Q: The ASUS website lists the UX331UA-DS71 as having an i7-8550U processor. However best buy lists the product with an i5-8250U processor. Which one is right?

A: Best Buy description is wrong. It should be i7-8550 as per Asus website. This is the spec for the i5-8250 and should be $799 although the model number is for the i7-8550. Both are the same specs with that crucial difference. Best Buy needs to clarify as it's conflicting information and customers know exactly what they're paying for. I tried to do a Price Match but the customer representative didn't understand my question so I terminated the call.

Q: Is this gold as described, or grey as pictured?

A: The trim is gold as is the branding. I was only able to find one YouTube video for this design for it's release in India but it *is* in English. https://youtu.be/idXs_7PRI9U
