ASUS Chromebook Flip CX5 (CX5400) review – Premium Feel, Middling Specs
Source: Laptop Media
The ASUS Chromebook Flip CX5 (CX5400) could impress future buyers with its transforming capabilities and solid metal build that feels premium to the touch. The port selection is modern with its two Thunderbolt 4 connectors but unfortunately, because of the Type-C charging, you can rely on just a pair of ports when the adapter is plugged in. The input devices are capable enough for standard work. Despite the dated CPU under the hood, the performance is more than acceptable for daily usage. Web browsing, watching videos, and light gaming aren’t a problem for the 15W Tiger Lake CPU despite the low clocks of around 1.00 GHz in short and medium loads. The memory is soldered and if your budget isn’t too limited, get a laptop with 16GB of LPDDR4x which sounds a bit more future-proof than the default 8GB option.

Review – ASUS Chromebook Flip CX5400: Should this be for you?

This is a bit dangerous, though. There is no information available regarding the pricing of this laptop and I was told that “it starts from RM4,199”. The price is obviously high for its specs because we can get other Windows laptops at a much lower price than this – but the operating system is where the magic lies. Depending on your work, a Chromebook might suit you more than a Windows PC. For me, I use laptops mostly for typing scripts, doing reviews like this one, or do content scheduling and filling in the description box of YouTube videos. Combined with the supremely long battery life that Chromebooks offer, I think Chromebooks suit me more.

The price though, is something that I do not have. I can’t find anything – not even on the website. As far as I know, it “starts from RM4,199” and in my opinion, it’s a little steep, especially for a Chromebook. Yeah, this is considered a premium Chromebook but you can also get some other ASUS Vivobook laptops for about that price with similar specs but maybe not the same all-metal build quality too.

There are hardly any tablets in this display size range anymore. For subnotebooks, on the other hand, it is the standard format.

The advantage of subnotebooks is that the entire laptop can be small and therefore easily portable. The smaller display also has the advantage of requiring less power, which further improves battery life and thus mobility. The disadvantage is that reading texts is more strenuous on the eyes. High resolutions are more likely to be found in standard laptops.
