Presenting the TechPowerUp Instagram Page

btarunr · Oct 25, 2018

TechPowerUp announced its new Instagram handle, and the retirement of its Google+ account. Instagram is all about pretty pictures that tell stories; and so our idea behind our Instagram presence is to bring you not just high quality exclusive pictures of the products we're reviewing; but also to get more personal with behind-the-scenes content - such as new product arrivals to our labs, unboxings, etc. Exclusive images from our breaking news coverage also makes it there. Instagram also lets us fuse our technical photography skills with creativity. Every post to Instagram is carefully curated (not automated), so it stays as organic and personal as possible.

You can reach our Instagram timeline on @techpowerupofficial (emphasis on "official").

Hopefully we'll get to see more than a bunch of next-to-PR level review shots of hardware.

Behind the scenes should be... behind them

Lightning · Oct 25, 2018

Looking forward to Wizz's selfies.

Nice, but I don't really have Instagram, so I can't really get super happy about this news. But it's good for the brand, Instagram could be a powerful tool in the marketing arsenal.

"as organic and personal ..."
LOL lingo dingo!
Good luck!

NB: no idea what instagramm offers beyond twitter, but internet life is all about new startups coming and going, right?

Instagram for friends and family (and for stalking The Umbilical Brothers) is great, but I really do not want product placement in it.

None of those are startups at this point.

Yeah that would be awesome.

Space Lynx · Oct 28, 2018

My life has officially ended... TPU is on Instagram... sigh... God save us all, instead of adding min fps to CPU benchmarks (which Intel still dominates at and provides a smoother experience) we are now busying ourselves with Instagram to make up for the gained time...

micropage7 · Oct 28, 2018

Fuels the i-generation which doesn't have time to read but has time to stare at cat videos.

Gadget pr0n!

natr0n · Oct 29, 2018

I associate instgram with mostly naked fake titty conceited woman.

micropage7 · Oct 29, 2018

i guess TPU needs to improve their shots, the page still like hardware ads, need more better full shots

Why waste time complaining about it then? lol. Clearly it's not a priority nor consideration.

Yes, I saw their post and this is really cool news, but there is one detail that makes me suspicious. The fact is that in 3 hours their post gained about 300,000 likes, while they have only 120,000 subscribers. It seems to me a little strange and suggests the idea that they just wind up the likes. It sounds like nonsense, but it seems to me that this is true.

That is easy to explain, Instagram has billions of users and you do not have to be a subscriber to give a like, you just have to have an account.
