Ming-Chi Kuo

analyst · reporting researched from Aug 30, 2023 to Aug 11, 2026

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

How the reporting has held up

28 of 32 right or partly right

Only details we could actually check are included here.

26 were right, 2 were partly right, and 4 were wrong.

26 Right2 Partly right4 Wrong
46 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 32 reports we could check, not all 85. 46 are things no company has answered, so nobody can be right or wrong about them yet.

Products they have reported on

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