New Microsoft 365 Personal and Family Subscriptions now available in Asia

Microsoft 365 is now available in Asia. It is a refresh of Office 365, which provides users with new artificial intelligence (AI), rich content and templates, and cloud-powered experiences.

These experiences are being rolled out regionally and will reach over 38 million Office 365 subscribers globally in the next few months.

"We want to continue to empower everyone to remain connected with those who matter inside and outside of the workplace. The Microsoft 365 Family and Personal subscriptions will provide users with innovative experiences that enable them to co-author, video chat, organize, and come together with friends and their families anytime and anywhere," said Rami El Bayadi, Regional Director, Microsoft Office Asia.

Users can look forward to two new Microsoft 365 experiences. Firstly, a new Microsoft Family Safety app designed to keep families safe across the digital and physical worlds. Microsoft will also launch Microsoft Teams later this year for users to stay connected with their family and friends. There will also be new features in Microsoft Teams that make it easier to connect, organize and collaborate with family and friends.

The new Office features have been rolled out to all existing Office 365 customers and Microsoft 365 Personal and Family subscriptions are now available worldwide. These include premium desktop Office apps, 1 TB of OneDrive cloud storage per person, 60 Skype minutes for calling mobile phones and landlines, advanced security features to protect users from malware and phishing attacks, ongoing technical support, plus all the new features and benefits announced today.

Microsoft 365 Personal costs $6.99 USD a month (Php349.00 per month or Php3,499.00 per year). For the best value, a family of up to six people can use Microsoft 365 Family for $9.99 USD a month (Php469.00 per month or Php4,699.00 per year).
