Built for buyers, not advertisers.
Verdex is an independent review and comparison site. We benchmark every device against a transparent, weighted rubric — then publish both the verdict and the raw numbers. No sponsorships, no paid placements, no reviews before a device ships.
Independent
We buy devices at retail or request review units under no-conditions terms. If a score is challenged, we re-test and publish the delta.
Transparent
Every score decomposes to raw benchmarks. Click any number to see the run, the rig and the date.
Built to last
Scores are re-validated quarterly and after major firmware updates — so the rankings never go stale.
The rubric
Each category has its own weights, but the spine is consistent.
Performance
Geekbench 6, Cinebench 2024, 3DMark Speed Way, sustained throttle curves
Real-world
App cold-start, export times, gaming at target resolution
Experience
Display colorimetry, speaker response, thermal comfort, haptics
Longevity
Battery drain, firmware update policy, repairability
Value
MSRP vs score, street price deltas, regional availability
