The Asus VivoBook is a solid laptop, and if you can look beyond a handful of compromises it could be a great everyday device for many years to come. https://www.lenovo.com/au/en/p/laptops/thinkpad/thinkpadp/ThinkPad-P1-Gen-5-(16-inch-Intel)/21DC001QAU Despite some fairly sizeable bezels, the VivoBook also feels well future-proofed and should be capable of running the latest version of Windows 10 for many years. Nonetheless, for comparison, the cheaper Lenovo IdeaPad S340 and Honor MagicBook 14 recorded 14:26 and 10:43. These are the top two entries in our It's time to break free from everyday limitations with ASUS VivoBook 14.

best budget laptop chart at the time of writing, so it shows Asus still has work to do in that regard. It’s also not great for outdoor visibility, as even at maximum brightness it was hard to make out in direct sunlight. We recorded just 250 nits on the highest setting, considerably down on many competitors. https://www.currys.co.uk/products/asus-vivobook-15-m1502ia-15.6-laptop-amd-ryzen-7-512-gb-ssd-blue-10241281.html Compatibility】- Asus Zenbook UX301LA UX301L UX301 UX430 UX430U UX430UA UX430UQ UX430UN UX303 UX303U UX303UB UX303UA UX303L UX303LA UX303LB UX303LN UX330 UX330U UX330UA UX330C UX330CA UX305 UX305C UX305CA UX305F UX305FA UX305L UX305LA UX305U UX305UA UX360 UX360C UX360CA UX360U UX360UA UX310U UX331UN UX331U UX331 UX410 UX410U UX410UA UX410UQ UX433FLC UX433FL UX433FN UX433FA UX433F UX433 UX434FLC UX434FL UX434FAC UX434FA UX434F UX434FQ UX434 UX461UN UX461UA UX461U UX461 Asus Zenbook Charger.

This is the same spec if you find the look of the other one off-putting: https://www.box.co.uk/9S7-158314-065-MSI-Pulse-GL66-Intel-Core-i9-16GB-RAM-1_4103715.html It's for a PC, big monitor. I've currently got a 2nd hand HP All-in-One, but a standard separate-tower PC will do fine. Should I still aim for i7? To enable Performance Mode, please keep the laptop plugged in for the best performance, set the Windows power option as ASUS Recommended Mode, and select Performance Mode in the MyASUS software (or switch using the Fn + F hotkey combination). https://www.currys.co.uk/products/acer-aspire-5-15.6-laptop-amd-ryzen-5-512-gb-ssd-grey-10239488.html Buy It Direct Ltd is a limited company registered in England.

You work at BID, what a legend.

How does the above laptop look to someone who knows about these things? I’m a bit out of the loop with laptops at the moment

Not surprisingly, the Asus has no numberpad, a single-height Return key, some extra buttons on the right and smaller function and cursor keys – entirely ordinary stuff for such a petite machine. The VivoBook model I tested comes with a 10th generation Intel Core i7-10510U processor,alongside 8GB of RAM and a 512GB SSD. On the graphics side, you get Intel’s own UHD Graphics 620. These elements all combine to ensure performance is excellent across the board.

There’s not much real innovation here (unless you consider the fluorescent enter key to be!), with the VivoBook prioritising everyday usage.

This one would be fine: https://www.currys.co.uk/products/lenovo-ideapad-3i-15.6-laptop-intel-core-i5-256-gb-ssd-blue-10242283.html It's fine, but definitely on the expensive side for the spec. I'd assume it's the large SSD bumping the price up.

The Intel processor is a solid everyday chip, but AMD’s Ryzen CPUs and the Apple M1 processor are both far better in tough work applications. https://www.box.co.uk/82K200C3UK-Lenovo-ideaPad-Gaming-3-AMD-Ryzen-5-8GB-_3638080.html - this has a better CPU and a dedicated graphics card and is cheaper. That said, you do give up the aspect of upgradability if buying a laptop, as generally all you can really upgrade is the RAM and SSD (and even that's not possible in all cases). Also, you'll be likely to have a larger display with a desktop and a desktop is less likely to get physically damaged than a laptop due to the fact you generally find somewhere to put it and leave it there. https://www.lenovo.com/au/en/p/laptops/thinkpad/thinkpade/ThinkPad-E15-Gen-4-(15-inch-Intel)/21E60067AU That bottom one doesn’t look too bad, but again would the rtx 3070 be a bit overkill just for playing FM & watching movies/series?

Finally, the speakers here are nothing special. They’re fine for YouTube videos and casual music, but the mid-range is muddy and the bass is weak, so don’t rely on these for top-notch sound. Screen – A punchy, decent everyday display One word of warning: the model reviewed here uses the UX435EA part number, but the previous generation machine is also still available using the UX433 designation. Those laptops include Intel 10th-Gen processors, wider bezels and no fingerprint reader, so make sure you’re getting the more up-to-date notebook. Design and keyboard – Good looking, robust and a solid range of features https://www.currys.co.uk/products/acer-aspire-3-15.6-laptop-intel-core-i5-512-gb-ssd-silver-10243540.html The VivoBook’s benchmark results are on a par with the Intel-based Acer Swift 5, and its single-threaded result beats the Lenovo’s AMD chip – but the Yoga was significantly faster in PCMark 10 and Geekbench’s multi-core test, proving it’s better for demanding workloads.
