Chinese tech firms pump up volume at CES show in Las Vegas

Chinese high-tech companies have showcased some of the most eye-popping gear at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas last week, bidding to reverse their lack of global brand recognition.

Experts say the established firms Lenovo and Huawei are moving more upscale, while Hisense and Haier, relative Chinese newcomers to the US market, have rolled out some of the biggest and most advanced TVs and slimmest smartphones.

“One of the things that strikes you [at CES] is the presence of the Chinese brands,” said Bob O’Donnell, an analyst with the research firm IDC.
