Netgear Introduces the Nighthawk X8 AC5300 Wi-Fi Router

Nope. Because the vendor uses the retailer to distribute the item. So it's as if they bought it for $0.00. Thus allowing them to give an unbiased review. Who, who got it for free, would rate it anything less than 5 stars.

Well that's really sad. Aren't only those who made the transaction for the product allowed to write a review?

Nope. Anyone can make a review. Always have to take the internets with a grain of salt. PPL who bought x product will have be noted as Verified Purchase though.

So 90% of the reviews of this product on amazon.com are from people who admit to being netgear employees/friends and family, who got it for free. They all gave it 5 stars. LOL!

I see it happening a lot, it's quite an unfortunate trend especially with the Amazon Vines system. That said, we can generally get all the info we need from pro reviews. This router is on special for BF and I'm all over it for $300.
