Review on πŸ” ASUS Chromebook Flip C433 Review: 14-inch Touchscreen, Intel Core m3, 8GB RAM, 64GB Storage by Edgar Gomez

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Does someone else's screen sometimes flicker? Only random, very short readjustments/graphic errors.

I wish I could give this device a higher rating because I love a good Chromebook. But apart from the normal battery performance, the magnesium alloy seems to have a rather flimsy composition. After just three days, I see scratches on the surface that make it look like a cheap plastic variant. Especially in the beginning I think you tend to be gentler with the device but the alloy or maybe its coating feels too soft making it super sensitive. Most importantly, has anyone else experienced random screen flickering/resets? Just random, very brief glitches that cause the screen to jump/refresh. There isn't a single day of use where this isn't the case. Also very unpredictable and no specific action that seems to trigger it. I would like Revain.com, Inc. or Asus to offer a solution or refund for the issues reported. I haven't bought a device at a premium price and shipped it to Taiwan just to have it exhibit such mediocre performance and oddly odd bugs that I wonder if it won't eventually crash entirely on a then more substantial basis. Limitations.

Pros
  • Feels good
Cons
  • Something different
