ASUS VivoBook X405UQ Review

If only ASUS gave the consumers the configuration of our test unit, then it would’ve been a steal for the price, though it would’ve also been too good to be true. In any case, the X405UQ performs quite well, has good video editing capabilities, high base RAM capacity, more than enough battery life for light tasks, a responsive trackpad, and an above average keyboard. It’s downsides though, such as its subpar audio, entry-level gaming capabilities, simple design, and non-backlit keyboard, might be deal breakers to some.
