Choose by what you need
Peripherals, the largest section
Peripherals is 57% of this hub (594 of just over 1,000 products), and 356 of those are ink and toner cartridges. The rest is 63 printers, keyboards, mice, webcams and 21 UPS units from €19.95 to €829.95. Search a cartridge by the printer model number rather than the cartridge code, because the same cartridge is sold under several codes and the product pages list which printers each one fits.
Laptops and tablets
57 products, with laptops from €289 to €2,869 from ASUS, HP, Acer, Lenovo, Dell and Gigabyte, plus tablets and Kindle e-readers. Start here when the purchase is a complete machine rather than a part. The €289 to €600 band covers browsing, email, Office and streaming; past about €1,200 the money is going into a discrete graphics card, and that only pays back if the machine will run games, video editing or CAD.
Computers and monitors
99 products: 61 monitors from €84.95, 20 monitor brackets, plus desktop towers, all-in-ones and mini PCs. This is the section for a machine that stays on one desk. A second monitor is also the cheapest change most home offices can make, and it does more for a working day than a faster processor does.
Components and software
117 products: CPUs, RAM, graphics cards, motherboards, cases and power supplies, for building a machine, upgrading one or repairing one. Check what the motherboard accepts before ordering anything that plugs into it, because memory and processor sockets are not interchangeable between generations.
Data storage
113 products: 23 SSDs from €55.95, 17 hard drives, 9 enclosures, memory cards, pen drives and NAS units. An SSD is the upgrade that changes how an older computer feels, and the old mechanical drive can go into an enclosure and keep working as a backup disk.
Laptop accessories
67 products: bags, docking stations, stands and replacement power supplies. Two of these are worth planning for rather than buying in a hurry. A replacement charger has to match the laptop’s connector and wattage, not just the brand. A docking station turns a laptop into a desktop with one cable, which is what makes a single machine work for both home and office.
Laptop, desktop, all-in-one or mini PC
The same work can be done on five types of device, and the type decides more about living with the machine than the specification does.
| Type | What it is | Suits | Trade-off | From |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Laptop | Screen, keyboard and battery in one unit | Students, hybrid work, anyone who moves between rooms or between home and office | Costs more for the same performance, and little inside can be upgraded later | €289 |
| All-in-one | The computer built into the monitor | A tidy desk, a reception counter, a shared family machine in one spot | Screen and computer are replaced together, and upgrades are limited | See the range |
| Mini PC | A tower shrunk to about the size of a book | Office desks, a second machine, anything driving a screen in a shop | Uses laptop-class parts, so less performance per euro | See the range |
| Tablet | Touchscreen, keyboard only if you add one | Reading, browsing, note taking, a second screen | Not a replacement for a machine used to type all day | See the range |

What to check before you buy
Work out the cartridge cost before choosing the printer
The printer is the smaller half of the decision. An inkjet starts at €36.50 and cartridges start at €10.45, and a household that prints regularly will spend more on cartridges in the first year than on the machine. Before ordering, look up what that model’s cartridges cost and how many pages the manufacturer rates them for, then divide one by the other. For anything beyond occasional home printing, a tank printer or a mono laser costs more at the till and less per page.
Buy storage and memory for the life of the machine, not for today
These are the two specifications that decide how long a computer stays useful, and both are awkward to change later on a laptop. 8 GB of memory and a 256 GB SSD is a working minimum for browsing, email and Office. 16 GB is the sensible choice for a machine expected to last, and it is usually the better place for €60 than a slightly faster processor. Saving €40 by taking 4 GB is the one decision that reliably turns into a slow machine within a year.
An SSD is the cheapest upgrade that changes how a computer feels
A computer still running a mechanical hard disk as its system drive will feel slow whatever else is inside it, and no amount of memory fixes that. A 240 GB SSD costs €55.95 and takes a working machine from a minute of start-up to a few seconds. Keep the old drive: in an enclosure from the same section it becomes a backup disk, which is the other thing most home machines are missing.
Match the monitor to the work, not to the specification sheet
For office work, 24 inches at Full HD or 27 inches at QHD is the pairing that keeps text sharp at a normal viewing distance. An IPS panel holds its colour when you look at it from an angle, which matters on a shared desk. A high refresh rate changes nothing outside gaming, and a curved panel earns its price on an ultrawide screen rather than at 24 inches. Measure the desk first: a 27 inch monitor needs about 70 cm of depth to sit at a comfortable distance.
