Asus Zenbook Flip UX461U 14" Full HD Touch 2-in-1 Laptop: Core i7-8550U, 16GB RAM, 512GB SSD, , Backlit Keyboard, Fingerprint Reader, Windows 10

Ill answer the question that I posed (since Amazon wont allow me to answer my own question) about whats up with the USB-C port. Turns out that it is good for data transfer (including USB 3.1 Gen 2...the really fast version), but cant be used as a HDMI out port, and cant work with the USB PD (for charging the laptop). Im not sure how much power it provides, but I just bought a USB-C to 10 port AC powered USB-A 3.1 Gen 1 port replicator that has 3 fast charge ports, so I dont have to worry about it. Nice machine so far (brand new). No complaints. Im hoping the extra cores and threads will speed my video editing.

I had bought my both my sons Solid state asus laptops 4 years ago, they were both over speced but are still perfect for college and high school work respectively. The design means they are thin, light and boot and respond quickly. This computer is of course light years beyond theirs and I have to say I am loving it. the flexibility of going from a tablet to a laptop to attaching it to a 24" monitor to use at a desk is just almost beyond my belief. Since my first computer was a brand new Apple II and my second was 6 Mhz all big blue IBM AT, and had so many in between that I have lost count it is remarkable when I say, I will remember this one for a long time.

The FHD 1080p screen is great. The backlit keyboard is a must have these days. the best part is that under a normal load (like most web sites) the processor fan is never on and stays cool on your lap. Ill never regret purchasing a new laptop with 16 Gb of ram. There is enough for every thing I run with plenty to spare. the one and only downside about this ASUS UX461FN is the fingerprint reader, it just does not work well enough for daily use.

Im an avid gamer but bought this for work. Big fan of ASUS products in general and havnt been disappointed with their products with the exception of paying a premium for them. Its a decent gaming machine if you dont mind running at low settings or 720p. Much more situated for a casual game like Civilization or a City Builder rather than the latest frame bending triple A title. Definitely not my cup of tea for trying to game on it for more than an hour at a time unless I just had to out of shear lack of options. But its a power house for office work. Screen is bright and vibrant. Surprisingly even after heavy touch screen use it didnt get much smudges on it like a tablet does. Touch screen is very responsive. Movies look great with the 16:9 ratio and fill up the whole screen. I didnt miss a 4k display with this screen. It was fine. The keyboard didnt need much time getting used to coming from full sized keyboards it definately doesnt feel as squished as a 13" laptop. Like others Ive had issues with the fingerprint reader. Its got about a 50% success rate on my use. Speakers have a wide range and can get very high or very low. Can be used easily in bed even if someone is trying to sleep next to you and still audible at the low settings. At the very high settings theres an atrocious amount of frame vibration after 75%+ from the speakers other wise the speakers are solid. Its a little big and clunky if you just want it for lounging around the house to surf the web, even in tablet mode. Its nice to have a full featured laptop light enough to carry around but its almost too much for just sitting on the couch. Much more comfortable on a desk or table especially if you plan to work on it for a long period of time. Overall a good laptop. For my needs Im happy with the purchase. Would recommend to anyone who wants light gaming experience but solid work computer. But for anyone that takes gaming seriously; look elsewhere.

This computer works out perfectly for my son who is going to be a junior in art school. The speed of the processor gives him immediate response when drawing on the touch screen.

Overall I kind of liked it actually. I havent had a lot of computer like this so I think I Wont be able to provide some kind of comparison. The touchscreen although is glassy and the stoke with the pen is very accurate and sharp. Although the fingerprint sensor is kind of very inaccurate and in order to make it to work so you can sign in to your windows account youll have to scan and re scan as many times as possible until your laptop configuration finger print assistant tells you that the fingerprint has been already registered.

I am enjoying this new laptop computer. It is doing everything I expected. I am still learning about its features but find it has readily met my immediate needs. Delivery and first-use was simple and I had no problem getting started. It will be interesting to see developments of these devices by Asus and would be great to see versions with a smaller screen sizes to consider.
