Mixed feelings
By drK
So I've had this laptop about a month. My #1,2 and 3 criteria were weight and I LOVE LOVE LOVE how light this is. For the first time ever, I have a functional laptop I can carry around with me which I love. Did I mention how light it is? It starts up super-fast which makes it extremely usable. Did I mention the weight? That, I think, is the saving grace on this laptop. It is thin, small, and easy to pop in my bag and carry around. The screen is small, but for me, weight was the main need, so it is functional. If this were your main computer, I think you would want a 13" screen.I actually like the touchscreen aspect. I think in a few years, this will be a nice feature. I saw a few years because it is too early in the technology now. The overall design of the Asus is lovely and it's a beautiful and well-designed interface.BUT, and I'm afraid there are a lot of buts...I researched laptops obsessively for a year and finally said: I need to get *something*. If you have another year to wait, I think I would recommend that before buying something new now. I should also say I am NOT a computer geek who knows a lot about computers. I am an average person, using average programs (word, excel, STATA, internet, email), and I can't always understand the complicated workarounds that might fix some of my complex win 8 problems.--It is true that the battery length is terrible (in my experience, about 3.5 hrs for routine internet surfing, email, Microsoft word, excel, etc. I haven't tried anything like watching videos or gaming. The extended battery is nice design-wise and adds a lot of battery time, but then takes away from the light weight, so it's a tradeoff. If you needed constant extended battery time AND very, very light-weight, this is not the computer for you. I don't use the battery for routine use but will need to take it along when I travel.--Windows 8 is terrible. I think this is the source of most of my issues...some programs I use regularly aren't easily compatible and can take hours to figure out how to go thru unusual efforts to download, Internet Explorer and MS Word stall constantly and crash frequently. I haven't quite resorted to going back to Windows 7 (hoping for an update) but I think about it daily. I've read all the tips on how to improve win 8, and I have been very patient, and I'm better than I was initially, but it just is a very amateur program with lots of on-going problems. I do think it was probably too early for release of this program. In a year, with revisions, it will probably work much better, and the learning curve is not as bad as people say. Win8 apps are not great--many of them lack the functionality of regular programs. For example, the app for internet explorer saves you time (easy to just touch the icon to start) but doesn't let you save favorites or have a toolbar, so it's not very practical. Many of the apps are like this--just easier to use regular programs than half-functional apps. The apps on my iPhone are much better.--The touchpad on the Asus seems over-over-over sensitive. I'm constantly finding myself sending emails before they are done, inadvertantly increasing or decreasing my font size just because I have touched the touchpad in some unusual way. I still haven't quite figured out how this is working or how to fix it but it's just annoying. Not sure if that is a win8 or Asus problem. That said, I like the ability to easily magnify text just by touch because the 11" screen is small. Hopefully I'll figure this out eventually.Do I regret my purchase? Well, no, because if weight is your top criteria and you need a full-fledged laptop, there just isn't much out there to beat this. The design is gorgeous, keyboard is nice (one key sticks), and overall I can deal or work around the flaws with my needs. But this wouldn't work for everyone. If I had been able to wait a year, I think that would have been ideal. Hopefully there will be upgrades to win 8 and things will be better. If not, I may be looking for another computer in a year or two.

Defective right out of the box.
By bickberry
I couldn't wait to receive this laptop, but I was disappointed immediately. The screen had a 1/4 inch spot that was gray when the screen was black. (It wasn't noticable with most colors.) I paid extra for one day shipping and they offered a replacement in four days. I asked for a refund. I'll buy a MAC.

Not quite ready
By B. Grant
This Laptop OS was not quite ready for release, First: IE crashes all the time, the browser is almost non funtional, I use Firefox, and it works great, Second: when you put the laptop in airplane mode, it will not reconnect or see other wifi systems when told to do so, you have to put the laptop in troubleshooting mode to make it reconnect to the wifi system, Third: The fan runs very loud, like a jet engine. If you want a quiet laptop, this one is not for you. The fan runs anytime video runs and sometimes when your just checking email. Now there are some good things about this laptop,it comes with a bluetooth mouse, extended battery, and usb video and usb eithernet cables, also with a really nice carry pouch. The i5 chip and graphics work well. The laptop is maybe the thinest and lightest one in its class. Its a little overpriced for how it performs.
