Editorial Standards
Our commitment to integrity, accuracy, and independence.
Core Principles
At TheTechRank, trust is our most valuable asset. Our editorial content is built on three pillars:
- Independence: Our reviews are never influenced by manufacturers, PR agencies, or advertisers.
- Accuracy: We fact-check every claim and verify every specification.
- Transparency: We disclose how we test products and how we make money.
Review Process
Testing Methodology
We don't just read spec sheets. We live with the products we review. Our testing involves:
- Real-world usage simulation over extended periods
- Standardized synthetic benchmarks for objective performance data
- Battery life drain tests under controlled conditions
- Comparative analysis against direct competitors
When a product receives our specific rating, it is based on a consistent scoring rubric applicable to its category.
Affiliate Disclosure
TheTechRank is reader-supported. When you buy through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate commission. This does not affect our editorial independence:
- Writers and editors are not aware of specific affiliate deals when reviewing products.
- We recommend products based on merit, not commission rates.
- We will critically review (and not recommend) bad products, regardless of affiliate potential.
Corrections Policy
We strive for 100% accuracy. If an error is discovered, we will correct it promptly and, when significant, add a correction note at the bottom of the article indicating the change and the date it was made.
