PS4 most-Googled tech gadget of 2013 in US

4.7
The PlayStation 4 was Google's most-searched-for item this year in the Tech Gadgets category in the US. The data is according to the Google's Zeitgeist, which rounds up and compiles the year's most popular searches. The Xbox One, meanwhile, didn't break the top 10 for the US. Worldwide, the PS4 comes in at number three in the Consumer Electronics category, while the Xbox One is right behind in the number four slot.

Combine this information with the fact that both the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One sold 1 million units in 24 hours. Add in the NPD's report that the PS4 is the "top-selling" console while the Xbox One is the "fastest-selling." The result is one undeniable, unquestionable truth:

People searched for, and bought, the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. *Jazz hands!*

Stex The Xbox didnt look good to begin with, I agree with the fact the PS4 was more popular to begin with, so happy!


And it's $100 cheaper. I like it more. :)

SurvivalOfTheFittest I believe PS4 are sold more than Xbox Ones`s


Keep the initial Xbox One press conference failure with the DRM and all.


I am a PlayStation guy but keep in mind ... The Xbox was released later than the Ps4 and the Ps4 is available in more places ...


The PS4 was released later in a fair few regions but i get where you are coming from. I also prefer PlayStation personally

Bloomy I can't believe PS4 beat out Xbox One.. Oh well..


Same, the PS4 stock is dead. However the Xbox One stocks back up after selling out.


its dead because they sell out in 20minutes PS4 sold 12k consoles in 24 minutes on a amazon restock.
