http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/01/feb20ps4620x340pxhedimg_620x340.jpg With the Game Developer's Conference coming up next month, Sony's got a big event tonight, and the odds are good that what they'll be announcing is the next PlayStation home console, be it the "PlayStation 4" or the "Orbis" or whatever. The details/rumor have been flying fast over the past year, and with Sony being notoriously tight-lipped about the system (even denying they were planning the next generation...

I want to know about the best cameras or camcorders for YouTube recording. Also, do you guys suggest those flip cams for recording. I mainly need itfor shooting iPad App reviews and stuff.
In the recent months there has been tons of speculation over who will manufacture the next Nexus device for Google. Rumours have been abound for many manufacturers, most recently LG, but others pertaining to HTC, Sony, Samsung, and even Motorola. Here is a brief rumour roundup with mockup photos of each LG Optimus G Nexus could be seen in November. (http://mobilesyrup.com/2012/10/04/lg-optimus-g-ne... Spec-wise similar to the...

I have a set of old Sony Earbuds that have been with me for around 10 years. I've tried many others, but I always come back to the Sonys. They cost about $20 and the only things printed on them are Sony and R/L. They have what could be called a very "natural" sound that has held up in every environment you can imagine. I've used them listening to audiobooks while operating heavy equipment and walking around busy downtown areas and in coffee shops and on buses. The R wire is longer that the L, so...

The short question, as per the title- do you recycle your old gadgets? The long story: At the beginning of July, I found myself faced with an odd situation. I realized I had kept (read: hoarded) a bunch of my old cell phones. Each in a different state of disrepair, none of which I would consider properly working or repairable I knew it was time to let go. Now, I knew I wouldn't be able to pull any significant cash from them so I started to look into various routes of recycling. There are...

Why doesn't gdgt have a section for must have home A/V receivers in best gadgets? I also don't remember seeing must have car stereos. I need one stop shopping for my gadget obsession.
What is the best recording video setting? I am going on vacation and I want to get the best quality from the videos I take. Can someone tell me whats the difference between AVCHD and MP4 (pros & cons). Even if you dont own this camera and what to chime in feel free.
So with back to school offers out, which do you like the most? As a reminder: Apple: Buy a mac get $100 App store card, but an iPad get $50 App store card ( http://store.apple.com/ca/browse/campaigns/back_to... ) Microsoft: "U.S., students who buy a qualifying Windows PC worth $699 ($599 Canada) or more at participating retailers can get a 4GB Xbox 360 console for free" ( http://windowsteamblog.com/windows/b/windowsexperi...

During tonight's Sony press conference, they announced that PlayStation Suite, which allows downloading of PlayStation games and other content to mobile devices, would be a) renamed to PlayStation Mobile and b) would be coming to HTC devices. Currently it's only available on Sony Mobile phones and the PlayStation Vita. This definitely is indicative of a shift from PlayStation as a hardware brand to more of a content brand, and it's similar to how Xbox Live is also available on Windows Phone, as...

Okay, so I am looking to buy a camera for anywhere between $200-280. What do you guys think I should get? I was hoping to get something that could take really good pictures in the dark and when it was bright outside, something that could record in 1080p, something that could record audio very well along with video that had a good fps rate, something that had good zoom and megapixels and if ti had auto adjust that would be cool. Also if you guys could point out anything that is useful to have in...

Although I haven't looked at the numbers myself, hearsay indicates that the gaming industry is really in a slump--which is only offset by the repurposing of consoles as all-encompassing home entertainment devices. A good friend made a valid note which clarifies an argument that has never been clearly expressed by those attempting to make it: while mobile gaming isn't 1:1 competitive in quality and depth, it's scratching an itch that's never been satiated before. Such casual gaming is taking the...

I am just curious as to the evolution of users' cell phones over time. I realize this may date some people on the discussion, but it should be interesting to see. My cell phone history is this: Starting in 2004 Motorola T720 (1 year) Nokia 6101 (1 year) Sony Ericsson K790a (3 years) Sony Ericsson X10 and BlackBerry Bold 9700 (16 months of dual phones) BlackBerry Pearl 3G 9100 (1 month before unfortunate water damage) Sony Ericsson X10 (for another 5 months) BlackBerry 9790 (1.5 months and counting) My ...

Hey guys, I'm looking to purchase a mid-range to high-end DSLR, and I know absolutely nothing about the cameras, brands, or photography itself. Let me make this clear though, I will learn. I don't do anything halfway, so please don't be concerned about how advanced the devices may be, or how high the learning curve is. That said, what makes the difference when you folks purchase a camera? Are there reasons behind brand loyalties in this sector? How about lens ecosystems, how important are those?...

I'm going to Sweden and Iceland this summer. I own the Nikon AW100 and plan on using it for most of my pictures and videos by purchasing another battery and bringing extra memory cards. I'm curious if I should invest in something like a Canon T3i. I've never had a DSLR and the size and cost of the thing scare me for taking on a two week vacation. I've had other point and shoots, but I like the AW100 for the durability. My questions are: 1. How hard is it to learn how to use the thing? How durable...

In February 2013, I'm up for upgrade on Verizon. I currently have an iPhone 4. I'm going to get an iPhone 5 if I do upgrade, but I actually also want a Playstation Vita. If I do buy a Vita next month, I won't upgrade my iPhone until December 2013. I really like the idea of gaming on the go with physical controls, and I really like the game selection. They are both in the same general price range. What do you think? iPhone upgrade now and Vita never, or Vita now and iPhone upgrade in Christmas...
There now are pleanty different Bluetooth speakers but when will the first headphones with good quality appear? I hoped to see some after this years CES. There is one German producer called Medion who has one pair of Bluetooth headphones available but I bet those are poor quality.
This is a fat, 80gb, four usb, backwards compatible (model CECHE01) fat PS3. I bought it used in fall 2008, so four years on a used console doesn't seem so bad. I love how it looks, having the sd card slot, four usb ports and I even stuffed a 500gb hard drive into it about a year and a half ago. I haven't used the backwards compatibility since 2009, so that feature lost its luster a long time ago. I have been having some recent issues with my PS3 and decided to back it up about 2 weeks ago, so...

I'm getting tired of using an FM transmitter as it is pretty spotty at times with lots of interference, so I'm thinking of replacing my stereo with a new one that has an AUX input, USB, and Bluetooth. If I had a choice, I'd love to use Bluetooth to listen to music, but I've read that Spotify does not fully support Bluetooth, and will work off and on. Has anyone tried this? If bluetooth is not the best way to go to run Spotify from my iPhone through a stereo, I'd be fine with using AUX or...

Well, to be frank, I am not a professional photographer. I just want to buy a good camera to take photos. Since I would like to memorize every second of beauty and touching moment. Those could happen on my way to office, on my way back home, when hanging out with friends and family, whenever I come into a new place. LOL~ any suggestions? Thanks~~
Is te Vita revolutionary or just a great device that finally incorporates the features gamers have been long begging for? Does it have features related to the PS3? How is the launch title lineup?
