Best of CES 2015

LAS VEGAS — Every year, the International CES brings with it a colossal wave of new and innovative devices, and much of what appears at the show will define consumer tech in the following months. CES 2015 is no exception.Given current trends in technology, we expected to see smart home devices, ultra-high-res TVs and driverless cars to be highlights — and those categories are represented — but there are surprises, too. Personal transporters appear to be having a resurgence if this year's show is any indication, and computer monitors are suddenly sexy again thanks to some nice curves and 4K resolution.Conversely, the "Internet of Things" is undoubtedly the megatrend of CES 2015, but few individual devices have stood out. Connected and self-driving cars are on the rise as well, but there are few players and thus few notable examples.
The biggest standouts were in relatively mature categories. An ultra-thin tablet, an incredible smartphone charger and a novel streaming service all surpassed the restrictive limitations of their predecessors to create a significantly better experience. That's progress.Here are Mashable's Top Picks of CES 2015.
