Best for You, if you want checked alerts when major models ship.
Our review
What it does well
- Listed recent model releases, and the prices we checked matched the official pages.
- A scheduled alert got the licenses and availability lists right.
- Left out a model that fell outside the time window, to the minute.
- Refused a fake release and would not treat a leaked picture as official.
Where it falls short
- One alert described how a small model runs, and that sentence was misleading.
Not tested yet:
- The reaction note a few hours after a release.
- A live alert for a release during the watch.
