Recommended upgrades:
Note that for these you'll have to pry open the laptop casing and install components yourself. The slots into which you'll shove these parts should already be empty, as this laptop seems to have been built to accommodate mods. Getting this down-and-dirty with a new machine fresh out the box may seem risky if you aren't very tech literate, but it's nothing a few carefully watched YouTube tutorials can't solve. I watched probably every relevant (and some irrelevant) tutorial(s) out there just to be safe, and Tech Minimalist had the most helpful videos.
1) As many have pointed out, the included 1TB HDD is unacceptably slow for our century if you're using it use a boot drive. The solution is to order an aftermarket SSD. It can be as small as 128gb, though I sprung for a bit more space and got this 250gb one for just under $70:
Crucial MX500 250GB 3D NAND SATA M.2 Type 2280SS Internal SSD - CT250MX500SSD4
It works. The difference is night and day. Watch some YouTube tutorials on how to configure that as your boot drive, download Macrium Reflect, boot into BIOS (if you've never done this before, be warned: it feels really cool), etc. But does that mean the HDD is superfluous? No, you just use it as a storage shed from now on. It does come in handy.
2) the stock 8gb RAM is more than I'd ever had in a laptop, but I decided that if I was going to break open a new laptop anyway I might as well make the most of it and get insane. So I ordered an additional 8gb stick to make this a 16gb-RAM situation. And with the amount of memory that even Chrome alone sucks up (something like 40% with 15-20 tabs open), I'd say spring for it if you have the money. This was a bit over $80 and it works like a dream:
Crucial 8GB Single DDR4 2400 MT/S (PC4-19200) SR x8 SODIMM 260-Pin Memory - CT8G4SFS824A
If you don't have the money lying around, 8gb is still great (especially for the price), but.... 16gb is the real yerba mate / NZT / MDT-48 experience. Nothing EVER lags, unless I'm trying to open an 80gb dataset or something ludicrous, which event hen just takes about 5 seconds. If you can afford the investment, make it.
Note: If you've never installed a memory stick, just know that, at least on this computer, when you push it into the slot, it'll take some pressure, and it has to click in. You might feel like you're about to break something, but it's all part of the installation. You insert it sidelong at an approximately 45 degree angle, then push it down over these metallic levers that support the stick at perimeter points and seem rigid, but trust me, they'll give. Once it clicks, you're in. Watch those YouTube tutorials though.
After tax, that's a little over $800 for specs that in a new Macbook would cost three times as much.
Cons:
The keyboard isn't backlit, and it is kind of weak. You get used to it, but it's not top quality. Others have called it "flex", but that conveys an exaggerated impression. It's just a kind of lame keyboard, but I suppose that's the kind of corner-cutting that made this good deal possible. Nothing's perfect.
The power button is part of the keyboard. Kind of strange, but I never hit it accidentally and I'm clumsy, so you'll be all right.
Windows is abominable, but that is an unvarying reality of this price range. Feel free to experiment with a Linux flavor if certain things get too frustrating.
This is truly a sleeper laptop for the rest of us, handsome and functional with roomy upgrade potential.
PS: there's something of a community around this laptop. So many people have it that it's quite easy to find relevant tutorials online.
After about 4 weeks of light use, the screen stopped working. I could display to any external screen, so it was clearly a dead laptop display. Somehow I figured out who to call for warranty service. I received an email with the shipping label. Shipping was free but I did spend $20 for a laptop box at FedEx. I didn't really expect to see the laptop again so I wiped the drive of all customizations and my data files. I shipped a phone back to AT&T and they are still charging me for it so I have lost all faith.
But after a couple weeks, I received the laptop. They had swapped the display for one that worked. I haven't had any other problems.
Having the display crap out so early made me notice that it is not the best built laptop. I would be sure to keep a current backup at all times because it doesn't seem very reliable or sturdy. I'm definitely going to plan for disaster while using this laptop.
ORIGINAL Review
This is a non-technical review. I have been running Windows on my MacBook for 5 years as a VM because I have 2 Windows software I can’t give up, bless my heart. Then I had a PC I could remote into but it had a major crash. Then MacBook is running out of space. I had to choose between replacing PC at remote location, upgrade MacBook from 1 TB to 2 TB SSD. I realized I’m quite fed up with running my VM. The allocated resources are hard set so as long as VM is up then my other usage has to cut down.
Then I saw the specs and price on this Asus laptop. Checked a couple reviews on other sites. Got a special discount offer from my credit card and voila four c notes later, my problems are solved.
I always read the bad reviews first so my expectations were lowwwww. The goood, the bad and the overall:
Starts fast. Not SSD fast but hella fast ... for Windows. Maybe 14 seconds. Battery lasts. How long? Dunno. But I don’t charge for days and just shut it in the middle of using it. Come back and open it up, start it back up and the battery has not declined. Is it lightweight?- barely notice you’re holding it, gotta remember to treat it gently and not slam it down like a newspaper or magazine. How’s WiFi? Ok, good question. It has dropped WiFi for no reason. But that was the day my surf was going out (as in sync but no surf), so really not sure if that will keep happening. On the bad side, Apple spoils you for cheap laptop screens. It’s not great. Gets the job done but I feel no joy using the screen. Not a technical description albeit. Perhaps it’s a pixel thing or resolution quality or lacking brightness or muddy colors or the quality of the material is , shall we say , price competitive? But I wouldn’t use it to make movies.
The keyboard: meh. It’s scheis , not going to write a novel with this keyboard. But with WiFi, 3 USB ports and Bluetooth, I don’t think you’ll suffer shut in syndrome.
However I do like the the mouse pad - nice and responsive
The best: NO BLOATWARE. Mine had absolutely no bloat. It was a thing of beauty. Not even a freaking annoying out of date version of Microsoft office begging to be bought. Nada. Priceless. No McAffee. No disk-this-that. Nope. So of course I started bloating it up myself but hey it’s my crap so there.
Is it a bit flimsy feeling? Yes but I don’t care. I like my cute little fast easy bloatfree super priced Asus. I won’t give it up. I’m back to balancing my checkbook daily.
Top reviews from other countries
All the appropriate ports you need. Can’t argue with that.
Only problem I’ve do notice is is the build quality. Could have been better but the light weight and small size makes it worth it.
Completely recomended.
This laptop is okay and will do the work. For the price it's very reasonable. What I didn't like is that it didn't have backlit keyboard but it is not really a big deal. I think the keyboard feel is fine although I've seen many reviews criticizing it. The hard drive gets toasty though and it's placed where your right hand rests when you're typing. The fan is quiet but I don't think it's given enough space to ventilate. It's also fairly light, given that it is a 15.6 inch laptop. I get occasional one second lags but it is not a big deal for me. Overall a good, solid laptop for the price.
Note: For those who are not experts in laptop upgrades (like myself), REMEMBER to remove the two black rubber pieces to uncover more screws.
