Nice color and good base laptop for WFH

I bought this laptop for work at home. Was looking for something small and very light when I travel sometimes. It was definitely less than I expected. I've added some photos of the Asus laptop alongside my 13.3 on a Macbook Air and 11 on an iPad Pro. I expected it to be the same size as my Macbook but was surprised when it was smaller in length and width. /Word/PPT, occasional virtual meetings and some accounting programs. Haven't encountered any major issues even though I've only had this laptop for a little over a week. Battery life is okay - not the best. I could probably work a full 8 hour shift and the battery would be about 30% dead at the end of the day. I mostly leave it plugged in, so I have no complaints about the battery life. There were about 2-3 instances where I had many applications open and when I tried to open a file the computer freezes (the screen went black) for a millisecond. I also use this laptop to play LOL and haven't had any problems at all! I just love how beautiful the color is and how light it is. I don't use the numeric keypad too much as I don't find it that useful, although it's a nice extra feature! The only thing I don't like is that it only has one USB port. That means I can either charge my phone with my laptop or connect a wireless mouse to the USB port, but I can't do both. :( Also no headphone jack but it did have a USB-C to headphone adapter. Finally I checked the Asus website and I think this laptop should have come with a case but mine didn't. It came with it a charger (USB C charger) and USB-C to headphone jack adapter.

Pros
  • This is amazing
Cons
  • For old
