According to the website of Hong Kong’s South China Morning Post on January 12th, at the annual event of the technology industry, the 2025 Consumer Electronics Show, Chinese companies demonstrated their influence with the number of exhibitors and various smart products ranging from robots and smart glasses to electric vehicles, household appliances, and more.

According to reports, Chinese companies accounted for about a quarter of the over 4500 exhibitors at the annual technology exhibition held in Las Vegas. Artificial intelligence is the absolute theme of this exhibition, showcasing more practical applications in almost all sub sectors of consumer electronics products.

Yushu Technology showcased various models of robots, including humanoid and quadruped models, targeting both the consumer and industrial markets. The Yushu humanoid robot G1 is equipped with 23 to 43 joint motors, demonstrating strong flexibility and the ability to transition from a standing position to a full squat or a lying down position.

The design of cute pet robots also attracted a lot of onlookers. The cute and intelligent companion robot Ropet attracts curious visitors. This AI driven device is capable of sensing the user’s emotional state and adjusting its own expressions, actions, and behaviors accordingly.

According to reports, in addition to being used for entertainment, many robots exhibited also have practical functions. For example, swimming pool cleaning robots and lawn mowing robots with artificial intelligence capabilities are expected to achieve fully automated operation.

Artificial intelligence glasses are another major highlight. Unicon (Beijing) Technology Co., Ltd., which has participated in multiple consumer electronics exhibitions, showcased its XReal One Pro – the most advanced augmented reality glasses in its product line. This product features a wide virtual screen with a field of view angle of up to 57 degrees, providing a smoother experience with extremely low latency and reducing the occurrence of motion sickness.

According to reports, Hangzhou Lingban Technology Co., Ltd. exhibited its own augmented reality glasses, which have a very similar appearance to ordinary glasses but have a display screen inside. The device currently supports real-time translation in multiple languages and can project floating text in front of the user’s eyes.

Chinese companies keep up with the trend and develop products with displays, speakers, or cameras, or a combination of these features, “said George Gilgiashvili, Senior Analyst for Gaming and Augmented Reality/Virtual Reality Products at Omdia.” Although this concept is not novel, the user experience has never been as good as it is now

The Chinese electric vehicle industry, which is not to be outdone, also left a deep impression at the exhibition. Geely’s Jike and Great Wall Motors showcased their latest models and autonomous driving technology. From manufacturers of laser detection and ranging sensors to factory testing companies, a group of automotive supply chain manufacturers also arrived at the scene.

Shanghai based LiDAR manufacturer Hesai Technology is riding the wave of intelligent electric vehicles. The co-founder and CEO of the company, Li Yifan, stated in an interview at the exhibition that the company expects to deliver up to one million vehicle grade LiDAR products this year. He also said that with the record breaking sales of electric vehicles, the entire supply chain has also formed economies of scale.

According to reports, Li Yifan said, “If our new product ATX (a high-resolution, long-range LiDAR) is mass-produced, the cost this year may only be around $200, while the average market price in 2017 was about $80000

Equally noteworthy is that Xiaopeng Huitian has showcased its split type flying car for the first time outside of mainland China. The “land carrier” produced by this airline, which belongs to Guangzhou electric vehicle manufacturer Xiaopeng, is designed to adapt to China’s increasingly developing low altitude economy.

According to reports, Wang Tan, co-founder and chief designer of Xiaopeng Huitian, stated that the company has received 3000 advance booking orders and will begin delivery from 2026 after obtaining regulatory approval.

Two large Chinese television manufacturers, Hisense and TCL, along with Korean competitors LG and Samsung Electronics, occupied the central exhibition area of the Consumer Electronics Show. These televisions are not only larger in size and brighter in brightness, but also serve as hubs for interconnected and AI driven smart homes.

According to reports, Peng Luping, Vice President of Research at Canalis Consulting, said, “The theme for 2024 is also artificial intelligence, but I think many companies were not prepared at that time.” She said that artificial intelligence products and open ecosystems are developing so rapidly that “many startups are now using these new achievements to create practical features, rather than simply adding artificial intelligence.

According to reports, other consumer electronics brands from China have also attracted stable and considerable customer traffic, including sports camera manufacturer Yingshi, hair dryer brand Leifen, charging equipment manufacturer Aoji, and smart lighting brand Zhiyan.

Alibaba Cloud, a subsidiary of Alibaba Group Holding Limited, made a low-key debut, showcasing its “Shadowless” cloud desktop service. This service allows users to connect to high-performance computers.
