    The ASUS cx14 Chromebook has been a great addition to my family's laptop collection. My son had an OLD ASUS Chromebook that lasted years. It just recently stopped charging (user error). But my son has LOVED having an updated version of his favorite computer ever. One of the best parts of this computer is the price point, you can't beat that price for such a fastt and efficient computer. We love the color of this computer and that fact that it can fold open with ease. The ports also are nice for all the things you need to plug in! We also love that the battery lasts "forever" according to my son. He can do all his work and watch his shows without having to charge in between. We also found it to charge extremely quick when plugged in. It's very light which is ideal for my son, but so far very sturdy. I. Not worried about it breaking or crack even when he is at his craziest. Plus the screen feels huge! All in all I highly recommend this Asus Chromebook for your work or personal use!

    Excellent low-cost Chromebook for basic computing

    GOOD - Very affordable - Nice display - Good selection of connectivity ports BAD - No backlit keyboard - Low RAM and storage capacity limit it from heavy productivity use TLDR This version of the CX14 is a great example of what a Chromebook offers over a low-budget Windows laptop. It has good-enough performance for simple computing tasks of email, typing up documents, and browsing the web. The battery life is decent, it can run many Android applications, and it has a 1080p LED display. Most importantly, it's cheap. DETAILS "Premium" Chromebooks make about as much sense as gold-plated running shoes. Yes, it can be done, but it's usually not a good use of the money. If you're going to spend several hundred dollars on a laptop, why not get one that can run a broader range of software and that doesn't lose half its capability when it's offline? Conversely, ChromeOS' still runs well on the lower-spec hardware found in the sub-$300 range, whereas Windows' higher demands means significant trade-offs ( and probably significant frustration at the sluggish performance ). As mentioned, the hardware specs in the CX14 are meager, and purposely so to reach the low price point. The Celeron CPU is only a dual-core with a base frequency of 1.1 GHz. Storage is a 64 GB eMMC drive ( which is slower than a SATA or NVMe SSD ). System memory capacity is only 4 GB. Normally, this would be a severe hindrance in a laptop, but ChromeOS isn't overly demanding and system performance is more than adequate. In typical use of having a few web browser tabs open, and maybe one extra application, I didn't notice any slowdowns or sluggish behavior. If you regularly have lots of browser tabs open ( say, 8 or more, particularly if they're demanding sites ), you will encounter some slowdown due to the limited RAM. Before then, you'll get a notification prompting you to allow unused tabs to go to sleep to conserve system resources. The 64 GB system drive has about 40 GB available. It's not a lot, but again, it's sufficient for basic use, especially if you're utilizing cloud storage services. While many cheap laptops come with sub-par displays with low resolution kor horrible viewing angles, Asus uses a good 1920x1080 LED display, even on the base model CX14. It's not a touchscreen on this model, but that's not a problem. It also has an HDMI connection, a 3.5mm audio jack, and two USB ports ( one type-C with DisplayPort, one type-A ). All in all, this Chromebook offers a lot for its low price. Ideally it would have a second type-C port, as using the charger monopolizes the single one available unless you use a dock. It would also be nice if the keyboard was backlit. But these are minor complaints. As is, it makes a great laptop for children and young students, or anyone who wants simple computing capabilities above that of a tablet without spending a lot of money.

    ASUS Laptop Screen issues

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I am thoroughly disappointed with this ASUS laptop, which I purchased at Best Buy less than three months ago. After such a minimal amount of use, the screen has completely failed and gone blank, making the entire device unusable. It is unacceptable for a brand-new computer to suffer a critical hardware failure so quickly, especially when it is still well within the warranty period. This lack of reliability is a significant waste of my time and money, and I strongly recommend against buying this model if you need a dependable laptop.
