}}Info Exame (or simply Info, stylized as INFO) was a high-popular Brazilian technology magazine. Its name was Exame Informática initially, a reference to its creation as the technology supplement for Exame, a business magazine. It was popular with technology non-experts because of its simple-language approach to IT-related topics. The headquarters was in Sao Paulo.[1]

Besides the magazine, the INFO brand was a reference in digital tendencies, sciences, culture and entrepreneurism. It is the inspiration for those who want to understand – in an instigating and good-humored way – the impact innovations have on our lives and our business.

The magazine ceased its publication in August 2015, becoming again a supplement in the Exame magazine. Its website now redirects to Exame website technology section.

Grade System

It is a system used by the laboratory's team to classify the products reviewed. This grade system was announced in 2002 and it was the official grade system until the end of the magazine:

  • "IMPECCABLE" (10): it's the highest level possible, but it has never been reached by any product in the magazine's history;
  • "Excellent" (9 - 9.9);
  • "Very Good" (8 - 8.9);
  • "Good" (7 - 7.9);
  • "Intermediate" (6 - 6.9);
  • "Regular" (5 - 5.9);
  • "Weak" (4 - 4.9);
  • "Very Weak" (3 - 3.9);
  • "Terrible" (2 - 2.9);
  • "Bomb" (1 - 1.9);
  • "JUNK" (0): it's the worst level that any product can reach. Fortunately, this level has never been reached before.
