Tech Insider Network

Since 2016, the Tech Insider Network has been inviting Best Buy’s top reviewers to join the program. The members of this program test products in exchange for honest, educated reviews. Once a member has posted a review on the BestBuy.com product’s page, the review is marked with a badge so it is easily identified by other purchasers.

The Tech Insider Network is an invite-only program for top reviewers of the Best Buy website and is based on the trust they have earned from writing accurate and insightful reviews. Our members are enthusiastic about new tech products and want to share their experiences and expertise with others. Tech Insider Network members may receive access to products that are not yet available on the market and their opinions are among the first to be posted on the product’s detail page. Best Buy does not influence the opinions of Tech Insider Network members, nor do we modify or edit reviews.

The product selections are normally based on latest technology, niche products, and household names. Tech Insider Network members do not receive these products for free. If a member chooses more than $600 worth of products in a calendar year, Best Buy will deliver the IRS Form 1099-MISC. The delivered 1099-MISC form will include the complete total of products they have received during the fiscal year
