CES 2025 Day 3: Wireless TVs, Futuristic Electric Cars and More

CES is continuing on, and MacRumors videographer Dan Barbera has been wandering the show floor to find interesting products, some of which are Apple related and some of which are just neat.


Cars might not be the main focus of CES, but there are definitely vehicles to check out. Sony and Honda teamed up for the Afeela, a $90k car with a futuristic design and a whole glut of screens inside, plus a built-in gaming system. It's an EV that can go up to 300 miles, and it has some autonomous driving features.

As for more traditional tech, the Displace is a truly wireless TV that can run off of batteries, so it technically doesn't need to be plugged in except when it's charging. It comes in 27-inch and 55-inch models, and has an OLED display. There are attachments for HDMI inputs, a browser for watching any internet-based content, and apps, and it can apparently be mounted in 10 seconds using an active suction system.

Pricing starts at $2,499. While there's a 10,000mAh battery and extra battery accessories available, Displace didn't share details on how long the battery lasts in the standard models. The company's website suggests that the more expensive Pro model lasts for up to 60 hours when included speakers and soundbar are attached.

Other highlights from the show floor so far included the tri-fold ultra portable projector from Aurzen, multi-camera bird feeder from Birdfy, a couple of robot lawnmowers, and the Hypershell Exoskeleton.

Dan will be checking out more products today, so make sure to stay tuned to see tomorrow's CES roundup video. We're also covering announcements from CES, which you can check out at our CES 2025 hub, plus we did a Day 1 CES video and a Day 2 CES video.

If there’s one device in my house I don’t need wireless, it’s my tv. Not sure the application for domestic use, maybe corporate use for wheeling out during presentations but not really domestic use.

All the TVs were wireless when I was a kid. The TV signal came out of the sky and into something called an antenna. Oh, and they were all instant-on too—no waiting for the thing to wake up, establish a connection, launch apps, etc. It was truly incredible technology. (Wasn’t battery powered, but hey, who needs that for a device that sits next to a power point 24/7.)

I don't think you've covered the new bidet. I see a new health niche for Apple to explore: https://www.ces.tech/ces-innovation-awards/2025/digital-healthcare-bidet/

I recently acquired one and my life has completely changed. I had no idea. I had to tell the guys I lift with about this miracle tech and one said "Don't ever bring that **** into the gym again.......EVER." So I took my bidet and went home.
Been using bidets for about 15 years, but our new one lifts and closes the lid automatically…scared the hell out of my mother-in-law, so there’s that…

Bird feeder with three cameras hanging off it and solar panels "made from plastic for sustainability". I've heard it all. Saving the planet one ridiculously unnecessary bird feeder at a time.

Traditional bird feeders are made from wood that literally grows.

I'm guessing the Hypershell is a mobility assistance device? Useful for the gamer whose legs have atrophied.
