ASUS Vivobook S 14 Copilot+ PC 14" WUXGA OLED Windows Laptop Intel Core Ultra 7 Series 2 258V AI PC Intel Evo 32GB RAM 1TB SSD Black

I was looking for a laptop to replace my very old and slow Microsoft Surface that had served me well. I wanted something with great battery life, good overall specs and that would last for the next 3+ years without concern. I wanted Windows Hello, 32GB of RAM, 1TB NVMe storage and over 10 hours of battery with OLED display. This laptop checked all the boxes with great battery life, performance and features. I like the backlit RGB keyboard, the touchpad is very responsive and easy to use and keyboard is easy to type on. I really think Asus knocked it out of the park with this device in terms of the form factor and build quality. I had a previous Asus Vivobook from about 10 years ago and it also was very good for its day and time. This is really a step up and competes with models costing much more money. Highly recommend if you are looking for a portable power house that is up to the challenge of day to day use while traveling.

I got a 16GB memory model. Set-up was easy (for Win11), little bloatware (silly color-lights keyboard app can be removed). Plenty power for intense web-surfing and fancy email. Also YouTube. Maybe not fast shooter games, I don't do that. Keyboard not stellar but not disappointing. Trackpad but not touchscreen (I prefer a mouse anyway). Not a great machine, but (w/16GB and on sale) VERY good value for money. Works well on lap. Does not get hot. Very nearly silent.
