I like Asus so much we have two in the family. The first was a Q504U two years ago and my wife liked it so much I bought this Q505UA for me. I went for 256GB hard drive and 12GB memory. I wanted speed and it is fast. I didn't think I would want the fingerprint reader but I am impressed. I love it. The wifi works fast. I like the backlit keyboard. I would love for the keyboard to stay lit. The weight is light for it's size. It's actually user friendly.

I'm a writer and I also administrative several discord servers. Been having to travel across the country to visit sick family member, and my old tablet wasn't cutting it for running my servers OR creative writing during downtime/air travel/airport waits, etc. My decade-old laptop was a monster, too, and carrying it around was legit killing my back. So husband got me this ASUS laptop and I LOVE it. It's powerful enough for my purposes--word processing, internet, discord, even light gaming, like this thing will run World of Warcraft on lower settings--but it's feather light and easy to trudge through airports with. The touch screen feature is nice, although I don't use it as much. But from what I have used of it, it's robust and responsive, for people who are looking for that kind of thing. Beautifully runs Windows and Office, and does pretty good with lighter gaming. It's fast and it does the job. For people who travel a lot and need something that will handle most work applications, this little laptop is worth it. We got it in a Memorial Day sale special price, too!

I purchased this laptop for a coding boot camp and wanted something that was easy on the wallet but also able to give me enough ram and storage for all of my coding needs. Not only did I get that but because the laptop is using a SS, it boots up a lot faster and barely makes any noise unless it is getting hot and the fan starts to kick in (which still isn't that loud to begin with). My only real complaint so far is the speakers are a little muffled since I guess they are under the actual laptop, which isn't giving it enough room to project sound. Also the battery only seems to last a long time if all your light settings are on low. I think at most with full brightness on everything you'll get a good 4-5 hours of usage.
