After an entirely virtual edition in 2021, CES 2022 is set to be a hybrid event. While many startups will be present on site, most of the biggest and hotly anticipated brands will unveil their new products via online events. This year’s Consumer Electronics Show runs Jan 5 to 7 in Las Vegas, ending one day earlier due to Covid-19 restrictions.

The 2022 edition of CES is expected to see few in-person events and a host of online presentations. Originally, more than 2,200 exhibitors were expected to attend the show on site, but some of the biggest names in the business have already announced that they will not be attending in person.
