We are no longer in a rush for new gadgets.
In the nine months of 2026, the median receipt for the purchase of a laptop in Russia was 53,011 rubles - 5% less than a year earlier, the Czech index calculated. The number of purchases also decreased by 9%.
But they began to repair equipment more often: the average bill for services rose by 11% to 2,603 rubles, and the number of requests increased by the same amount.
Buyers are less and less inclined to see the point in replacing a laptop if the old one copes with everyday tasks. Demand is moving towards budget models - they are often used for schoolchildren and simple homework.
