Is this the cheapest Windows 10 laptop in PH?

In Laptops by Ramon LopezJuly 17, 2017Leave a Comment

IT could very well be true. The Sparc S1 Techbook is now available on Lazada Philippines, and it’s going for P4,999 (about $98) for a limited time. Its original price is P5,499 ($108), which is still crazy low considering the Techbook is a full-fledged Windows 10 laptop with what looks like — gasp! — backlit keys. If you’re looking to spend a little more money and you’re in demand of a computer which has a high specification to ensure that you’re able to do anything? I would look into the 13 in gaming ultrabook specs to see if these meet your personal requirements.
