Best laptop and audio deals from the Smart Home Tech Show 2025

Note: This article was first published on 13 November 2025.

The Smart Home Tech Show is back this year at Suntec Convention Center Levels 3 and 4. As the name suggests, there’s a whole host of smart home tech on display, but it’s also a good place to get a deal on a laptop. Look hard enough, and you’ll even find the odd audio product here and there. So, I went down to Suntec to scout out the promising deals you can find on the show floor (spoilers: if you’re looking for laptops, you’ll be hanging out at level 3 a lot).

The show is open from 13-16 November. Level 3 and level 4 open at 11am and 12pm respectively, with both closing at 9pm. And before you head over there yourself, be sure to check out our Tech Show Portal, where you’ll find brochures, guides and more coverage by my HWZ colleagues. 

Acer Swift Lite 16

Starting off with something a bit more pedestrian, the Acer Swift Lite 16 is by all means a no-nonsense laptop. The notebook is powered by an Intel Core Ultra 7 155U processor (with an Intel AI Boost NPU), with a 16-inch IPS display that a resolution of 1920 x 1200 pixels. The rest of the internals are pretty standard as well, with 16GB of LPDDR5 memory and a 512GB PCIe Gen4 SSD.

It’s going for a showroom price of S$1,399 (U.P. S$1,699) and you can find it at CR Group’s booth (308) on level 3.

Acer Swift X 14 AI

If you’re looking for something with a bit more oomph though, you can take a look at the Acer Swift X 14 AI. The screen real estate might be a bit smaller, but inside you’ll find an Intel Core Ultra 7 155H processor and an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4050 or 4060 depending on the SKU you get. On the outside, you’re looking at a 14.5-inch OLED touch panel with a refresh rate of 120Hz and a resolution of 2880 x 1800 pixels. 

The RTX 4060 models of the Acer Swift X 14 AI go on the show floor for S$1,949 (U.P. S$2,199) for 16GB of memory and S$2,029 (U.P. S$2,399) for 32GB memory. 

There’s also a more powerful variant that features an AMD Ryzen AI 7 350 CPU and an RTX 5060 going for S$2,699 (U.P. S$3,099), though a representative at the booth told me that the stock on that model isn’t as available as the RTX 40-series ones. You can find the Swift X 14 AI at CR Group’s booth (308).

Anker USB-C Hub 5-in-1

If you’re planning on getting a notebook at the show, you’d be remiss not to leave without some accessories for it too. For that, Anker has you covered with this 5-in-1 USB-C Hub. Here, you can find two additional USB-A 2.0 ports, and one USB-A 3.0. Plus, there’s a USB-C port capable of Power Delivery up to 90W and an HDMI port that can output at 4K@30Hz (these two will require your laptop to support Power Delivery and DisplayPort Alt Mode respectively to run optimally).

This USB-C Hub is going for S$49.90 (U.P. S$79.90) at Anker’s booth (8112) on level 4.

ASUS Zenbook A14

We previously covered ASUS’s Zenbook A14 back when it was released in February. Well, time flies, because now you can get it for a deal at the Smart Home Tech Show. The ARM-powered laptop packs a Snapdragon X X1 26 100 CPU with Qualcomm Hexagon NPU for AI workloads, and is lightweight to boot, coming in at just under a kilogram.

You can get it for S$1,549 (the image above is listing the original S$1,699 retail price) at the CR Group booth (308).

ASUS Vivobook S14 Flip

As it happens, we featured the ASUS Vivobook S14 Flip in our last Smart Home Tech Show list, but the config making an appearance here features an Intel Core i5-13420H processor, rather than the Ryzen CPU in last year’s show. Still, it remains a relatively affordable 2-in-1, with a 14-inch IPS touchscreen that has a resolution of 1920 x 1200 pixels and a 512GB NVMe SSD.

You can find the Vivobook S14 Flip at CR Group Booth 308 for S$999 (U.P. S$1,099).

JBL Go 2

Taking a break from all the laptops, I spotted a bunch of JBL Go 2 Bluetooth speakers going for a deal. The Go 2 might be a little bit old at this point, releasing in early 2018, but it’s still a decent option if you just need a simple waterproof wireless speaker to bring on days out, and don’t already have one. Battery life measures at 5 hours according to JBL. 

What’s great about this is the price, as it’s going for S$39.90 (U.P. S$69.90) for one unit, and S$60 for two. You can find it tucked away in a corner at CR Group’s booth.

Lenovo IdeaPad Pro 5i (Gen 10)

Lenovo makes an appearance at the show with the IdeaPad Pro 5i (Gen 10), a pretty powerful workhorse notebook. The specific config on sale at the show features a 14-inch OLED display with a resolution of 2880 x 1800 pixels running at a refresh rate of up t o120Hz, as well as an Intel Core Ultra 9 285H processor. You can find it at CR Group’s booth on level 3. 

A note on the price: Although Lenovo’s laptops only have their retail prices shown (or in this case, the S$1,749 price for this SKU on CR Group’s website), there are still reduced show prices, though you’ll have to approach the representatives to ask. I was told, however, that the Lenovo laptops on display can have discounts up to 15%, depending on the model.

Lenovo Yoga 7 2-in-1

The other laptop convertible to make it to the list, the two configs of the Lenovo Yoga 7 2-in-1 on the show floor feature either an Intel Core Ultra 7 258V or an AMD Ryzen AI 7 350 CPU. No matter which version you get though, both are of the Seashell colourway, which features a vegan leather exterior. When you open the laptop up, you’ll be greeted by a 14-inch OLED touchscreen, either with a resolution of 2880 x 1800 pixels for the Intel Yoga 7, or a resolution of 1920 x 1200 pixels for the AMD version.

The Intel Yoga 7 has a list price of S$2,299 while the AMD Yoga 7 retails for S$1,699, though you can approach the representatives for the show price. You can find it at CR Group’s booth.

Logitech Yeti GX and Yeti Orb

Ending off the list by going back up to level 4, the Logitech Yeti GX is a dynamic USB microphone that might be a little bit too gamer-y for this list, but it still looks pretty stylish if you make the RGB a little bit subtler. The GX has a supercardioid pickup pattern and a maximum SPL of 135dB. It’s also capable of recording at a 24bit/96kHz sample rate.

As for the Yeti Orb, it might be strangely-shaped, but as we reviewed a couple years ago, it’s still a solid pick-up-and-play USB microphone. You might notice a distinct lack of buttons on the outside; this makes setup real simple, but it does also mean you’ll have to adjust the microphone’s settings through Logitech’s G Hub software. It also has a cardioid pickup pattern.

You can find the Yeti GX going for S$169 (U.P. S$219) and the Yeti Orb going for S$59 (U.P. S$89) on the showfloor. Both of them can be found at Logitech’s booth (8148) on level 4.
