Top Technology Releases of 2012

Monday, December 24th, 2012 – running time 07:47

A look at some of the most stunning technology that came our way in 2012. It was a really amazing year!

From Google+ Communities to new cellphones and even human organ printing, 2012 was one of the best tech years in recent memory! We show you a couple of our favorite tech of the year as we head into 2013!

As great as social media is, a lot of people have a hard time finding people to connect with. Google+ Communities changes that.

Samsung Galaxy Note II

The Samsung Galaxy Note II was my favorite release for keeping up with everything while out and about.

Google Now pushes the productivity of our mobile devices. The best example of a virtual personal assistant we have to date, and it'll only get better.

AfterShokz conduct the audio through your bones. You still hear everything perfectly! The music and your surroundings.
