Next year’s edition of CES will be a virtual event as the world is still battling with the coronavirus pandemic. The multi-day event will begin on January 11 and run until January 14. Samsung is among the manufacturers that will unveil new products and it has been reported that the focus will be on new TVs.
Samsung’s own presentation is scheduled for January 12 and it will be held between 2:30 PM and 3:00 PM. The electronics giant is expected to announce new 8K OLED TVs and related devices. However, SamMobile reports that Samsung will not announce Quantum Dot OLED TVs as it has no plans to do so next year even though its display arm is the one making the panels.
We expect Samsung will also announce other exciting products aside from TVs. This year’s CES saw the Korean company announce a bunch of interesting products such as Ballie, a cute ball-like companion robot that can control smart appliances and provide personalized care; Samsung NEON which is a virtual avatar that can be customized to perform a variety of functions; and the Galaxy Chromebook.
We have already heard that the Galaxy Chromebook2 is in development, so there is a chance it will be announced at CES 2021. However, what we don’t expect to see is a smartphone, or specifically, the Galaxy S21 series. There are reports that the Galaxy S21 series will launch in mid-January but seeing as that is around the same time CES will be rounding off, it seems unlikely.
