BODY

 

8. Again, replace "BODY" with what you wish the section to be called, i.e.  Unboxing, Internals, Features, Testing, etc.  Feel free to split this into however many sections you feel appropriate for the amount of content on it. Some ideas for items to cover:

  • Inside the Hardware – for hardware reviews: close up images of the unit; in-depth information on what’s inside the unit including internal pictures if possible
  • Performance
  • Features
  • Extras – anything extra that hasn’t been mentioned already that might be considered extras; maybe comparison extras to what competitors include
  • Power – for hardware reviews; Analyze how much power the unit draws; comparison to similar products if avaiable
  • Testing/Benchmarks/Quality
