Good: The Moto G Google Play Edition runs pristine Android 4.4 KitKat right out of the box and for a rock bottom price. It's compact, has a premium build quality, and powerful speakers.
Bad: The Moto G's processor is slow, it has no LTE, and storage is limited to 16GB. The dim screen lacks contrast and vivid colors, and its camera takes blurry photos and lacks an HDR mode.
Bottom Line: If you yearn for pure Android KitKat on the cheap, the Moto G Google Play Edition is worth the price, but power users should look elsewhere. [Read more]

Good: The Acer Aspire V7 offers several configurations, including this one, with a hybrid hard drive, Nvidia GeForce 750M graphics, and a 1080p touch display.
Bad: The bland design and clunky touch pad don't feel like they belong on a $1,000-and-up laptop. A shallow keyboard makes productivity a chore.
Bottom Line: Despite the low-rent exterior, the Acer Aspire V7 packs a lot of what we want into a reasonably priced 14-inch ultrabook, including a high-res touch screen, mainstream graphics, and plenty of ports. [Read more]

Good: The Vizio M-Series M1d-A3R is an excellent value with great design and a snappy picture; great shadow detail, fairly deep black levels, and excellent video processing.It also offers sleek styling and an improved Smart TV system.
Bad: It doesn't have as deep a black level as a plasma; suffers from more blooming than many LCDs; skin tones appear a little red; similar motion resolution to a 120Hz TV; reflective screen; Yahoo apps seem clunky; remote sensor isn't very responsive.
Bottom Line: The 60-inch Vizio M1d-A3R doesn't quite offer the very best value for money in the company's range, but nevertheless features fine picture quality in a large size. [Read more]

Good: PowerPot V is a lightweight thermoelectric generator that doubles as a pot for cooking. You can charge your appliances and make dinner at the same time.
Bad: Since you're dealing with heat sources and thermoelectric tech, you really have to follow the use and care guidelines (you know, for safety). Some of the rules are downright fussy, though, which can make usability a tad tedious.
Bottom Line: The Power Practical PowerPot V is a useful gadget for connected outdoor-types, and $149 seems like a fair price for anywhere charging capability -- whether you're camping under the stars or hanging out at home during a power outage. [Read more]
