- Pros mentioned:Battery life
Thin and light is great if cooled properly
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Design is excellent. The laptop looks beautiful. Speakers are awesome. Screen is nice but very very glossy. Port selection is good. Windows felt snappy overall. Track pad is pretty solid. Battery life seemed okay. The biggest problem was how hot the keyboard and bottom felt when performing heavy tasks. Very hot to touch. Would burn your skin if touching. The fans would run while even watching 4K video on YouTube. This was a turn off for me so I returned the device. Most reviews have the same concerns with the heat so it is not isolated to this unit it is a design flaw across the board.

Defective ASUS laptop(s)
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I generally like ASUS laptops, but I had a bad experience, actually several, with this one. The first one I bought constantly overheated. GeekSquad tried to repair it but to no avail, so they replaced it. The replacement had a bad motherboard, so that got replaced as well, but with a different brand. The odds of getting 2 bad ones should be fairly low, so maybe there is some issue with this particular model.

A SOLID BUY
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This laptop offers great value for the price—it's both stylish and sturdy. You really can't go wrong with this purchase. My only wish is for a firmer feel to the keyboard.

||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great computer! amazing display and with all the new technology,highly recommended.
I would recommend this to a friend Serious issues with internet connectivity.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Extremely frustrating. I was hoping that it would work fine, but it didn't. Wifi is horrible even after updating the drivers. After talking to support on line. After going to best buy to have it checked. Google Earth some times doesn't open; I had to open it in safe mode. The internet connection comes in and out. My Nimo laptop that I bought reads downloads of 550 to 600 mbs versus this Asus at 25 to 50 mbs side by side. What I love is the backlit keyboard, the light weight, the OLED touch Screen and has amazing speaker system. But none of this is important if the laptop doesn't work. I'm going to return it. Spent a lot of time trying to make it work but I think it has serious issues with BIOS and the internet says that the ASUS battery management system is to blame.

I would recommend this to a friend Save your money, do not buy Asus S16
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Overheating is a problem. Great specs in a very poor case. Touchscreen stopped working after 4 months, then the camera, and after all, the screen. I believe these problems are all due to the extreme overheating. I noticed a BURN MARK on the casing near the screen hinge. Yes, that is how bad the laptop is designed!!!! Now, a $1,400-Zenbook laptop has a dead screen and lies as a desktop pc connected to a monitor. Save your money and do not buy Asus S16
