http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/02/eng-award-2012-rc.gif …And the results are in! We asked for your favorite tech picks from 2012 and you answered. Readers (and no doubt some manufacturers) spread the word, helping us reach a total of more than 280,000 votes. Some winners were obvious picks: the Tesla Model S took home top honors in the transportation category, with 25.9 percent of the vote, and the Apple’s MacBook Pro with Retina display won for best laptop – though not without some stiff competition from the Razer Blade. Other winners were upsets, as you’ll see below the break. Click through for the full results across 15 categories, then check back tomorrow, when we’ll post our Editors’ Choice champions.
