How to read the comparisons

Smartphones and tablets are compared using the suppliers’ entries in the EU database EPREL and our overall rating from eight values. Laptops, dishwashers and vacuum cleaners carry the score of the French repairability index, TVs and washing machines the French durability index; both are scores under French law, not EU scores. The better value is in bold, “typical” is the median of the category (our own calculation).
