DPReview has been saved by an acquisition. Here’s everything you need to know.
After more than 25 years, DPReview was to be shuddered by Amazon, its parent company, without any forethought on how the site’s content would be archived or supported.
It was a blow to the digital photography community, from which DPReview got its name.
Today’s announcement changes all of that as Gear Patrol, a site for product reviews, guides, and how-to’s, has acquired DPReview from the mega-corporation.
So, what’s changing, how is Gear Patrol, and what will happen to everything we thought was lost?
We have some answers.
What Is Gear Patrol?
According to its site, Gear Patrol is the definitive buying guide for gearheads with experts who review and curate the best in cars, tech, home, outdoors, style, and watches.
With the DPReview acquisition, it seems the team behind GP will be expanding its audience to more than just those in that niche tech-savvy community.
