CES 2022 to be held in Las Vegas as an in-person event
The COVID-19 pandemic not only made people practicing social distancing at home but also turned many big technological events into boring daily soaps, as we all watched them while staying at home via digital media.
For example, Samsung’s Galaxy Unpacked events unveiled exciting goodies including the current flagship S21 devices, the latest Galaxy A series offerings, and the recent Galaxy Books launch, all we just addressed through YouTube or connected apps.
Apart from Samsung events, CES 2021 (Consumer Electronics Show) which was one of the biggest events in the tech industry also felt like a “saltless dish” as it also held virtually and no one got a chance to witness the best of tech for the previous year.
CES 2022 will be held as an in-person event
A piece of good news has been surfacing around the corners that tells about the next CES event heading back to its original venue in Las Vegas and will be held as an in-person event in January 2022. Moreover, the gathering will take place from January 5 to January 8, with media roundups between January 3 to January 4.
Meanwhile, before the COVID-19 crisis that popped out in late 2019 and became a pandemic in 2020, CES (2020) was the last major tech event that took place in person. Other events including the 2020 MWC (Mobile World Congress) had also somehow kind of canceled or we can say held virtually.
But as we mentioned above, the next consumer electronic show will be a real event, therefore 1,000 companies including Samsung, LG, Google, Qualcomm, Sony, and many more are set to showcase their best tech offerings.
In this context, Gary Shapiro, the association’s president, and CEO said, “We’re thrilled to return to Las Vegas — home to CES for more than 40 years — and look forward to seeing many new and returning faces,” said in a release. “Hundreds of executives have told us how much they need CES to meet new and existing customers, find partners, reach media and discover innovation.”
Apart from this, CES 2022 attendees will also be a part of the event but digitally. However, more solid plans about the event will depend on the Coronavirus situation and safety norms from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
What to expect from Samsung in the next CES event?
Well, If we look at the previous event Samsung introduced a bunch of technologies including 5G mmWave communication system, The Frame TV, Bespoke range of home appliances, and more. This implies the next CES event will also focus on these products but in a more advanced way as the tech always changes with time.
However, some rumors are giving an indication about the rollable Galaxy device as it is being one of the most anticipating gadgets from the company that needs to be unveiled, and for that CES 2022 is the best platform to do so.
Besides, this information is just based on rumors and speculations and the real catch will only be witnessed in CES 2022 that is set to happen with a boom for tech enthusiasts.
