Score: consensus of the positions in 5 test sources, 100 = top of every source. Every model on this list is recommended by at least one test source. The bottom of a top list is still worth half the points, and a model named by only one source cannot score above 50. Only models sold in the United States count. Method.

Other models we track

Models without a ranking table of their own: none of our test sources recommends them, or their dock type has too few models for a fair comparison. We do track their prices.
