Computers, Laptops & Tablets

It’s nearly that time of year once again. Christmas tree decorations are coming down, New Year’s resolutions are being made and tech journalists are focused on Las Vegas. It’s time for CES 2016 and that means a parade of cool new gear to look forward to. CES isn’t all prototypes or stupidly expensive luxury items, although those do photograph well. Want proof? Here’s a selection of laptops and computer gear that made their debut at last year’s CES and then arrived at Best Buy in 2015.

Post-CES 2015, we have a lot to absorb about what we can do to our homes. Smarthome gadgets are coming out at a rapid pace, and with many manufacturers now working together to allow you run their devices on the same apps, it’s good to get in tune with just how you can turn your every day home into a smart one.

Read on to see what I thought of the Armadillo.
