Every year there are a few obvious trends at CES, and this year wearables are everywhere. One rather surprising candidate is Razer. Best known for its gaming gear, the company is jumping into the fray with a smartwatch and tracking band mash-up called the Razer Nabu.
Over the past couple of years, gaming accessory maker Razer has made big splashes at CES with ambitious projects aimed at changing the the way we game. The Nabu smartband is out to change the way we live. I’ve come to depend on Razer for splashy game-related reveals at CES, projects that lead to products like the Razer Blade laptop or the Razer Edge PC gaming tablet. So I jumped at a chance for a pre-briefing before the show with Razer CEO Min-Liang Tan, expecting some massive new PC gaming project.
