How the signal works

The signal score

A score out of 100 for how well reviewed a product is next to others of its kind. It rises with positive reviews and with how many there are; negative and mixed reviews take points off. The best in each category scores in the 90s.

So a handful of glowing reviews can’t beat a product lots of people like. No sponsored placements.

Positive

Score 7.4. Like its predecessor, a convincing super shoe with solid performance at all distances. Mainly for light, neutral runners who can hold at least sub-3-hour marathon pace.

Blog · Believe in the Run – Meaghan Murray, Thomas Neuberger · summarized

Positive

A sneaky favorite fast-day shoe for one tester's long Boston workouts. This time the tweaks paid off: a legitimate race-day weapon that no longer lives in the Rocket X's shadow.