Heat is what shortens a laptop’s life here
A laptop draws its cooling air from underneath, so a machine used on a sofa, a bed or a cushion in August is running hot with the vents half blocked. The usual signs are a fan that never stops and performance that drops after twenty minutes. Use the machine on a hard surface, keep it out of direct sun on a balcony or by a window, and clear the vents of dust once a year. A cooling pad is worth it for a gaming laptop under sustained load and does very little for a machine used for email.
A UPS is for the equipment that must not stop
Size it by adding up the wattage of what has to stay on, then choose a rating above that total. A mini UPS from €19.95 keeps a router and a fibre modem alive, which is what matters when someone is working from home and the power dips. A line-interactive unit covers a desktop long enough to save the work and shut down properly. Double conversion units, up to €829.95, are for a server, a till or anything that cannot drop a transaction. Note that a UPS protects against interruption rather than guaranteeing hours of running.
Buying locally is a service decision, not a price one
A cross-border order can be cheaper on the day. The difference shows up in month fourteen, when a machine needs a repair and the question is whether it is carried to a counter in Attard or boxed and shipped abroad at your cost and risk. Everything sold here is covered by the AtoZ Electronics Hassle-Free Warranty with service and spare parts kept in Malta. Weigh that against the saving before ordering a laptop from outside the country, particularly for a machine someone depends on for work or study.

Frequently asked questions about computers in Malta
Where can I buy a computer in Malta?
AtoZ Electronics sells computers in Malta online at atoz.com.mt and from two showrooms, at 70 Pitkali Road, Attard, and the PAVI Shopping Complex, Triq Manwel Dimech, Ħal Qormi. The range covers laptops, desktops, all-in-ones and mini PCs, together with monitors, printers, cartridges, components and storage, over 1,000 products in total. Delivery is free across Malta and Gozo on orders over €50, or collect from either showroom.
How much does a laptop cost in Malta?
Laptops at AtoZ Electronics run from €289 to €2,869. An entry machine at the bottom of that range handles browsing, email, Office and streaming. Most study and work needs are met between €600 and €900. Above roughly €1,200 the money is going into a discrete graphics card and faster memory, which pays back for gaming, video editing and CAD and makes no difference to office work. All prices include VAT.
What is the difference between an SSD and a hard drive?
An SSD has no moving parts, starts a computer in seconds rather than a minute, and survives being knocked while it is running. A hard drive costs less per terabyte and is the better choice for storing large quantities of files that are not opened every day. The practical answer for most machines is both: the SSD as the system drive, the hard drive for storage. AtoZ Electronics stocks 23 SSDs from €55.95 and 17 hard drives in Malta.
Can I buy ink and toner for my printer in Malta?
Yes. AtoZ Electronics stocks 356 ink and toner cartridges in Malta from €10.45, for Canon, HP, Brother and other brands. Search by the printer’s model number rather than the cartridge code, because each product page lists the printers that cartridge fits. It is the largest group of products in this section, and it is worth checking cartridge prices before you commit to a printer rather than after.
Do I need DDR4 or DDR5 memory?
The motherboard decides, not the buyer: the two are physically different and will not fit each other’s slots. Check the motherboard model, or the laptop model, before ordering. DDR5 is what newer machines take and it is faster; DDR4 remains the correct part for older systems and is not a downgrade in one of them. On capacity, 8 GB is the working minimum and 16 GB is the sensible choice for a machine that has to last.
What size monitor should I buy for working from home?
24 inches at Full HD or 27 inches at QHD covers most desk work, and monitors at AtoZ Electronics start at €84.95. The constraint is usually the desk rather than the budget: a 27 inch screen wants about 70 cm of depth to sit at a comfortable distance, and less than that leaves you too close to see all of it at once. If the desk is shallow, a 24 inch screen on a monitor arm recovers both the depth and the space underneath.
Does AtoZ Electronics sell UPS units in Malta?
Yes. AtoZ Electronics stocks 21 uninterruptible power supplies in Malta from €19.95 to €829.95, covering mini units for a router, line-interactive units for a desktop and double conversion units for a server or a till. Size one by adding up the wattage of the equipment that must stay on and choosing a rating above that figure. A UPS is designed to bridge an interruption and allow a controlled shutdown rather than to run equipment for hours.
