I like you're take on technology. It's not that super critical view on everything. You guys actually seem logical about your viewpoints.

I like the quality of the posts. Maybe a user ranking of things tested on the site will be nice.

Ooooh I want one!
I like Tested for all the info you guys give us, plus you all seem like really cool dudes.

I like the fact that you guys aren't the usual boring, emotionless drones that seem to infest most tech sites... Telling us the specs in monotone is all well and dandy but show a little EXCITEMENT about what you do, jeeze! Thanks for keeping us entertained as well as informed!

I love Tested for all the unique articles posted on the site and the even-handed tech reviews. Triple thumbs up!

Just like your sistersite Giantbomb i love the way you guys write about the latest tech. I esspecially like the test you guys do.

This site is quality over quantety, I'll rather have five great articles and vids insted of ten okey articles and vids.

What I like most is you guys have personality and are not so formal all the time, in other words keeping it real. I like how you give sneak peak reviews but then follow it up with more in-depth reviews after you actually use it for a while. You guys show your excitement, disappointment and frustration.
I like the more personal approach you guys do as well. Some examples include “Mail bag time”, respond to comments, test in your own homes, movies of your own dog, your own personal use review, and so on.
As for what I don’t like I can’t really think of anything.
I look forward to the videos, articles and podcasts every day!

I come to tested because of the great personality of the editors. Also all the great video content.
Keep it up!
Keep it up!

I don't like that the Q&A posts are called "Mailbag". I am simple and this confuses me as I briefly think it will be an un-boxing of some sort (blame Ryan Davis).
Really the only complaint I can muster, keep up the good work.

I like the helpful community willing to comment on my silly tech problems. Also, as a college kid, I LOVE free stuff.

I like Tested because it tastes like bacon.
itchyeyeson July 30, 2010 at 1:38 p.m.
I think my favorite part of Tested is the "what's in your bag" video features.
soralapioon July 30, 2010 at 1:38 p.m.
Honestly, I come here for the Android coverage. It's rare to find a site that is impartial and fair towards both phone platforms. Usually the writers are zealots for one and actively bash the other. Of course it helps that you're all good dudes, which is a key thing these days: we can get the same stories pretty much anywhere, so at least I like to go where they're written by dudes I like.

I've been reading Tested ever since my Tech teacher told me about this website. I really like the way the writers write their articles. Not only does Tested bring you news on new technologies, it also talks about "how to" do things with these new technologies.

Can't wait for the mobile site and the wiki to be launched, but that's really all I can complain about.
Nikralon July 30, 2010 at 1:41 p.m.
I love how this site gives me so much information on everything that I'm interested in. You give me information that I could never find anywhere else and that's what keeps me coming back!
