Has CES Become Irrelevant?
« on: January 06, 2020, 03:40:59 PM »
CES is going on right now, but it seems that every year there are fewer big announcements there. In part because larger companies have their own 'Launch' days which they use to launch products (a la Apple and Google) so they get more press, and with the advent of the Internet, Blogs and Twitter, you don't need a giant press conference to launch stuff every year.

I've also heard that although a lot of companies are still coming to CES to conduct meetings with vendors, partners, and buyers, they are more and more not buying a booth, but giving private demos in ballrooms in their hotels.

I know that it's demise has been predicted a few times before - but does anyone think that CES is on its last legs?
