CES 2025 highlights: 9 new gadgets you can buy already

UPDATE: Jan. 7, 2025, 9:00 p.m. EST This post has been updated with the latest releases from CES 2025.

As the Mashable team scampers around the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas this week, there’s one question that’s top of mind every time we visit a booth or attend a demo: “That’s cool, but when can I buy it?”

A lot of times, the answer is never. Many gadgets exhibited at the annual tech industry trade show are just concepts and prototypes that don’t make it to market. (That Withings OMNIA smart mirror for at-home health screenings, for instance? Yeah, there’s a good chance it’ll never see the light of day.)

But sometimes the answer to that question is soon — or even now. Below, we’ve rounded up a list of five new products from CES 2025 that consumers can buy or preorder immediately, from an AI-powered planter to a smart bird bath. We’ll be updating it throughout the week as more announcements go live, so check back often.

1. LeafyPod

Got a finicky pothos that acts like it’s perpetually under- or overwatered? The LeafyPod is an AI-powered smart planter designed to tell you exactly what it needs to thrive. It features environmental sensors that keep tabs on soil moisture, light, temperature, and humidity levels, and its built-in rainfall-esque watering system can change its schedule based on the plant’s current condition. (Its companion app features care info and watering schedules for over 100 common houseplants.) Also nice: There are no cords, so it looks just like a regular planter.

2. Lymow One

You’ve heard of the robot vacuum and the robot mop, but a new challenger is about to enter the arena: The robot lawnmower. If you’re lucky enough to even have a yard in this economy, one of your least favorite chores is most likely mowing your lawn manually. The Lymow One promises to take that task off your hands by doing all the dirty work itself, employing automatic boundary detection to get your lawn looking immaculate. While there’s no exact release date just yet, you can still back the Lymow One on Kickstarter as we speak.

3. XREAL One Pro AR glasses

Augmented reality is still in the “early adopter” phase in terms of audience and widespread utility, but if you’re looking to dip your toes in nonetheless, XREAL’s new One Pro AR glasses seem to be the new standard. The recently upgraded wearable has a speedier chipset with the XREAL X1, as well as a larger FOV, higher max brightness, and a more lightweight design compared to its predecessor. You can pre-order the XREAL One Pro AR glasses right now — they’ll run you $599 and are expected to ship out in March 2025.

4. Birdfy Bath Pro

Bird enthusiasts, rejoice, for the Birdfy Bath Pro is here. The camera-equipped smart bird bath does pretty much what you’d expect it to do: It allows you to check in on your avian friends as they use your bird bath to freshen up. How adorable! It comes with two different lenses — a wide angle and auto-tracking version — and has the option for an AI analysis add-on that’s supposed to recognize repeat visitors and take highlight photos. The Birdfy Bath Pro is currently up for preorder starting at $249.99 and is slated to ship out in March 2025. P.s. You can score $50 off if you preorder now.

5. JLab Epic Lux Lab Edition headphones

JLab’s new pair of ANC headphones is here in the Epic Lux Lab Edition. Joining the likes of Apple AirPods and the Bose QuietComfort line, the Lab Editions feature Adaptive Active Noise Cancellation, as well as an Aware mode. The headphones also have high-fidelity 32mm dynamic drivers, spatial head tracking, wireless charging, and more. The JLab Epic Lux Lab Edition ANC headphones are priced at $199.99 and should ship in mid-February.

6. Loona PETBOT

This is not a drill: the cutest robot at CES (by a long shot) is already available for purchase. Yes, you will have to shell out $500 (but at least you won’t be paying the full price of $527.99). The AI petbot powered by ChatGPT may at first glance appear like another robot trying to imitate a dog, but it does more than imitate wanting pets: “It can respond to commands, expressions, and gestures; recognize different people’s faces; adapt to its owners’ habits; monitor their home when they’re away via a companion mobile app; and answer queries conversationally,” writes Senior Shopping Reporter Haley Henschel.

7. TCL QM6K QD-Mini LED QLED 4K TVs

TCL released a new line of smart TVs on Jan. 6: the QM6K. It’s the first release in the brand’s “Precise Dimming Series,” claiming to deliver a picture quality unseen before in these TVs’ price bracket. Several processing advancements come together to create the picture quality in what TCL is deeming the “Halo Control System,” alongside a 144Hz native refresh rate, Dolby Vision IQ and Dolby Atmos Support, and new modes like Dolby Vision Filmmaker mode and Sleep Sounds mode. The TV will come in six sizes: a 50-inch for $749.99, 55-inch for $799.99, 65-inch for $999.99, 75-inch for $1,299.99, 85-inch for $1,999.99, and a 98-inch for $3,499.99. So far, the 65-, 75-, and 85-inch TVs are available for preorder on TCL’s website.

8. Shokz OpenFit 2

Shokz OpenFit earbuds are already a popular pick for those interested in an open-ear concept, but the latest iteration of the earbuds comes with some nice improvements. First off, you’ll get 11 hours of battery life per charge and 48 with the case, a good deal more than the seven hours per charge and 28 hours you’d get on the first generation. Along with that impressive battery, these earbuds come packed with new drivers, multifunction buttons, and the ability to switch between two connected devices with the press of a button. Best of all? They’re already available on Amazon for $179.95, the same price as the first generation of these earbuds (and just $20 more than their current sale price).

9. Govee Mini Panel Lights

Interested in customizable smart lighting but aren’t quite into paying Philips Hue prices? Govee is your brand. Though they’ve long been making products targeted at the budget Hue audience, the new Mini Panel Lights announced at CES are anything but an obvious budget choice. The curved lampshade and 15 lamp beads help create a three-dimensional effect, while AI helps ease the process of setup and creating unique designs. At the time of writing, you can grab a pack of 10 on sale at Amazon for $65 thanks to an on-page coupon that takes $35 off the $100 price tag.

Honorable mention: Dell Pro line

Dell renamed its laptop lineup, separating it into three distinct categories: Dell, Dell Pro, and Dell Pro Max. With the announcement, the new Pro line is already available for purchase. Despite the similar naming conventions to Apple, Dell Pro laptops aren’t necessarily for users looking for a little more power. Instead, these laptops are suited for business users (hence their status as an honorable mention). The new options in the line include the Dell Pro 13 Premium, the Dell Pro 14 Premium, the Dell Pro 16 Plus, and the Dell Pro 14 Plus.
