Q: Can I upgrade the ram to 32 Gb?

A: The memory on the ASUS model S5606MA-DS96 is not upgradeable. The laptop comes with 16GB RAM soldered to the motherboard and there are no expansion slots.

Q: Does this OLED screen have touch screen capabilities

A: No, it's not a touchscreen laptop.

Q: Is it possible to increase the RAM to 32GB on this model?

A: The memory is soldered onto the motherboard and is not upgradeable.

Q: Does it comes with international warranty?

A: Yes, it comes with an international warranty.

Q: Is this touchpad is glass or plastic like Q533? I have the Q533MJ but want to upgrade to this one. Can you tell me the difference between FHD 60hz Lumina versus 3K 120hz Lumina on this one?

A: The touchpad is made of high-quality plastic. A 120 Hz display refreshes 120 times per second, while a 60 Hz display refreshes 60 times per second. A higher refresh rate can make the screen appear smoother and more natural to the human eye.

Q: Does this have a fingerprint sensor and if not why?

A: For affordability, this was not implemented on the hardware design for this specific model.
