Sleek and Portable

I've been using this beautiful notebook for two week now and I am quite glad I bought it. nnPros: nnExtremely Light Weight and Thin nBeautifulnOutstanding Battery LifenFree Office 365 for an year (it's awesome)nNo Noise (It's fan-less)nDecent Speed (no lags)nDecent Keyboard (more about this later) nGood Screen (much better than those 1366*768, 15.6 inches though) nnCons: nnLimited Storage (I find it adequate though)nFeeble SpeakersnNo USB 3.0 (I miss this) nNo Full HDMI (I need to get an adapter asap) nStorage: nYou get around 19GB of free space, which does gets filled up quickly after you install office 365 and few applications. I've added a 32GB Micro-SD card, and it does meet my requirements. I use my external 1TB HD for storing everything heavy though. nnThis notebook runs smooth but it's not for any heavy task at all. I've installed the following software and everything's snappy. nnAvast Free Antivirus(minimal), Google Chrome, Code Blocks, Netbeans, MySQL, BitTorrent, FDM, Office 365, Dos-Box, Notepad++ and K-Lite Codec Pack. nnAfter installing all this, I am left with 11GB of free space in my primary drive. I don't use MicroSD card for installing programs. nnInput/Output: nnThe Keyboard on this thing is actually quite good, I regained my typing speed within 10 minutes, though after 2 weeks, I think the keyboard is actually kinda fragile. The feedback is good but sometimes few keys move as if they might come out, nothing has happened though. nnThe trackpad is fine, it took me sometime to get used it but it's a decent one. nnI love it's display, it's much better than my other 15 and 14 inches laptops. Text is crisp and color reproduction is okay. nnProcessing Speed: nnI run google chrome with 4-5 tabs with Word at absolutely no lag. It's performance is good enough for web surfing and word editing. It's more or less an entertainment device with few capabilities of a production device. nnFinal Words: nAs a second device it is a very good device. I use it to take notes in my class, and while travelling. I can even code some short class assignments. I bought it for my primary laptop is extremely heavy with very short battery life. MacBook air is expensive and thus, this acts a perfect device to fill the gap. nnI do all my serious tasks on my main laptop and do all the others on this. I'll admit, that lately I've been using this more than my main laptop. nnIn all, it's a good device for students who work mostly on web and for those who prefer battery life, portability and looks over performance. nnRecommended.

Great laptop, worth buying!

I've been using this laptop for a week now and it's been more than worth its price. The processing speed is like a dream. I'm a student, so I often have to toggle between several types of documents all at once, like pdf, word, spreadsheets and images, I haven't experienced any types of glitches or delays. It even seamlessly navigates between multiple desktops. The mouse touch pad is really precise and sensitive. The keyboard works well.nnThere's one small but annoying bug that I'll mention. It's a utility called "ASUS Splendid Video Enhancer" which is a straight off bloatware and a nuisance. It will keep reverting your custom display calibration to make it have a high gamma, washed out colors, etc. every time you restart, or put PC to sleep. But don't worry, just go to "Add or Remove Programs" in Control Panel and unistall that. It doesn't affect anything.nnThe default Groove media package has a bit low sound output (which might be suitable for some), so I'd suggest you play media in others like VLC Player.nnBut other than these, go for it! It's packed with all the features needed for an all purpose use and a budget buy worth its price for students.

faulty. terrible service

Delivered damaged/defective product. Doesn't boot up. Yet they want to repair the item than replace. Why should I accept a damaged product? They are saying some engineer will come to my house to look into the product. But 3 days have passed and no one came.

This supports Wacom n Gimp too.Terrific.

I am a movie fanatic,art student and love big displays.I sold off my previous smartphone and laptop and thought of buying 'redmi note 3' but after hearing about this laptop's big battery life and its low weight(980 grams) I have finally decided to buy it as i cud get full windows functionality.nIts been 6 months since im using it.Initially I thought that this device wont cope with intensive programs like photoshop or gimp but I have recently installed my old wacom bamboo and Gimp on it and it works like magic!Anyways u cant do heavy layered image editing.Moderate work is fine.It works best for digital painting work.nI dont know about Photoshop but Gimp works well.nRegarding the battery backup with moderate usage of wifi its giving me 10 hrs on full charge and exactly 12 hrs when wifi's turned off.nI suggest you to buy the violet colour over other fancy colours like red,white,gold as it feels decent.Anyways color choice is upto you.Buying this device was the best decision I have made.nIn one word-Beast
