- Apple chart confirms T3’s position as the UK’s biggest-selling tablet magazine
- Gadget brand’s hugely successful digital edition also in overall top 10
12/12/11 – Leading consumer technology brand T3 is the UK’s top-grossing Lifestyle app for the iPad. It’s also at no. 9 in the overall chart of all categories for 2011, beating the likes of The Sunday Times, Zinio and Empire.
The results of the year so far have been revealed in iTunes as part of the App Store’s ‘Rewind 2011’ feature, counting down the best and best-selling apps for Apple devices.
Luke Peters, Editor of T3 says: “T3 and the iPad are the perfect fit, both operating at the cutting edge of consumer technology. This news confirms what we already knew – that we’re the first choice for tech fans with an iPad.”
Launched in October 2010, the bespoke T3: iPad Edition has consistently been one of the most successful UK magazines on the iPad. Last month, T3 brought its enhanced digital edition and award-winning print monthly closer together with a single subscription rate giving access to both.
The brand’s multi-platform growth continues with the new-look T3.com, which reported a record-breaking figure of 1.34 million unique users in October.
Nial Ferguson, Group Publishing Director of Future’s Technology portfolio, says: “We’ve known for some time that T3 is the UK’s biggest-selling iPad magazine, but to rank so well in the 2011 chart alongside some prestige brands is a phenomenal achievement.
“We’ve no intention of resting on our laurels, either. As well as constantly improving our current offering, we’re looking at replicating our success across all manner of new platforms, from Android smartphones to the Kindle Fire.”
Future is the UK’s leading Technology publisher, with brands including T3, TechRadar, Gizmodo UK and MacFormat. It reaches more than 5 million UK tech fans every single month. Future brands were among the most popular on Apple’s new Newsstand when it launched last month – and have delivered more than 7 million app downloads since.
T3 issue 198 is on sale now priced at £4.25. An annual subscription (covering both print and iPad editions) currently costs just £27.49 – visit My Favourite Magazines. For more from T3 visit www.t3.com.
