New Technology:
A smartwatch made by Google
Android Wear
Google delayed its big software update for Android Wear watches until 2017, and the company is expected to launch its own watch as well, according to Android Police.
The circular smartwatches will be Google's opportunity to inject new interest into its wearable computers, a category that's been dominated by the Apple Watch so far.
A new version of Microsoft's Surface Pro

We didn't get a new Surface Pro in 2016 — that's the first calendar year with no refresh since the Surface Pro debuted. We'll be overdue for an update in 2017, so it's pretty reasonable to expect one from Microsoft.

Microsoft's first-ever laptop, the Surface Book, should be due for an update in 2017, too. The computer got a bit faster and more powerful this year, but it'll be interesting to see if Microsoft can push its capabilities even further in 2017.
New virtual reality headsets that work with Windows 10

A new, free update coming to Windows 10 early next year will let just about anyone use a VR headset with their PC.
The headsets will start at just $299 and come from a variety of companies like Dell, Asus, and Lenovo. That's much cheaper than other headsets like the Oculus Rift, which starts at $599.
New form factors from Fitbit.
Fitbit
Fitbit launches new fitness trackers every year, but 2017 could have a twist. The company said recently that it's exploring new form factors for its products.
What does that mean? It's unclear, but it sounds like we may see Fitbit expand beyond fitness trackers you wear on your wrist.
