The year is pretty much over, as far as the tech world is concerned. Just about every major product that's been announced is available to buy in time for the holidays.

Keep in mind this isn't a comprehensive list, and it doesn't account for the surprises we'll likely see in 2017. But these are the gadgets we think you should be the most excited about.

Samsung Galaxy S8

Samsung's first opportunity to recover from the Galaxy Note 7 debacle will come with the launch of its new flagship phone, the Galaxy S8, in the spring of 2017.

While we don't know too much about the device, Samsung has announced that it will include a new digital assistant powered by Viv, the artificial intelligence startup Samsung bought earlier this year. Oh, and Viv was founded by the same people who built Siri.



A foldable Samsung phone?

Samsung has been working on bendable displays for years, but 2017 could be the first time we actually see it in a phone.

The company recently filed a patent for such a device, fueling speculation that it's coming soon.



Galaxy Note 8?

The future for Samsung's Note phones are uncertain, following the unprecedented recall of the Galaxy Note 7 this year.

There have been some scattered reports that Samsung may abandon the Note altogether in 2017. But if the Note does make its return, then expect to see it in the fall.
