How did Ripple Device start?
Voice of Ripple Device CEO (Rahul Kayastha)"
When I was pursuing my bachelor’s degree in Malaysia, I had a five-year-old Dell that I desperately needed an upgrade from. They set my sights on the Helios 300 and instead of buying it in Malaysia; I thought I’d get it in Nepal since I was returning home soon. My introduction to the Nepali laptop market wasn’t the best. Over 50 percent than in Malaysia, a country where technology isn’t considered cheap marked prices here up. Researching more into the Malaysian market, I came across the OEM manufacturer, Illegear, a company assembling OEM laptops in the country. Malaysia is not necessarily known for its manufacturing, but here was Illegear making gaming laptops for the local market, a model that I saw working really well in Nepal".
With Nepal’s market and the lower operations and human resource costs, we realized the benefits of replicating the OEM model in Nepal. So, a year ago, Ripple Devices began with a vision of developing powerful gaming devices for a reasonable price to the local gamers. We sell laptops equivalent to their US prices, and this is because laptops made locally aren’t subject to the 35 percent tax that all the imported laptops are subject to. Two months ago, we released seven laptops of varying prices in the Nepali market; the reception has been phenomenal.
How are Ripple laptops assembled?
The Ripple teach like all laptop manufacturers do, by sourcing OEM parts. Laptops are such a complex technology that no one company or country can produce an entire laptop on their own. They rely on their OEM partners to provide them with the parts that they assemble into a finished laptop for the market. We do the same. We source all of our chips from Taiwan, the Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC); we get our screen, glass, keyboard, and chassis from Germany while we source our RAM chips and SSDs from Malaysia. So, everything comes from different places, and we as an OEM, assemble all the parts into finished market-friendly products like the Ripple laptops.
While sourcing these parts to Nepal wasn’t easy, the hardest part for us was to find OEM partners willing to work with us. Many OEMs want you to buy chips in bulk so making a deal with them, finding reliable partners and partners who will sell to you was the hardest part for us. Importing them to Nepal wasn’t as difficult but there was plenty of red tape from the government. Some laptop components are classified as dangerous goods, so getting the clearance for those was a bureaucratic mess; as a small business we also have a cap on the amount of money we can spend outside, around $35,000, and our laptops cost around $2000 each, which doesn’t leave us plenty of headroom to expand.
Products
There are plenty of imported gaming laptops available in the Nepali market. What makes Ripple laptops special? For bigger companies that make gaming laptops, I think their priority is on getting the best specs of paper. Gaming laptops do have premium parts but how those parts work with everything else matters a lot. I can say with confidence that a Ryzen 7 on a Ripple laptop would perform significantly better than on a Lenovo Legion. This is because we have our priorities straight. For us, value to performance is the biggest priority, which is why we never under power or under-clock powerful components to cripple their performance to get it to work in thinner and lighter chassis. For us, it’s all about performance so we overclock all our components at the factory and try to maintain the best thermal performance.
