The winners of the 11th Annual Engadget Awards: Editors' Choice
We trotted out some truly precious puppies to announce the winners of this year's Readers' Choice Awards, but now it's time to get down to business. As we do every year, we tasked our editor's with the monumental feat of sifting through the previous year's biggest innovations to select the absolute best in show. While there's some crossover with our Readers' Choice winners (sorry Fire phone), there were a few notable exceptions. But you'll have to check out the gallery below to find out what made the cut.
The (damn cute) winners of 11th Annual Engadget Awards: People's Choice

As is always the case, there were some very polarizing products on the ballot and many of the honorees won by a very small margin. But the real winners this year were the cute and adoptable puppies at the San Francisco Animal Care and Control (SFACC) shelter. The only thing we love here at Engadget more than true innovation is man's best friend, so we teamed up with the SFACC for a special awards ceremony. Early last week, a set of the most eligible animals in San Francisco accepted "trophies" on behalf of the companies that created your favorite gadgets and software of 2014. To find out who took top honors check out the video above, and to take home one of our special guests, please visit the SFACC for more information. And check back this afternoon to find out what won this year's Editors' Choice awards.

The winners of the 2013 Engadget Awards -- Readers' Choice
Well, the results are in -- first you nominated your favorite gadgets from 2013, then you voted on the most popular picks. Not to overanalyze the results or anything, but readers definitely have a fondness for legacy gadgets (like the second-gen Nexus 7 and the updated Amazon Kindle Fire), while a certain household name provokes a very negative reaction. Just to be extremely clear, note that the following winners have nothing to do with our editors' opinions -- our picks are coming tomorrow! Now that we have that out of the way, jump into the results past the break.
