The 10 Best Gadgets of CES 2022

As COVID-19 cases continue rising due to the rapid spread of the Omicron variant, this year's CES was once again different from years past--some in-person events went on as planned in Las Vegas, but several big names in the tech world, like Google, Intel and Microsoft, took their announcements virtual instead. Still, that doesn't mean CES 2022 was without its share of high-tech splendor. Those who did show up in person--or logged on to the virtual announcements--were treated to innovations ranging from BMW's color-changing SUV to Razer's cutting-edge modular PC concept. With a trick that looks right out of a James Bond movie, German automaker BMW's new electric iX Flow uses e-ink technology to completely change its color scheme from black to white and anywhere in between; it can also showcase complex patterns and designs. While the IX Flow's color options are limited to the same grayscale gamut you'll find on your e-ink reader, the tech has benefits beyond the cosmetic: on a hot day, drivers could reduce the car's interior temperature by switching from black to a more reflective white option.
