I bought this laptop for my school age great-niece, in the past she was given 10-year-old laptops upgraded with SSDs which were a help, but with 2nd gen Intel i5 and only 720p screen resolution, still left a lot to be desired. I spent a day setting the laptop up for her, I was immediately disappointed by the screen which lacks colour depth, reds appearing closer to orange and blues also weak. Furthermore, I called Amazon to arrange for a return, which they agreed to. However, a few days later when the family came round to see the laptop, it was agreed that they were happy to keep it. When I looked at alternatives such as the Acer Aspire 5 looking at the screen specs, these were hardly better. I have perhaps been spoilt by my various ASUS and Samsung OLED screens and higher end Razer Advanced, and a 6-year-old Dell XPS. Unfortunately, the OLED version of this laptop costs several hundred more. In other respects, it excels in speed and remains relatively cool thanks to the Ryzen processor.
I got this for my sons birthday….Looks good and works well and is fast, his old one was so slow. This also came with a special online offer attached for some Internet security…. Great… I thought… After waiting for a code which didn’t come, it was meant to come 1 day after purchase, I rang Amazon… I was told to wait 48 hours… it didn’t arrive… rang amazon again to be told we didn’t qualify, not true, had proof, so emailed Managing director, got sorted out within one day… they we’re very helpful…
This laptop is amazing I got it at a greatly reduced price so if it’s too expensive for you now it could be worth it for you to wait for a good sale and for the specs it provides and what I can do its truly an amazing laptop
We had been looking around to buy a new laptop for some time. We were quite taken with this Asus at 526.97 as it we found it at higher price elsewhere however, on Prime days the price dropped to 479.99, which was a game clincher for us – an absolute bargain. It has been easy to set up, really like the keyboard, as a touch typist, many of the totally flat keyboards I find difficult, whereas this product has just sufficiently raised keys to make a difference. The resolution appears to be good too. Have only given a 3 on battery life – purely because we have not used it sufficiently to gauge the lifespan as yet. Will upgrade once have had time to properly assess. On the use so far, absolutely delighted with the purchase and would highly recommend.
I don’t really have any complaints about this laptop, except for a few:
– battery life sucks
– the screen brightness isn’t the best
– constantly slowing down, even though this laptop is new, basically, and barely anything on this laptop
– 14″ screen, not 16″ as advertised, so I’m sorry for anyone who got happy and excited about the screen size and got 2 inches shorter. But even though it is 14″, it’s a decent size, just disappointed, as you are paying for the 16″, you are paying for what was advertised and promised.
But overall, a great laptop. 4 stars
:
So I was told the 16″ means diagonally, apologies for the mistake, I genuinely thought it was measured horizontally, this is new to me, a little strange tbh.
Anyway, I re-measured the laptop, and I got:
17″ diagonally
14″ horizontally
10″ vertically
I hope this helps and apologise for the honest mistake!
This is my first ASUS Laptop & I’m very impressed with it. Large well lit screen, it’s superfast and lightweight. We’ll built seems very sturdy Windows 11 pre installed and it runs Office 365 easily.
Bargain on the Prime Day deal.
Highly recommended.
This was bought as the ASUS brand is a good one.
I have had them before and they are reliable, great value for money and have a good data storage capacity.
My previous ASUS is still going but has a smaller screen and memory size.
This ASUS was bought to improve the viewable area, increase the memory size and to future-proof my laptop capability.
Bought this as the exact same model was 320 dearer in Harvey Norman Ireland. As I am registered blind I stick to the same Asus Laptops so I don’t have to worry about layouts as they are all the same with Asus.
Only small problem I have is when closing the lid and hibernation mode kicks in. I find after 2 days it needs a restart as I use an Access program and things start to malfunction nothing serious as when I restart everything works fine. I am overall happy with this Laptop.
Large and clear display, plenty of RAM and of storage space, great performance, numeric keypad, nice design and not bulky or heavy despite the large screen. Only missing fingerprint sensor. Amazing laptop, great performance and value.
This is exactly what I need, I ordered a laptop for 459 first and sent it back because it was awful, this however at 529 feels much more expensive, the quality difference feels like hundreds of pounds better quality. Good Screen, lovely build quality, sensitive trackpad, fast runner. I use for work and general surfing, runs Excel and Word together fine. Sound Quality ok, web cam clear,. I would definitely recommend it’s as good as much dearer laptops. I’m impressed and pleased with my purchase.
