1. Motorola Droid Razr
Thin is in, and Motorola has outdone itself with the aptly named 7.1mm-thick
Droid Razr. It hits all the right numbers with its 4G LTE Verizon network, a dual-core processor and a 4.3-inch super AMOLED display. After our hands-on session, we thought the $299.99 smartphone packed a powerful punch for Android fans. It ships on Nov. 10, but our only gripe? It won’t have the latest version 4.0 of Android on board — better known as Ice Cream Sandwich — until early next year.

2. Google TV
Google TV was a flop in its first outing, but maybe the search giant’s version 2.0 of its television platform might bring redemption. The company’s replaced its first Google TV user interface with a more capable Android Honeycomb 3.1 operating system, bringing along with it the promise of thousands of apps that might take your TV places you never dreamed of.
Android Market
The Android Market, a familiar sight for smartphone users, is coming to Google TV.

3. Kindle Fire
Amazon rolled out the
Kindle Fire at the end of last month, but its reverberations continued through October in anticipation of its Nov. 15 sale date. At $199, it’s the lowest-priced tablet from any major player. It’s running the Android operating system, but its home screen looks nothing like it, resembling a bookshelf instead — and that gives you a clue of its purpose: It focuses on content. In fact, it
costs Amazon more to manufacture a Kindle Fire ($209.63) than its retail price, but Amazon, being “the world’s largest bookstore,” plans to earn its money from selling ebooks for its new tablet. There’s no 3G, no camera or microphone, but this handy little slab with its new
Amazon Silk browser, dual-core processor, 8GB of storage and a 7-inch touchscreen might be
just good enough.
4. iPhone 4S
Of course we would have to mention the
iPhone 4S, with its dual-core processor speeding up both its graphics and responsiveness. Along for the ride was its top-billed feature,
Siri, a work in progress that gave us a peek at what digital personal assistants might someday become.

5. Lytro Focus-Free Camera
We got a chance to play with this groundbreaking
Lytro camera that gathers images and lets you decide how they’re going to be focused later. We found the prototypes well-designed, completely operational and working well. This quintet of videos will give you a good idea what’s in store when these $400 wonders hit the market next year:
