About Tech & Trendy
Q: What is Tech & Trendy?
A: We’re an independent site covering deals, honest reviews, and trending picks in tech and lifestyle. Short, useful, and bias-free.

A: No. We don’t sell or ship products. We review, compare, and link to retailers.
Q: How do you choose what to feature?
A: We choose by analyzing reader interest, products’ usefulness and their value for money. Hype alone doesn’t make the cut.
Editorial & Reviews
Q: Are your reviews paid or sponsored?
A: No paid placements in reviews or the newsletter. If an item is sponsored elsewhere, it’s clearly labeled.

A: Wherever possible, yes. If we have tested, we state it and rely on transparent specs, independent data, and long-term user feedback.
Q: What’s your rating or verdict style?
A: Clear pros/cons and a simple “Buy if / Skip if” so you can decide fast.

A: When prices, competitors, or key features change. Major guides get periodic refreshes.
