Asus VivoBook S15 S510UQ (i5-7200U, 940MX) Laptop Review

[Redaktion]

The Unfinished. Asus' multimedia-office newcomer compels with its elegant design and a particularly light and compact case, but can hardly keep up in the gaming area with its GeForce 940MX. Despite many good attributes, we cannot give a purchase recommendation to the device, which is not only due to the modest battery life.

What about the lenovo yoga 920?? And the new hp spectre x360 with quad-core cpu?

Given that the S510UN model has been announced in August, and the S510UN-EH76 is available in the US with both an 8550U and an MX150 for $899 USD at Newegg, I'm curious as to why this particular model was reviewed.  At least half of the criticisms about speed, gfx card, and so forth were addressed in the newer model, while the others could have been found out with a thorough review.

I also would have liked to have known if the M.2 slot was NVMe capable or not.

I really hope you guys go back and do an updated review with the newer hardware, as this doesn't seem to be telling the whole story at the moment.

Hi there!
I would like to see an in depht review about the M.2 slot and its characteristics.
Is it SATA or PciE? Or both?
So many users would be interested in upgrade the ssd in this M.2 slot and it seems there is quite no info about it. May be a comparison between different ssd cards in this slot M.2!
I really appreciate any help you guys can provide.

Hi, thanks for your good review. I want to ask you something that will clarify my thoughts. I will use some basic programs for my work and also office programs. I am thinking to buy "Asus S510uq" with i5 7.th gen, because it is very portable and looking good beside it looks has good performance. I also wonder how much fps approximately I will get in the medium settings with: fifa 18, assassin's creed black flag and origins, cs go and far cry primal, are they playable with this laptop. I am looking forward to hear you! Thanks
