Tranzistorul a revoluționat industria electronică, permițând apariția Erei Informației, și a făcut posibilă dezvoltarea aproape tuturor dispozitivelor electronice moderne, de la telefoane la calculatoare și rachete. Realizările sale din domeniul superconductivității, care i-au adus al doilea premiu Nobel, sunt folosite în tehnologii medicale cum ar fi tomografia calculată și imaginile cu rezonanță magnetică.
În 1990, Bardeen a apărut pe lista celor mai influenți 100 de americani ai secolului, în revista Life.[12]
