Why run this thread!!! Chip stands nowhere near Digit in all categories. Its like comparing a heavy weight boxing champion with a middle weight boxer.

i am a subscriber to both Digit, Chip & PCWorld.in

Chip is the best (please don't mind) and even this team (Digit) has also run Chip too. and i am a subscriber since then.

1. I receive Chip & PCWorld on 3rd of the month and Digit on 14+ of the month. (Nasik has 36 hours courier deadline from Mumbai)

2. I get to catch some competitions on Chip & no competitions on digit even if there is one the cut of date is gone till it reaches me in Nasik.

3 . Content for Chip is better. I do not buy for the DVD as I have unlimited broadband and download what i need before it features either on any of them.

4. Customer care of Chip/PCWorld is better sometimes the DVD/CD accompanying the Mag is damaged. and it is a nightmare to get a replacement from Digit.

5. Chip reviews not only hardware which are easy to review but also software's. At least one good software is reviewed in every issue. These are very helpful, u really write a good review on the latest software unlike digit. PCWorld is new kid on block no comments on them.

6. I dunno y i subscribed Digit for 5 years.

Atranscript of a digit customer care mail I asked y the subscriber copy reaching us so late.
can any one dechipher the same for me (i will not give the name of the executive for obvious reasons)

"
Dear Sir,

Thank you for writing to Digit customer service.

We are to inform you that the copies are dispatched in the very first week of the month as of the news stand copies however the copies will go the concerned place in bulk and then to the courier. As all these will take sometime, the copy may reach a bit late as compared to the subscriber copy. News stand copies are bulk where as the subscrbers copy are distributed individually. We shall definitely try to deliver the copy as early as possible.
"

my final verdict no magazine is bad every one gives there full in making of a magazine. that we read every month. it is good i receive magazines at diferent dates. i can enjoy all of them for a month ;).

but i sincerly think that digit should pull it's socks and give better customer service.

Which articles? And what was wrong? Please support such statements or don't make them at all.

P.S. Using caps is the online equivalent of shouting. Just as in real life, nobody likes a screamer.

very clearly, most of us who are posting here have internet access. So, i dont think we should really care about cd/dvd contents (at least i dont). I get everything from the net and more than what cd/dvd can provide too. The only reason i buy mag is for its articles.

and very clearly, as many would agree, chip is far better in articles and international feel of presentation and paper quality. (Even fonts of text included!)

chip is all balanced mag... while on other hand, digit has many very good features but has many loop holes is quality and articles.

ps: i accept, chip forum is a crap. They must upgrade to new version of phpbb.

contentwise I feel CHIp is ahead of digit .... english is good & more simple too . Digit what I feel is too much colorful so much that it is a clumsy megazine .

Whatever, but I like Digit's touch of humour to its articles, particularly the news snippets. This month I was literally ROFLing after I read that letter some guy wrote to the editor for recruitment (teens say no to email). That was the most funniest job application I have ever read. Poor guy, he must be hiding now.

Almost every issue of Digit carries one news item on Apple or Mac and Digit leaves no oppurtunity to thrash it and ridicule it. Digit is an Apple basher for sure, and I m loving it.

I'd just like to clarify that we don't bash anyone out of malice or just for the sake of bashing.

They just ask for it :)

Not me... when I bash it's out of malice and for pure fun... And does anybody even get my humour?

Sometimes DIGIT, sometimes CHIP, sometimes COMPUTER ACTIVE & sometimes PC WORLD...it all depends on who's got what I am looking for in that month...my vote all of them...they all are good in their own right...but if I HAVE to pick only one...hmm..that is HAS to be DIGIT.

Well I subscribe to both and IMHO, contentwise CHIP is way ahead of DIGIT :rolleyes:

And the few times I had to interact with DIGIT customer care, I had nothing to complain about :cool:
