Here are our five standout picks from the items that will be going on discount during the Super Tech Expo:
Bose QuietComfort 35 (Rose Gold)
Retail Price: S$499
Discount Price: S$399
With (almost) everyone working from home these days, it can be a less than conducive environment for those wishing to study, or hold meetings over video calls. Which is where Bose QuietComfort 35 comes in, with its noise-cancelling capabilities to ensure your activities will not be affected by the chatter and hubbub happening around you. Furthermore, it also comes with up to 20 hours of battery life which is more than enough to last you through a whole day of work or studying without needing to be charged.
ASUS ZenBook Pro 14
Retail Price: S$2,198
Discount Price: S$1,898
Regardless of whether you are a content producer or business professional, having a second screen will be a helpful tool to improve your productivity. With ASUS ZenBook Pro, you have an affordable alternative to the bigger ZenBook Pro Duo that still offers you a functional second screen for multitasking purposes. It also comes with a 10th-generation Intel Core i7 processor, 16GB LPDDR3 RAM, and 512GB PCIe NVME M.2 SSD for ultra-smooth performances on your ZenBook Pro.
Dyson V11 Absolute
Retail Price: S$999
Discount Price: S$829
If you have been meaning to get a new cordless vacuum cleaner then look no further as the Dyson V11 Absolute will be going on discount during Shopee’s Super Tech Expo. The V11 Absolute comes with an LCD panel which allows you to easily change between the three different modes offered by the vacuum: Eco (for better battery life), Medium (for general use), and Boost (for when you need that extra bit of power to clean something particularly difficult). It also shows you how much battery you have left. The Boost mode on the V11 Absolute, coupled with its improved suction power, means that the Dyson vacuum is good for cleaning both hard as well as carpeted surfaces.
Staying at home more means you’d also need the right tools to have the house cleaned in half the time!
Dell UltraSharp 24-inch Monitor
Retail Price: S$359
Discount Price: S$323
Perfect for those looking for an inexpensive display, the Dell UltraSharp 24-inch Monitor comes with Full HD display with 1920×1080 resolution with 60Hz refresh rate. The monitor also claims to have 99% sRGB and 85% DCI-P3 colour gamut coverage out of the box, making it suitable for those looking to use it for photo and video editing. To top it all off, the Dell UltraSharp monitor also features a height-adjustable stand, which is capable of rotating 90-degrees, enabling you to use it in vertical mode. Its low price also means you can easily buy more than one to add to your PC setup.
You can consider combo-ing this with the ASUS ZenBook Pro 14.
Nintendo Switch / Switch Lite Console
Retail Price: S$759 (Switch), S$399 (Switch Lite)
