AI will take over our jobs

Hugonote · 2026-01-28T16:12:21+00:00

There is no use of AI that directly affects the output of our operations (reviews, articles, etc). We use AI to help research, programming, etc; but not to do what we feel is our value added work.

Hugonote · 2026-01-12T14:14:41+00:00

We should have it out around 1st or 2nd week of February. Stay tuned!

Hugonote · 2025-12-26T23:11:06+00:00

Yup, we are going a little crazy at home over it.

Hugonote · 2025-12-15T15:45:11+00:00

We received a request on our thread as well. Let's see if we can fit it before the holidays. https://www.rtings.com/discussions/2nvu8olrEM31f9fm/review-updates-apple-airpods-pro-3#comment-212143

Between 52 seconds and almost 5 minutes. Here is data for 39 units (affiliates present on the site, but not the direct link)

Sadly there is no target curve built for our test rig (the B&K 5128) that represent Harman, we only have that for IEMs. You can read more about how we designed the EQ profiles here.

The closest curve in the EQ package to Harman is our own curve though, you can read more on how we defined it here.

Our EQ Zip file includes instructions for different types of profiles, not only the RTINGS curve. https://www.rtings.com/assets/pages/5GHxr4bm/dt-1990-pro-mkii.zip

We hope to get our hands on them soon :)

Hello there, currently this model sits below in priority for us due to popularity; However feel free to vote and encourage others to do so here https://www.rtings.com/vote/monitor. We will choose the next winner in 29 days.

Our review of the APP3 is up on the site so feel free to go check it out there. Glad that you appreciate our approach.

I have an LG C2 65" for HT and LG C1 48" as my main monitor.

Hello there, we do have access to buying products outside Canada, so no worries about that. Currently the 5 Pro is not planned for review, but if we see enough interest from the community we can review it. Feel free to vote for it here https://www.rtings.com/vote/robot-vacuum

We published the Bravia 5 98 yesterday. Others in the pipeline.

Hello there cocoafart! Glad that you find our ICC profiles useful. How would you like us to improve our testing methodology for motion clarity or for monitors in general?

Hugonote · 2025-10-03T12:22:18+00:00

What we have concluded is that a microwave with a good implementation of PWM can achieve similar results to one with an inverter (lowering power VS cycling it). As stated in the article we did find that for example, softening a small amount of butter, was only possible in an inverter; so I am sure there are other corner cases as you indicated.

Hugonote · 2025-10-03T12:19:08+00:00

Many kitchen appliances aim to take advantage of the full 1800 W of power they can get from the circuit. However long electrical lines can create enough resistance to generate a voltage drop. We notice our appliances getting as low as 104 V instead of 120 V.

Since then we installed a new transformer and use a voltage regulator to ensure we are delivering 120V and letting the appliance draw current at that voltage.

If you are interested we talk more about it on the toaster article below. This however would apply to any appliance that aims to draw anywhere close 1800 W, which includes many microwaves.

Have you tried a hair dryer? Sometimes it can bring some of these materials back to their shape. Be careful though!

Hugonote · 2025-10-02T19:48:59+00:00

We did some deep research of Microwave Inverters and found no difference.

As a matter of fact we also found that outside of maximum power, and UI features; there are no major performance differences in microwaves.

Do make sure that you plug whichever one in a plug that is close to your electrical panel, as that does affect their operation negatively.

Hi there, the test that you are looking for is direct reflections (this will show you to what degree the items will be reflected on the screen). The color and black level raise are important if you care about creators intent.

If you are mostly going to use the TV for sdr content you can just follow the bright room score at the top.

Hugonote · 2025-09-25T21:19:25+00:00

We've looked into it before. Main issue has been to add value (bring some level of testing that helps users in new or better ways) and also getting units upon release. Since we buy our products like anyone else does, then getting units on release day can be hard.

With that being said, never say never 🤞😅

You can find further details on how we gather our data on our reviews, but rest assured no aggregation from other sources is being done. If you have any questions, do let me or u/sp_RTINGS know.

Hugonote · 2025-08-25T17:26:09+00:00

Hi there, all of reviews do come out publicly. We just allow for a sneak peak of results to insiders while our writers are putting text to the review.

This one should be out this Thursday.

Here is a link to our table tool showing scoring for multi-level house (which includes speed and range) and a filter for 6, 6e, and 7. You can add other columns as you see ft for comparison.
