CES trade show is the biggest fair in world. Every year, we can see the latest products in the show. Recently, Apple and Microsoft announced that they will not attend the 2015 CES trade show.

In 2014, the total attenders of CES is about 160 thousand, in 2011, this number is 140 thousand, it was increased by 15%. The exhibitor in 2014 is about 52 thousand, in 2011, it is about 51 thousand. As the biggest trade show, many exhibitors have to attend it even they are not willing to.

Of course, in CES, we have seen many successful products, and many failure as well. In 1998, the HD TV was already displayed in the show, but after 7 years, its market share was only 7%. 5 years ago, 3D TV set was also shown in the show, but till now, few people would like to wear a 3D glasses to watch TV. In 1996, Apple also launched a failure product, named Pippin.

Now, Apple announced it will not attend the CES trade show. Even in 2014, Apple just sent out 4 buyers to visit the show.

In 2014, LG and Sony were working on the 4K resolution TV set, and we believe, in the show, 4K TV will be one highlight of the show, another new technology will be wireless recharge. As estimation, in 2016, there will be many wireless recharge products in market.
