Reporter profile

Alex Heath

journalist · reporting researched from Dec 2, 2021 to May 22, 2026

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

How the reporting has held up

10 of 11 right or partly right

Only details we could actually check are included here.

10 were right, 0 were partly right, and 1 was wrong.

10 Right0 Partly right1 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.

11 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 11 reports we could check, not all 27. 11 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.

How we check reportingWe score only factual, checkable claims published before an official announcement. Opinions, speculation, and anything the official announcement does not settle are left unscored.Everything on this page is counted from reporting we reviewed, with a link to where each was published.
