The VivoBook 14 scores well for its quad-core i5 processor, dedicated GPU, 8 GB of dual-channel RAM, SSD and matte IPS screen. However, there are some significant shortcomings, which our tests and review will reveal.

look at all 7 contenders in a screen section
only one is above 300nits
all of them has a crappy color space
any reasonable explanations for this phenomena?
small screens are always worse than big. why?

This is a terrible laptop
The battery is bad, runs out quickly
The speakers aren't great
The keyboard is good but you can't read the letters unless at night
The fingerprint reader does not work
It is slow, very little power

I am really disappointed in Asus and regret buying it!
