A normal product, but they wanted more for the money.

I think it would be a lovely present for someone else, but I wouldn't want it for myself. You can achieve a normal result (roughly speaking) if you put in a bit more effort and work directly on it. - Despite the fact that the price is too high in relation to everything else, I purchased it solely due to the screen. - Disassemble the laptop and check to see why the speakers are rattling; there are specific rubber bands, on the speakers, that prevent this from happening; nevertheless, they may have slid or burst or not been placed properly. The problem can be easily fixed. - Although Asus itself states that a maximum of 16 is not real, I was able to make 20 gigabytes of RAM by swapping a 4 gigabyte module with a 16 gigabyte module. Concurrently, it operates in a two-channel format inside the first 8 gigabytes of memory. I even think that it is also feasible to enter a 32 gigabyte module there and it will work, as I have already had such experience with other laptops. The most important thing is to take 3200 MHz memory, a regular brand that is not AMD, and a patriot was what I chose to use. - Be careful! There are two versions of this laptop available: one has an OLED screen, and the other has a conventional IPS screen. The digital index and appearance of both models are exactly the same; however, the term "OLED" should be included in the marking after the model number on the OLED model. - In general, as a device for lazing around on the couch while surfing the Internet, viewing videos on YouTube or movies - overall, more than,

Pros
  • - This review only applies to the OLED version of the screen; IPS displays are also available. Excellent screen. The sound is average for a laptop of this size, and some could even call it superb. The design and aesthetics are excellent. - Extremely lightweight and nice to the touch. Retains a charge for a considerable amount of time, particularly if you make use of dark themes and do not make any adjustments to the screen's brightness. Again, this only applies to the OLED model; the IPS model is likely to be more expensive.
Cons
  • greediness on the part of Asus in any and all matters pertaining to giblets: What was the point of soldering four gigabytes onto the board? Who has a use for them? What stopped you from making it to the second slot? However, 8 gigabytes may also be soldered, and although this would result in a more expensive product, it would be slightly superior. - What a joke, there's just one expansion slot, which means you'll either have to leave it empty or waste 4 gigabytes on anything foolish. - Two (TWO!) PCI-E lines are required for each M.2 port, and the CPU already has enough lines. What in general? What kind of childishness is this? - fig SSD, this is Intel 660p, on QLC memory, they put it there just for fun and to sell illiquid assets, also for replacement, although someone lives with it, I won't risk it. Also, they put it there for replacement. - no SATA cable to add a SATA 2.5 drive. Additionally, there are no fasteners for it, although there is a location for it to go. This issue can be remedied with the use of adhesive tape (fasteners) and Ali (flex cable), neither of which is very pricey but is rubbish. - The screen has a glossy finish in the OLED version, which is the same as mine, and there are no further customization possibilities. You are entitled to every highlight. The IPS model is supposed to feature a screen that reduces glare, but I haven't had the opportunity to check this out for myself; nonetheless, it's likely that this won't be an issue.
