Our review process
Understand what each assessment is based on.
Hands-on reviews
A hands-on review must be based on actual use of the product. Any measurements need an explanation of the method, equipment, display mode and relevant conditions. State the limitations of the testing and distinguish observations from manufacturer claims.
Research-based assessments
These assessments use documented specifications and attributed external evidence. They must not imply that the monitor was physically tested by this site. Sources should be linked where they support the assessment, and unresolved questions should be stated.
Model identification
Identify the exact model and any regional variation that affects the information. Check the manufacturer’s manual and specifications before adding product claims.
Recommendations
Explain who a monitor suits, the important trade-offs and the alternatives considered. Avoid unsupported scores, fabricated measurements or claims of testing.
Commercial relationships
Identify affiliate links and paid placements. Disclose supplied review samples and any relationship relevant to an assessment. A paid placement is not a substitute for evidence supporting an editorial recommendation.
Corrections
Readers can report an issue through the contact page. Include the article URL and the claim you believe needs checking.
