At least at the sale price of about $400 this is a very solid deal with a Chrisp Brite display, comfortable keyboard, accurate touchpad, and best of all with Asus the preloaded windows is fairly clean without needing much junk removal before it's ready for use.

The Vivobook F1605VA is a good budget computer. It was easy to set up, has a nice screen and is plenty fast for everyday computing. If you are not a power user this would be a good computer for you. My one complaint is it is a fingerprint magnet. After one day it looked like I had been using it for months with the spots on it. It does not affect the use of it but it is worth noting. My only other complaint is not about the laptoop itself. I was promised a three month extension for a review which I did and it has never been activated. I am trying again but I am not optimistic it will happen. They provide a link to do it on their website and it wants you to pick the product from a list of thousands of products. I typed the model number in the search and this one did not show up. My first review was on the closest one and that my be why it didn't work but why is this one not there. This is not a life or death kind of thing, but it is aggravating to have things promised and either not make them available or make them extremely difficult to obtain.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Asus laptops are top rated in their price range. Owned one prior to this purchase. The online order price was great but only for online orders. I was told the store could not honor the discount price on this for an in-store purchase. I think that is a bad policy and puts Walmarts price match program in possible legal binds.

it stopped wirking within 48 hrs of unboxing. would not turn on.

the battery does not charge all the time when plugged in. i have to return it.

i really liked the backlit full size keyboard and it handled everything I put it through, never getting too hot or too loud. But the battery life wasn't the greatest, I averaged a little more than 4 hours of hard use in between charges.

This is a good budget laptop for college student it has its flaws like the battery doesn't last very long or the keyboard bad past that runs smooth and stays cool

My husband prefers an Asus. He has Asus parts in his desktop that he built. He is visually impaired and loves the capability of increasing the font size up to 200% of this laptop . done Asus!

I have my desk where I put my laptop, it hasn't fallen, it hasn't been hit, I haven't had a minute where it's asking me for an update and when I turn it back on one side of the screen doesn't turn on. I'm asking you to change it for me.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this laptop for a needy friend. I couldn't be more satisfied with the features and price.
