Ethan Carter

Ethan Carter spent the better part of a decade in consumer tech — three years in QA at a mid-size electronics retailer in Austin, then four years writing benchmark reviews for an enthusiast publication. He now analyzes tech product reviews, owner reports, and independent testing data from RTINGS, Tom's Hardware, and The Verge for Living Hive, with a particular eye for value at the lower price tiers. Based in Austin, TX, he still builds his own PCs.
