With the Asus VivoBook X705MA-DH21-CA, you get a large and productivity-enhancing laptop. This budget and lightweight laptop give immersive visuals with great detail. It is the functional office laptop that holds a Full HD display across a 1600 x 900 screen resolution with an excellent sRGB gamut, Splendid visual optimization and Tru2Life Video technology. For data, it uses ‎8 GB DDR4, and a 1TB HDD allowing for large data storage. Also, it has great audio placement with good balance. To power all this, it makes use of the 8th Generation Intel® Core™ i7 processor resulting in an above-average performance for typical work across office and school. However, for more tasking processes like video editing and gaming, it can come short. It supports fast charging and has more than enough ports (3 standard USB ports, with 1 USB Type-C port) with a portable charger for easy carriage. This ASUS VivoBook comes with an aluminum cover finish which gives it a premium and strong finish.

Verdict

This low-range laptop can do just about what you would expect from a device of its calibre. However, it flunks the battery department but makes up for it with fast charging.
