Sony CES 2025 Keynote: Live Coverage and What to Expect
Sony's CES 2025 keynote is about to begin, and viewers can tune in for live coverage right here. The spotlight is expected to remain on the Afeela electric vehicle, which was a major highlight of Sony's presentations in 2023 and 2024. Its involvement in this year's keynote has already been confirmed, signifying a notable shift for Sony, a long-standing player in the consumer electronics market known for its products like the Walkman, Trinitron TVs, PlayStation consoles, and Alpha cameras.
What to Anticipate from Sony's CES 2025 Press Conference
The Afeela represents the first major product from Sony Honda Mobility, a partnership between the Japanese tech and automotive titans. After its surprise introduction at CES 2023, the 2024 press conference elaborated on its LiDAR-heavy sensor suite and AI-powered interior technologies, developed in collaboration with Microsoft. If the previously announced schedule holds—preorders expected in 2025 leading to a 2026 launch—attendees will likely hear about which innovative features of the Afeela will make it to market.
However, the event won't be solely focused on the Afeela. Sony is also likely to highlight its progress in imaging technology, gaming, and perhaps share updates from its movie studio division. There is hope for more information regarding Sony's XR headset, showcased at the 2024 event but not featured subsequently. CES 2025 could be the perfect opportunity for an in-depth look at a potential competitor to the Apple Vision Pro.
