We always love seeing quirky accessories at CES, and Lenovo has its fair share of unusual gadgets to reveal at the tech show. The newest one is the Go Desk Station with Webcam. The model name doesn't explain much about what this gadget is, but it's basically a webcam, adjustable desk light, Qi wireless charger, and expansion hub in one.

It has the Lenovo GO 4K Pro Webcam, which is available as a standalone camera. This cam is built for video conferencing and high-res streaming with support for up to 4K at 30 frames per second streaming, autofocus, and auto-framing. It even has auto ambient light adjustment. The Go Desk Station attaches to the top of the lamp.

Ahead of its CES 2023 appearance, LG also has its new 2023 soundbar lineup coming to the show. The new SC9 and SE6 models both come with Dolby Atmos and DTS:X immersive sound. These soundbars will have a feature called Wow Orchestra. This tool "utilizes every one of the two products’ audio channels to create an expanded soundstage with improved height, depth and power." It's unclear how this translates to real-life use, but it will arrive via a software update post-launch. The two soundbars will also come with Wowcast to make it wirelessly connect to LG TVs over Wi-Fi.

JLab joins other headphone companies working on hearing aids you can easily access. The company plans to unveil two models in 2023. It hasn't revealed too many details yet, but we're hoping to hear more about these at CES 2023. There will be the OTC Hearing Aid and Self-Fitting OTC Hearing Aid. The former will retail for US$99 (around CA$135), while the latter's price will be announced later.

Both are expected to have "impressive" battery life and work with iOS and Android devices. And based on the renders above, they look like regular JLab earbuds, making them easily blend in as normal buds when worn. JLab also plans to debut these hearing aids alongside the JLab JBuds Mini and Epic Lab Edition in the third quarter of 2023.
