Lenovo IdeaPad Yoga 11S hands-on
Lenovo has been showing off a lot of devices here at CES, but one of the devices I've personally been most interested in is the IdeaPad Yoga 11S. After Windows 8 launched last year, I reviewed the IdeaPad Yoga 13, a computer that I ultimately liked a lot. A big reason why I liked the Yoga 13 was because of its 360-degree hinge, which allowed for four different configurations - laptop mode, stand mode, tent mode and tablet mode. It was incredibly cool, and I'm glad to see the same hinge present in the smaller Yoga 11S.

Samsung 85-inch Ultra HD UN85S9000 TV eyes-on
Samsung certainly knows how to grab attention, and the freshly announced Ultra HD UN85S9000 shown off at CES today is hardly shy and retiring. A whopping 85-inches of 4k-resolution screen, the vast TV – with a 110-inch version also in the pipeline – is incredibly bright and detailed, and even at a distance the quality and crispness is eye-catchingly impressive.
Samsung Multi-View: No more “I want to watch something else” arguments
Samsung wants to put an end to lounge arguments, adding a new feature to its latest TVs that allow two people to watch different shows - in up to Full HD resolution - simply by putting on a special pair of 3D glasses.
