Customer Ratings & Reviews

This is a great computer. I like the privacy shutter. The sound quality is good. The screen is large and the colors are good and it seems bright enough. I have it at the half way mark. Track pad works great and I love the keyboard as it's like typing on a regular typewriter. I haven't noticed any lagging it's very fast. The keys are lit so you can type in the dark and it's quiet. I would recommend this to a friend.

This is my 5th Chromebook and by far the best. I currently have a Duet 3 as well and while I love that one for the portability, this ASUS is drastically faster. It has a great selection of ports, USB-C charging on both sides, backlit keyboard and pretty much everything you need for productivity and entertainment. It is obviously not super portable but I do take it with me on some trips when I need the screen size or just raw power. The only thing that I consider a negative is there is some backlight bleed on the edges of the display but it's only noticeable on dark screens. I still notice it from time to time while watching Netflix due to the black borders but it doesn't bother me.

Huge screen, great picture. My daughter is using this for her freshman year of college. She can easily fit it in her backpack and the battery last her all day for her work. Connectivity has been great everywhere she uses it. Keyboard size it great for typing the papers and doing whatever else she needs to complete. She loves the touchscreen and even more so the fact it can flip into a tablet.

This Chromebook has a nice large screen, and provides very clear definition. Does everything I need and more. Good price too so I am very pleased with this purchase. BESTBUY had a large selection and the salesperson helped me decide what to chose based on my needs, pointed out the pros and cons of several different options. That was very helpful as I am not an expert by any means.

With Widows 10 support ending soon, I needed an alternative to my Microsoft Surface Pro. This is my first Chromebook and so far this has been a decent replacement. Yes, there are some things this can't do, but everything that I need it to do, like browser based applications, it handles with ease. My one complaint was I didn't like how the case retains fingerprints/hand prints. I purchased a laptop skin and now it's fine and is a better reflection of my personality.

I absolutely love this machine. I have 9 Chromebooks, this one among my top 3 favorites. PC World didn't give the ASUS CX5601 a great review and I'm still trying to comprehend why. Super sharp screen, true to life color gamut and backlit keyboard. Keys are super comfortable to type on. Not all Intel i3 chips are the same. This one clocks faster than any of my other i3 machines. Lots of ports. Would absolutely recommend.

ASUS 16" Touchscreen Chromebook: A Large and Powerful Chromebook. I've been using the ASUS 16" Touchscreen Chromebook for a few weeks now, and I'm overall impressed with it. It's a great choice for anyone looking for a large, powerful Chromebook that can handle demanding tasks. Large and beautiful display: The 16-inch touchscreen display is gorgeous. It's bright, crisp, and has a great viewing angle. Fast and powerful performance: The Intel Core i3 processor and 8GB of RAM provide plenty of power for web browsing, streaming, and even light gaming. Long battery life: I've been getting around 8 hours of battery life on a single charge, which is great for a Chromebook. Sturdy and well-built: The Chromebook feels like it's made from high-quality materials. It's not the lightest Chromebook on the market, but it feels like it can take a beating. Touchscreen is responsive: The touchscreen is very responsive and makes it easy to navigate Chrome OS.

Good size, a bit on the heavy side, easy to use, love the screen,it's plenty bright enough in daylight. YouTube at 2160p is amazing. Seems to play games with no problem. The only thing that could be better is the sound, but headphones fix that.

Really nice Chromebook! My wife likes the way chromebooks function. And they do make high end Chromebooks that are really nice and this is one of them. I’ve always liked ASUS, and once again, they outdid themselves. My wife loves it and it has great sound, great picture, great response to the touchscreen, and overall just a really good laptop.

Great machine. The screen is big and the touchscreen is awesome!

This is my 3rd chrome book I love the screen size and the back lite key board. The speed is great also can watch movies on my amazon prime sound from the speakers was great does have a little weight to it tho I would buy again.

It does a great job and fits a lot of my needs. Pros: USI 1.0 stylus compatible. 16 inch screen. 8 GB ram. Camera privacy cover. Good speakers. Good screen. Uses an Intel processor (important for programmers). When on sale, it is a steal. Cons: Bloatware after connecting to internet (you can delete most but there is more than what is shown in store models (but less than a standard smart phone). How it sorts things when saving is weird. Copy and paste is not accessible via right click. Ctrl+C is the only way I've used so far. Chrome is forced upon your lower menu bar. Can not put apps on window screen, needs to be on lower menu bar.

It's look like new work very fast and very good battery backup

This is a great Chromebook. The only thing I could complain about is the weight. It is a little heavy but that isn't a huge deal for me. It is really responsive and I love the large, bright touchscreen.

Really nice and fast and it looks good holds battery life well

Nice size screen. Fast loading pages. Nice that it has a touchscreen.

Broke my screen on my Chromebook, and needed one quick. Wehnt in just to look, and this one was a great deal. When I got it home it is like the gift that keeps on giving. I did not look 100% at specs when I was in store, but it has wayyyyy more than I expected, and is a powerful beast!! This was a few weeks ago, but the associate that helped me took the time to find the right fit for me, and then some!!!! Thanks

I'm no stranger to premium Chromebooks. Over the past few years I've owned the Samsung Galaxy Chromebook, the 1st gen Asus Flip CX5 and now this one. As some background as to why I enjoy premium chromebooks: I am a student, writer and a creative professional. Meaning, I need something that I can type on for hours at a time and something that won't annoy my eye that's trained to pick out visual flaws such as pixelation or discoloration. Also being a gamer, Steam Link is a staple on all of my Chromebooks. Rimworld isn't going to play itself afterall. Coming from the Galaxy and last years CX5? This model is fine. The keyboard is comfy for my use and the screen while not the greatest I've used, isn't terrible. Compared to the previous year's model, the sound on this one is noticeably lackluster, especially where bass is concerned. Mind you, I'm not looking for something that will shake the walls, but if Barry White is singing in his lows, I want to hear his chest and not just his nose. Overall for a premium Chromebook, it's fine. Great if you're looking for a larger screen. Personally I don't plan to hold onto this one for long since Google announced a new line of cloud gaming Chromebooks earlier this month which I'll be checking out to potentially replace this one. The build quality on this Chromebook is middling, especially coming from the aluminum Samsung Galaxy and last year's CX5 that used higher quality plastics.

this asus chomebook 16in ( 2 in 1 ) touch i3 8gb 128 ssd is great for netflix ,email, and browsing the internet. it is great for watching movies.

I bought this for my mom as hers was definitely outdated, this has been the best laptop- even over my MacBook… the quality and usability for the price is unbeatable! 10/10 would recommend wholeheartedly.
