Format and Scale for Reviews
For most of the product that I'm going to be reviewing on this website, it will follow this format and scale,
The Good:
The Bad:
Using it:
Score:
The scoring system is out of 10 and is as follows,
1- Avoid at all costs. Burn your cash if you're going to purchase this product - at least you'll still get heat out of burning it.
2- Almost identical to 1, however, there is 1 minor thing that the product does well. Still, do not buy it. Email me and I'll tell you my bank account number, where you can dispose that money you were going to spend.
3- There are some colossal problems to the product and the bad heavily outweighs the good. Try it in store first and you'll still most likely be disappointed.
4- The product has some good and bad points. However, there is a glaring problem or two that prevents me from recommending it at all.
5- This is AVERAGE. Not 6, not 8, but 5. Products in this level is average, the good and bad balances each other. Try it in stores first.
6- An slightly above average product, with about 3-4 minor problems. It is recommended that you try this in stores. All the above rules apply.
7- This product is above substantially above average with only 3 minor problems that does not affect day-to-day operations. The product must be a joy to use without any problems hindering it. All the above rules apply.
8 (Silver)- Why no bronze? Because I hate that color. But anyway, for a product to get an 8/10, it has to have no more than 2 minor problem that does not affect the product in day-to-day operations. Product must look good and is value for money!
9 (Gold)- This product has to be amazing. With almost no flaws at all, this product can only have 1 downside to it, for example, the buttons on a iPhone case feels a little stiff - something that does not really affect day-to-day operation. The product must look great and it must be something that changes the way we do things on a daily basis.
10 (Platinum)- This award will almost never be given out unless the product is completely flawless. There is not a single mistake I can find at all and it must be a product that pushes or have a significant impact on the industry. Currently, I can't actually think of an example of one. We'll have to see.
So there you have it guys, the format and scaling for reviews. This grading scale will be used by me and hopefully, some of the other writers in this blog. Thanks for reading.
