Most reviews we'll see this week will be the same old thing. Not a must upgrade but the best iphone yet. Cue the usual apple puppets who post reviews with perhaps only one or two that will actually comment on what matters. Which one still has any credibility? Too negative and Apple takes their invite away.

Ars Technica is the best. After that, there's a big drop. So many vie for worst review. It's too hard to pick just one.

Gizmodo has been forgiven. They have been invited to the past few Apple events. They probably get review units again as well. Probably a Tim Cook decision. Steve was the one that really held the grudge against Gizmodo.

I feel like they have just been getting their content about the Apple live events and review products from other sites. I remember visiting their page for a liveblog this last time and they mentioned they didn't get an invite. Maybe I'm mistaken.

Apple may have forgiven them but I haven't. Not because of the premature review, but for writing quality and blatant click-bait headlines.
