Reviews for the Asus VivoBook 15 X515EA-BQ943T

76% Asus VivoBook 15 X515EA Review
Source: ARS Guide English
The Asus VivoBook 15 strikes a nice balance between price, its premium design, and its highly portable design while delivering strong all-round performance and good connectivity without being too expensive. The battery life won’t break any records, and the screen would be better and brighter, but it’s still a respectable laptop with 1080p resolution and a capable Intel ‘Tiger Lake’ processor. If I were in a rush and needed a so-called reliable laptop to perform a few quick deeds, this would certainly carry me through. It has enough power to run day-to-day tasks, it looks beautiful and it doesn’t cost so much. The idea that the Asus VivoBook 15 X515EA packs power to power you through a few years makes this an enticing laptop for work and college.

15.60":

15-inch display variants are the standard and are used for more than half of all laptops.

The reason for the popularity of mid-sized displays is that this size is reasonably easy on the eyes, often allows high resolutions and thus offers rich details on the screen, yet does not consume too much power and the devices can still be reasonably compact - simply the standard compromise.
