   Great gift for the casual gamer
   I helped a friend get this because she had like 15-year-old laptop and she hasn’t complained even once, this was a huge upgrade for her but also at a price that was budget-friendly for her and she has never once regretted this. This is good for someone who doesn’t play a lot of high-intensity games and only plays one or two. She is very happy with it. The best part is that if you want to play more games, it has a slot for adding another hard drive.

   Great entry level gaming laptop
   Let me preface by saying the last time I purchased a new laptop was in 2005 (Acer Aspire 3000) and while tablets are nice for on the go, my digital life was a hot mess. I needed something that wasn’t wafer thin flimsy and that didn’t cost an arm and a leg. I am by no means a gamer, nor do I play PC games but I was still looking for a laptop that had some heft to it. I stumbled across this one mainly because it was suggested by amazon and the price seemed right even though its a 2021 model. After reading reviews and comparing bewteen this and the similar price/spec Acer Nitro, I chose this one because upgrading the RAM and adding an additional SSD drive wouldn’t require a doctorate in computer science.
   As far as upgrades are concerned I also purchased the crucial 64GB (2x32gb) set as well as a 2TB Crucial NVMe SSD drive when I ordered this as mentioned by an earlier reviewer. The install took all of 10 minutes to pop the back cover off and slip in the new RAM/SSD modules and I was ready to fire this baby up. I figured I would just max the RAM (64GB) and beef up the storage and be done with it so opening the back cover wouldn’t be necessary any time soon.
   Initial setup was pretty straightforward with Windows 11 and once I got to the home screen I got into the settings and performed all the necessary windows updates as well as the updates for the bundled Asus graphics software. Aside from the McAfee antivirus and the Microsoft 365 trial programs, there was no other bloatware to be found. Once those were uninstalled I was able to customize settings to my liking.
   The laptop comes as advertised, I wasn’t expecting 15 USB ports on this nor do I require that many. The keyboard is very nice and is a full size with a slightly smaller than normal 10 key number pad. Keys are nice and clicky, not mechanical but also not a mushy membrane either. The backlit keys are a nice touch and can be customised to your liking as long as it’s all the same color. It has about four different modes for pulsing lights or strobe or just on always. The trackpad is great and has the physical right and left mouse buttons and it is mostly centered so you dont brush the trackpad when typing.
   Out of curiousity I tried the online benchmark test to see how this machine ranked, and surprisingly with the RAM upgrade it ranked in the 92 percentile range (see photos) and the graphics were very smooth ranging anywhere from high 60’s to 130 FPS on ultra settings.
   As mentioned I am not a PC gamer but hopefully this information will be helpful for those that do partake. I may run some console emulators at some point, but for now I’ll just be enjoying the soft glow from the keyboard lighting.

   Cute! – 28 February 2025

   Love it
   Sorry gamers. I am not a gamer. I bought this to pay off for a monthly of 5 payments. However, I do love this laptop. I got it for the memory, big screen, and just to do homework on and stream shows on Prime and Disney+. I do not experience loud fan or noise, and I play solitaire and love it! Noise level seems good to me. Charging is good, and everything works well as what it is supposed to do. I got internet, works fast, and the color changing keyboards is fun! You can come up with your own color changing cycles. I have not experienced this laptop heating or anything. Keyboard is amazing and the screen is pretty huge from my last Lenovo one I had! Hoping to last this for years! I do just plan to use this for school and streaming shows. So hoping this will last longer than my 2-year laptop 🙂

   Great For Music Production!
   I got this laptop for portability to take with me to studios & in public to work on DJ sets & to connect my MPC One+ to the desktop software. Once configured properly (use LantencyMon) it worked exceptionally well for me. I tested projects in Reason 13 & in the MPC software & it operated smoothly with just 8GB.
   Also, if you concerned about durability, this laptop fell off of the top of my DJ stand (user error) & I had no problems afterwards outside of a cosmetic scratch at the hinge so it’s definitely durable.
   The sound quality of the speakers lack, that’s my only issue & why I didn’t give this laptop a solid 5/5. They aren’t loud at ALL & the sound isn’t as flat as I like. Sounds like it’s trying to artificially sound bigger than what it’s truly capable of.

   Very happy!
   I bought this laptop a couple of weeks ago after my previous one stopped working. I’m not a gamer; I purchased this laptop for school and personal use only. I experienced some lag with my last laptop (also an Asus) while attending online classes and completing schoolwork. I figured that a gaming laptop would be able to handle more than I required. So far, I was right—it’s been great! It’s fast, and the graphics look fantastic. I hope to keep this laptop just as long as my previous Asus, which lasted 10 years. I ran into an issue with my warranty when I registered it, but I contacted customer service, and they quickly resolved the matter. I had my last Asus for 10 years, and we still have another 10yr old Asus going strong. I did upgrade the RAM from 8 GB to 32 GB before I even turned it on for the first time. It was an extremely easy process, eventually, I’ll upgrade the SSD as well. But for now, it’s a beautiful laptop and I couldn’t be happier.

   Creo que ha sido una gran compra pues la relación calidad precio tienes una computadora decente que por lo menos, no se traba. No uso software de diseño, pero si estadístico que también requiere de muchas operaciones por segundo y hasta ahora,se ha portado bien.
   También le he instalado un par de mis juegos favoritos de Steam y se ha portado bien. Se puede jugar sin problemas.
   Y como recomendación, si pueden invertirle 7n poco más para expandirle la memoria, que aguanta hasta 32 Gb, y añadirle un Segu do disco duro M.2, no duden en hacerlo. Mejore su desempeño y después de haberle añadido memoria y disco, su desempeño mejoró. No diré que es como de película, pero ya se puede trabajar bien.
   El único problema que le veo, es el acabado, que siempre hay que limpiarla porque se nota cuando la tomas, porque se queda la grasa de las manos

   Después de un mes de uso puedo decir que es un excelente equipo, tenía mis dudas respecto al procesador, pero aun con los 8 GB de RAM con los que viene, puede correr juegos AAA sin problema.
   Lo que definió mi decisión por este equipo, es su opción modular, puedes ampliar la RAM hasta 64 y tiene 2 ranuras para SSD M2, lo cual ayuda a que se mantenga vigente mucho tiempo.
   El único detalle que tiene, que es entendible, es la duración de la batería, si quieres un rendimiento óptimo para juegos debe de estar conectada a la corriente, ya que activa el modo turbo, pero en modo performance puede correr bastante bien 1 o 2 horas.
   En conclusión, magnífico equipo en relación precio desempeño.

   Gran equipo, sobre saliente el programa que desconecta la batería para garantizar más vida a la batería. Sin duda una gran compra a meses de haberla adquirido.

   La mejor laptop qué he tenido, no sé calienta no hace ruido. Para juegos la ocupo muy poco, pero para programar y hacer proyectos de automatización esta excelente, jalando al 1000% desde más del año y medio.
