With its slim and stark black design, it gives every look a discreet look.

This multifunctional laptop has a good connection with USB-C, a useful HDMI video output to easily connect it to a TV or monitor, for example, Wi-Fi ac and Bluetooth 4.1 modules for wireless connection and communication, an audio port, but also USB 2.0 and USB 3 USB 3.0 compatible, USB 3.0 devices guarantee transfers up to 10 times faster than USB 2.0 when a USB 3.0 device is connected.

We appreciate that Asus offers its own NumberPad (NumPad) technology here. When enabled, the touchpad turns into a touch-sensitive numeric keypad for easier number entry.
This is very important because all modules with a format less than 15 inches, including these modules, do not have a place on the right to place a physical numeric keypad.
Chiclet keyboard backlighting is possible, but availability of this feature needs to be confirmed.

As the display adopts a 16:9 aspect ratio with a precise Full HD image, it provides a good opportunity to display videos and other high-definition content. In addition, thanks to the anti-reflective treatment, the screen is more readable in a bright environment (for example, outdoors) than a glossy panel.

With a capacity of 512 GB, the SSD offers capacity in line with hard drive standards. However, if you need more space, you can add a second SSD or hard drive via the free 2.5-inch slot. Also use an external storage device. Choosing a USB-C / USB 3.0 device is an interesting solution to benefit from fast transfers.
