Last year, about 115000 footfalls were observed at CES, with attendees from over 57 countries and 279 tier one media members pouring in from over the globe. CES is that big, with exhibitors ranging from AI/robotics to Gaming, smart homes to smart cities, and sustainability and lifestyle to accessibility. What wearables to expect in CES 2024 is what most Tech geeks around the world are anticipating, along with some big launches and announcements.
More than 14k attendees listed digital health as one of their top business interests at the CES 2023. With stats like this, CES definitely holds the potential to come up with announcements concerning wearables. It’s just a couple of weeks back when Evie Ring was launched and was invited to showcase the device at CES 2024, with rumors that Samsung and Oura are also going to say something regarding their smart rings, the wearables industry is more restless than ever.
What users are expecting, what experts are predicting, and what exactly companies will come up with does not seem like matching anywhere even nearer to each other. Anyways, it’s just a matter of a few days now, and things will start unfolding on 9th January 2024, and every rumor, speculation, and prediction will perish, and only some actual news will prevail. Our expert team, along with the researchers, has pulled out some of the most likely wearables to expect in 2024, relying on the previous data and nature of events that occurred in earlier CES events.
Wearables To Expect at CES 2024
Whether a company is invited or it gets listed by itself, the competition in both scenarios will be tough. No any wearables device manufacturers can afford to miss any detail or insights from other contenders, it’s CES and no one can let it go like this only, however there are some companies like Apple, Samsung and many others that save the big announcements for their own events only, and when Samsung unpacked event is scheduled to start from 18th January 2024, it’s going to be fun.
We have curated a list of some top-ranking wearables that you can expect at CES 2024. Read below;
1. Samsung
Predecessor to Samsung Galaxy Fit2, the Samsung Galaxy Fit3 is expected to be launched in January 2024, but it’s still not clear if Samsung will be making some more announcements along with the launch at CES 2024 or wait for their own event to start on 18th of January. Galaxy Fit3 images were leaked last month, and it’s not the first time that leaks have happened when Samsung is about to launch some of its new products. There is one more thing that the masses are expecting from Samsung- the Samsung Galaxy smart ring. Rumors are even more intense since Evie Ring has recently come up, and CES is such a huge platform to make some huge announcements like this
2. Fitbit
Google bought Fitbit in January 2021, and there have not been enough launches or even updates for their existing products since then. It is one of their most top rated wearables which is eagerly waiting for some updated versions, it’s highly expected that Google could come up with some new features in variants for Fitbit Luxe 2, whereas parallelly some new announcements for some new prototypes are also expected.
3. Movano Health
The most famous smart ring of the present time is the Evie ring. With features never seen before and a fresh approach to measuring the bio metrics, this is something that has also appealed to the CES 2024 jury members, and Evie Ring has been invited for the Innovation Honoree award. Its women-centric approach will be a topic of debate in the digital health summit, which is a key event in CES 2024.
4. Wearable Devices
Wearables devices is an Israel-based company that manufactures wearables AI-based neural input interface technology, but most of their top-rated product is the Mudra band, which was recognized as an Innovation Award Honoree and won the 2021 CES Best Wearable Award. Its top-notch feature is workability with Apple, which definitely makes it more appealing, and its appearance was confirmed when Wearable devices CEO Asher Dahan said in an interview.
“At the 2024 CES, Wearable Devices will demonstrate the Mudra Band’s groundbreaking capabilities in neuro-gestural control. This participation underscores our role as a pioneer in the field of wearable technology and our commitment to enhancing user interaction with digital devices”.
5. Garmin
Considered as one of the top-rated manufacturers when it comes to GPS and other satellite-based data and signal processing devices. Garmin never misses any chance to showcase their innovative products and technology in CES and there are expectations regarding their Garmin Lily 2 smartwatch for its updated version to be announced or showcased in CES 2024, whereas Garmin has recently launched their Venu 3 and Vivoactive 5 so there are not very high chances, but again, being one of the most innovative company who keep devices simple yet highly equipped with top technology, could arrive with some updates in Garmin health and AI integrations and it could be under the long list of what wearables to expect in CES 2024 along with other strong contenders.
6. Abbott
One of the biggest names when it comes to health, integrated with AI and technology. Abbott’s Lingo has already earned huge fame in the markets of the UK, and this time, it’s expected that Abbott has plans to broaden the reach of the product, and by making a grand entry at CES 2024, along with some updates. Lingo is a wearable device that includes a biosensor to measure the levels and spikes of glucose in the user’s body. Abbott chief executive Robert Ford said at HLTH 2023 in Las Vegas, “We are creating a new consumer biowearable that not only tracks your glucose levels, but, using AI, delivers a personalized coaching plan to help you develop healthier habits, and motivate you to do the hardest thing: modify and adapt your behaviors and habits”.
7. L’Oreal
L’Oreal is the world’s largest company with noticeable developments in the field of hair color and care, skin care, sun protection, make-up, and perfumes. Recently, it has been reported that L’Oreal CEO Nicolas Hieronimus has booked a prime slot in CES 2024. There is no other news at the moment as to what exactly the announcement will be about, but experts are suggesting that some wearable device with UV protection sensing capabilities could be showcased, or some other major news could be revealed.
8. Withings
Withings registered its name in history when it developed the world’s first analog smartwatch about 10 years ago. Since then, they have been winning awards for being one of the most innovative brands and developing wearables that are way ahead of others. Withings never misses the chance to make some noise at the CES event every year. Last year, they showcased the U-scan device, the first of its kind to be used in your toilet, which is also known as a home lab. Although it was not in the wearable category, let’s hope this time that the world’s most innovatively driven wearable brand comes up with something that users can carry along to measure their health metrics.
9. Vuzix
Vuzix CEO Paul Traveres has already confirmed that they will be showcasing their newly developed connected smart glasses at CES 2024. American-based Vuzix is the leading supplier of wearable virtual reality and augmented reality display technology, along with its experience of about 20 years of manufacturing and selling computer display devices and software. A company that holds this much capability and experience in viewing devices definitely comes under the category of wearables to expect in CES 2024 to showcase a smartglass with some unconventional features and specifications.
