The Golden Computer Arcade, the Golden Computer Centre, New Capital Computer Plaza and Wonder Building Shopping Centre are computer malls specializing in selling computer products in Hong Kong. There are all kinds of computer hardware and software of the latest technology at attractive prices. These malls have enjoyed a high reputation over the past 20 years and have become the preferred place to buy computer hardware and software products for Hong Kong’s army of computer geeks. The Apliu Street Flea Market nearby offers a wide range of telecommunications products, A/V equipment, brand new and second-hand electrical devices, lighting fittings as well as electronic and hardware parts. Due to such features and characteristics, Sham Shui Po is also known as the “Digital Hub” of Hong Kong.
Hong Kong Computer Shops
The most popular establishments are Wanchai Computer Centre (MTR A4 exit), 298 Computer Zone at 298 Hennessy Road, Wanchai, Windsor House in Causeway Bay (MTR E exit, floors 10-12), Mongkok Computer Centre, and Golden Computer Arcade and Shopping Centre in Sham Shui Po (MTR D2 exit). A Mongkok megastore is Digital Pavilion (Shop 25, Basement 2, Langham Place) where you’ll find high-end video mobile phones, speakers, LCD displays and assorted hi-tech gadgetry for home entertainment. Apple Computer shops have been in decline in Hongkong lately but there are some good vendors on the 12th floor at Windsor House like the briskly run Designer Group Company Apple Centre where staff speak decent English. They have a new outlet in IFC.
I’ll tell you places in HK in the evening when I reach home and talk to dad. But if you’re expecting prices in HK to be like SG then you are badly mistaken. The prices at most places would be at best 10% less than India. Not worth it IMO.
