ASUS Laptop Vivobook 15 E1504FA 15.6 Full HD Laptop (AMD Ryzen 5-7520U, 8GB RAM, 512GB SSD, Windows 11, WiFi 6E)

I have been using this laptop for about three months and have found it to be good solid laptop.The plus sides include -Very fast boot - power on button to login prompt in about 10 seconds.Clear displayVery bright back-light for the keyboard (can be varied)No problems with my workload (office stuff) even with VMware workstation and a VM or two running.Good Battery life.Niggles?Could have done with a extra USB-3 port or two.No built in Ethernet port for when I have to use wired connection.These are niggles as I have the required USB hub and USB-Gigabit Ethernet adaptor.I am not a gamer, so I can't comment on gaming performance.

Really pleased with the laptop. Purchased in the Amazon sale and it's well worth the money. Ready to use straight out of the box, super quick and nice and slim. I notice a lot of people aren't happy as theirs didn't have a backlit keyboard, however, ours has. Highly recommended.

Powerful, good battery, decent keyboard which should be back-lit in my opinion. The screen can only be viewed at a certain angle otherwise the colours will be very washed out. I came from an OLED 14 inch laptop from the same brand and thought that I had just grown used to the OLED beauty but I compared this screen to another non oled and it rang rings around this laptop. So if you're buying this for media, I wouldn't recommend it unless you're connecting it to an external monitor. The sound is decent and does the job. Fans don't get too loud even when I played a light weight game. The laptop can't be lifted with one hand for anybody wondering. I'm also not a fan of the colour of the keyboard it reminds me of one of those cream keyboards from the 90's/early 2000's especially because it's not back-lit. For someone just looking to do office of college work, this laptop is excellent especially with the high end CPU. If you're into gaming or watching stuff on it, I'd recommend looking at something with a better screen.

Other than being shipped in S Mode which is a pain in the ass, this laptop is perfect. Sounds and looks good. But it might need a reset to exit S Mode as mine did.

Ryzen 5600H, a 16:10 screen at 1920 x 1200! , 16GB RAM, 512 NVMe, dual-band (2x2) wifi. That's very good value for sub-£500 (especially once you take VAT out of the equation and it's nearer £400).The chassis quality is pretty solid, there's not too much give: the keyboard isn't spongey. The 720p webcam obviously isn't going to be the best thing, but it does have a physical privacy cover: a nice touch.Of course there's bound to be one or two compromises somewhere at this price point, and one would probably point to the screen: it's geniunely refreshing and great that it's a proper monitor-spec 16:10 (that extra height is *always* a plus) and at FHD+ resolution (WUXGA). 300 nits though is just above the merely adequate, and one probably shouldn't talk of colour-accuracy for creators. But as a functional cost-effective PC for someone who just needs web browsing, Office-type apps, some Zoom calls, video playback and perhaps some light gaming, there are probably few things better at this price that are new out of the box.

Wanting to return the laptop as the screen is so washed out. Ups were supposed to collect the item but lied pretending to knock on the door when nobody had tried. Amazon customer service is a joke now. They were disgusting i will not be buying from amazon again.4th dec STILL NOT BEEN PICKED UP FOR A RETURN. Went on chat numerous times phonecalls and emails and they have still not picked up the laptop. What is going on with customer service? saying ups will piick it up then UPS dont each day and have now lied twice saying they tred to pick it up but parcel wasnt ready!!!! nobody from ups have been. Security and doorbell cameras prove it.

Excellent thankss
