CES (the Consumer Electronics Show) is always an exciting way to kick off the year. The massive annual tech show in Las Vegas showcases the latest and greatest products from big and small brands around the world. From the practical to the quirky, CES 2025 has it all. As always, we've been exploring the show floors to discover the most innovative new gadgets that you'll want to get your hands on this year. From bizarre to wonderful, these are the standout products we've recognized as the Best in Show at CES 2025 – from robotic vacuum cleaners with grabbing arms to luxury smart rings made of solid gold. Roborock Saros Z70 Emma Rowley / Foundry The Saros Z70 stole the show at CES with its eye-catching display. This robot vacuum features a robotic arm that extends from its top compartment to pick up small items from your floor. It's the first robot vacuum that can both clean and tidy up. During the demo, the robot was able to locate and pick up a thick glove, depositing it into a nearby basket. The robotic arm, known as the OmniGrip 1.0, can lift objects weighing up to 300g and move in five different directions from its rotating base. Surprisingly, the robotic arm doesn't add bulk to the machine; when folded into its compartment, the robot stands at a compact 7.98cm tall. Ultrahuman Rare Emma Rowley / Foundry Wearable technology isn't always known for its fashion-forward designs, but Ultrahuman is changing that with a luxury smart ring crafted from real gold (or platinum for those who prefer). Unlike the standard titanium or tungsten carbide coatings, the Ultrahuman Rare ring exudes luxury. Available in three shades – Dune (gold), Desert Rose (rose gold), and Desert Snow (platinum) – the gold used in the rings is sourced from the London Bullion Market and hallmarked for quality assurance. The rings feature a subtly textured design that sets them apart from competitors. What's exciting is the shift towards smart wearables moving beyond their traditional sporty and functional designs. While we couldn't test the weight or comfort of the Rare models, priced between £1,500-£1,800 (approximately $2,000 in the US), they were securely displayed in their cases during the unveiling at CES. Halliday smart glasses These sleek and lightweight spectacles are actually smart glasses in disguise. Embedded within the frame is a small module that projects a green text display in the top right of your field of vision, providing access to notes, phone notifications, real-time language translation, and soon, an AI virtual assistant. Paired with a smart ring that functions as a controller, you can scroll and make adjustments without touching the glasses themselves. What sets these smart glasses apart is the absence of AR lenses, allowing for a comfortable fit with your regular prescription. Without a doubt, these are the most wearable smart glasses on the market and a true competitor to the Ray-Ban Meta. TCL Nxtpaper 11 Plus Anyron Copeman / Foundry TCL has unveiled the Nxtpaper 4.0, featuring its color-shifting screen technology on the new Nxtpaper 11 Plus, an 11-inch tablet. Similar to the previous version found on the Nxtpaper 14, this technology allows you to switch between full color, color E-Ink, and monochrome E-Ink modes effortlessly. The Nxtpaper 4.0 offers enhanced image clarity, color accuracy, and full sRGB gamut coverage. It also introduces new AI-powered Smart Eye Comfort and Personalized Eye Comfort modes for reduced eye strain. Additionally, the Nxtpaper 14 Plus boasts the first suite of AI features on any tablet, including writing assist tools, smart voice recording, real-time translation, subtitling, and Circle to Search functionality. The tablet features a 2.2K panel with a 120Hz refresh rate, T-Pen stylus support, and is powered by MediaTek's Helio G99 chipset. Dreame X50 Ultra Emma Rowley / Foundry The standout feature of Dreame's new X50 Ultra is its 'ProLeap' technology, allowing it to climb steps. With robotic legs that extend to angle the body upwards, it can navigate steps up to 4.2cm high or combined steps up to 6cm. Combined with VersaLift technology that retracts the navigation tower to clean under lower furniture, the X50 Ultra can reach areas that other robots can't. Early testing shows it to be an impressive machine. Circular Ring 2
