Haswell, Surface Pro 2, and Kindle Fire HDX top PCWorld's 'Best of 2013' list

December 10, 2013

It’s the most wonderful time of the year. Not because of the parties for hosting and the marshmallows for toasting, but because this is when the PCWorld and TechHive editors get to recognize the year’s best new tech products. The competition to make the list was more fierce than in years past because we decided to winnow the list to 50 instead of 100. Each editor had a tall task convincing the rest of us why theirs should make it and someone else’s should get bumped. It’s been a good year for innovation on all fronts: hardware, software, and services. As you’ll see, notebooks, tablets, smartphones, and other mobile products dominate our list. No surprise, right? That’s the fastest-growing market segment right now. But you’ll also find plenty of gadgets, tech toys, and entertainment products that made the cut. We’ll present the top 5 products here and in the video above. After you watch the video, hit this link for a slideshow where we’ll present all 50 of the best tech products of 2013.To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here
