MySmartPrice’s BOT (Best of Tech) Awards has returned for its second edition. For over 13 years we have helped you make the right buying decision but with BOT awards, we want to let you choose the ‘Best of Tech’ by simply casting a vote. This aligns with our motto, “by the people, for the people.”
This time, we have come up with more categories (45+) and nominees (300+), and more excitement. From smartphones to home appliances, you get to use your power and choose the winners.
The winners across these categories will be announced on January 15 based on your votes, so, you have a week to vote for your favourite product.
MySmartPrice Best of Tech Awards: How We Chose the Nominees
Our nominees are the devices launched after January 5, 2024, and before December 15, 2024. While we have put up the nominees based on their specs, our reviews, and our popularity, we have given brands a chance to nominate the products too. So, it’s a mix of both our expertise and the brands’ urge to score a win.
However, it’s ultimately YOU who would decide the best product across categories. So, let’s check out the categories and the nominations below.
