It’s Official: Dell Philippines is here!

dell philippines It’s now official — the Dell has landed in the Philippines. A per a media advisory shared with me, the launching of its consumer brand will be on April 10, 2008.

See snippet of the release below.

The long wait is finally over! Dell will officially welcome the arrival of its award winning consumer brands here in the Philippines. And we want you to be part of this momentous event.

We will celebrate the arrival of these products with a night of colors, action and entertainment on April 10, 2008 at the Prince of Jaipur at the Fort Bonifacio, Taguig City. Registration starts at 7:00pm.

Dell has been recognized as a global leader popular for producing a range of notebooks and desktops targeted to the corporate market. The announcement of its entry of its consumer brands in the local market is just an indication that Dell indeed listens to its customers.

The launch of Dell’s consumer range of products will be a visual feast of entertainment personifying the characteristics of these Dell brands.

It was only in late January this year when Dell announced its intention to enter the PC retail market in the country. Only indicates that they think the Philippines is still a growing PC market.

HP, Lenovo and Acer are already here. A new player is always welcome — cheaper laptops, bigger LCD monitors and bargain sales. *w00t*

Definitely great news! Not only because of the new jobs (tech support, repair, etc), but also because now we can buy high quality computers locally.

Well it’s about time. I wish they did it earlier when I was still in the Philippines. I would’ve gotten a Dell then. :D
