- Digital Trends takes a look at the year in consumer electronics by publishing its Best of 2011 Awards.
- The multi-section report features categories including: Digital Cameras, Headphones, Computers, Home Theater, Cell Phones, Tablets & eReaders.
- “Smartphones now connect at 4G speeds, pack dual-core processors, and run two mature, fully featured operating systems, with a third still brewing,” reports Digital Trends. “Ultrabooks have taken the successful design elements pioneered by the MacBook Air and made them more affordable. A number of potent Android tablets have given the iPad a run for its money, and low-price introductions like Amazon’s outstanding Kindle Fire now sell for as low as $200. It’s a good time to be a geek.”
- Best desktops and laptops of 2011: Apple MacBook Air (13-inch, $1,299 and up); HP Pavilion dm1z laptop ($400 and up); Origin Genesis with quad-core Intel processor ($1,337 and up); HP TouchSmart 610 with touchscreen ($1,350 and up); and the ASUS G74SX laptop ($1,449 and up).
