• Before we started reviewing, many of these EEG devices where not on the market yet. Then, one after the other appeared on the market.

• We do not know of users who say that they use these 8 – 32 channel EEG devices sold on Aliexpress. Do OpenBCI users already use these devices and keep silent about it?
• The quality of Aliexpress stores varies strongly. We made good experience with the communication of the Sounds Good store and delivery time. Sounds Good Store 94.0% Positive Feedback, 1405 Followers. The store sells mainly electonics components.
• The Aliexpress Wonders store sells an updated WIFI shield, but it has Wonders Store 75.0% Positive Feedback.

As long as no one confirm to use these modules, it is a risk, because no one knows anything about the quality of these products. They appeared after we started reviewing. If these devices are of good quality, they will be taken over by other shops. But after all we have reviewed and experienced, it is a good idea to have our own Gerber files and a manufacturer we can trust, to make our own tests and our own quality control.
