The annual Consumer Electronics Show (CES) is set to kick off on January 7, marking the beginning of a new year in the consumer electronics and automotive industries. As one of the most anticipated tech events, CES 2025 promises to bring together the biggest names in the industry, showcasing their latest innovations and setting the tone for the year ahead.

This year's event will feature keynotes from tech giants such as Nvidia, Samsung, Toyota, and Sony, among others. While the show officially runs from January 7 to 10, most of the major announcements are expected to take place on January 6, dubbed "Press Day," through in-person press events. Fortunately, for those who cannot attend in person, all the key press conferences and keynotes will be livestreamed, either through the companies' press pages or CES itself.

One of the most highly anticipated keynotes is from AMD, which is expected to unveil its next-generation GPU to compete with Nvidia's reported RTX 5000 announcement. AMD's GPU is rumored to be part of its ongoing rebrand, potentially launching as the RX 8000 or RX 9000 series. The company's keynote is scheduled for January 6 at 11 a.m. PT/2 p.m. ET.

Toyota will also take the stage on January 6 at 4 p.m. PT/7 p.m. ET, followed by Samsung at 5 p.m. PT/8 p.m. ET. Samsung's CES presser is often an enigma, with the company typically keeping its powder dry when it comes to consumer electronics. Instead, the Korean electronics giant is expected to focus on its TV and appliance offerings, with a possible appearance by its consumer robots.

Nvidia, the chip giant with a $3.4+ trillion market cap, is poised to have the biggest CES 2025. The company's founder and CEO, Jensen Huang, will help kick off the event with his trademark leather jacket and an unwavering vision. Nvidia's keynote is scheduled for January 6 at 6:30 p.m. PT/9:30 p.m. ET, and is expected to showcase the company's latest innovations in the AI space.

As the tech industry continues to evolve, CES 2025 promises to be a pivotal event, setting the stage for the year ahead. With the ability to livestream keynotes and press conferences, attendees and non-attendees alike can stay up-to-date on the latest developments from the world's top tech companies.
