Frequently Asked Questions
Does Giant Gadget accept review units from hardware manufacturers?
We receive loaner review units but retain complete editorial freedom. Manufacturers have no preview rights, influence over test outcomes, or power to alter verdicts.
How long does Giant Gadget test a device before publishing a review?
Most devices are tested for at least 14 days under daily driving conditions, with flagship products tested for 30+ days to observe real-world battery degradation.
How do you score gadget repairability?
We assess ease of battery replacement, availability of standard screws, availability of official replacement parts, and modular internal layouts.
Can I suggest a Kickstarter or indie hardware project for review?
Yes! Reach out through our Contact page with product specs, prototypes, and shipping schedules for consideration.
