🧮 How We Got This Score

In short: each of the 4 reviews is turned into a 0 to 10 number, stronger evidence counts for more, and the numbers are averaged.

  • 0 reviews gave their own numeric score, and those count extra. The others are scored from their overall tone.
  • First impressions and reviews without hands-on testing count less.
  • If 80%+ of reviews lean the same way, the score moves by 0.5. This time: 0 (no direction reached 80% agreement).
  • 50% of reviews lean positive, and scores are far apart (spread 2.9). Agreement: Low.
  • How we got there: score 5.3/10, evidence moderate (4 reviews, 1 hands-on).
  • Reviews are dated Mar 2026 to Oct 2026.
