14 Online Gadget Stores for Your Tech and Gaming Needs This ECQ

Electronic devices may not be as essential as food and medicines, but we need them to survive the lockdown nonetheless.

Gadgets enable us to work from home and keep us busy or entertained while on quarantine. More importantly, they help us stay connected to loved ones who are away from us.

You don't have to wait for what seems like forever to get a replacement for your broken laptop or mobile phone. You can order from an online gadget store and have the item delivered or pick it up directly at the shop.

For your home office or gaming needs, take your pick from this list of legitimate online gadget stores in the Philippines that let you shop from home during the quarantine.

Final Thoughts

Before ordering from an online gadget store, check first if there's any restriction implemented by your homeowners association or local government unit on deliveries of electronic products. If you own a car, your best bet is to drive to the shop's physical branch to pick up your order.

If your order will be delivered to your home, expect difficulty in booking pick-up services and delivery delays due to the quarantine. You'll be the one to pay for the cost of pick-up/delivery service if you book a third-party courier.

To avoid inconveniences, you can wait until the ECQ is lifted before buying from an online gadget store—if the item you need is not that urgent.
