Got deal, got talk! GDGT! =)

Happy National Day! As with special holidays, you can bet there are good deals to be had. With that in mind, here are some National Day celebratory tech deals to brighten your day further. So go forth and shop to your heart’s content.

 

ASUS RT-AC5300 Tri-band Wi-Fi Gigabit Router

Especially for the National Day Celebrations, ASUS is offering a selection of items on Lazada with a special discount of $52 off! You can have a look at the entire selection here, but we’d go with the RT-AC5300 Tri-band Wi-Fi Gigabit Router. It allows you to manage it remotely via mobile app, and comes with a built-in anti-spyware and anti-malware utility that actively scans incoming data packets for potential threats. It’s going for S$417, down from the usual of S$469, so head over to Lazada and get it now!

 

Alienware Aurora Gaming Desktop (R5)

If you’re looking a new desktop, check out the Alienware Aurora R5. It’s designed to allow for tool-less upgrades to graphics cards, hard drives and memory, and supports up to dual 300W graphics cards so you can really max out your system if you want to. The base configuration is usually $2,599 for a system with Core i7-6700 processor, 16GB memory and 1TB hard drive with NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070 graphics card, but just for National Day, Dell is offering a $500 discount, so you can get it for S$2,099. Find out more of the machine here, and head here to buy it!

 

Casio Fukubukuro Lucky Bag

You don’t need to be in Japan to get your own Fukubukuro. This NDP, Casio has special ones just for you! In the same spirit of Fukubukuro from Japan, Casio’s goodie bags will retail for a special price of $188 but contain items with a total value ranging from $353 to $655. Some of the mystery items that might be packed into these bags include: the G-Shock GA-710 watch, a printed G-Shock t-shirt, a camouflage canvas tote bag, a G-Shock tumbler, and even a Casio FR10 camera! The lucky bags will only be available while stocks last, so grab them from G-Factory stores island-wide now!

 

Sennheiser Urbanite XL

Did you know that Sennheiser has its own direct-sales online store for Singapore? Well, the store is live now, and there’s a special 52% off discount for the Urbanite in conjunction with National Day. That means you can now get them for just S$129 instead of the usual of S$269, a great price for these solidly built headphones that are both light and comfortable, and provide a solid bass response with good dynamics.

That’s for a 12-month subscription, which means you’re paying just $2.50 a month for five digital magazines, or $0.50 per magazine! That’s even less than what you’d pay for a coffee, so why wait?
