Ended up returning
I had this computer for maybe 2 days before I decided to return it. There were a few things that turned me off: - The speakers are positioned in such a way that as I was typing my metallic watch clasp would be pulled to the computer body - There was some bloatware I wasn't expecting installed on the machine - I need to type in 2 languages, one with a different alphabet than English. On installing it kept trying to download language packs I didn't need (for languages I wasn't using, too!) and I couldn't switch between the two easily like on every other Windows machine I've used. - It ran VERY hot at times. I only had it a short while but there was one point I remember that I couldn't have it on my lap because of the heat - On trying to wipe the device before returning it wouldn't finish the process because the language packs that kept trying to install would pop up and interrupt it. This computer looked really nice on paper but I was quite disappointed with it.

Fast laptop but cannot hook up 2 monitors
The HDMI slot works fine but you cannot hook up a second monitor via the usb-c port because the usb c is 3.1 gen 1. it needs to be a USB C 3.1 gen 2. So frustrating. My 3 year old ASUS laptop was able to hook up 2 monitors and I just figured this new laptop would be the ultimate replacement. Nope. I use my old laptop 90% of the time. Not sure I would get another ASUS because of the 2 monitor issue.

Really like it so far
So far I really like the set up of this laptop. I use it for college as well as a little gaming. I have had no problems with it besides sometimes when I turn it on it stays on the load screen and doesn't do anything. But that has only happened 2-3 times and it may have been from updating but normally there would be a loading icon when there was nothing for me. Besides those, it has worked perfectly for my needs, although it is a tad bit annoying to have to hold down "fn" when trying to hit anything on the top keys. Such as to brighten/dim keyboard lights, screen, or volume. My past computer did not require you to hold down an additional button for it to do those functions

Absolutely necessary for grad school!!
I'm going back to school for engineering and this 2 in 1 laptop is absolutely amazing. Ram makes multitasking a breeze. Tablet mode actually useful. Nice and smooth. Slick design... this is my first Asus and I do not think I'm going to be switching back to HP anytime soon.

Great and fast laptop.
I bought this to replace an older model laptop. It was easy to set up. It runs quiet, the screen is bright and the graphics great! Also very fast! Love the backlight keyboard. It was a little on the pricey side but isn't everything that works well. I'd highly recommend it,.
