Windows 7 will be officially introduced to consumers this Saturday (Nov. 7) at the Cyberzone in SM North Edsa. If you’re interested in acquiring a license of Windows 7 but don’t know which edition is the right one for you, here’s a chart to guide you.
If you’re wondering about Windows Home Basic, it is targeted towards netbook users and is similar to Home Premium but with the following restrictions:
- No Windows Media Center
- Partial Windows Aero functionality
- And you can only join Home Group (not create)
For the local prices (according to a Microsoft marketing rep):
- Windows 7 Home Basic – P8,000
- Windows 7 Home Premium – P9,500
- Windows 7 Professional – P15,500
- Windows 7 Ultimate – P16,500
There’s also a special promo that will last until Nov. 8 where you can get Windows Basic for only P7,777 at all retail stores.
Prices for 32-bit and 64-bit version of Windows 7 will be the same.
For multiple-license upgrades, it is currently available for businesses and not for home users. Will let you guys know if this will change.
Note: Prices and promo per store may slightly differ. In Octagon (SM Megamall), you can get the Home Premium for only P7,500 for a limited time.

For students in the US and Canada, there are cheap Win 7 Prof available for those with a US or Canadian university email address… For US Students it’s $29.99 (around Php 1500) while Canadian Students can get it for $39.99 (around Php 1700)… They also have promos for retail employees (those who sell MS products) and if they get the free MS online training, Windows 7 ultimate NFR (Not for Resale) versions for $10 (php 500)
I wonder if they have any similar promos in the Philippines…
thanks for mentioning those promos. i’ll bring them up in tomorrow’s launch.
It’s so much cheaper to get it from abroad than to buy Home Premium here for the *special discounted* price of 7.7k.
I was waiting for the commercial release for a long time but after seeing how much more expensive the local prices are – fuck that, pirated na lang.
hahaha. actually it went down to 7k for the home premium over the weekend sa villman.
i’m still waiting for a family pack promo for my 3 pc’s.
you can also ask someone from a school who’s a member of MSDNAA to buy one for you at a discounted price.
