laptops Philippines

Based on recent launches in July 2024, notable new laptops in the Philippine market include the ASUS Vivobook S15, the HUAWEI MateBook 14 (2024), and the TECNO Megabook S1. These models represent the latest offerings from their respective brands, available through major online platforms.

As of a Q2 2022 guide, several excellent laptops were available under ₱30,000. Top recommendations included the Acer Aspire 5 (A514-54-31WL) with an Intel Core i3, 8GB RAM, and a 14-inch FHD display for ₱29,999; the realme Book with a 14-inch 2K display and similar core specs for ₱29,990; and the value-packed Infinix INbook X1, which started at around ₱21,499 for a model with an Intel i3, 8GB RAM, and 256GB storage.

Budget laptops in the ₱30,000 and below segment are generally designed for school or office work like document processing, web browsing, and media consumption. You can expect modern features like SSD storage, FHD displays, and capable processors like Intel Core i3, but they are not intended for high-end gaming. It's recommended to prioritize specs that match your daily tasks, such as sufficient RAM (8GB is good) and a comfortable form factor.
