ASUS 2020 VivoBook 15 15.6 Inch FHD 1080P Laptop (AMD Ryzen 3 3200U up to 3.5GHz, 16GB DDR4 RAM, 256GB SSD, AMD Radeon Vega 3, Backlit Keyboard, FP Reader, WiFi, Bluetooth, HDMI, Windows 10) (Grey)

Excellent

My daughter was able to get this computer for her college classes with her financial aid. Very thin, light weight especially when a student is carrying lots of books, she is quite happy that she found it.

I really liked this laptop, until the screen went totally black 15 days after purchase. It will still work with an external monitor. After 2 calls to customer service, and many hours searching the ASUS website for help, I will either return this or ship it off to be repaired. I finally had it all set up and running well. Now Im removing documents and deleting things so I can return it or send it off for repair. ASUS customer service is not much help. I am so disappointed.

The seller got the item sent to us very quickly and in time for Christmas. So far, the laptop appears decent, although I’ll update this review if that changes. It came with 20GB ram rather than the 16GB advertised (yay) but only 238GB hard drive rather than the 256GB advertised (boo). I think they got confused by the way that memory works - the computer has 254,930,128,896 bytes, which may have looked to them as being 255GB but megabytes have 1024 bytes in them rather than 1000 bytes, so it’s not. Still, it’s more than enough storage for our needs, so I’ll let it go.

My son loved it before the battery life went to 20 minutes. Now it is a HUGE disappointment!

Shuts down if you try to do anything that actually requires it to work....playing a game? It shuts down no warning. Also didnt come with an activated Windows, had to purchase myself! Seller argued to refund full amount on defective product that didnt come with Windows!!

Just to write this review took me 4 attempts because this computer keeps crashing and I cant do anything with it. That is on top of the screen being in low res that I dont want even to watch an asd on it not to mention play a game on it (unless it 16bit game, then the screen will be best for it)

This laptop came with the screen completely broken!! I didn’t even get a chance to use it, it was mailed to me like this. I payed $500 for this!! Save your money. DO NOT BUY THIS ITEM!!

Very Nice! As advertised. Fast shipping. Recommended seller!

UPDATE: if you want a laptop that dies after 2 years, this is fine. I expected 5 to 8 years, so I have downgraded ASUS from 5 stars to 2. Shortly after I got it the M fell off the keypad and keys cannot be replaced even after ordering new ones. A few months later, the 2 key fell off, but I did not complain b/c it otherwise seemed robust. Typing was only minimally hindered by having to hit the white key bases where M and 2 used to be. TODAY it is officially dead, or at least many keys are now completely unresponsive and I cannot even login. I do have an external keyboard attached now (b/c of an able assistant), but my expensive ASUS is now a defacto brick: carrying an external keyboard around is a totally-sux solution. I am not likely to ever buy another ASUS.
