ASUS E410 Intel Celeron N4020 4GB 64GB 14-Inch HD LED Win 10 Laptop (Star Black)

[REVISED Apr 6 '24 for storage issues - see end.]I bought two of these. The oldest is 18 months old and still going strong (although the screen isn't as bright as the second one, which I never use except to update it). My first one was just $150USD and now the same model has gone up by $40USD. It's still a great buy.You can also find a nifty review on YouTube by the user First Look.***PROS:1. Excellent battery life. It really does last for 8+ hours provided you're not doing anything intensive like accessing a high-capacity USB HDD. Keep in mind that a bigger screen, a bigger built-in HD will drain your battery faster.2. Weighs 2.8 pounds (under 1.5KG).3. Still a great bargain at the current price (I bought two for $140 ea. over a year ago).4. The 14" LED screen works well for most purposes. I've noticed that my oldest one (18 months old) is losing brightness. But for the price, I'm not worried since I only anticipate 2-3 years' use out of it.5. Built tough like a tank - compare to Dell.6. Comes with Windows 10. The update to 11 is free. You'll lose some built-in HD space, but it's worth it.7. Built-in webcam and mic. I've used them for Skype and WhatsApp - not great quality but if you're traveling they'll do fine for those or Zoom.***CONS:1. Only 2 built-in USB ports. You'll need a USB hub. Note that a typical (unpowered) USB hub will not take a large-capacity USB drive. So if you want to run two of them, a powered USB hub helps, e.g.: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0BZ46YVRK/ [NOTE: I actually daisy that with a standard USB hub and plug the former's power connector into it. It doesn't short on me.]2. The built-in keyboard and mouse pad are minimally useful. For traveling, consider a small external pointing device and a roll-up keyboard. (Which is yet another reason to have a USB hub.)3. Very little useful space on the built-in solid state hard disk (about 38GB available for apps and data). A USB HD will fix that problem; for traveling use large-capacity memory sticks. IMPORTANT: you have to turn off Windows' restore points otherwise your on-board space will deteriorate quickly. Be sure you back it up when you get it (you'll need a USB CD drive or a bootable memory stick). I keep very few "data" files on it. [Keep the ESC key pressed for boot options.]4. Not terribly fast, the processors are rated at 1.1GB. Supposedly it can be overclocked but I've never tried. It's a nice addition to a desktop, but most certainly NOT a replacement.5. You need to know your way around Windows for the best results. For ex., I had to create my own batch file to run MSPaint. (It's designed to prefer MS Office 365 which I refuse to deal with. Consider Apache Open Office - it's free.) Even tho' the processor is 64bits, I've been pleasantly surprised by how many 32bit applications seem to run on it.6. The built-in speaker sound quality is **dreadful**, but one can't complain given the size and weight. For traveling consider bluetooth headphones/speakers or USB speakers.7. Keyboard keys aren't backlit, but then the keyboard isn't very useful as I noted. When I'm in bed w/ wife, I just use an external backlit keyboard (lots of choices here - I like: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BRMCPPZ5/ ... that said, if you're on a plane and the lights are off, you're probably just going to have to live with your cell instead ... there's just not enough space on a tray table. For my money, it's not worth paying more for a built-in backlit keyboard.8. Will not hibernate (see below).***HD SPACE NOTES (built-in HD):1. I get the best results from setting PAGEFILE.SYS to a min of 2000 and a max of 3000 (roughly 2G & 3G respec.). Go toAdvanced System Settings | Performance | Advanced (virtual mem) ... you have to restart afterwards.2. I can't get this to hibernate (an annoyance when traveling). However HIBERFIL.SYS still exists. I got an extra 1.5GB by disabling hiberneration with this command (run from the command prompt as an administrator or power shell):powercfg.exe /hibernate off

What a great little computer for such a small price! The screen lays flat which is a cool feature (though not sure when to use that haha). We only use this for updates to a medical machine so we only need something basic but we’re surprised at how fast and reliable this laptop is! Delivery was a little delayed (I’ve had this occur a few times lately so not particular to seller) but appreciate the updates and tracking.

I really wanted to like this laptop, but it’s been nothing but a disappointment. I understand it’s a budget option, but even basic tasks like opening a browser or checking emails take forever. The Intel Celeron N4020 processor is painfully slow, and with only 4GB RAM, the system lags constantly. Multitasking? Forget about it.The 64GB storage is also a joke—after Windows 11 (yes it comes with windows 11) and a few updates, there’s barely any space left. I couldn’t even install some essential software without getting low storage warnings. The HD display is dull and washed out, and the keyboard feels cheap and unresponsive.Unless you’re only planning to use this for the occasional document or offline notes, I’d recommend spending a bit more for something that won’t have you pulling your hair out in frustration. I regret this purchase.

It didn't come with Windows 10 like the title said (or used to say if they ever fix it). Had Windows 11 in S mode.The screen is not great, of course, but for a laptop this cheap, you can't expect much.Tip: you can easily turn off S mode, and you should. There are so many great Windows apps out there that aren't on Microsoft's store.Tip 2: tilt the screen back pretty far for the best angle/color/clarity.

I bought this to use for college. I’m just getting it set up and so far I love it. It’s not bad for something to start with.

Es muy bonito, lo único malos es que no lo recomiendo para trabajo, es demasiado lento si tenía una reunión en Teams con personas no me dejaba compartir pantalla, por la capacidad así que si es para cosas básicas es perfecto si lo vas a utilizar para cosas de trabajo no lo recomiendo

Gracias Amazon por su buen trabajo me encantó

Great for the price
