# Electronics, benchmarked against the claim.

Every gadget checked for spec truth (claimed vs. bench-tested), certification authenticity (FCC, UL, CE), first-party sellers, and counterfeit patterns. We fail anything that lies on the box.

## Gear EyeQ actually trusts

Cleared spec verification, cert authenticity, first-party sourcing, and review integrity — in that order.

### Anker

**PowerCore 10000**  
Bench test confirms 9,800mAh usable vs. 10,000mAh claim — one of the only legit power banks at this price.  
3 authentic retailers $24.98% of claim

### Apple

**AirPods Pro (2nd gen)**  
Zero counterfeit flags across Apple, Amazon first-party, and Best Buy in the last 30 days. Skip 3P.

1 authentic retailers $149 Amazon-sold

## These gadgets fail EyeQ's checks

Flagged for spec-truth failure, missing certifications, or counterfeit packaging. Cheap price, expensive mistake.

### AirPods Pro knockoff

**"Wireless earbuds Pro Max"**  
Unregistered FCC ID, plastic shell, battery cycles fail after ~40 charges. Near-identical packaging to Apple.  
Counterfeit + FCC failure

### Fake-capacity power bank

**"10,000mAh power bank"**  
Bench test shows ~3,400mAh actual capacity — 34% of the label. Ships with no protection circuit.  
Spec truth failure

## Four checks. Every gadget. No affiliate pressure.

The electronics lens: spec-truth bench testing, certification authenticity, first-party sellers, and review integrity. If the capacity or wattage lies, we fail the product.

### Spec truth

Benchmarks claimed capacity, wattage, and resolution. A "10,000mAh" that tests at 3,400mAh fails — we publish the number.

### Certification check

Validates FCC ID, UL listing, CE mark. Counterfeit certs match known cloned-ID databases and get flagged.

### Seller authenticity

Apple.com, brand-sold Amazon, Best Buy authentic. 3P marketplace listings audited per-seller for gray-market risk.

### Review integrity

Detects burst patterns, cloned reviews across listings, and verified-purchase ratio. Fake 5-stars don't count.
