I like the look of this laptop but HATE that output port for a projector on the side.
Just saw this on the JL website - same laptop? It comes with a two year guarantee... JL Asus Laptop
If it is the same, maybe post that as a deal. :thumbsup:

LOL, I believe this was about £150 more when I checked, price match?? Agree JL is probably the better supplier W1

It seems a rather unbalanced spec. Why pay extra for a 7500U over a 7200U or 7100U when it doesn't even have an SSD?

Lack of SSD is a performance killer bottleneck. Very unbalanced. A shame windows dumped the easy to see bottleneck disk/cpu/display ratings screen.

Because you can easily change the hard drive. But you can't the CPU.

Hmm, not sure I'd want to go through that with a brand new warrantied machine (at least the prying plastic apart bit).....

It's standard for many compact notebooks and netbooks, no big deal. You do one you done a million.

Don't disagree that a SDD would be good, rip out the 1th into a caddy and buy a 128 SSD
Job done :nerd:

Asus screens are typically awful. If it's not ips double check it's a decent panel.

Not bad for what it is but I would echo those that say that this should come with an SSD to maximise it''s performance capabilities.
Coffee Lake arrives on 21st, so can see these machines being discounted before the end of the year.

The Dell Inspiron 7560 is better imo. Has graphics card and very thin bezel. Asus have also just released the Vivobook S with a very thin bezel. Can only see the i7 but it was literally released last week
