Review: Very happy with this purchase, so far. - UPDATE: It has been exactly a year since the purchase of this laptop. Though I am very fond of it still, the SSD has slowly failed, causing me to experience increasingly frequent Critical_Process_Failed BSODs over the last few weeks. A quick 15 minute online chat with support this evening, and I have an RMA number and label to ship it back for repair. I've had this a few weeks now, and it is a great system. I chose this as a replacement for my Asus RoG G51J for several reasons. The Windows 10 Anniversary update broke some things, but that has been my experience on my other computers as well. I chose this system because I like the Asus brand. I worked as a computer tech for a number years, so familiar with the quality of components. It was has a good warranty and an accidental damage warranty on top of it, and my credit card offers an extension on the manufacturer's warranties as well, so I was sure to use that card. I wanted a 4k screen, I have good eyesight, and you'll need to it to put Windows in that native resolution, without magnifying text. Though this is a 15.6" I think I would have gone with a 17" with the 4k display if I was to do it again. The processor is fast, the memory is plentiful, and the lack of a traditional spindle hard drive conserves power, heat, and sound. Not to mention data transfer rates are better on average. I did buy a micro 128GB USB 3.0 drive to leave in the USB port for insignificant storage space for things like downloads and temp files. Asus does have its own Cloud Service that comes with the laptop, I already have 3 other clouds, plus a NAS that I use, so I won't be using the Asus one. I didn't think that I would use the touchscreen at all (I hate fingerprints on my screen) but I was playing a stupid facebook game, and it came in handy. I've done more productive stuff on this system, like video editing. Which brings up a slight inconvenience, if you need an optical drive, you'll have to get an external. I bought an USB 3.0 Asus BluRay writer that will sit on my desk. At this point, I don't think I will need a mobile optical drive. I haven't been able to confirm yet, but it seems that the airflow is unconventional on this unit. Gladly it does not expel hot air from the sides but seems it does from the bottom vents, with the intake between the hinges of the screen and body I can see plusses and minuses with that design, but to date, I have not had any heat issues yet. I know other people have experienced issues with the touchpad and typing. I have not had these issues. My issue is a third finger touching the touchpad which disrupts my work by showing me the desktop or all the windows I have open, even if I turn the feature off. Hopefully this will be resolved in a later driver release. This laptop has a stylish look, and much of the horsepower you would find in a gaming laptop, In my line of work it was a better choice to have as a desktop replacement than to keep my old Asus RoG laptop. I feel much better going tin front of a client with this impressive system.
Review: Outstanding/Top Notch/World Class Laptop with Only One Real Drawback (Moderate Screen Reflection) - Here are some things I love about this amazing laptop: (1) extremely fast start-up and fast load of applications, (2) ping of only 1 millisecond when I tested my Internet speed -- I never got anything below 5 milliseconds on my other very powerful desktop, (3) little to no "bloatware" -- the laptop didn't come with "junk" free trial software, (4) 4k resolution is awesome, especially when I connect the laptop to one of my 4k TVs, and (5) the trackpad took me a little while to get used to, but I really like the functionality it provides. From building computers for myself with the "raw" parts in the past, I came to know Asus as a very high quality producer of motherboards. However, after using my new laptop for almost a week I can tell that they are also world class when it comes to their laptops. I also like that even though the price is very reasonable, this machine still has very strong technical specifications (e.g., 16 GB of fast RAM and a solid video card). From watching several YouTube videos covering this laptop, the main downsides people talked about include (1) the reflection in the screen where you can see your reflection in the screen, (2) speakers that are not very loud, and (3) some reviewers pointed out the "up" arrow key that is close t othe right "Shift" key on the keyboard taht might be accidentally pressed instead of the Shift key. Yes, it is true that the screen a good amount of reflection in it if you are looking at a dark screen in a relatively bright environment (e.g., outside). The only times I really notice this are when I am logging in and the screen is dark. Most screens I use on the laptop have a relatively white background (e.g., Google, Microsoft Word, Excel, etc.), so I rarely notice this. However, this is what I see as the main drawback of this laptop. It is true that the speakers are not extremely loud, but I'm happy to use headphones so this doesn't bother me. The up arrow being next to the right "Shift" key has not bothered me at all. Not even once have I accidentally pressed it instead of the Shift key. I really love this laptop and am very happy that I purchased it. I hope you found this to be helpful.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is this windows 10 (64 bit) signature edition version like windows 10pro, so you can connect via vpn to a domain.**
A: Yes, this model includes Windows 10 Professional  (64 bit). I called ASUS directly about this because I had the same question.  The only difference between this UX501VW model ending in "-US71T" and the other model that Amazon sells, ending in "-DS71T" is the Windows version.  The "DS" variant is Windows 10 Home and the "US" variant is Windows 10 Pro.

**Q: I use adobe premiere and after effects which causes my macbook to overheat, would this computer overheat using the same programs?**
A: I don't know if this helps, but I use Adobe Lightroom and Photoshop very heavily. I've never, ever had even a slight heat problem. And trust me, when Lightroom is creating 500 1:1 previews, the machine is getting taxed very heavily.

**Q: How does it handle editing HD video?**
A: This notebook has 4K video and can handle ANY type of HD you put in it. For example 2K is 1440P so all you will have to do is the math.

**Q: Does it have a rj45 ethernet port**
A: No, it does not have LAN/RJ45 Ethernet port for wired internet connection.

### ⭐ Laptop is great until anything goes wrong
*by S***S on March 3, 2018*

This laptop works just fine — the problem is the charger, and Asus in general. After 6 months of no problems, my charger gave out and replacing the charger has been impossible. No one, and I’m including Asus, seems to carry a charger that fits the charge port. (I have a warranty, the charger is not included). Initially, I tried looking for a deal on replacement chargers at physical retailers and online, but no one had a charger that fit my laptop. Eventually, I gave up and bought a charger directly from Buss — and it still won’t fit the charge port for my laptop! It sucks because I really did like this laptop, but it’s a waste of metal now because the charger is fried and I don’t know where I can get another ! Please please please don’t buy this laptop. I don’t want anyone else to wind up in my situation. Out $1000 for a laptop that works but no charger to power it with.
