Comex 2014: More to see, more to buy

It's nearing the end of August, which means Comex is almost upon us once again. For those unaware, Comex 2014 will be held from 28 to 31 August at Levels 4 and 6 of the Suntec Singapore Convention & Exhibition Center. Doors will open from 12 noon to 9pm in this span of 4 days, and as always, admission is free.

Drawing over 650 exhibitors and over 800,000 visitors every year, Comex will undoubtedly fulfill your home entertainment, lifestyle electronics, office equipment, and travel technology shopping needs. From computers, smartphones, and tablets to digital cameras, A/V equipment, and wearables, you'll find them all here at Comex. In fact, to celebrate the tech show's 20th anniversary, Comex 2014 will be a bit different from other years. Lined up for you is a series of technology-related activities, including a fashion show, booth babes-related contests, a lucky draw, as well as an opportunity to snag some hot deals even before the show officially opens.
