Received the laptop a week ago. SSD is fast. Boots almost instantaneously. The 1080p screen is normal. The sound from the speakers are ok(nothing great). Battery lasts for more than 4 hours. Only two USB ports. Some bloatware. Using this as a work/personal laptop. Some internet based work and using the HDMI to stream to TV to watch movies. No issues so far.

Bought this for my mother because it has an SSD and an optical drive (which she had to have for some reason) and I couldn't be more impressed. Very light weight for its size and very fast. The SSD gives it the 'instant on' effect and not too much bloat ware from ASUS. I'm sold. If I didn't already have a MacBook Pro, I'd order one of these for less than half the price. Time will tell as far as durability goes, but so far no issues. Hard not to recommend a product like this for the price. Oh, it says 'Dark Brown' in the description, but its not...its black fyi...not sure what's up with that. You can see in the photos its a black/charcoal color

I ordered this computer as a Christmas gift for my son. He will be starting college in the Fall and I wanted to get him a good computer that will get him through the long haul. It arrived in a timely manner but would not turn on or charge. He had to return the computer for a replacement. Second laptop worked great and fits all his needs. I was disappointed that my original gifted computer did not work when he opened it on Christmas day.

Long-Lasting Polymer Battery
ASUS K series laptops feature a Li-Polymer battery that gives you up to 700 charge cycles - 2.5 times the lifespan of standard Li-ion cylinder batteries. On top of that, a Li-Polymer battery retains up to 80% of its original charge capacity even after hundreds of charge cycles so you won't have to worry about deteriorating battery performance. Thanks to a clever combination of hardware and software optimization, the battery adheres to the highest battery safety standards and gives you optimal charging performance to prolong its lifespan.
