History

Trusted Reviews was founded in 2003 by Hugh Chappell and Riyad Emeran as a response to the decline in sales of computer reviews magazines. Launched to provide a web only product for increasingly internet-literate users, access was deliberately made free to compete with paid-for magazine subscriptions. [1] The website covers the consumer technology market, focusing on mobile phones, TV and audio visual equipment and computing. [2]

In 2007, the-then IPC Media bought Trusted Reviews in order to expand its digital operations. [3] [4]

In 2010, Cliff Jones was appointed editor of Trusted Reviews. [5]

In 2012, Evan Kypreos was appointed editor. [6] [7]

In 2018, Nick Merritt was appointed Editor-in-Chief. [8]

Prior to Meredith purchasing Time Inc., Trusted Reviews was regularly featured as a contributor to Time Magazine. [9]

In 2020, Future plc acquired TI Media, the then-parent company of Trusted Reviews and then sold Trusted Reviews to Incisive Media. [10]
