journalist · 9to5Google · reporting researched from Dec 13, 2021 to Aug 5, 2026

We research the product details Li reports before companies announce them, then check what held up once there is an answer.

How the reporting has held up

42 of 42 right or partly right

Only details we could actually check are included here.

42 were right, 0 were partly right, and 0 were wrong.

42 Right0 Partly right0 Wrong
3 were moving targets

These described the plan accurately at the time, and the company then changed it. We count them as neither right nor wrong: calling them right would flatter the reporting, and calling them wrong would blame a reporter for a decision that was never theirs.

8 are still open

We have not counted these as right or wrong yet, because the product has not launched or the company has not answered the detail.

Counted over the 42 reports we could check, not all 54. 8 are things no company has answered, so nobody can be right or wrong about them yet. 3 are outside it because the plan itself moved.

Products they have reported on

Ordered by how much they have reported on each product, never by score.
