do a search for "xbox one" on bing and then on google. the google search gives the latest and most popular unbiased articles from tech sites; the bing search results seem to avoid anything critical of the xbox one. so bing isn't trustworthy... of course, neither is google, but if you're going to skew people's opinions, at least be subtle about it.

You really call there being nothing critical of it in here?

At least try out your lies before making shit up.

I just did as you suggested and Google had more positive things to say about the XBox One than Bing did - but Bing had more links to official XBox things (if you search for Gmail you'll see the same pattern of Bing having more google-related links than Google).

Bing is definitely not as good a search engine as Google is, but I would say it's DEFINITELY more trustworthy (has less negative trustworthiness at least), considering how Google has been behaving lately.

In general I find Google MUCH better at finding things out on the internet, but if I want to interact with an offline business, Bing normally gives me a better experience. For this reason I mostly use Bing (+Wikipedia search) on my phone and Google on my desktop or tablet.

At work I only use Google, as I find Bing quite useless for looking up things related to my work (I'm a developer).

TL;DR: Google is better at most things, but Bing is ok too (unlike a couple of years back when it was quite horrible).
