Features
The Vivobook 15 strikes an excellent balance between size of display and portability while still providing a solid all-round performance.
Performance
One of the most notable features of Vivobook 15 is the reliable performance from the AMD Quad Core Ryzen 5 3500U processor that it’s equipped with. This results in a fairly fast performance, clocking up to 3.6 GHz.
It also has a sturdy and responsive keyboard, which allows for seamless typing experience. Thus, you don’t have to worry about lagging behind when you’re taking notes in class.
Storage
This laptop uses the most recent generation DDR4 RAM, which boasts a better performance, reduced power consumption and improved data integrity. You’ll get 8GB of DDR4 RAM to work with, which is more than enough for storing crucial documents and files related to your coursework.
Connectivity
If you perform a lot of data transferring, you will appreciate this laptop’s range of connections. They include a USB 3.2 Type-C, USB 2.0, USB 3.2 and HDMI. It also supports wireless connectivity via Wi-Fi 5 (802.11ac).
Battery Life
The battery life is one area where this laptop falls a bit short. But, this doesn’t come as a surprise as it employs a very powerful processor. Besides, powering a 15.6-inch display also consumes a considerable amount of power.
Our Recommendation
Although Vivobook 15 won’t win any awards in the battery department, it’s a decent offering if you’re looking for a lightweight computer that doesn’t skimp on function. Its 15.6-inch screen provides ample working space, and the quad core Ryzen processor is powerful enough for demanding tasks.
