Question 1

Is BestInXR free to use?

Accepted Answer

Yes. BestInXR is free to use with no paid tier. Browsing the directory, comparing products, and reading every article costs nothing, and there is no account required.

Question 2

Does BestInXR accept payment for rankings or placement?

Accepted Answer

No. BestInXR accepts no payment for placement, ranking position, or coverage. Every ranking is built from criteria published in advance, and no vendor can pay to appear, rank higher, or have unfavourable coverage removed.

Question 3

What does BestInXR cover?

Accepted Answer

BestInXR covers six categories of the XR industry: developers, manufacturers, platforms, software, headsets, and smart glasses. It also publishes news, original research, interviews, and conference listings for AR, VR, MR, and smart glasses used in business.

Question 4

How does BestInXR decide its rankings?

Accepted Answer

Every ranked list on BestInXR states its criteria at the top of the list, before the rankings. Rankings are specific to a use case rather than absolute, so a headset ranked first for classroom deployment may rank differently for field service, because the criteria differ.

Question 5

How current are the specifications on BestInXR?

Accepted Answer

Every specification on BestInXR carries the date it was last verified. Specifications come from manufacturer documentation wherever possible, and where sources disagree, both figures are shown rather than one being chosen silently.
