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.
Google is arguably the world’s most popular search engine, and millions of people input millions of words (that are mostly comprised of “cat” and “porn”) into it every day. Every year, Google compiles a “Zeitgeist” of the most popular terms that year. The list has a section for gadgets, and in the US list, Sony’s PlayStation 4 console, released last month, is right up there on top. Microsoft’s Xbox One, on the other hand, doesn’t even rank in the top 10.
