About Kakaku Product Awards 2025
The
Kakaku Product Awards are now celebrating their 20th year, and are unique in their judging process. Unlike many awards that rely on sales figures or expert evaluations, this award prioritizes feedback from real users who have actually used the products. This means that the winners are determined by user reviews and data analytics, ensuring a fair and unbiased evaluation based on performance, user satisfaction, and value for money. There are a total of 15 categories and 53 different sections, spanning audio, personal computers, smartphones, and home appliances.
