Great Bang for Buck
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great bang for your buck laptop. Honestly didnt realize how small the laptop was compared to a 15.6" The bezels are really that small almost making it edge to edge of just screen. Performance is great for certain productivity task but with just 8GB of RAM it could get overwhelmed if you try to do too much at the same time

Meh... nothing special. Not ready for user
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Only bought it because it was $500 (price matched from the Microcenter). This has been the only great thing, aside from me having a functional laptop at least. No special specs differential otherwise from other basic laptops. Worth it for this price. Not for regular... *** See if other stores have it cheaper so you can get it price matched! Starting off, had the worst experience with the shipping. Delivery was set to be 2 days from purchase, which sounded great. It wasn't available in the store for another week so shipping was the best option. The day of, I waited to make sure I don't miss the delivery, even called the customer service to confirm delivery was possible that day at 8:30 pm (timeframe was till 9 pm). There was no update in the link, and there was a message saying it may not update right away. The rep reassured me it would be a Best Buy van who delivers it directly from the store and they do work till 9 so I'm still within the timeframe, and of course, reassured many times delivery was still good to go. This was not the case and I later learned that the laptop was not even stocked at the warehouse. Fast forward to almost a week, delivery date kept being delayed, with no other update on the tracking page. Once I called in to change it to a store pickup, as usual, the rep brushed it off blaming 3rd party delivery services that BB can't control. Good thing he happily changed it to a store pickup, which went seemlessly. Super quick check in & pickup. Then started the list of laptop issues: - OS wasn't installed correctly. I couldn't even changed the date without laptop bugging out with the constant warning issue. - bios randomly pops up + now every time Windows has an update --- this may not be the laptop issue itself but it's annoying having it say the OS is corrupt, which was an installation issue - KNOWN ZENBOOK ISSUE: when laptop goes to sleep after time out or when we set it to sleep, after turning it back on, the laptop shuts down by itself within a few mins. We have to restart it again. - Mouse pad is not sensitive in some areas. It's more active when using the bottom of the pad, rather than the top. The cursor can lag at times. I didn't get GeekSquad warranty nor called in to Asus yet... Both pointless options at this point because I will have to go without my laptop for the time being. BestBuy wouldn't let me replace the laptop without having GeekSquad check out the issue. In the time I go to BB, I could just reinstall Windows myself, which should clear up some of the issue. And this is what I decided to do. If the bios popup/random screen blackout issue persists to the point of major annoyance, I will definitely call in. If I'm going to spend a couple of hundred dollars on something, I'd prefer it to not have any immediate issues. Even though I can do basic troubleshooting, I'd prefer not to do any at all. Things to note: - only 1 HDMI and USB port ( I didn't think this was important when I bought it. Now I wish I had more) - battery life is claimed to be 12hrs. I haven't notice it lasts that long. On continuous use I've gotten about 10 hours max, on battery saver half way through. Still a good option though.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from ASUS Answers
Posted .Dear Atla,
We do understand your disappointment and the inconveience if you are experiencing slow system speed, stability or performance issue with the laptop.
These issues are temporary during the initial WINDOWS setup and before installing cumulative WINDOWS Update, regardless what brand name of computer this may be. This may take a longer time depending on the network traffic from the update server and the stability of your high-speed internet service. Also, laptop will do several system reboot, black screen temporarily or restart during the update process. Once initial setup and WINDOWS Update installation completed, system speed or performance will be optimized. Keeping Windows updated will maintain optimum system stability and performance. If these steps were already performed to no avail, please try to run a diagnostics or optimization test using the "My ASUS" utility software or application. If this is not pre-installed on the laptop, please download the application at the Microsoft Store. For details on how to use "My ASUS", please go to: https://www.asus.com/support/FAQ/1041686/. Additionally, while accessing web applications, please make sure the unit has access to an established router and internet service is working properly since this will definitely affect system speed and performance.
If you need further assistance with the laptop, please email me at cl-rodel@asus.com and I would be happy to help. Or, you are most welcome to call Product Support Hotline at: 1(888) 678-3688. Also, you can chat with an ASUS live support agent at: http://bit.ly/AsusLiveChat.
Thank you for choosing an ASUS product.
Regards,
Rodel

Just buy it you wont regret it.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great laptop from a trusted company. Asus did a great job as usual just like they do on everything they build. The feel of the keyboard is perfect for me and the screen is great for a 14". Solid feeling unit not plastic flimsy. Excellent sounding speakers. Touch pad is easy to get used to and once again feels solid. I would recommend this to anyone who asked.

Great Mid Range Laptop.
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Picked this laptop up on a sale. The laptop has preformed very well for the price point that I picked it up at. The laptop has great battery life roughly get 10 hours on a normal day. The laptop also has plenty of power under the hood with the Ryzen 5 5500u and the Mx450. The only down side that I've found so far is the lack of the ability to upgrade the ram granted the ram included it very fast.
