At Windows Central, we pride ourselves on our reviews. We often write very long, in-depth expert reviews. We also publish medium-length reviews that cover all the bases without delving too deep. And we post quick-and-dirty "rapid" reviews that get right to the point, so you can get on with your day.
And we review just about anything that's relevant to Microsoft and the Windows ecosystem, including PCs (laptops, desktops, 2-in-1s, all-in-ones, convertibles, towers, and everything else), phones, apps, games (Xbox and PC), and what seems like an endless array of peripherals and accessories for all of these things.
If it is Windows-related reviews you seek, you have come to the right page.
