CES 2015 - Razer unveils Nabu X wearable ,a powered Android TV console and a new wireless gaming keyboard /mouse combo

Razer makes some of the best looking gaming kit out there , although the three headed snake usually comes in expensive gaming equipment , their new Nabu X fitness wearable and the Forge TV Android console are probably exceptions, and with their new product launch , Razer might be signaling their arrival to the world of mobile devices .

The Razer Forge TV will also have the ability to play streaming games (Razer Cortex)  from a PC over Wifi (like the Shield/Nvidia GRID streaming system) . Even if you are not into gaming , the set up box can be used as a video streaming unit or a second Android device to view or browse the internet on .
