I would like to slam this device against a wall!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It's a war on patients with this machine every time I use it. At this very moment as I write my review, Bluetooth is dropping out every 3 or so seconds. All drivers are updated and troubleshooting tells me nothing is wrong. What is wrong is I CANNOT us this machine with Bluetooth. Using the touch pad proves to be another total pain in the ***! The touch pad is about 40% responsive, I almost have to pound on it, a tap does not work most of the time. Moving the pointer around the screen is sticky or won't move at all sometimes. Other times the pointer will fly off the screen where I can't find it because it won't respond to my touch. Every program I've attempted to use from the time I got this device home will at some point shut down, no reason, no explanation. Simply viewing my email client and the system will lock up with my only option it to soft boot. And more issues show up every time, I feel like I'm trying to solve a problem 75% where <25% barely being able to complete a task without frustration. I am truly disappoint with this machine and more frustrated that I paid many hundreds of dollars for something that < blanks> me off every I TRY to use it. Shame on you ASUS for such a product. Shame on you Best Buy for the price you charge and then charging more money to access tech support. Sincerely, Very Sad Brand New Windows Laptop Owner

Posted .Dear Valued Customer,
Do understand your disappointment if you are experiencing stability or performance isues with the laptop.
These issues are temporary during the initial WINDOWS setup and before installing cumulative WINDOWS Update, regardless what brand name of computer this may be. This may take a longer time depending on the network traffic from the update server and the stability of your high-speed internet service. Also, laptop will do several system reboot, black screen temporarily or restart during the update process.
Once initial setup and WINDOWS Update installation completed, system speed or performance will be optimized. In order to maintain optimum system stability and performance, cumulative WINDOWS Update needs to be installed periodically.
If you are accessing web applications, please make sure the unit has access to an established router and internet service is working properly since this will definitely affect system speed and performance. Also, clearing internet cache or browsing history will improve system performance.
Regarding the Bluetooth issue, please verify if the Bluetooth device is working properly since OS and drivers are already updated.
If you need further assistance, please email me at [email protected] and I would be happy to help. Or, you can speak to an ASUS live support agent 24/7 at http://bit.ly/AsusLiveChat.
Thank you for choosing an ASUS product.
Regards,

Excellent, compact but powerful laptop
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Asus zenbook is perfect! It loads quickly and even though it's a 14 " screen, it is big enough to see but small enough to be super transportable. I do miss my side number keys though, but I am getting use to the top row.

Great laptop for the money
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was in need of a new laptop and really liked the surface pro but the cost was a bit much for my budget. I came across this 14" Asus laptop and it has everything I liked about the surface pro but for a more budget friendly price.

Total Tech protection is worth it
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Disappointing. I bought this computer sight-unseen - on the recommendation of Best Buy sales personnel. They were not aware of some of the problematic features: As a total tech member, Best Buy was very responsive in trying to make the computer work and ultimately, in taking it back. I strongly recommend the geek squad.

AWFUL PRODUCT, MOTHERBOARD CRASHED AFTER A YEAR.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.DO NOT BUY THIS LAPTOP! I've had this for a year and 3 months. All I use it for is basic school work, nothing else. It completely died on me in the middle of my finals. I took it to Best Buy and they said it's an issue with the motherboard and it could cost $90 to ship to ASUS and $700 to replace the motherboard. This laptop is absolute trash. I contacted ASUS for assistance and they told me the same thing Best Buy did. I have 2 projects and 3 finals and the right thing to do would've been to replace the laptop immediately. I don't care that I'm 3 months past the warranty, there's no reason a laptop should burn out this soon. AVOID AT ALL COSTS. It seems like they only make products to last just until your warranty is up. I had a MacBook for 10 years and never had a single issue. I will never purchase anything from asus again.

Posted .Dear FrustratedStudent,
If the laptop will no longer boot up or it's just black screen, please do the following.
Verify if the AC adapter is connected properly from the laptop to a known good power outlet or AC source. Try another power source.
Try to press and hold down the power button to shut it down completely, just in case laptop is not in hibernate mode, wait for at least 10 seconds then power on. Please wait, if the system is applying updates in the System Registry, it will black screen temporarily. If it still black screen after a few minutes, at least 10 minutes, please repeat the power cycle process again. Also, please try to disconnect the power cable and let the unit drain for 24 hours to clear the memory. This will reset the hardware to default settings. After doing this, please reconnect your AC adapter, do not power on the laptop until the battery was charged
If you need further assistance, please email me at cl-rodel@asus.com and I will be more than happy to help. Or, call Product Support Hotline at: 1(888) 678-3688. Also, you can chat with an ASUS live support agent at http://bit.ly/AsusLiveChat.

Great value for a powerful laptop
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought for my college age son. He loves the SSD drive and how fast it boots up, and for what he uses it for the specs are great. Very thin and lightweight, too. Also got it for a good price!
