LG CES 2019: Press conference livestream, start time, and what to expect

We will also see some new smart kitchen appliances and likely more audio products to add to the three soundbars with Google Assistant and Dolby Atmos support which it has already revealed.

LG’s announcement-focused CES 2019 press conference is scheduled for Jan. 7, 8AM PT. LG also has a more general keynote planned for 6:30PM PT later that day.

Intel CES 2019: Press conference livestream, start time, and what to expect

Intel is rumored to be preparing a new 10-core 14nm CPU codenamed Comet Lake that could be unveiled at CES 2019. Even more intriguing, Intel might be preparing to introduce its own discrete graphics card.

What does this mean exactly? Well, Intel historically isn’t a big player in the high-end PC graphics game, with its graphics chips mostly used in lower-end devices and laptops. If this latest rumor proves correct, Intel might be preparing to challenge Nvidia in a big way.

Intel’s CES 2019 press conference is scheduled for Jan. 7, 4PM PT. We’ll update this post with the livestream as soon as it becomes available.
