Same thing for reviewers, they will give a more favorable review to companies that coddle them as well as supply product for review.
The classic AMD defense. "Those reviewers were paid off by the big companies!"
I think I've seen/posted enough reviews of HiSense that they won't be on my short list for purchase.
