The all-new SCMP Tablet Edition is built as an HTML5 web-app, with a full content upgrade upon its previously free IPad™ edition. The highly visual and interactive design maximizes the reading experience on a tablet format, giving more multi-media content such as slide shows, rich media infographics and embedded video, continual updates 24/7, greater ease of social sharing, more interactivity, including instant conversation commentary within the app, and the ability to completely personalize the news according to each user, allowing for customized navigation whether the reader is left or right handed.
The SCMP Tablet Edition is also designed to provide advertisers with a range of new and highly visual advertising formats, and being HTML5, is content-searchable and downloadable with an internet connection, providing instantaneous news updates.
“We’re proud to bring our readers the news they want, wherever and however they want it” remarked Robin Hu, Chief Executive Officer of SCMP Group. “Some readers prefer a lean-back, interactive, yet fully updated multi-media news experience. For them, our Tablet Edition makes news easy-to-access and visually appealing, but also fully up-to-date.
“The new Tablet Edition adds to our very successful revamped SCMP.com, our mobile edition on m.SCMP.com and our NewsPulse app, enabling our readers to enjoy our news the way they want it.”
The SCMP Tablet Edition is available through subscription, although users can trial up to 8 free articles per month.
