At the 2025 Consumer Electronics Show (CES), innovation was the name of the game. While some companies went overboard with impractical gadgets, others just repackaged familiar items. Among them, Tessan stood out, winning a SlashGear Innovation Award for their smart designs. Tessan’s debut at CES was impressive, even though the company has been around for a while. They’re known for their clever universal travel adapters, advanced digital charging power strips, versatile wall outlets, cutting-edge EV charging stations, and intuitive smart home devices.
Tessan’s CEO, Alex, explained the company’s philosophy to SlashGear’s Dave McQuilling. The brand focuses on common traveler frustrations like compatibility issues and bulky adapters. Their designs are guided by simplicity, functionality, and putting the user first. Before CES, Tessan had already won prestigious iF and Red Dot design awards. At the show, they impressed with their super-fast Level 2 Smart EV charger.
The company’s approach to design isn’t about flashy gimmicks but real solutions that make life easier. Their products are thoughtfully designed to solve everyday problems, making them stand out in a sea of high-tech gadgets. Tessan’s success at CES highlights the importance of user-centric design in the tech world.
