11-11-2024Unfortunately I believe I must return this computer. It has constant wireless connectivity issues. Webpage loading times are enormous. This is not acceptable from a $600 laptop. I cannot recommend this computer. Honestly it is quite bad.

> 3 dayI just received my Asus Thinkbook 15 via UPS yesterday and finished setting it up. It works just fine and it is much faster than my old Lenovo V570 with an old 2.4 GHz processor. I bought the one with an AMD Ryzen 7, it is a 4.0 GHz processor and with 8 Gb of DDR 4 ram and a 512 SSD. Although this device does not have an optical drive or an ethernet port, you can purchase an ethernet port separately and connect it via a USB port on your device. Once the device is connected via an ethernet port; your internet connection will be much more secure and a bit faster as well. I am a computer science major and this works very well. The notebook itself looks very professional in slate gray and it is also very lightweight as well. The fingerprint scanner is very easy to set up and once you do, you will be able to log into your account with one touch of a finger. It is much better and more secure than an old fashion password. DDR 4 ram is twice as fast as DDR 3 ram, therefore 8 GB of DDR 4 ram is the equivalent of 16 GB of DDR 3 ram. You can purchase a stick of 16 GB of DDR ram and upgrade the memory to 20 GB of DDR 4 ram for about $50. As I stated previously, this is really not a budget computer at all. It is also not a delicate device at all, the hard plastic casing is just as durable as a Lenovo laptop or notebook computer. Too much ram in a computer can cause it to crash, so can a defective stick of memory.

> 3 dayReceived the laptop to find that every component was incorrect. It had 4gb of ram instead of 8, the weakest intel cpu I have ever seen instead of the AMD Quad Core R7-3700U, 57 gb of storage instead of 512, and integrated intel gpu instead of the AMD Radeon Vega 10. I will change my rating if the seller fixes this mistake.

> 3 dayI wanted a laptop for word processing, excel, internet on the go. This hits the mark. Its lightweight, fast, and feels well constructed. Its biggest weak point is the sound, which sounds kind of muffled and weak. Its acceptable quality. Battery might be less than expected at about 2 to 2.5 hours off the hook. I got in on sale for $400, however. I dont think Id pay more than that.

> 3 daySo I bought this laptop for my dad to replace his old laptop that was getting slower every day. I could have just upgraded the memory and put in a SSD but the laptop was over 5 years old. I did some looking around around and this laptop seemed to be what my dad needed. Fast processor, SSD drive, backlit keyboard and lightweight. I checked around looking at reviews on various websites. The biggest knock I saw was that 4 Gbs of the memory built into the motherboard so I would only be able to upgrade one chip. It wasnt a big deal, I bought an 8 GB chip and upgraded it to 12GB. The laptop was fast, the amount of crapware was low and all was well as I transferred the data from his old laptop to his new one. Then I noticed the one flaw... It has no SD card slot. My dad has an older DSLR so he takes the SD card out of his camera and plugs it into his laptop. I do the same with my MacBook because my DSLR is also an older model without built in WiFi. My dad who had liked the laptop so far immediately complained. I had to order a USB hub (on amazon of course) to make things right. I would have gone the full 5 stars if it had had a SD card slot.
