By and large, most of the so-called professional reviews are pathetic and nearly useless, and often little more than a paid advertisement.

Reviews at a site like Amazon are filled with fanboys and fangirls purring over their latest toys. Or the opposite, anti-fanboys and anti-fangirls who seem to be strangely married to another manufacturer. Many of these reviews are by idiots who haven't even purchased the item being reviewed. So 99% of these reviews are useless.

The best reviews come from actual users who are commenting on the real world experiences wherein they use the product. Many of these are fan-based and thus useless due to lack of substance. But a few are good, honest reviews that tell of genuine experiences with the product.
OK. In order to save my time and analysis, please list reviews that meet your criteria.
thanks
