2018-01-13
CES 2018 is all wrapped up now and a lot of new things got announced almost everything has RGB lighting now and there was a huge push for voice assistance from almost everyone and keeping up with everything that got announced at CES this year can get a little overwhelming so here are my top picks for CES 2018 first up I've been calling it now for a few months but JBL finally announced a JBL extreme - and personally I'm very excited for the JBL extreme - because the original JBL extreme is just a great workhorse of a portable speaker design wise there's really no change the rubber end caps a little more stylized looks like the legs are a little beef tough and apparently the carrying strap now has a built in bottle opener which is just icing on the cake concerning tech specs - JBL extreme - now has JBL connect plus so we can connect to newer speakers like the JBL pulse 3 charge 3 flip 4 and the JBL boombox battery life is still at 15 hours but the JBL extreme 2 is now ipx7 rated which is an improvement over the original extreme could it's only water resistant but we'll have to see if the JBL extreme 2 floats and obviously the JBL extreme 2 is supposed to sound better things to upgraded drivers and brand new 3d based radiators honestly we'll have to see how the JBL extreme 2 compares to the extreme once I get it in-house and it should be going on sale to spring for 299 95 JBL also announced urge a bill clip 3 with improved battery life ipx7 certification and a slightly reworked design the clip 3 will also go on sale in spring for 59.99 staying on the topic of speakers sony also announced their sony XP 21 XB 31 and XP 41 and it's obvious Sony is coming after JBL with these new speakers they all feature a brand new design which I'm a really big fan of and they all have LED light strips built in there hasn't been a major battery life improvement over the current XP 20 XP 30 and XP 40 but these new speakers are more durable they all feature in IP 67 ratings so aside of just being waterproof like most of JBL's current speakers Sony speakers are both water and proof to some extent so on paper Stoney speakers are supposed to be more durable than JP Ellis and you can now connect up to 100 Sony XP 21s XP 31 and XP 41 speakers together but there was no mention if this feature will be coming to older XP speakers as well the sony xba-1 will be selling for $9.99 the XP 31 will be selling for 1 $49.99 and the XP 41 will be selling for to $49.99 this spring sony also announced their wireless earbuds made specifically for working out there called the wif SP 700 n and there in your earbuds that feature and ipx4 rating active noise cancellation a total of 9 hours of battery life withheld from the charging case and google assistant integration they'll be selling for 170 $9.99 and they should be available in the spring as well and speaking of voice assistance Sony will also be releasing a firmware update for Korean headphones which will add Google assistant integration just like the boss QC 35 series 2 this just means to Sony 1000 X and 2 and the Sony here on 2 will be that much better now it's no secret I really like the Sony 1000x m2 and the Sony here on - but Audio Technica also announced their a th a and C 700 BT quiet point headphones and for the record I'm going to be referring to them as the Audio Technica quite points because there's no way I'm gonna remember that name if you're somebody that's on a tighter budget then you might be interested in the quiet points cuz you'll be selling for $1.99 they're supposed to have a 25 hour battery life come in black or gray and I'm interested to see how their ANC technology compares to the a and C on the 1000x time to come this March next up or DJ eyes new gimbal systems and I'm personally very impressed by the DJI Osmo 2 because it clearly shows DJI is listening to their customers first up they slashed the price down from $200 to $130 which puts them into our competition with the GU smooth cue they made it lighter it's not supposed to overheat anymore and they improve the battery life from four and a half hours to a whopping 15 hours and you can charge your phone as well I'm really interested to see how the DJI Osmo 2 compares to the Zune now I'm personally really looking forward to to the Ronin as because it's the largest Eliezer that will hold my mirrorless camera the Ronin s is supposed to go on sale in the spring but pricing hasn't been announced but they have stated it should be below $1,000 whereas the DJI Osmo too should be going on sale on Apple site on January 23rd and everywhere else in February and finally there's the Razer Nomo speaker lineup now admittedly I currently don't have time to play computer games right now but I can appreciate their design and/or color changing base there are three models to choose from the base razor on most speakers which are just stereo speakers for $100 then there's no razor no more chroma which have the RGB base for one $49.99 and then there's a top-of-the-line Razer Nomo pro 4 for $49.99 although the first two are currently available for sale the Razer normal Pro still is enough for sale and what makes an impression is improved drivers the addition of tweeters and a downward firing subwoofer so yeah these are just some of the things that I'm currently really excited for from CES 2018 and I'm also going to try to do my best and get a hold of all of these products so I can review and compare them but comment down below what are you most excited for from CES 2018 razor razor Nomo chroma razor Nomo chroma razor no Mach room razor Nomo chroma okay oh my god that is hard to say hey if you enjoyed the video please like and subscribe it helps out more than you realize for more product reviews and deal alerts check out Jim Carrey that net if you want us to put the channel pick up a shirt and I'll catch you next time
