Engadget Reveals Top Tech Innovations at Return of In-Person CES 2023
Engadget returns to Las Vegas to crown the best gadgets of CES 2023 after three years of virtual shows. Highlights include accessibility tools like L'Oréal's motorized lipstick applicator and a variety of cutting-edge consumer electronics.
Engadget officially returns to Las Vegas for CES 2023, marking the first time in three years that the editorial team evaluates gadgets through in-person, hands-on testing. A dozen staffers explore the show floor to find the most impactful and innovative technology, signaling a true return to form for both the publication and the tech industry at large.
The annual Best of CES awards highlight products that people will still be talking about long after the event concludes, deliberately filtering out vaporware and frivolous distractions like smart pee gadgets. This year's winners span eleven distinct categories, featuring notable advancements such as wireless televisions, an electric Ram concept truck, and a high-end stand mixer designed to make baking foolproof.
L'Oréal takes home the Best Accessibility Tech award for Hapta, a motorized lipstick applicator developed in partnership with utensil maker Verily. The device features a stabilizing grip-and-gimbal system that allows individuals with limited hand and arm mobility to apply makeup independently, proving that impactful technology extends far beyond traditional consumer electronics.
