Popular science began writing about technology more than 150 years ago. “Gadge writing” didn’t exist when we published our first issue in 1872, but if it did, our mission to demystify the world of innovation for everyday readers means we would have been everywhere. Here in the present, PopSci is fully committed to helping readers navigate the increasingly daunting array of devices currently available on the market.

Our writers and editors have decades of experience covering and reviewing consumer electronics. We each have our own obsessive specialties – from high-end audio to video games to cameras and beyond – but when we review devices outside of our immediate services, we do our best to research Trusted voices and opinions to help guide people to the best recommendations. We know we don’t know everything, but we’re happy to experience the analysis paralysis that internet shopping can cause so readers don’t have to.
