Netgear Nighthawk Pro Gaming XR500 vs Samsung Connect Home (2017)

The Netgear Nighthawk Pro Gaming XR500 managed to impress reviewers from two reliable and unbiased sources that conduct their own hands-on testing, namely techadvisor.com and Expert Reviews. It performed great in their roundups - it earned the "Best For Gamers" title from techadvisor.com and "Best for gamers on a budget" from Expert Reviews, which makes it a product worthy of consideration.

Moving on to the Samsung Connect Home (ET-WV520B): it was unable to reach the very top of any roundups from sources that conduct reliable and unbiased testing. Nonetheless, it still managed to impress reviewers from a number of such sites, like Techradar, PCmag, mbreviews.com, CNET, and MakeUseOf, enough for them to include them on those lists.

Lastly, we averaged out all of the reviews scores that we could find on these two products and compared them to other Wi-Fi Extenders on the market. We learned that both of them performed far better than most of their competitors - the overall review average earned by Wi-Fi Extenders being 7.1 out of 10, whereas the Netgear Nighthawk Pro Gaming XR500 and Samsung Connect Home (ET-WV520B) managed averages of 8.0 and 7.4 points, respectively.

Due to the difference in their prices, however, it's important to keep in mind that a direct Netgear Nighthawk Pro Gaming XR500 vs. Samsung Connect Home (ET-WV520B) comparison might not be entirely fair - some sources don't take value for money into account when assigning their scores and therefore have a tendency to rate more premium products better.
