in this video we take a look at ten of the best products that we saw at CES 2018 imagine a world where your smartphone powers your laptop now why would you need that well as our smartphones get more powerful fewer and fewer people need a larger computer but a full keyboard and a bigger screen can be helpful and that is why Razer with their project Linda is trying to merge the razor phone into one of their larger laptop concepts you simply slide the razor phone into a trackpad area of the customized razor blade stealth chassis and it automatically starts powering the laptop you almost get a one-to-one view of what you would be seeing on your Android phone but you can use the screen of the razor phone as the touchpad Razer plans on making the laptop display mirror the 120 Hertz quad HD display of the razor phone that way you can get high resolution playback of pretty much any piece of media and you'll be able to have a much larger canvas in order to do all of your work and play there are a few use cases here including using the larger apparatus as a way of finishing projects that you originally started on the razor phone or while the razor phone is docked it can play a video while you're getting that work done on the bigger screen sure it's just a concept for now but it's a really cool one speaking of concepts we finally have a tangible example of what an under glass fingerprint sensor would look like now we know that they were becoming this year but vivo started it off with a partnership with synaptics this wafer-thin optical sensor sits just between the display glass and the actual all LED panel and Peaks through the pixels in order to register your prints wake the screen and a small portion on the bottom of the phone will tell you where to land your fingerprint synaptics ensures that clear ID is just as secure as current sensors that you might find on plenty of other smartphones but it is marginally slower in practice if you're able to get past that slight delay you'll also realize that nothing about the phone needs to change in order for you to still have fingerprint security so for certain phones this might be the way that we can get all screen all the time by not having to cut the bottom in order to have a fingerprint sensor home button no matter what your opinions may be on smart watches it's good to see that Skagen is coming out with their first touchscreen enabled smart watch on top of all of their already great hybrid offerings the Scoggin falster runs Android wear but it also looks incredibly nice because of this minimalistic design that it's Skagen is known for now it is missing a few features that other Android wear vices bring to the table like a heart rate monitor built-in GPS and LTE connectivity but if you're looking for a classy smart walk shot also doesn't break the bank well the Scogin falster might be one of the prettiest and smooth uh smartwatches that we've seen so far VR is still running strong and this daydream VR headset is a standalone unit from Lenovo The Mirage Isola is powered by the Snapdragon 835 with four gigabytes of RAM and microSD expansion is available you still get the daydream controller and to seven hours of battery life and six degrees of freedom all without cables or even a smartphone it also has a much better weight distribution because it's not hindering itself on the weight of the smartphone so that it feels a lot more comfortable than plenty of other daydream headsets Lenovo is tentatively pricing it at under $400 and it will go on sale in quarter two of this year at first there was Google wallets and then there was Android pay and up until now they have been living side by side we're awarding Google pay a best of CES 2018 award because well Google is starting so finally understand mobile payments and also they're starting to understand proper naming conventions our next award goes to a potential competitor to the one plus 5t the honor view 10 sports a six inch full HD plus display has the Kiran a 90-70 processor six gigabytes of RAM and dual 12 and 20 megapixel cameras making it a beast on the spec sheet and at CES 2018 honor just announced that it's coming to the United States we were already impressed with the view 10 during our brief hands-on time and pricing availability might still be on the way but we expect this phone to launch at around five hundred dollars adding to an already good library of honor phones that are pretty affordable watch out for this phone in 2018 one of the biggest stories coming out of CES 2018 is the fact that Google assistant is appearing on so many different devices and that includes smart displays now these displays are supposed to be Amazon echo shows biggest competitors we've already seen a couple from Lenovo but this is one we're really excited about made by JBL there's an eighth inch of 720p display two front-facing 10 watt speakers a rear-facing passive radiator for even deeper bass along with support for 24-bit HD audio streaming the only unfortunate part about the JBL link view is that you're going to be able to buy one this summer we can't wait to get our hands on it and you can stay tuned for our review of it once we're able to use it during those summer months let's not forget a putting Google into your big TVs with Android TV you now have the Asus rogue PG 65 what is being considered a big format gaming display this is a 65 inch 4k g-sync Android TV with 120 Hertz refresh rates ultra-low latency and has a Nvidia shield built-in now the price will no doubt be high when it goes on sale but considering that it means you don't need a gaming monitor and then a smart TV also you put the boat together it might end up seeming kind of reasonable and of course you'll be able to play PC games on it as a monitor or just jump into the actual shield that's built in and be able to play any other games that you want from your couch rather than your desk there are a lot of
