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!*

It surprises me because I would go with the Xbox One.

Craigyy It's the one I'd choose out of the two. The PS4 seems a lot more polished.

it is smoother, the xbox one UI freezes at times and some times party chat doesn't work right.

INB4Consolewar. Why does everyone have to hate on the opposite console like seriously!? Both consoles are equally great. I bought a xbox one because has my fav games on it + controller feels awesome. Also bought a ps4 last week because it also has a few nice games on it. Really they both feel great to me but personally i like the x1 controller better.

Every bloody day i see ps4 vs xbox one war's or forza vs gran turismo war's. So **** annoying.
