Reviews for the Asus VivoBook S400CA-CA002H

70% ASUS VivoBook S400CA
Source: APC Mag English

While the VivoBook uses lower-end hardware, it’s at a level where Windows 8 is fast and responsive, without power you don’t need going to waste. Thanks to the quality build and slim form, you could easily convince people it’s an ultrabook. Amazingly, if you shop around you can pick up the S400CA for under $700, which in our books makes it a great bargain.
