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.

Q: Do you sell products directly?

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.

Q: Do you test products?

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.

Q: How often do reviews get updated?

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

Deals & Pricing

A: We compare current price vs. recent lows, check price history where available, and avoid fake “80% off” claims.

Q: Are prices the same for everyone?
