2016 was truly one of the most baffling periods for technology teeming with a series of significant iterations and trends being instituted. While the majority of companies steered throughout the year quite conventionally and righteously followed their usual roadmap, there were a bunch of them who startled the crowd by an announcement no one was particularly expecting. Of course, we are discounting the crazy crowdfunding projects which continue to experiment and only sticking to established names.

However, we still missed some important tech products that would have made the day of every tech enthusiasts in the country.

We are talking about StreamTV Networks that announced their 3D TV, which boasts a fully adjustable 4K glasses-free 3D panel. It was first showcased in CES 2016 and is currently in production and is being manufactured by Pegatron. We have our fingers crossed on this one.
