Tom's Hardware, a trusted source of independent reviews, news, and analysis in the PC hardware and semiconductor industry for over 25 years, is excited to announce the launch of Tom's Hardware Premium. This new subscription service offers exclusive, in-depth content and tools beyond the free material available on the site.
What's Included with Tom's Hardware Premium?
Tom's Hardware Premium is designed to provide a "backstage pass" for those seeking a deeper perspective on PC hardware and semiconductor industries. Key features include:
- Dedicated news analysis posts that reveal deeper insights and context behind tech headlines.
- Subscriber-exclusive features and interviews, including hardware roadmaps and uncut Q&A sessions with industry executives.
- Access to Uptime, a members-only newsletter providing email-only insights.
- Use of Bench, a new benchmarking tool that lets subscribers explore detailed test results and compare CPUs, GPUs, laptops, and other hardware across multiple categories.
What Remains Free?
Rest assured, the Tom's Hardware content that users have come to know and enjoy, including news, reviews, deals, guides, and feature articles, will remain free. Existing pages, such as the CPU and GPU hierarchies, and detailed product reviews, will also remain accessible without a subscription.
Pricing and Availability
For a limited time, Tom's Hardware Premium is available at an exclusive introductory price for one full year of access. After this period, it will return to the standard annual rate. Pricing starts at $69 (or £51) annually during limited-time offers, rising to $99 (or £73) after. The pricing information for Tom's Hardware Premium can be found on the subscription page.
Getting Started
To read Tom's Hardware Premium content, including access to premium features such as Bench, users will need an active Tom's Hardware Premium subscription. An account will help users keep connected with all free-to-consume Tom's Hardware content and is the best way to keep reading Tom's Hardware interruption-free. After reading five articles within 30 days, there will be an additional registration window, requiring users to register for a free Tom's Hardware account.
The Benchmarking Tool: Bench
Bench is a new benchmarking tool that covers categories like CPUs, GPUs, and laptops, allowing users to explore individual test results for a product and compare it directly against others in the same category. The ongoing refinement process of Bench includes populating and adding products, refining benchmarks, and linking to reviews.
The Beta Launch
Tom's Hardware Premium is launching in Beta, which means some elements may be tweaked in the future. We appreciate your understanding and feedback as we continue to improve and expand the service.
Exclusive News Analysis
Tom's Hardware Premium offers exclusive news analysis, revealing the story behind the story, and going beyond the headline. The maintenance of Bench is time-consuming and requires a large amount of data, making it exclusive to Tom's Hardware Premium members.
