The Consumer Electronics Show (CES) 2025 is set to officially launch on January 7 in Las Vegas, signaling the start of another dynamic year for the consumer electronics and automotive industries. As one of the most anticipated global tech events, CES annually gathers over 140,000 attendees, from startups to industry leaders. For those who wish to stay updated without traveling, many of the major press events will be livestreamed, offering a front-row seat to groundbreaking announcements.
While the show runs from January 7 to January 10, the most critical news typically unfolds during the pre-event “Press Day,” scheduled for January 6. Some of the world’s biggest tech players—Nvidia, Samsung, AMD, Toyota, and Sony—are gearing up to unveil their latest advancements and visions for the future.
AMD: Aiming to Compete in the AI Revolution
Scheduled for January 6 at 11 a.m. PT/2 p.m. ET, AMD is expected to reveal its response to Nvidia’s dominance in the AI and GPU markets. With Nvidia commanding significant attention due to its pivotal role in AI development, AMD is under pressure to deliver compelling innovations. Speculations suggest the debut of AMD’s next-generation GPUs, potentially branded as the RX 8000 or RX 9000 series, as part of their RDNA 4 lineup. These advancements could signal AMD’s strategy to capture market share in the ever-competitive semiconductor landscape.
Toyota: Innovating Automotive Technology
At 4 p.m. PT/7 p.m. ET on the same day, Toyota is set to present its vision for the future of mobility. While specific details remain under wraps, the automaker is expected to highlight its advancements in sustainable vehicles and autonomous technology. Toyota’s CES announcements often reflect its long-term strategies for reshaping transportation.
Samsung: AI for All
Samsung’s presentation, commencing at 5 p.m. PT/8 p.m. ET, continues its tradition of showcasing innovations in home appliances and visual technologies rather than its flagship consumer electronics. This year’s theme, “AI for All: Everyday, Everywhere,” suggests a focus on integrating artificial intelligence into everyday products. While announcements about futuristic consumer robots may intrigue audiences, they are unlikely to reach production anytime soon. The highlight for many will likely be the unveiling of cutting-edge television and appliance technologies.
Nvidia: Leading the Charge in AI
Concluding Press Day at 6:30 p.m. PT/9:30 p.m. ET, Nvidia is poised to dominate the spotlight. With a staggering $3.4 trillion market cap, Nvidia’s prominence in the AI boom is unparalleled. CEO Jensen Huang will once again deliver his keynote, unveiling Nvidia’s roadmap for AI and hardware innovation. Speculation surrounds the potential announcement of the RTX 5000 series, which could set a new benchmark for performance in gaming and professional computing. Nvidia’s influence extends far beyond hardware, with partnerships across industries further cementing its leadership in technology.
