The ASUS Vivobook Go 15 is a budget-friendly laptop that comes with an Intel Celeron N4020 processor, 4 GB of RAM, and 64 GB of storage, making it suitable for basic tasks like web browsing, document editing, and media consumption. Its 15.6-inch display features a TN panel with a resolution of 1920 x 1080, which is sufficient for general use, although TN panels usually offer narrower viewing angles compared to IPS panels. The laptop isn't designed for gaming or intensive engineering tasks due to its modest processor and integrated Intel UHD Graphics 600. With a weight of 3.46 pounds and a thickness of 0.71 inches, it offers moderate portability. It has a battery life suitable for short-term use away from an outlet, and the build includes standard connectivity options like USB-C and HDMI. It runs on Windows 11S, meaning it has certain limitations on software installation compared to full versions of Windows. The Vivobook Go 15 may appeal to users looking for an affordable, basic laptop with a larger screen. Give Feedback
