How we sustain independent performance testing while keeping our content free for everyone.
What is an Affiliate Link?
Throughout our site, you will see links to retailers like Amazon, NordVPN, and others. If you click on one of these links and make a purchase, we may receive a small commission from the retailer.
This comes at absolutely no extra cost to you. In many cases, our partnerships allow us to provide you with exclusive discounts or extended trials that you wouldn't find by going directly to the site.
Independent Testing First
Our editorial team and lab technicians work independently from the brands we review. We do not accept paid reviews. Whether a product is an affiliate partner or not, it goes through the same rigorous stress-testing and performance benchmarks.
If a product fails our tests, we will tell you—regardless of our affiliate relationship with that brand.
Why We Do This
Professional tech testing is expensive. It requires specialized hardware, laboratory conditions, and hundreds of man-hours. Affiliate commissions allow us to stay 100% independent and ad-free, ensuring our only motivation is finding the gear that actually performs.
