Customers are saying

Customers are impressed with the Vivobook's price, ease of use, ample RAM and storage, and lightweight design. However, many users cite concerns regarding the keyboard quality, particularly the key color and lack of backlighting, and report shorter than expected battery life. Slow boot times were also a common complaint. The large size of the laptop was mentioned as a drawback by some users.

    Good little laptop. Has everything we needed. We don't do gaming or watch much videos, but for basic household tasks, it is fine.

    I think it's a pretty good laptop. No Backlite keyboard which is a big negative. It does not cost much to have that on a laptop. Also, no SSD. But 1 TB HDD is a good substitute. It's very light. I had a previous 17.3" laptop and it weighed 10 lbs. Now they are all 5-6 lbs., and it makes them more portable. I prefer 17.3" laptops. Definitely get out of S-Mode.

    This laptop is comparable to any HP laptop I have previously owned. Have never had a problem and it runs effortlessly. The design is very good, sleek and the number of ports is very nice. I highly recommend ASUS products.

    I absolutely hate this computer. It is extremally slow and lags behind. The first time I used the computer, It took 1 hour to set up. The only benefit was the 1TB of memory, but it's not even worth it! I will return this computer today. My older HP performs so much better! Also, this computer is very heavy and the keyboard is difficult to see.

    I’m coming from a 4gb , 1tb HP laptop and was looking to Upgrade , saw this on sale for $445 After downloading all updates the laptop is smooth and faster ,the only take away is the keys are a shade darker than the laptop itself But for a budget computer I’ll say that a small trade off

    I like thís laptop because it is beautiful and quick enough for all my daily works, especially when I use engineering 3D CAD software. The silver key board is hard to read but a good typer might not need to look at it. Also I am using a wireless keyboard so this is not an issue anymore. Customer support is good to quickly resolve any question I have. Thank you best buy as always.

    As my young son now 13 grows this laptop offers the storage space to grow with him. High performance laptop that allows him to play for endless hours on the battery once charged. The screen is large and bright, overall a great device.
