Review Sony PlayStation 4, Is a Fantastic!

The PlayStation 4 is the most powerful games console on the planet. With more graphical power than the Xbox One, 32 times more system memory than the PS3 and a firm focus on pure gaming experiences rather than media mojo, it has established itself as the next-gen console to beat.

It's a games console built by gamers for gamers. It won the hearts and minds of many from the word go, with lots of prospective next-genners left feeling alienated by some of Microsoft's bizarre policies and choices for the Xbox One – many of which were reversed as a result of a backlash.

iOS 7 Jailbreak Released, What About That?

At long last, an untethered jailbreak for all iPhones, iPads, and iPods running iOS 7 is available to download. Early reports suggest that the Evasi0n7 jailbreak, released by the Evad3rs group, works flawlessly — but for now, we cannot recommend that you install it. There is a lot of controversy surrounding both the development and release of this first iOS 7 jailbreak, and an internal source at Evad3rs tells ExtremeTech that the jailbreak contains “Chinese malware” — a prominent placement that reportedly netted a “high six figure” payment for the Evad3rs. Furthermore, with iOS 7.1 due to land any day now, there is concern that the Evasi0n jailbreak gives up the zero-day vulnerability too soon, allowing Apple to quickly plug the hole.

Welcome to Google Android 4.4 KitKat

Google Android 4.4 builds on the success of Jelly Bean with KitKat, a powerful mobile operating system that makes up for its lack of candy coating with a solid framework. You can look forward to always listening Google Now, a new dialer that brings the power of search to your phone calls, and tons of tweaks under the hood to make this the slickest version of Android to date. But despite being fast and reliable, there's not much new for users to sink their teeth into with KitKat. Android users waiting for a response to the bold redesign of Apple's iOS 7 will have to wait, because KitKat is pretty much status quo.

Review Asus VivoBook V551LB-DB71T

  In recent months we've seen plenty of slim laptops and ultrabooks adding Windows 8 and touch to the portability and performance that ultraportables are known for. While the Asus VivoBook V551LB-DB71T may look like more of the same at first glance, it ups the ante with Intel's new fourth-generation processor, discrete Nvidia graphics, and all-day battery life, offering even more of the performance and portability you expect in an ultraportable. But with these sort of slim designs becoming the new normal, the Asus VivoBook V551LB takes top spot for touch-enabled mainstream desktop replacement laptops.By Brian Westover,

Review Acer Aspire S7-392-6411

By Joel Santo Domingo, The Acer Aspire S7-392-6411 ($1,449.99) is half an inch thick and worth every penny you pay for it. It is a premium high-end ultrabook that adds performance and battery life to one of the thinnest laptops we've ever reviewed at PCMag.com. It's got a bright, clear 1080p HD display, instant wake from sleep, 10-point touch screen, and looks nice from the moment you pull it out of your commute bag to the second you put it away for the day. It's got eight and a half hours of battery life along with high end performance thanks to a 4th generation Intel Core processor, plus durable and quick SSD storage. It's one of the best examples of what the corporate system builders can come up with when Intel pushes harder and more stringent standards for its ultrabook initiative, and therefore is our newest high-end ultrabook Editors' Choice.

Review Apple MacBook Pro 15-inch (2013)

The new MacBook Pro 15-inch looks identical to the previous Apple MacBook Pro 15-inch (Retina Display), and it's no wonder, since last year's model was a new design. The 2013 model has the same aluminum and glass construction, the same 15.4-inch, 2,880-by-1,800 resolution IPS display, and the same chiclet-style backlit keyboard. The MacBook Pro 15-inch has a pair of speaker grills flanking the keyboard. Aesthetically, it is a more balanced design, though number crunchers may miss not having a keypad for spreadsheet data entry. The sides of the chassis are vented to let air flow through the base of the laptop, cooling the processor and batteries. The large multi-touch trackpad is centrally located and responds instantly to commands. The keyboard is as comfortable to type on as previous models, is solid, and is evenly backlit.
