CES 2025 brought a wave of futuristic (and downright strange) innovations! From emotional support robots to air-purifying headphones, these 17 tech products redefine "cutting-edge." Discover what’s next in tech—and maybe have a laugh at the absurdity.

We were on the ground at CES in Las Vegas all week, cutting through the hype to find the products truly worth your money this year. From vacuum robots to karaoke machines, stretchable laptops, and so much more.

ZDNET editors scoured the show floor for a week and identified all of this year's best products - including those that will make the biggest impact on the future.

From ultra-bright TVs and AI translation earbuds, to stringless guitars and slick new soundbars, these are the products that won our Best of CES 2025 Awards

From hardcore hardware to welcome mainstream solutions to cool tech innovations for the home, CES 2025 delivered the good stuff.

We thought we would wrap up CES 2025 with a little light hearted best of video - showing some of our favourite and most interesting products from the event last week. We also wanted to put a shout out to Kyle Hansen - AKA BITWIT who returned from CES this year to find his house had burned down in the horrific California fires.
