Bought this laptop about a month ago. I was willing to buy a laptop with Ci7 processor and some decent graphics at of course low price. I did some research and came across this laptop. I tried to find reviews about this product but was unsuccessful because there were no reviews. I found one video in which they said it has a serious heating problem. I tried asking my friends their opinion, but most of them were against Asus. They said it has bad service and all. But i knew Asus is great brand...

No other manufacturer provides an a perfect combo like this in this price range. When everyone else cuts back either on ram or storage, Asus has not only provided a model with a good configuration and a good price, but also avoided pushing Windows down your throat.
Pros:
1.Gives good performance for an average gamer.
2.Doesn't overheat even in high performance mode.
3.Body looks sleeker and simpler than HP and Dell models.
4.All ports are on either sides and not behind. You won't have close ...

Pretty neat. has a good cover, as decent a laptop as can get.

Just coz its i7 doesnt mean you're gonna get any super fast speedup from this processor. it is still a two core processor and you'll probably be better off with a lower gen quad core processor if you care about performance.

Also was a bit taken aback when i realised.. THERE's ONLY ONE AUDIO JACK?? how the hell does one do VOIP'ing?

this is a great laptop at this price
pros
-no heating
-value for money
-good display
-gaming laptop
cons
-looks

Used this Laptop for 11 years, satisfied. In the last few years it has got slowed down.

I bought from a shop in Kolkata, the almost same product but the graphics card is Nvidia Geforce GT 820M, rest of the laptop is same. This is a true value for money. I installed Windows 8.1 x64 and it is running smoothly. Bootup is amazingly fast and sound quality is excellent. Only problems I found
1. No blue-ray drive
2. headphone/speaker combo jack (this is a characteristics of Asus)
Otherwise excellent product
Note: Asus dealer in my city (Kolkata) showed me a notice issued from Asus head...

I wanted to give it a ZERO star rating, but the minimum input for user rating is set to 1.

I got this laptop and was excited to install ubuntu on it and later discovered that touchpad is NOT working. Later I connected a USB mouse that works fine on other laptops and that too did not work properly as it use to work on other laptops.

I guess users might have to risk their purchase with DOS based systems available on flipkart !

This was my first experience buying laptop or expensive gadget ...
