How it works

1. We collect the specs

Only figures published by the manufacturer, each linked as a source. If a spec isn't published, we say so instead of guessing.

2. A formula ranks them

Each spec is placed on a fixed scale and weighted by how much it matters. The scales and weights are printed on every page.

3. You decide

Read the pros, cons and sources, then check the current price. We may earn a commission from Amazon, which never changes the order.
