Top 100 Multimedia Trends in 2025

From Multipurpose Gaming Tablets to Powerful AI Processors

— January 17, 2026 — Tech
2025's multimedia trends are comprised of products and technologies that prioritize personalization, immersion, and versatility. From theatre-quality living room projectors to photo-centric decentralized media, this list explores what brands are drawing and keeping attention within the multimedia space.

Furthering its impactful work in the technology space, Samsung has introduced the Freestyle AI+, the world’s first portable projector powered by AI and generative AI, earning a CES 2025 Best of Innovation award for video displays. Designed to overcome common challenges of portable projectors, it features AI Real-Time Focus and AI Object Avoidance to deliver clearer, more adaptable images on a wide range of surfaces.

Additionally, the Tapo C246D Dual Lens 2K Pan Tilt Security Camera is a new surveillance solution designed for broad property coverage. Featuring two 2K 3MP lenses—one wide-angle with a 125° view and a rotating, tilting telephoto camera—the system delivers 360° visibility from a single, under-eave-mounted unit.
