The ASUS R410MA is significantly less expensive than the HP Envy x360 15", but it has half the storage and RAM, a lower-end Intel Celeron processor, and a lower resolution screen that does not support touch. It's also lighter than the HP, which may make it more portable. The HP Envy, while more costly, offers a more powerful AMD Ryzen processor, better graphics capabilities, double the storage and RAM, a higher resolution touchscreen display, and longer battery life. If you need higher performance for tasks like 3D modeling, machine learning, or engineering, and prefer a touch display, the HP Envy is worth the extra investment. However, if your usage is more general and budget is a priority, the ASUS could suffice. Give Feedback

The HP Envy x360 15" has a better screen than the ASUS R410MA for general use, gaming and AI, engineering and design, content creation, and software development.
The ASUS R410MA's lower resolution and dimmer display compromise its visual clarity and color vibrancy, making it less enjoyable for general use and inadequate for the precise color work in engineering and design. The HP Envy x360's higher resolution and better brightness offer clearer and more comfortable viewing for everyday activities and more accurate color representation for professional work, though its fair screen quality doesn't match the top displays in these fields. Both laptops lack the high refresh rates and superior panels needed for optimal 3D experiences, which can hinder the smooth visuals that are critical to immersive gaming and effective 3D modeling.

Matthew Buzzi | August 2021
"The Asus Laptop L410 is a super-affordable PC, even among budget notebooks, compromising on the display and processing power to deliver a serviceable Windows machine with good battery life and useful ports. The build is reasonably solid, there’s a good mix of ports, battery life is long enough, and it can perform basic everyday tasks. On the flip side, the screen is poor, anything other than basic tasks is a tough ask, and it has little memory and even less storage."

"Despite its good looks, stellar webcam and comfortable keyboard, the Envy x360 15 is hard to recommend because of its dim, 16:9 display. If the display isn't an issue for you, just be sure to wait for a good sale price. Otherwise, a more modern two-in-one with a 16:10 display such as the Dell Inspiron 16 2-in-1 or Lenovo Yoga 7i 16 provides a larger workspace without adding much to the size and weight of the system."
