Update

 

You get what you pay for, I guess. Don't buy this. When I first got it about six months ago, it was messed up during updating and was just slow in general once I got it working. It's still slow as heck and the graphics are awful. I can't play any games...

It was cheap, had a disc drive, and only 2 other reviews at the time that said it was decent

Slow in almost every way possible, absolutely terrible speakers, can't look at or repair any internal pieces because the back is totally sealed shut. Read "other thoughts" for more

Slooooooow

 

Caught this on sale for a little less than $300. If you are looking for the bare basics, like just getting on the internet and maybe using Office ... I still couldn't recommend this laptop. I've had good luck with Asus in the past, just not with this...

Cheap. Battery life is pretty good. Has a number pad

Windows 8 it terrible. The CPU is slow even for a Celeron. Very sluggish. Touchpad and clickers are irritating to say the least. Very "plasticky" feel. Cheaply constructed, but that was expected at this price point. Keyboard feels very cheap

An exercise in in futility

 

It's quite possible I have a single bad instance of this model. It doesn't matter, this laptop is awful in the most important way possible. It doesn't work at all. I absolutely regret this purchase and will never buy another cheap ASUS laptop.

There are none. All pros are outweighed by the cons

I'm an ASUS fan. I have two ASUS routers and an awesome RoG laptop that I souped up a bit. Sadly, this laptop is inferior junk, falling far, far below what I expect from ASUS. Out of the box, it wouldn't update to 8.1 correctly. It would hit update 112...

Its good while it works

 

Overall if you are looking for a notebook that is going to be used for typing essays,researching, or casual browsing i would recommend it but for an extra 100$ you can get a more reliable laptop

I bought this notebook for school purposes. I usually run microsoft word, power point, adobe reader, internet browser, and occasionally for games. It suits my purpose because i'm able to carry this notebook with me to school and back and work on tasks...

3 months after I purchased this notebook, the hard drive stopped working and I lost many important document and files. However I contacted asus technical support for warranty service and they were able to help me get it fixed. The service was reliable...
