ASUS Vivobook Go 12 L210 11.6†Ultra-Thin Laptop, 2022 Version, Intel Celeron N4020, 4GB RAM, 64GB eMMC, Win 11 Home in S Mode with One Year of Office 365 Personal, L210MA-DS02

This is the third ASUS laptop I've used over the past fifteen years and as expected it's a solid device that does exactly what I need. While I don't plan on using it for any heavy-duty video editing or audio production it is more than qualified to use as a portable voice-over recording device, basic web browsing system, or for Zoom meetings. The screen is bright and easy to see but there is a definite sweet spot that you can adjust to preference simply by slightly changing the angle of the screen. Actually, I can see that being a plus if I'm ever using it for writing in a coffee shop or on an airplane because the person sitting next to me won't have an easy view of what I'm working on. The fact that this compact device runs Windows 11 is an absolute plus, because even though it eats a good chunk of the 64gb disk drive it's quite snappy when starting up or loading apps and it's also nice to know the operating system won't lose Microsoft's support for many years. One note, the trackpad and body really like to show fingerprints but a quick wipe with a microfiber cloth makes them less noticeable. Highly recommend this laptop for on the go writers or students, the full-size keyboard buttons are textured so you don't feel like you're typing on slippery wet chiclets and battery life is pretty decent as long as you're not connecting power-draining devices to the USB ports. The touchpad also doubles as a numpad and I've found my lazy method of typing tends to activate it accidentally but it's not a real problem as it's easily turned off with one touch. I've been away from Microsoft Office products for some time but can see having the free year of service being useful to those who require their apps for work. NOTE TO USERS: If the TouchPad stops working after login, check Windows 11 Touchpad settings. Sometimes it just turns itself off for no apparent reason! Definitely a software problem and not a flaw in the hardware.

This is a great mini laptop if you intend to use it for light-duty applications such as email, social media, internet browsing, internet shopping, Microsoft Word and Excel (Office 365), etc. It is not intended for heavy-duty applications such as gaming (good gaming laptops are $1,000+, not $150 to $200). The laptop does not have the processor speed, graphics card, memory or storage to handle high-demand applications. If you purchase the laptop for what it is intended for, your experience will be much better. The laptop is about as small as you would want if you are a touch typist and prefer a normal size keyboard. The keyboard provides good key travel and feedback and the touch pad can be used as a numeric key pad (a major plus for many users). As some of noted in their reviews, the keyboard is not lighted. However, the display normally provides enough light to use the laptop in the dark. Also, given the laptop's battery size, you would not really want the additional power draw on the battery. The battery will provide a good 10 to 20 hours of usage depending on what you are doing on the laptop. That said, when the laptop is shutdown, the battery does drain by approximately 20% each day. After several days of not using the laptop, you will need to plug it in to turn it on. This power consumption when shutdown is not so much a battery issue as an operating system setting. The laptop operates on Windows 11 S (intended for Microsoft approved applications) and it is specifically designed for quick startup. The startup time is similar to that of a Chrome Book. If you recall the small netbooks that preceded Chrome Books--this small laptop is a much better and much more capable netbook. For my purposes, I will gladly give up the additional battery life for the ability to quickly startup the laptop. The laptop has a great display. It is not a touch screen for those who want that feature. However, the display was clear, detailed and bright when watching highlights of the World Cup soccer games and when surfing the internet. The size and price of the laptop are very appealing--just make sure that you truly consider what you will be using it for.

I purchased this laptop for a very limited use and am reviewing it based on that. I take musical instrument lessons via Zoom. My computer is an iMac and as I spend my work hours stuck in my office, I didn’t want to sit there during something that’s supposed to be relaxing. I tried using my phone, but had difficulty with getting the sound clear enough. So, I decided to get a cheap Windows laptop. I saw this renewed at a great price and jumped on it. When I received, I was very pleasantly surprised to see that it looked brand new. There weren’t any scratches or dents anywhere. It was clean; not even fingerprints. The setup was easy and it updated to Windows 11 without any prompting. The only software issue that I had was it wouldn’t save my yahoo account. After that, I didn’t try to add any other accounts. Not a big issue for me because I usually access personal emails on my phone, but I think worth mentioning. Zoom did have a glitch when my webcam wouldn’t work. I went to troubleshoot and the laptop self-fixed. A tad of an inconvenience in the middle of a lesson that caused me to miss almost half of my class. But once fixed, it was okay. I did notice that it doesn’t seem to work as well in indoor lighting as my phone. I was in a fairly bright room, but I looked shadowed. I probably just need to do some tweaks. I’ve never had this issue with other webcams. I think the one thing that others might find an issue is the very limited hard drive space. Almost half of the 64 gigabytes was taken up by system software. There wasn’t much bloatware. I deleted the few non-Microsoft apps on there and still was almost half full. For my purposes, it doesn’t matter. However, if you plan on using this for school or business or anything else that requires some heavy lifting, you might want to consider something with a larger hard drive. Overall, for me it was a good buy. I’d recommend for light use.

Si el uso que le darás es básico (procesamiento de textos, navegación en internet, hojas de cálculo sencillas, presentaciones, etc;) es una excelente compra. Ligera, de calidad, ya veremos cómo se comporta al paso del tiempo. Leí muchas opiniones con problemas severos de batería, la verdad es que si la primera carga de la lap la haces de 3 horas (como especifica el manual) y no cierras la tapa de la lap mientras se está apagando la computadora (esto es hasta que se apaga el foquito blanco en "power") no te dará ningún problema, a mi me ha cumplido con el promedio de 10 a 11 horas de uso sin tema alguno.

I just started it up and wanted to go to my settings and it's already lagging like crazy. Not recommended.Man this was a money waste.

Ideal para lo que necesito. Práctica y fácil de llevar,muy fluida para sus componentes y lo mejor de todo 1 año de office. Superó mis expectativas

No la recomiendo yo pagué por un producto nuevo no usado o reacondicionado a la hora de prenderla ya tiene nombre de usuario y me pide un pin que obviamente no lo tengo yo no sé quién es José Aguilera.
