About Verity Burns
Verity has been a technology journalist for more than 15 years, first joining Pocket-lint in 2008 as a staff writer, before taking on staff roles at Stuff, MSN and What Hi-Fi?, and embarking on a five-year stint as a freelancer.
In that time, she has covered the highs and lows across the breadth of consumer tech, and tested everything from smartphones and stereo speakers to robot lawnmowers and electric cars. She has a particular interest in audio and TV, however, which means she has spent a lot of time watching movies and listening to music and passing it off as work.
In 2022, Verity rejoined Pocket-lint as reviews editor, and is in charge of the site's entire reviews programme, ensuring she and the site's team are getting their hands on all the products that matter, to help Pocket-lint readers make informed buying decisions.
You'll occasionally catch her on BBC Radio commenting on the latest tech news stories, and always find her in the living room, recalibrating terrible TV settings at parties.
