Last week, it was CES. “For the next three days, the world will appear on the brink of Westworld-ian potential,” wrote Tech Editor Matt Ankeny, and he was right. The market dazzled with everything from thin TVs and concept cars to smart clothing and emotive robots. We hope you weren’t overwhelmed, though: this week, it was Outdoor Retailer Winter Market, with acres and acres of badass outdoor gear, and the North American Auto Show, with new sheet metal galore.
Oh, and next week, it’s SIHH, or the second-biggest watch show in the world, where top brands reveal their wares; some are already making news.
There’s so much gear news, it’s overflowing — and even if you caught our main coverage of an event, we had plenty of juicy extras for you. Here they are. – Chris Wright

A Notable Quote from the Week
“My friend wrote a movie and his process was a mystery; I’m like, ‘How do you tie it all together?’ And he said, ‘Well, I just invented the problem, then I answered it.’ So I used that in design. I was like, ‘I’ll invent the problem.’”
