Top 6 Tech Trends and Gadgets of 2023
With the new year on the horizon, the world awaits new technology to wear, experience, and immerse themselves in. Here we explore some of the most highly anticipated tech trends as well as some gadgets that will connect you further with your interests and other tech enthusiasts.
Trends
Web3 Advancements
This blockchain-based structure of the internet is something to look out for in the new year. What is Web3 specifically? It is the advancement of the Internet away from the personalized ad-based and a supposed remedy to the perverse nature of the current Internet culture where companies are able to access sensitive information to make companies more powerful than ever before. Web3 will supposedly be more transparent, with the highest level of protection through encryption — a place where you are not merely a commodity of large corporations, but a pivotal part of the greater well-being of the Internet where you have more of a say in the decisions made about it. With cryptocurrencies and blockchain becoming increasingly implemented into our daily lives, it is not far-fetched to believe that Web3 will take its place at the top.
Health Tech Solutions
After the era of COVID-19, access to essential healthcare services remotely has become more and more necessary. Recent developments have indicated that 2023 will be the year for predictive diagnostics, remote care, and digitized documentation of medical records and appointments. The use of AI in healthcare will be implemented and health solutions will be more accessible to areas where it was never before. Startup healthcare tech companies are becoming popularized and innovation in this field is promising.
The Internet of Things
We are connected now more than ever before, and the Internet of Things expands on this idea. Devices with sensor technology that are interrelated will help businesses run more smoothly, save time, save money, and help individuals evaluate the success of their company. All these connected devices will find their way into our homes permanently — and their development has already started with Smart TVs, watches, refrigerators, and security devices. We can expect this Internet of Things to grow even more in 2023 to new heights with greater connectivity.
Gadgets
Apple Watch Ultra
Interested in expanding your Apple ecosystem? The introduction of the new Apple Watch Ultra (in its next generation) will be its latest installment. While pricey, it is a great product for athletes that depend on smartwatches to provide a reliable overview of their health and fitness. The current Apple Watch Ultra has 36 hours of battery life and we can only expect that its follow-up will lengthen this time as well as update and test new and improved aspects of the device.
Amazon Kindle Scribe
Since the introduction of the first Kindle, Amazon has been upgrading its popular reading device with new gizmos that add to its value. The new Amazon Kindle Scribe allows users to write notes on their book pages while also maintaining their no-glare technology that gives readers the ultimate reading experience at their fingertips. This device will be one of the most promising and popular of 2023 as leisure reading climbs up the list of people’s more valued hobbies.
