CES 2025 is in full swing. While the conference featured reveals from tech powerhouses like Nvidia, Samsung, and Toyota, there were also some very strange product concepts and announcements scattered across the show floor. We’ve rounded up the weirdest, funniest, and most amazing products from CES 2025. A coffee-drinking robot cat for you Image Credit: Yukai Engineering Yukai Engineering’s new gadget is Nékojita FuFu, a tiny robot cat. which can be attached to a cup or bowl and will blow air at human-like intervals to help brew coffee or soup. The company said the product was born after the team leader wanted an easier way to feed freshly cooked baby food “because doing so often made them feel suffocated and dizzy.” An electronic spoon that makes food taste better Image Credit:Maxwell Zeff Why add salt to your food when a $127 spoon can simulate the taste of sodium for you? Japanese company Kirin Holdings showed off an electronic spoon that makes your food taste saltier. The company says the spoon uses a weak electric current to concentrate sodium ion molecules in food, adding a stronger umami and salt flavor to low-sodium foods. Huge handheld gaming consoles Image Credit: Acer handheld consoles are great for gaming on the go, but Acer’s latest product really pushes the limits of what’s considered portable. Nitro Blaze 11 is undeniably massive: With a 10.95-inch display, it is not only the size of an 11-inch iPad Air, it also weighs as much as two iPad Airs stacked on top of each other. You may need to improve your wrist strength before trying! A concept laptop with a “rollable” screen becomes a reality A few years ago, Lenovo teased a concept for a laptop with a screen that could expand to a larger size. At this year’s CES, what was only a concept has become the ThinkBook Plus Gen 6 Rollable. The device’s 14-inch OLED screen can open itself and expand to a 16.7-inch panel with the press of a button or gesture control, effectively adding more screen space without a monitor or other accessories. And you can watch our friends at Engadget get up close and personal with the Gen 6 Rollable below. AI-powered spice dispenser Spicerr is another wacky food tech gadget from this year’s CES. The device bills itself as a Keurig machine for spices, with individual capsules that you can rotate while the AI detects the amount you need based on the recipe you’re using and gives it to you. If you want to add a little more than recommended, there’s also a “freeform” function that gives you more control. An AI-powered birdbath Bird watching technology is not new to CES. Longtime attendees may remember the Bird Buddy smart bird feeder or Swarovski’s $4,799 AI-powered birdwatching binoculars. The latest bird innovation comes from Birdfy: the smart bird bath. Bath Pro uses AI to detect when birds are using it and take photos – but there’s a monthly subscription fee if you want to identify species. Espresso machine $1,350 Image Credit:Research How much is too much for a caffeine jam? Meticulous showed off this smart espresso machine, which the company claims is the first with a robotic lever. The machine has 10 digital sensors that monitor the water temperature, pressure, flow rate, and weight of the liquid in the cup and can make real-time adjustments just like a barista. The preorder price for the machine is $1,350, plus another $250 if you want a milk steamer. A gaming chair that warms (and cools) your butt Razer showed off a gaming chair concept that heats and cools your seat like a fancy car seat. The system features a self-regulating heater that can go up to 86 degrees Fahrenheit, as well as a “bladeless fan system” that circulates cool air through a mesh backing so you can stay comfortable while grinding Fortnite. Tim Meadows next to a giant cup of coffee Credits Image:Kirsten Korosec When not to open the product, I would be remiss not to mention one of the silliest keynote moments of the conference. To illustrate BMW’s Panoramic iDrive, the company pretends to reduce the entire audience as if there is a major event inside BMW. Thanks to that, we now have this great photo of comedy legend Tim Meadows looking tiny next to a giant coffee mug. This $1,500 iPad Bundle That Will Be Delivered to You When You Die As our own Brian Heater writes, we’ve gotten to the point at CES where it’s hard to tell the actual product from an elaborate prank. In Case of Death is a grim bundle designed to be the dead switch for your digital life. It includes an 11-inch iPad case, a smart ring, an app, and a self-destructing 11-inch iPad Pro – which bricks in case of user death. According to the company, “death protection” includes features that can delete your browsing history, Rickroll your loved ones for eternity, and send your last social media post to your followers. Enron’s latest prank Although not technically revealed at CES 2025, the “resurrected” Enron announced a fake in-house nuclear reactor on Monday in order to draw attention to the transparency of the technology industry’s announcement. Called the “Enron Egg,” the latest hoax involved a CES-style keynote video that touted the egg’s ability to rule the home for 10 years straight and revolutionize the “power,” “independence,” and “freedom” industry. Confident! An adorable fuzzy robot for your wallet Yukai Engineering also debuted Mirumi, its latest adorable robot that attaches to your wallet and moves its head like a curious baby as it looks at its surroundings. The company says Mirumi is designed to “recreate the joyous experience people have” when interacting with babies as they express curiosity, shyness, and comfort.
