I live in Hawaii.

I am about to buy a new laptop.

I was wondering if you guys could tell me which store in Hawaii （ US online ） or Japan

you bought it from ？

why Japan is better and why US （ Hawaii ） is better. I would be very happy.

Please do so ！

It is better to buy in the country where you live, mainly in your main country of residence.
The reason is warranty. If you buy something in Japan, even if it is from the same manufacturer, if something goes wrong Hawaii ・ in the US
it is not covered by the warranty. The reverse is also true.

It doesn't matter if the keyboard is in hiragana or not. If you want,
you can find hiragana keyboards here, too.

A, most things you might take on a trip, such as a PC, are now DUAL VOLTAGE. （ I think it says something like 100v-240v. ）
Electric toothbrushes such as Sonicare can be bought in either country.
So there is no problem with the voltage whether you buy it in Japan or in the US.
However, sometimes the shape of the plugs of American products are different
so you may need a conversion plug for that ？ or so.

Halo-san A

Thank you very much for your reply.

I was thinking that it would be better to buy something in Yen that can be bought in Japan because of the weak Yen and strong US dollar, but

if a PC bought in Japan is not guaranteed in the US, it is still better to buy in the US.

Very helpful.

I am of the school of thought that I buy things from Japanese manufacturers in Japan. Many major electronics stores in Japan will answer your questions in detail, so you don't have to worry when you buy, and when problems arise, you can solve them by doing a Google search in Japanese.

I understand that many countries are involved to make one product, but I still buy products from Japanese manufacturers in Japan to support Japan because it used to be the main production in Japan.
