Battery or charger issue after just a few months
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This one seems to be charging well. The previous one we bought in this same model is losing it's charge too fast after only a few months of real use. We took it back to Geek Squad, who sent it to ASUS, who said there was nothing wrong with it. I love this unit, other than the charging issue.

Asus problems
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I just bought the laptop less than a month ago. I have only been using it for adobe illustrator. A week ago I got a blue screen error. Then the computer wouldn’t fully turn on with the keyboard lit and black screen. It started working again for a few days, but then started doing the black screen again. I got it to turn on and checked everything, updated bios and graphics, ran diagnostics which said nothing was wrong. Right after I get the blue screen again. Turned on and off and now back to the black screen It’s a brand new laptop having these major issues already I had an hp for years and never had these problems
