7 exciting tech products launching in 2017
A list of all the gadgets you
should be thrilled about next year
The year is almost over, as
far as the tech horizon is concerned. Just about every major product that's
been announced is available to buy in time for the holidays. And with 2017
round the corner, we are expecting a bunch of cool new products. Here are some
of the most important gadgets likely to launch next year. This isn't a
comprehensive list though, and it doesn't account for the surprises we'll
likely see in 2017.
Samsung Galaxy S8
Samsung's first opportunity
to recover from the Galaxy Note 7 debacle will come with the launch of its new
flagship phone, the Galaxy S8, early next year. While not much is known about
the device, Samsung has announced that it will include a new digital assistant
powered by Viv, the artificial intelligence star tup Samsung bought earlier
this year. Viv was founded by the same people who built Siri.
A foldable Samsung phone?
Samsung has been working on
bendable displays for years, but 2017 could be the first time we actually see
it in a phone. The company recently filed a patent for such a device, fuelling
speculation that it's coming soon.
New iPads
Apple is expected to
refresh its iPad lineup in 2 017, according to Bloomberg. The new iPad models
will focus on the Pro line, with improvements to the Apple Pencil stylus and
new screen sizes.
iPhone 8
The next iPhone is going to
be a major refresh for the product, according to reports. The so-called iPhone
8 is said to have an all-glass design, an organic LED display for better
images, no home button, new screen sizes, and more. Apple is also working on
built-in augmented reality features, but that might not make it into the next
phone.
An update to the Google Pixel phone
Although there haven't been
any reports on what Google is planning for 2017's Pixel phone, the company's
hardware ambitions are getting started. It's reasonable to expect another great
Pixel phone from Google towards the end of 2017.
A smartwatch by Google
Google delayed its big
software update for Android Wear watches until 2017, and the company is
expected to launch its own watch as well, according to Android Police.The
circular smartwatches will be Google's opportunity to inject new interest into
its wearable computers, a category that's been dominated by the Apple Watch so
far.
New VR headsets that work with Windows 10
A new, free update coming
to Windows 10 early next year will let just about anyone use a VR headset with
their PC.The headsets will start at just $299 and come from a variety of
companies like Dell, Asus, and Lenovo. That's much cheaper than other headsets
.like the Oculus Rift, which starts at $599
