Wife loves everything - except battery life. Battery sucks

 

Given the chance, I would *NOT* buy this again. I got a great deal on it - or so I thought. The battery alone makes it the worst laptop I've bought in a long time.

Nice speed for day-to-day use. Plenty of drive space for day-to-day.

Battery life is awful. Battery lasts maybe 30-45 minutes tops. Since it is NOT upgradable, my wife is stuck with ridiculous battery usage and basically has to leave it plugged in all the time.

"DEAD" BATTERY and CHEAPLY MADE

 

I bought an ASUS Aspire One Netbook when they first came out years ago. Nice little netbook! However, ASUS has not improved their machines, they have gone cheaper. I have bought many 'refurb' products across the board over the years as well. That is...

Software works as described

1. The battery and ASUS battery configuration in BIOS. The battery came "dead". After many hours of research on tech forums, I find out that this has been a problem since the start with Asus. No one has a fix and now have 2 "dead" batteries that won't...

Asus X502CA-TS31 refurbished

 

This is the third refurbished laptop I've purchased from Neweeg. The other two are different models and are for my grand daughters. They too have received SSD's and Ubuntu. All the refurbished laptops I have purchased forn Newegg have worked correctly...

I installed a Solid State Drive, then the operating system, Ubuntu 14.04, 64 bit ; It is used by me only. I use it primarily for entertainment rather than watching television. I surf the Internet, email, youtube, facebook, many news sources etc. It...

The physical layout of the keyboard is somewhat different form my other laptops and certainly is different from that of a desktop keyboard. It took a little time to get used to. I'm a sloppy typist. As a matter fo fact I'm not much of a typist at all....

Loaded with junkware

 

Don't waste your time with low-end laptops from manufactures like ASUS that preload junk software they get compensated for, it's not in Your best interest, only theirs.

It's cheap

Tried running and McAfee did its own update, wouldn't complete its update for hours, went to 'add and remove' to remove McAfee, rebooted and McAfee still running processes in the background 'after' being removed. Tried Windows Update' but keep getting...

Decent for the price

 

Great for on-the-go b/c of weight. Good enough for someone getting first laptop, buying for kids or someone who doesn't need much from their computer. Wouldn't buy if you need to surf with blazing fast speed. Like I said, it's not terrible, but you'll...

Price. Wouldn't pay $350, I'd wait for $249-279 ; Light. Haven't purchased a laptop in 3 years, this thing weighs almost half of my last ; Runs cool. Barely seems to get warm even if I'm streaming and have been using for a couple hours ; Cool to touch

I wouldn't say it's slow, but it's not fast. Like I said, decent for the price. It is a celeron after all. Also had 8GB memory on previous, notice a little difference back to 4 ; Windows. Upgraded to 8.1 before I started anything which makes it...

You get what you pay for

 

Low resolution screen compared to todays ultra high res laptops, but in reality when I give someone an ultra high res screen, the first thing they usually do is turn down the resolution so things aren't so 'small'. Pro tip, to make this laptop about...

Lightweight, ultrabook CPU, long battery life, inexpensive. Perfect for web browsing and watching Netflix. You would never know it's refurbished except for the label on the box ; Would rate it 3 stars but for the price, I have to give it 4

Came with Windows 8, blew that away and put on windows 7. Driver support sucks for Windows 7 (I've been a Sys Admin for over 10 years). The audio driver and touchpad, sometimes stops working after resuming from standby, I would use the built in windows...

Would have been great if it kept working

 

I'm upset that after a month of use the machine just crapped out. We purchased this as a gift for a friend going back to college for nursing, now she's out of luck. Her ebooks and homework are on the machine and summer classes don't leave much for...

Great value laptop, the purple color was pretty fun, not bad specs for the price

stopped working after less than 3 weeks of use ; battery can't be accessed without opening the machine
