WFH warriors who’ve weathered most of the past two years with wobbly desks, laggy PCs and flickering monitors: this year’s COMEX IT Show is your chance to secure your upgrades at attractive prices.
We spend hours on end slogging away at our desk, so the Tableholic C-Desk (from $348) is an affordable way to squeeze little physical activity in our ultra-busy schedules. It sports a nifty manual-winding mechanism that neatly tucks away under the tabletop, though you can also opt for the motorised E-Desk at $568.

Complete your setup with APOL chairs that are all going at $398 (U.P. $428). These gaming chairs come in three sizes for a better fit: the Sphinx for svelte builds, average-sized Kraken and larger Behemoth.
With your furniture sorted out, tech upgrades might help unlock extra productivity. The 34-inch Prism+ X340 Pro ($689, U.P. $1699) is an ultrawide monitor that offers plenty of room for all your apps and tabs. It also sports a super-fast 144Hz refresh rate for maximum smoothness, which is also curved for comfortable viewing even when up close.
To balance out the productivity with some play, grab the gaming-ready Logitech G502 Hero ($69, U.P. $129) at 45% off. For those constantly on the move, check out deals of up to 50% off on Anker accessories. Promos include the Anker PowerPort Atom III ($49.90, U.P. $89.90), which can juice up to four gadgets – including your laptop – simultaneously.

We’re still dealing with video calls aplenty, so the JBL Tune 220TWS ($119, U.P. $169) will be a godsend as you enjoy the extra freedom of a truly wire-free setup at $50 off. For a more affordable option, the Skullcandy Jib Wireless ($19.90, U.P. $54.90) might sort you out for much less.

Between the slew of online lessons, research for school projects and YouTube binges, there are plenty of reasons to secure a personal laptop for your child. COMEX IT Show offers up plenty of cost-effective solutions that check all the boxes, like the Lenovo IdeaPad 3 Chromebook ($299).
For a Windows-based option, there’s the aesthetically pleasing fabric-clad Avita Essential 14” ($399) or the Lenovo Ideapad 1i (from $458).
Rake in bonus points at Challenger, with the purchase of gadgets like the iPhone 12 mini at $998 (U.P. $1,149) for V$119, or the Logitech G610 Orion Blue ($109, U.P. $209) mechanical keyboard for a bonus V$20. You’ll be able to redeem these points for other items like AirPods Pro (V$149), Google Nest Mini (V$39) or TP-Link Tapo C210 (V$25).

Take it a step further and kit out your very own smart home with gadgets like the Eufy Smart Lock Touch & Wifi ($349.90, U.P. $499) that lets you unlock your front door with your fingerprint. Couple that with the rotating Eufy Security Cam ($89.90, U.P. $129.90) for extra safety just in case.
Cycling has been all the rage in Singapore these days. For those looking for a convenient way to navigate while speeding along, the Gearlock MF bikemount ($39.90, U.P. $59.90) lets you easily mount and dismount your phone with a twist.
