I would recommend this to a friendOk laptop, but has a few issues
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Works decent, I use it for my laser machines, YouTube, lightburn, photo editing. I upgraded the ram to 24 gigs vs the 16 it came with.. The battery life isn't all that great, even when just doing mediocre stuff. This laptop has randomly shut off on me several times, which is annoying. The processor temps aren't very good either, 60-90c at times just using youtube or using laser machine programs with the fan profile set too max speeds, when in my basement that isn't heated so its 40-50 degrees in my basement during the winter. Overall, it does things decent no real lag or studder issues, just gets hot and shuts off randomly...

||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So far ghis item has performed well. I did have to hire a tech to help set it up though.
I would recommend this to a friendA very good laptop
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Asus Vivobook was ordered for my wife to replace an Acer laptop that had issues with charging. While it came with Windows 11, replacing Windows 10 her preferred version, after some settings adjustments she has been generally happy with the new Asus. The unwanted popups that come with the Win 11 installation and the initial setup process that took hours to complete may put off some new or inexperienced users. The only minor issue I have noticed is the smooth finish of the laptop picks up every finger print.

I would recommend this to a friendVery Nice and Fast Laptop
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Quick, and very stable system. This was a good purchase with one exception: one of the memory cards was not upgradeable because it was hard-soldered in..., this was a concern, but it did take a 16 in the other slot to bring it up to 24GB total
I would recommend this to a friendMid computer
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very bad battery life, other than that it runs Dispatch and steam. But can’t actually run games like Fortnite or valorant. So this is not a good budget gaming laptop. When I’m at school I get 3-5 hours of just doing school stuff before it dies. Don’t recommend.
