Asus ExpertBook B5 Flip review: Capable work laptop for people on-the-go
Source: Business Standard English
Being an enterprise-focused laptop, the Asus ExpertBook B5 Flip is eligible for custom configuration service offered by Asus to businesses. Therefore, it does not have a fixed price tag or configuration. However, Asus said the laptop’s standard package starts at Rs 1,15,000 (excluding taxes). That said, there is nothing missing here: the laptop has a sturdy construction, decent screen, spill-resistant backlit keyboard and touchpad, and a host of I/O options including legacy and modern ones. It is a compelling option if you are in the market looking for a compact work laptop.

100% Asus ExpertBook B5 Flip review: A well-connected compact convertible
Source: It Pro English
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.

86.5% Asus ExpertBook B5 Flip OLED in review: 2-in-1 laptop with Active Stylus and good runtimes | Notebookcheck
The flagship of the B5 Flip is a large, matte 16-inch OLED touchscreen in a work-friendly 16:10 format (3,840 x 2,400 pixels). With Intel's Arc-A350M GPU, a relatively new, so far rarely encountered entry-level graphics core is on board.

Asus: ASUSTeK Computer Inc. is a major Taiwanese computer hardware manufacturer based in Taipei, founded in 1989. Under the Asus brand name, the company manufactures a wide range of products, including laptops, desktops, motherboards, graphics cards, monitors, smartphones and networking equipment, complete systems and PC components for end users.

Under the ROG (Republic of Gamers) brand name, ASUS manufactures gaming laptops known by gamers for their powerful specifications, dedicated graphics cards, high refresh rate displays and advanced cooling systems.

Beyond gaming, a wide range of notebooks are offered for different needs and budgets, from ultra-slim and lightweight ultrabooks to versatile 2-in-1 convertibles and budget-friendly options. In 2023, Asus had a 7% global market share of the PC market.

Customer satisfaction with ASUS notebooks concerns performance, the features, and the good price-performance ratio of ASUS notebooks. However, as with any brand, there are occasional reports of problems such as overheating, driver compatibility, or build quality issues.

14.00:

14 inch display size represents a middle ground between the small subnotebook formats and the screens of the standard 15 inch laptops.

The reason for the popularity of mid-sized displays is that this size is reasonably easy on the eyes, provides good resolutions with usable detail sizes, yet does not consume too much power and the devices can still be reasonably compact. 

In the past, 14-inch devices were very rare, but now they are the standard for laptops after the 15-inchers. 

16.00:

This range for display formats was and is a rarity. It is larger than the general standard of 15 inches, but not yet in the range of large workstations. One usually has higher screen resolutions available, but portability suffers from that.
