CES 2018 began with a bang today, or should I say a flood. The first rain to fall on Las Vegas in 116 days swept into the city yesterday, drenching crews who were rushing to open the show. By this morning, the convention center was leaking, Google had to shut its splashy pavilion and rivers were flowing through a hotel …

Year to year, CES has a certain sameness about it: Intel’s booth at the front, Sony’s in the back and thousands of ginormous TVs in between. The topics and trends feel like the same things we’ve been talking about forever: Internet of things, smart home, autonomous vehicles, wireless everything.

“You use this for a week and then go to any other phone, you’re going to be upset,” says Tom Moss, Razer‘s head of mobile. He’s talking about the Razer Phone. (From Razer, the company you might know from mice, headsets or laptops.) It’s real. It’s sitting in my hand. It’s unlike any phone I’ve held all year.  Update: Here’s …

Razer is rumored to be working on its own phone, and now we may have an idea of what it’ll bring to the table. Rumors of the phone started after a report claimed that the gaming hardware company went public to help fund the device. Razer also acquired Nextbit, makers of the Nextbit Robin phone, which adds more evidence to the …
