Editorial policy

This is the promise Tech Junctions makes to readers: what we cover, how guides get written, how the site is paid for, and how we keep it honest. If we ever fall short of it, this page gives you the words to hold us to it.

Last updated . Written and reviewed by Aman Singh.

What we cover

Help for the TVs people already own, written for readers in the US:

  • Setting up the TV and connecting devices, speakers and antennas
  • Picture, sound and system settings
  • Apps and streaming on the TV itself
  • Troubleshooting, resets, and when a repair is worth it
  • Cleaning and care
  • Explainers on TV technology, and buying guides

Samsung, LG, Hisense and Insignia are covered in depth; other brands are added when readers need them. We don’t cover TV shows or channel listings, cable and satellite plans, projectors, or home-theater receivers.

How topics are chosen

Topics start with real questions: what people search for, ask in forums and send to us when their TV misbehaves. We look for questions that don’t yet have a clear, current answer, and for guides of ours that need updating.

No company can pay to have a topic covered, moved up the schedule or left out.

Who writes the guides

Aman Singh writes and reviews every guide. He picks every topic, researches and writes each guide, then reviews it in a separate pass after writing, before anything is published.

Every guide carries his byline. We don’t publish unattributed articles. See How We Test TV Fixes and Settings and our fact-checking process for how a guide is checked.

How we make money

Tech Junctions is not owned by, or financially tied to, any TV maker, retailer or streaming service. Reading the site is free.

  • Affiliate links. When you buy through some links, we may earn a commission from Amazon, at no extra cost to you. As an Amazon Associate, Tech Junctions earns from qualifying purchases.
  • Display ads. Ads on the site are served by Mediavine.
  • Two labeled placements. We sell a Sponsored Post and a Sidebar Display Slot directly to brands. Both are always labeled, and our Sponsorship Policy explains the rules.
None of this decides what we recommend.

Affiliate links

We would rather point you to a product with no affiliate link than to a worse one that has one. Details are in our affiliate disclosure.

Sponsorships

A sponsor may suggest the topic of a sponsored post and check facts about their own product before it’s published, but gets no approval over our opinions, can’t change anything else, and can never buy a recommendation in our guides. See our sponsorship policy.

Free products and samples

We don’t accept free products, review samples or loans from brands. We buy what we test or use our own. If that ever changes for a guide, we’ll say so clearly in that guide.

Conflicts of interest

Anyone who writes or reviews for Tech Junctions must tell Aman Singh about any personal or financial connection to a brand, product or store we cover. If there’s a conflict, that person doesn’t write or review the guide. If a connection matters to readers, we disclose it in the guide.

Sources

We rely first on the manufacturer’s or provider’s own documentation, then on our own testing and hands-on checks, then on reputable independent sources. Forums and reader reports are only leads, and we confirm them before we rely on them. The full order is on our fact-checking page.

Keeping guides up to date

We review every guide at least once every 12 months. If something changes in between, such as a product update, a recall, a price or policy change, or a reader report, we check the guide within 14 business days.

Every guide shows the date it was last updated, and that date is honest: we never backdate a guide or change the date without changing the guide.

Trademarks

Brand and product names mentioned on Tech Junctions are trademarks of their owners. Tech Junctions isn’t affiliated with or endorsed by any of them unless we say so.

Corrections

We acknowledge every report within 48 hours and fix confirmed errors within 7 business days. Errors that could affect someone’s safety are fixed first, as soon as we confirm them. Read our Corrections Policy.
