Power Outage Brings CES to a Standstill

A major power outage essentially shut down parts of CES in Las Vegas Wednesday. Lights went out in the Las Vegas Convention Center in the late morning, leaving the booths of major companies like Samsung, LG and Huawei in darkness.

The Consumer Electronics Association, host of CES, acknowledged the outage on Twitter, calling it an isolated event.

There is an isolated power outage at the Las Vegas Convention Center. We are working hard to resolve this and appreciate your patience.
