How we rank

GizmoBuy exists to help you buy the right product, not the most heavily advertised one. Here is exactly how our rankings work.

1. We research facts, then write our own analysis

Specifications, model details and approximate prices are researched from public web sources and refreshed periodically — every price is shown with a “price as of” date and should be confirmed on the retailer before buying. Buy links are affiliate links. We never copy another site’s reviews, ratings text or prose — every verdict, pro and con on this site is written by us from the underlying facts.

2. The ranking formula

Each product gets a computed value score — how complete its key specs are, multiplied by how its price compares to the median price in its category. In short: more specs for less money scores higher. It's recomputed from the data every time prices refresh, so it's never hand-set. We then order products by:

1. Value score (specs and features per rupee);
2. Price (lower wins, all else equal).

We don’t show or rank by star ratings — we can’t verify third-party review counts, so we’d rather rank on specs and price you can check yourself.

3. Badges

Editor’s Choice marks the top overall pick in a category. Best Value marks the highest value score. Price Drop appears when the current price is meaningfully below its usual selling price.

4. Prices & freshness

Prices are refreshed regularly and shown with a “price as of” date. Prices and stock change constantly, so always confirm on the retailer’s page before buying.
