The 8 most anticipated tech products of 2016

In 2015, many eye-catching products were launched at the technology exhibition, which also provided a lot of convenience for our lives. However, the development of technology will not stop here. Let's take a look at what technology products are worth looking forward to in 2016!

1. Oculus Rift and Touch controllers

One thing we can be sure of is that 2016 will be the year of virtual reality. The first VR device expected to be launched is Facebook's Oculus Rift headset, which needs to be used with a PC and an Xbox controller. In addition, the Touch motion controller will be launched later.

2. HTC Vive

HTC Vive is another PC-based VR headset that gaming giant Valve originally planned to release in 2015, but has now delayed until April 2016.

3. Sony PlayStation VR

PlayStation VR, previously known as Project Morpheus, is Sony's entry into the virtual reality race. But unlike the PC-based Oculus and Vive headsets, PlayStation VR will be tied to Sony's PlayStation 4 console. The device is expected to be launched in the first half of 2016.

4. Microsoft HoloLens

From virtual reality to augmented reality (or mixed reality): Microsoft's HoloLens is a standalone system that projects computer-generated objects into the user's field of vision. Microsoft's HoloLens development kit is expected to be available in early 2016 for $3,000.

5. iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus

There are many rumors that the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus will use a touch-sensitive home button to replace the mechanical home button and will give up the headphone jack. Of course, these are rumors and have not been officially confirmed by Apple. But it is certain that Apple will launch new phones in September 2016.

6. iPhone 5s Mark II

Apple focuses on creating the best experience for users. In terms of the size of mobile phones, 4 inches has always been the best size for one-handed holding. In 2016, Apple launched a 4-inch mobile phone. Japanese media Macotakara quoted reliable sources as saying that this new phone will be launched as an upgraded version of iPhone5s, and the name is iPhone 5s Mark II.

7. Nintendo NX

It's unclear what the NX will have in common with the current Wii U, but it could feature "industry-leading technology" to power a hybrid console/mobile gaming system. Nintendo's latest patent application shows its rectangular console will have a full touchscreen. Nintendo could release the NX in 2016, most likely at the E3 conference in June.

8. Tesla Model 3

Tesla's next electric car, the Model 3, may not hit the road until 2017 at the earliest. But CEO Elon Musk says you'll be able to pre-order it as early as March 2016. With a starting price of about $35,000, it will be Tesla's cheapest electric car yet.
