Prompt, affable help.

I accidentally bought twice the magazine; upon realizing it, I sent an email explaining the situation and received a prompt, affable response, returning one of the payments. A very positive experience. The reference is:
Case Ref # 00482107; the agent was Divya.

Why I like Pocketmags

The choices with Pocketmags are almost infinite and any subscription is delivered on time and can be enjoyed immediately. Some people do prefer the paper version and I understand that totally; but I live in Australia and it takes weeks before I get the paper version. It’s also ‘out of date’.
Another advantage is that I can keep my copies for years without taking up much space. Lastly but certainly not least is the fact that no trees are needed to produce the magazine although other resources are.
All in all, I am very happy with Pocketmags!

Mobiography - the source for mobile photography

This mobile photography magazine is an amazing resource for information and inspiration. Six times a year you can count on articles featuring individuals that take mobile photography seriously and share their passion to inspire the subscribers. In addition there are always lessons and articles about tools that keep you current with what is going on in the world of mobile photography. Mobiography is a great resource for anyone with an interest in mobile photography. A big thank you to Andy Butler for creating this magazine.

ImagineFX Magazine (Print + Digital Subscription)

ImagineFX Magazine - Great content. Great quality. Nice option to read/download "full resolution" vs "reduced resolution" variant of an issue, saving time and data when on mobile. Nice option to choose between digital only (cheaper) vs print subscription (nicer :) ), the latter in my case including digital access. Great free access to digital back issues (i.e. to lots of issues released b e f o r e subscription). If you don't live in UK you have to wait fairly long until the first post-subscription printed issue will arrive, but that's ok. Overall great value for professional quality content at fair subscription models/renewal models. Recommended!
