generation smartwatch, considering how long it took Motorla to release the original Moto360.
