Although we don’t have to be too harsh on a laptop from this price range, we can’t help but be disappointed by some decisions made by ASUS. First, the upgradability seems okay, and even though the laptop supports 2.5-inch SATA drives, you would need to buy the accessories, needed to connect such devices separately. When it comes to the performance, we have to mention that our device came with 8GB of soldered memory. This means it ran at a single channel, which hindered the iGPU performance by quite a bit. However, it seems like the weird-looking cooling solution does a decent job in cooling this laptop’s processor. Although it doesn’t match more premium laptops, it manages to keep the frequency at or above the base clock speed, even under heavy workloads.

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.
