Reviews for the Asus ExpertBook B5 Flip B5402F, i7-1260P

100% Asus ExpertBook B5 Flip review: A well-connected compact convertible
Source: It Pro
The B5 Flip's main strength is its sheer versatility. Besides the usual 2-in-1 origami, it's the presence of a gigabit LAN connector, two Thunderbolt ports and a 10Gbit/s USB Type-A that should draw your attention. Compare that to what's on offer from machines like the MacBook Air and Dell XPS 13 Plus. The B5 makes a good case for itself in other areas too: The display is good, the sound system is above par and the performance from the Alder Lake Core i7 chipset is more than enough for most enterprise needs. Asus has added some useful hardware and software features too like the stylus garage and the ExpertWidget. A faster SSD would have been nice and the 720p webcam is thin gruel compared to what's on offer from the likes of Apple and Huawei these days but other than that the B5 Flip is a thoroughly convincing and good value package.
