  • Lenovo’s rollable screens are versatile

CES is where serious tech meets the utterly bizarre. This year’s show is filled with gadgets that make you question reality. We spotted everything from robots to high-tech bathroom devices—definitely a mix to remember.

Robot Vacuums and Companion Bots

Dreame’s Cyber X ups the robot vacuum game, climbing stairs like a tiny tank. It uses treaded legs to navigate, making it easier to clean multiple floors without lugging a heavy appliance. Imagine no more hauling vacuums upstairs!

OlloBot is a quirky companion robot with a furry neck and a face that serves as a display. It evolves based on interactions and even has a removable memory module. So, if it breaks down, you can save its personality in a new body. That’s a lot of personality for a bot!

Boundless Screens and Health Gadgets

ASUS introduced a dual-screen laptop, the Zephyrus Duo, featuring two 16-inch displays. The detachable keyboard allows for unique setups, creating an epic portable gaming station.

Health tech is getting personal too. The Throne is a toilet-mounted computer that analyzes your bowel movements for medical insights. The Vivoo pad is another innovation, tracking hormone levels and fertility when scanned with a phone. It’s all about quantifying health in ways we never discussed at brunch.

  • Unique flexible displays from Lenovo
  • OhDoki’s powerful sex toy

Wacky Gadgets for Everyday Life

Lenovo’s Legion Pro Rollable and ThinkBook XD showcase innovative screens that expand when you need more space. While it might seem over the top, having a 23.8-inch screen for gaming is undeniably cool.

Other gadgets include OhDoki’s Handy 2 Pro, boasting long battery life and a Turbo mode. And, GE’s smart fridge with a built-in camera records contents, helping you avoid food waste. L’Oréal even entered the fray with an LED eye mask that promises sci-fi skincare.
