Introduction
Before acting on a recommendation, check how the article reached its conclusions, whether it identifies a commercial relationship, and when its information was published or updated.
A review label alone does not establish hands-on testing.
Relevant commercial links should be disclosed in the article.
Prices, products, and information can change after publication.
Recommendations need context
A review, comparison, or buying guide should be read within the scope it describes. The word “review” alone does not mean a product was tested hands-on. Look for the article’s explanation of its evidence, methods, and limitations before relying on a recommendation.
Commercial and affiliate links
Articles may include sponsored or affiliate links. If a link is an affiliate link, the publication may receive compensation when a reader follows it or makes a purchase. An applicable article should identify the commercial relationship near the relevant content. A sponsored-link notice links back to this page for additional context.
An external link is not necessarily an affiliate link, and a commercial relationship does not tell you whether a product fits your needs. Check the seller’s current price, terms, and product information before buying.
Information can change
Product specifications, prices, availability, software, and recommendations can change after publication. An article’s dates provide context; they do not guarantee that every detail remains current.
