I’ve used reviewmeta.com and its browser extension to get a corrected stars count after it filters out fake reviews. I don’t know how good it is still today but it’s something.
Comment on Amazon "search through reviews" is blindly just running an AI model now

It is tough to use Amazon for me. Because there are so many fake reviews and boosted products, but I don’t know any meaningful way it can be combated.

Thanks I’ll give that a shot.

Just don’t buy off Amazon. I buy electrical goods from other retailers because Amazon provided products are pooled with 3rd party products in their warehouses - which means lots of counterfeit electricals even if you select something sold by amazon directly. Not worth the danger of a fire in your home buying a shitty knock off full price off amazon.
All the other shit you can literally buy on Ebay - they’re the same sellers reselling the same chinese crap. The reviews are meaningless.

I did exactly this to get a Samsung tablet for a Christmas gift. Can’t trust Amazon for some products now.
