ASUS Vivobook 15 X1504ZA 15.6" Full HD Laptop (Intel i7-1255U, 8GB RAM, 512GB SSD, Backlit Keyboard, Wi-Fi 6E, Windows 11)

Bought this to replace a 7 year old Acer. This Asus is a good choice - lighter, slightly smaller and faster. Fan is very quiet. Upgraded the RAM by another 8Gb to deliver 16Mb - the upgrade cost was a quarter of the difference in price of buying this exact model with 16Gb already installed - and took me just 10 minutes to do. So overall a very satisfied customer. My only downside comment is that the backlit keyboard is good at night, but during the day, the letters on the keys are very difficult to see - being a pale grey against as silver grey background. Getting used to it but better contrast in this area alone would make this a better all round buy.

Good price, much faster than my previous laptop. Great screen imaging.

Very pleased with this laptop and a big step up on the one it replaced except one area. Lightweight, relatively fast processor, silent operation and quick to load programs thanks to the solid star drive. Screen display bright and clear. Downside? Speakers. If you wish to have music or even a video conference with a quite loud setting this laptop doesn’t appear to offer that. If your hearing is 100% it’s not an issue, nor is it for general use - but if you want louder, no.

This was bought to replace an old Lenovo which had become very slow. This machine is extremely fast & the screen is lovely & clear. Like one of the other reviewers, I was finding it difficult to see the keys when the keyboard was illuminated, but as recommended, pressing F7 until the illumination is switched of makes the keys much easier to see in daylight.

I bought my first Asus Vivobook on 31st July -23. I charged it up and attempted to start setting it up. It got to the first screen, and there it stayed, so i returned it, and the replacement arrived a couple of days later. I set it up - I found the letters on the keyboard at times difficult to see as they are light grey on silver, but that apart it was set up and appeared to function properly. I put some things on it and tried them out, so far so good. One of the main reasons for buying this was that video conferences were difficult on my normal steam computer which has no microphone. So with a couple of Zoom meetings approaching we started by setting up a trial meeting. All great, meeting about to start, and the laptop announces the battery is getting low, please connect your charger, which I do. The charging commences. Meanwhile the laptop has timed out. The screen is black, and has remained black no matter what. It is dead. I do not recommend.

I have had several ASUS laptops over the last few years and have been generally pleased with them. This one is decent (but not perfect) - still good value for price. ( i7 / 8GB RAM / 512 SSD / backlit keyboard) Pros: - very fast - solid keyboard, backlighting is excellent and a must-have for my purposes (laptop used in low light at times) Cons: - display is average but usable, typical of a LCD but I wonder if I should have paid more for OLED (although I understand they are not perfect either) - fan is easily triggered by even low CPU load and a little noisy Haven't tested battery life. Overall, good value for money. Nice balance between performance and price.

Good laptop but the screen isn't great, just a TN panel i think, battery is not 8 hours and 8gb ram isnt great but theres a free slot. I used a ddr4 sodimm 3200mhz crucial stick to upgrade it to 16gb

The Laltop is up to fate in terms of Windows , it was bought at a good price & is being used daily by the student recipient
