A:AnswerI was also unsure if this laptop came with 8 or 16 gb of ram but mine arrived with 16gb of ram. I would make sure you get the model labeled as Q420VA.
A:AnswerI had checked this very model just yesterday (8/31/23) and it had the same the SKU: 6543526 (Model Number Q420VA-EVO.I7512) and the Title had showed 16GB. Although, the price was the higher one, not discounted as it is today.

A:AnswerIt's a standard 1 year warranty. If you have problems within a year of the purchase date, you contact ASUS and give them your serial number and they will walk you through diagnostics and what to do to get it repaired.

A:AnswerYes. It will power 2x displays. It would actually support 3 through HDMI and both Thunderbolt ports, but then you wouldn't be able to charge. However, you can always use a USB-A to HDMI adapter to get a third if you needed it.
A:AnswerI tried 2 different N-TRIG pens with this and both worked fine. One was the Microsoft Surface Stylus and the other was a Bamboo stylus. If you look for something compatible with MS Surface, you should be good to go.
