ASUS VivoBook F512 Thin and Lightweight Laptop, 15.6” FHD WideView NanoEdge , AMD R5-3500U CPU, 8GB RAM, 256GB SSD, Backlit KB, Fingerprint Reader, Windows 10, Peacock Blue, F512DA-EB51

Great for the kind of gaming I do...with playing Sims 4. The speed is incredible and the picture is outstanding!

Looks pretty good but complicated compared to my previous laptop. Had a friend and my grandson, who are both very, very knowledgeable and capable, to help with issues I am having, to no avail. First, the cursor started jumping all around, when in use { some times clear to opposite side of screen } even after adjusting sensitivity and making it necessary to actually feel a click . It still jerks & jumps & now freezes up. Also it seldom will work to print and the actual page placement & size changes on the screen . I AM SO FRUSTRATED !!!!! If the return date had not passed, I WOULD RETURN IT !!!!!

The touchpad stop working, might be some software problem. Will require some troubleshooting. Other than that, works great. Big fan of asus

For work. School. Good battery. Lite weight. Sleek.

Terrible purchase. Not usually this critical but I’m very surprised that this is even a real product and that a manufacturer can even pass this as able to sell. Took 3 times to just get past the set up, kept getting frozen and had to reset it. Screen was blurry and had a strange glare. Seemed like it was going to break at anytime. Poor product.

This laptop seemed like a bargain, but it has presented a number of problems. The biggest issue is that one of the keys has broken repeatedly, and ASUS support tells me the only thing I can do is send it in. For one key, which Ive already replaced.

Just a heads up - Model F512DA-EB51 has a blank space for a mechanical hard drive, but no connectors for it. You are stuck with a single SSD.

Needed laptops in a pinch. Great price for the specs. Easy to use. Speedy. 2 thumbs up.

So far I love it. Great lower price laptop. Processor is fast. Screen brightness is good. Boots quickly thanks to its SSD Drive. It has a BACKLIT KEYBOARD which was the reason I chose it over other Ryzen 5s with the same specs. One thing: could use a bigger SSD but so do most ryzen 5 3500U laptops. Also, it has space for adding another 2.5 inch drive. I havent tried it for gaming. Its supposed to be good for some low specs gaming. Check videos in Youtube.

I bought the Ryzen 5/ 256GB SSD variant. At $479 in Nov of 2020, with a 156 screen, backlit keyboard with numeric keypad and these specs, this is a fantastic laptop for the money. The quality of the screen is great and the keyboard pretty comfortable. The sound is also remarkably good, in case you need to watch something through the built-in speakers.
