It’s not often you can score a decent laptop at a budget-tier price, but this Asus Vivobook fits the bill. While it normally goes for $700, right now you can get the Asus Vivobook 15 at B&H for a mere $550.
This isn’t some stripped-down device that can barely load Windows. It’s sporting good specs, a lightweight build, and an above-average display. We’re talking an Intel Core i7-1355U processor, 16GB of RAM, 1TB of SSD, rounded out with a 15.6-inch 1080p IPS display for gorgeous visuals and color accuracy. Does it have a dedicated graphics card? No, but it does have Intel Iris Xe integrated graphics for light gaming. Honestly, you can’t expect a good discrete graphics card at this price.
Weighing just 3.75 pounds, it’s pretty portable. And while we do wish the 42-watt-hour battery was bigger, it should be good enough for several hours of work on a full charge. Other features include an HDMI 1.4 port, three USB-A and one USB-C, a 3.5mm headset jack, a backlit keyboard, and a 720p built-in webcam with privacy shutter.
If you’ve been looking for a decently configured laptop that’s affordable, this Asus Vivobook 15 is right for the price at B&H.
This Asus laptop strikes a great balance. Get it now for $550
