For my blog assignment I did my porduct review on the apple iPhone 5 using the CNET search engine. The review would be very effeiceint if some one was comtemplating on if they should get the iPhone 5 or not. In the beginning of the review the writer gives you the positive and negative decriptions of the iPhone 5.The reader is given good feed back on the produc "The iPhone dds everything we wanted in the iPhone 4S: 4G LTE, a longer larger screen, free turn-by-turb navigation, and a faster A6 processor.  Plus, its top-to-bottom redesign is sharp,slim, and feather-light".
As well as what is not so good about the product"Apple Maps feel unfinished and buggy, Sprint and Verizon models can't use voice and data simultaneously. The smaller connector renders current accesories unusable without an adapter. There no NFC, and the screen size pales in comparison to jumbo Android models. The product review provides some product specifications such as when the product was released (09/21/12), it's weight (3.95oz), screen size (4in) and also compares the iPhone to other popular phones, letting the reader know what device they should purchase depending on their prefernces 'if you want a larger screen, go with a Samsung Galaxy S3.If you want better battery life, go with a Droid Razr Maxx". The review is based on the reviewers opinions and personal experiences, leading to their final decisions. The reviewers documneted that the  product is very sucessful and is a great phone to purchase "it's absolutely the best iPhone to date, and it easily secures its place in the top tier of the smartphone universe".

This Product review would also be a great help to someone that is thinking of purchasing a 2009 S550 Mercedes Benz.  The writer summarizes the positive features of the car which are better for the safety of the driver as well as a better drive"The new blind-spot warning system on the 2009 Mercedez-Benz S550 advises when lanes to the side are occupied. Adaptive cruise control and night vision are two very high-tech features. Massage seats ass greatly comfot,while the Airmatic Suspension smoothes out the road. The writer also mentions how spacious the car was and how the seven-speed-transmission followed every move perfectly. There are also negative features of the car that Cunningham mentions which are "iPod integration doesn't show the music library on the car's LCD. Live traffic reporting doesn't warn or impedind traffic jams. Poor fuel economy means a gas guzzler tax". Cunningham provides some product specifications as well such as the body style(sedan),the trim levels(S550) but unlike the first product review Cunningham does not compare the S550 to any other vehicles, but his information was accurate. After reading i determined that all of the Cunninghams information cames from on hand testing and I know this because he continues to write about the experiences that occured when he was driving in the car. Cunningham doesn't give a specific yes or no about whether the product would be good to purchase or not, he basically sais the car would be good in certain ways but also bad in certain ways for different people."If you can pay for the gas, the 2009 Mercedes-Benz S550 has many featurs to recommend it, and offers an incredibly comfortable ride, but done expect it to play well with your personal electronics.
