ASUS VivoBook 15 Thin and Light Laptop, 15.6” FHD, Intel Core i3-8145U CPU, 8GB RAM, 128GB SSD, Windows 10 in S Mode, F512FA-AB34, Slate Gray

Laptop was not working at all after a few days. Ill probably never buy a Asus again.

Very Satisfied

I knew in purchasing the laptop Id need to make immediate upgrades. I didnt need the best processor as all my work is done online, but do open multiple taps and email all day long. I added 8 gb RAM and 500 gb SSD, which should be plenty for me, so overall $80 in upgrades that add to the cost of the laptop. Still cheaper than a stronger processor laptop that Id pay $100+ more for and still end up upgrading memory and storage. Boot time is lightning fast and so far everything responds as it should during work. Upgrading was super easy. There is a space for an extra hard drive, but no connector or caddy so those will have to be purchased separately, adding on another $20 to the cost. If you have a hard time finding the right connector and caddy to fit, I purchased the https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07PDZ4DGF/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1, which ended up fitting fine but the screws are loose holding the drive to the caddy and it is only friction holding it in place in the empty hard drive slot. It is a good tight fit so it is fine for my use, which is mostly work at home, very rarely taking my laptop out of the home to work away. Overall I spent around $450 for a decent processor and plenty of memory and storage.

Hermosa, delgada y super fashion

Lightweight

Its been working great, i was able to turn off the windows S mode. Very light and slim, its very comfortable.

For $400 this laptop is not worth it. I can’t go 5 minutes without it crashing and I need this for school and work. I can never get anything done with it and I’ve barely had it a couple months. If there was a way I could fix the crashing issue without spending any for money this would be a 5 star laptop for me but it isn’t. I thought if I were to wait it out it would get better but it hasn’t and now I’m stuck with this piece of junk and out $400. And for a college student that is a lot of money to be throwing away.

My old HP lap tops hard drive died. My new Asus starts and shuts down instantly! Quiet, good looking and light. After almost three weeks I have no complaints. Backlit keys are a greater benefit than I expected. Great value!

It works really good

Let me preface this review by saying Im a middle aged retired woman. This computer is perfect for what I need. I surf the web, do a little research and maybe stream a movie or TV show occasionally. I do not game at all. This computer boots and searches very quickly. It is also quite light and slim. Easy on my wrists when lifting. It does have the quirks of S mode but Ive adjusted with no real whining. The major quirk was mail. I am one of the last 7 people on earth who has AOL mail. I could not get my mail through AOL web page but had to link my accounts to the Microsoft mail app. Not a big problem. You can easily get rid of S mode, but once you do, you cant go back. For me, the idea of a fast, safe mode, is more important than any weirdness S mode creates. All Good here.
