What Lab-Specs is
Lab-Specs is an independent hardware review site. We buy or borrow the gear, put it on the bench, and publish what the instruments say — not what the marketing deck claims. Every review is built around measurements you can check, photographs of the actual unit under test, and a verdict that follows from the numbers rather than the price tag.
This is placeholder copy — edit it to describe who you are, what categories you cover, and the standard a product has to clear to earn a recommendation.
How we test
Our method is meant to be repeatable and boring, in the best sense. For every product we cover we aim to:
- Record the full specification as tested, including firmware and revision, so a review can be reproduced.
- Run a fixed set of benchmarks per category, on the same rig, so results are comparable across products.
- Publish the raw figures — throughput, latency, power draw, thermals — alongside how they were measured.
- Photograph the hardware ourselves and note anything the spec sheet leaves out.
- Separate the score from the price, then weigh value only at the end.
Replace this list with your actual test bench, tools, and scoring rubric once they are settled.
Why reader-supported
Lab-Specs is funded by its readers, not by the companies whose products we review. Some links on the site are affiliate links: if you buy through them we may earn a small commission at no extra cost to you. That revenue keeps the lights on and the test bench stocked. It never buys a better score, a softer verdict, or coverage that would not have happened otherwise. Manufacturers do not see reviews before publication and do not get approval over what we write.
