Super light which is perfect since I need to carry this around everywhere. The battery life is insanely good. If the battery is full I don't even think about the charger for 2 days.

Great laptop! Feels incredibly light, but still fairly durable. Screen is great, colors really pop. Best element of all is battery life, feels like it runs forever on a single charge. Mostly using it at home, but imagine it'd be great for travel.

The A14 with Qualcomm Snapdragon Elite processor and 16GB RAM is light and bright, sipping slowly from the long-lasting battery. Changes fast. Keyboard backlight has 3 levels plus OFF. Soft keys tactile and great response. Multi-finger touchpad is precise. All great. Only wish I’d waited a couple weeks for the additional $100 price drop to $650! That’s life :-)

I'm still learning to use this laptop but it's been great so far. No hiccups and no issues yet. The battery life is spectacular. I had it fully charged almost a month ago and I just got back from my vacation. I checked and it still had 90% battery life. Very impressive. Let's hope everything else works as well as the battery.

The computer is excellent. The processor speed stands out for everyday tasks, AI, and if you're a student looking for something optimal but with a plus, it's ideal. The color is beautiful; It's matte and super light. The best.

This is the lightest weight laptop I have seen. I bought it due to the powerful processor and the weight. I bring the laptop in my carry on roller bag when I fly somewhere. Makes life easier.

If you can get this laptop on sale, I would say it is one of if not the best windows laptop for students currently available. It has fantastic battery life, fast processing, and durable build quality, in addition to a beautful display. While most programs run non-native currently, I don't believe that poses much of a problem for most students. I certainly haven't noticed any problems, and I 10/10 would buy this again.

I needed a laptop for use around the house when detethered from my Asus ROG G22CH desktop. I was looking for a thin and light with 16GB RAM, 512GB SSD, 14" OLED and this fit the bill. The glossy OLED screen greatly compensates for the 1200p resolution. The Ceraluminum finish is unique but not without its pitfalls. Some of the finish has blemishes/abrasions right out of the box so I'm unsure of how it will fair over time. Overall, the Snapdragon X Plus processor is accommodating and battery life is exceptional. I would've loved to have the same amount of ports as the ROG G14 but at this price point that's wishful thinking. I recommended you get this on SALE only. You do not get the best price/performance ratio at retail price.

Best laptop I've purchased. Extremely lightweight and battery life is excellent. The screen is glossy so I added a matte screen protector and it's amazing now. Would definitely buy again.

Super light weight but is a champion in its class. Co pilot knows how to be trained into your 6 watcher. Snapdragon x plus is a beast from the mythical world. Handles the fight with those classes on another weight class. Definitely in the mode of ZEN. Don’t waste on another laptop. You will always stay with the Zen when you dive deep.

Have had this laptop for almost 2 weeks and loving how fast it is and how smooth it operates. The battery life is great so far, the display on the screen is beautiful. I'm hoping it will last me a long time.

Great battery life with fast processing speed, much quicker than my older MS Surface 3 laptop.
Only complaint is my Western Digital external drive is now a brick. WD software, Acronis True Image, is not compatible with ARM64 architecture.

I really like this laptop. The Best Buy salesman spent time describing the benefits of this system and others and left it up to me to decide from all of the choices. The system is fast and currently I have had no issues with performance. Battery is excellent.

Great product, looks very sleek and is light as a feather. I love the product. Best buy customer service, however, was slightly less lovely.
I thought that Best buy customer service was a bit disappointing for me because the laptop is currently listed for $50 less than what I paid for it. Due to the return period being over, Best Buy reports that they are unable to price match with themselves on the same product. I get it, and it's also kind of lame.

Excellent laptop!
This is my first purchase of an ASUS laptop. It replaced my MSI laptop which suddenly stopped loading Windows 11, even after reformatting to factory settings. I did not have time to wait/research a fix, so I purchased this ASUS laptop on sale. I am pleasantly surprised at its performance - very quick start and nearly immediate shutting down.
I had an issue with product registration. I wound up registering the product prior to creating a My ASUS account. I personally think the step-by-step process could have been better, but it is what it is. The good news is that ASUS customer support was able to clear out my old registration, which allowed me to reregister under the My ASUS account. I had to provide documentation confirming my ownership of the laptop, but it was not too onerous.
The one thing I would change with the specifications is 32GB RAM instead of 16GB. The laptop is always running anywhere from 60% of 70% of RAM capacity. My work laptop (and the MSI) has 32GB of RAM and that is what I used as guidance for my personal needs. Having said that, it does not appear to have diminished performance as my personal needs is mostly to open Word docs, PDFs, and use of the Edge browser. I sometimes open Excel, but with small worksheets. So, perhaps for my personal use, 16GB is sufficient.
I also would not object to 1 TB of storage for the same reason as the 16GB-to-32GB, but I may not need it. Fortunately, I back up all my personal files, so when the MSI stopped functioning, I did not lose anything, other than time.
I would buy this laptop again.

This is the lightest laptop I own so far, and the battery life last the longest I have ever own also. Good enough for me to bring it everywhere for a whole day of work.

This is an amazing laptop. The screen is gorgeous and the Snapdragon X Plus processor actual runs most things well. Everything felt snappy in windows. The battery life is also out of this world. 15+ hours of use with even more standby. I unfortunately returned it because I decided I wanted a higher resolution and touch screen.
