TechRadar CES 2013

With all the announcements that have come out of Las Vegas thus far, it's hard to believe this is only Day 2 of the Consumer Electronics Show (CES). Yet here we are, just halfway through the annual tech convention in Sin City. We've been posting roundups of some of the highlights covered by our sister site, TechRadar, which focuses more on the consumer electronics side of the equation (think tablets and TVs rather than graphics cards and liquid cooling). The folks at TechRadar are every bit as passionate about electronics and technology as we are, so show them some love, and tell 'em Maximum PC sent you.

Today brings a whole new round of announcements, from a 60-inch glasses free 3D Ultra HD TV from Philips to a flexible OLED phone of the future, and more. Hit the jump for more highlights.

Boutique system builder iBuyPower introduced its new Revolt PC at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas, which at a glance looks like the lovechild of an Xbox 360 console and small form factor (SFF) gaming PC. That's not too far off from what it really is. Sporting a "radically new overall design," the Revolt is shaped like a console but is all PC on the inside, from its Intel Core processor foundation to its optional factory overclock.

Instead, Razer announced at this year's CES that Project Fiona is now the Razer Edge, which it intends to put into production and retail distribution in the coming months.

The Series 7 Chronos from Samsung is an interesting blend of technologies.

Samsung seems to have its hands in a little bit of everything these days, from televisions and cameras, to smartphones and even home appliances, such as refrigerators. Since this isn't Maximum Washing Machine or Maximum Microwave, so stopped by Samsung's setup to see what PCs it had on display at the Consumer Electronics Show.

Munitio makes the only 'bullet' we'd ever want to take to the head.

Usually when there's a bullet plugged into someone's ear, they're not getting up, at least not until they respawn. A company called Munitio, however, has built a pair of bullet-shaped earphones that aren't lethal. If you're familiar with the company, you know the referenced earphones as the Nines, which are shaped like tactical 9mm bullets. Munitio's relaunching the Nines with added features for mobile devices, and the company also shared a brand new product with us at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES).
