Before you buy

Questions buyers ask.

  • Who is #1 for “all products”, and for how long?

    Apple AirPods Pro 3 is the #1 product this week, and has been #1 for 8 of the last 25 weeks. Samsung is the #1 brand, #1 for 21 of those weeks.

  • What changed on this chart in the last four weeks?

    4 of the top 20 products were not in the top 20 four weeks ago. The #1 then was Sony WF-1000XM6; it is #2 now. Among brands, 1 new name joined the top 20.

  • Do buyers, reviewers, owners and the press agree with the AI?

    16 of the top 20 were checked in October 2026: none fails the check, and people place 2 much lower than the AI does. 8 pass the check: people back them.
