Review on ASUS I7 1165G7 Processor Thunderbolt S435EA BH71 GR by Phil Casey

Revainrating 3 out of 5

good for home use - everyday use - keyboard annoying

I have this laptop for work bought, ie I usually use the Lenovo brand, but I chose this Asus laptop because I like its features and design. When I receive the laptop it looks great, it looks good, the screen is fine and it's fast. I have the option to upgrade the RAM so I feel this laptop is good for home/primary use. The second disappointment was that the letters on the keyboard were hard to see, the color of the bottom and the color of the shape of the letters are too similar making them difficult to see, and the keyboard backlight is too poor. And the worst thing is the keyboard layout, I don't know why Asus is trying to change the number pad layout and make the keyboard a bit smaller so it's so hard to get used to this keyboard. If you type a lot and need to use the numeric keypad, this laptop is a nightmare

Pros
  • Intel Core i7-1165G7 2.8GHz processor (12MB cache, up to 4.7GHz, 4 cores, with IPU) with Intel Iris Xe graphics
