PASIG CITY, Philippines (March 25, 2026) — ASUS today announced the availability and pricing of the Zenbook DUO and Zenbook S14 in the Philippines, strengthening its presence in the local market. Powered by the latest Intel Core Ultra 9 Series 3 processors, these premium AI laptops deliver exceptional performance with all-day battery life within thin, light, and durable designs. These features are made to adapt to the workflow of the modern Filipinos. Together with the newly unveiled Zenbook A16, ASUS redefines innovation and productivity with its 2026 Zenbook series.

Headlining the launch is the 2026 Zenbook DUO UX8407. Showcased in a fresh and durable full-Ceraluminum finish, the new Zenbook DUO retains its world-renowned five-mode versatility. Continuing its 14-inch dual-screen legacy, it is now more seamless and enhanced with 144Hz refresh rates and the latest ASUS Lumina Pro OLED displays. At its core is an Intel Core Ultra 9 Series 3 processor with a 50 TOPS NPU and an all-day battery, delivering a new standard of AI-powered multitasking.

Supported by an all-day battery, the Zenbook S14 makes working from anywhere possible without relying on outlets. Its 16-inch counterpart, Zenbook S16 UM5606, was launched earlier this quarter with an AMD Ryzen AI 9 processor and a 50 TOPS NPU while retaining the same 1.1 cm thin profile.

The unveiling of the Zenbook A16 UX3607 closed the celebration. Featherlight at 1.2 kg, it features an all-Ceraluminum design. Succeeding the crowd-favorite Zenbook A14, the Zenbook A16 comes with a 16-inch 120 Hz ASUS Lumina OLED display for more workspace. Now powered by the latest Snapdragon X2 Elite Extreme processor, an 80 TOPS NPU, and all-day battery life, it delivers unprecedented AI capabilities in a thin and featherlight package.

The next generation of the Zenbook series arrives in the Philippines, bringing premium AI laptops built for the modern Filipino.

ABC Tech Ventures Inc. Upgrades Educational Tablet to Capture more Filipino Market

Filipino-owned ABC Tech Ventures Inc. is now further expanding its horizon of sharing its expertise and in providing technology to Filipino learners, as it formally unveils its more advanced yet kid-friendly X8, X10, and X10 Plus tablets.

Arvin Arik Carranceja, the chief executive officer of ABC Tech Ventures Inc, said the newly launched X8, X10, and X10 Plus tablets were designed to be more sophisticated for kids with more refined tastes, on top of having a sleeker and more refined look compared to their brightly colored counterparts that are for younger kids.

"All tablets have increased durability to withstand the rigors of daily use by students. Although utilitarian in function, they still have the clean look of more high-end tablets and are available in four colors: charcoal black, azure blue, rose gold, and graphite gray," Carranceja said.

These higher-end models have dual cameras, an 8MP front-facing camera and a 13MP rear-facing one, which should be more than adequate for capturing and documenting anything that is needed for class. The X8 on the other hand has an 8mp rear camera and a 5mp front camera.

Each device is made to be used by a different age group, and the most obvious difference would be the size and storage capacity of the devices.

The X-8 -screen -measures 8.0 inches is best used -by grade s children and has .32GB of storage.

Corning -in with -an upgrade of 64GB of storage -and -a 10.1-inch screen is the X1.0, ABC Tech's offering for high school level learners. The next model upgrade, the XIO Plus, has similar features to the X10, but has a slightly larger screen at 10.4 inches with 8GB and 128GB of storage.

These tablets have specifications that make them the most effective for their target age range, and as the user's estimated education makes more demands of the software they use and the variety of applications they need, the models also increase in _power and processing capability.

This gradation of devices -has proven to -be effective and has paved the way for ABC Tech's _remarkable growth.

This year, the company hopes to-produce 100,000 t ablets and continue -to _build its reputation as the number-one choice for educational tools in the country.
