It is a good laptop but what is your main use? If you're a student I would recommend going for normal range laptops that are suitable for everyday use, like acer swift 3/5 are pretty decent everyday laptops that are affordable and good for students, or dell latitude 3420 would be a more similar model to the asus one but slightly cheaper. Cheers!

Just saw this.

I bought the Asus Vivobook Pro 14 OLED to replace my Surface Laptop 3. I wanted something with a GPU in it but still somewhat portable because I travel. Game with an RTX 3050.

Here's the feedback I have on mine.

1. There's a slight screen flicker when scrolling. It seems to be a well known issue. It resolved itself but I have no idea how.
2. Audio is really low out of the box. hard to hear video conversations or youtube videos. Had to use an EQ software to get the volume to go higher.
3. Motherboard died within 2 months of buying. Took me about 3-4 weeks to get back from the Lowyat service center.

After I got it back.

#1 and #2 issues came back. Audio still is low, can't figure out how to fix it.


Would I buy it again? Probably not. But overall as a daily computer it works fine, can play Warzone on it ok.
