The Inno Score, explained
Every score on InnoReviews is computed, not opined. We take each device's published specifications and typical benchmark results, normalize them against fixed reference ranges, weight them, and blend them into sub-scores and one overall score from 0 to 100. The exact ranges and weights are published below — if you disagree with a weight, you can see precisely how it moves the result.
1. Normalize. Each metric v maps to(v − min) / (max − min)clamped to 0…1 against its reference range. Wide-range benchmarks (like AnTuTu) use a logarithmic curve so mid-range devices aren't flattened. “Lower is better” metrics (weight, thickness, process node, TDP) are inverted.
2. Weight & blend. Normalized metrics are combined into sub-scores (Performance, Display, Battery, …) using the weights below. Sub-scores blend into the overall score using per-category weights. If a device is missing a metric, that metric is skipped and the remaining weights are renormalized — devices are never punished for missing data, only for weak data.
3. Scale. The blended 0…1 result is mapped onto a 20–100 editorial scale (so a hypothetical “worst possible device” sits at 20, the reference-range ceiling at 100), rounded to one decimal.
Data sources. Manufacturer spec sheets plus typical published benchmark results (AnTuTu 10, Geekbench 6, Cinebench, 3DMark, PassMark). Benchmarks vary by unit and firmware; we use representative figures and update them as better data lands.

↓ marks lower-is-better metrics · “w” is the metric's weight inside its sub-score · “log” marks logarithmic normalization. Ranges are periodically recalibrated as hardware generations move; recalibration recomputes every score on the site automatically.
