Can we talk about meditation gadget reviews focusing too much on specs?

I've been looking at reviews for those brain-sensing headbands. They all talk about tech details but hardly mention if they reduce daily stress. Shouldn't we care more about how these gadgets affect our mental state?

It's like every product review these days forgets what the thing is for. They'll measure a meditation headband's battery life but not if using it makes you any calmer. We get lost in numbers instead of asking if something actually helps.

Wow, @josephmurray, that's so true it's actually crazy. Who cares about the battery if the thing doesn't even help you meditate?

Maybe @josephmurray can review how calm the reviewers look while they test the battery.
