For those looking for a budget friendly laptop model while still getting a full sized display the Asus VivoBook 15 F505ZADB31 powered by the new AMD Ryzen processor will be something they want to check out. This laptop has a 15.6 inch display along with some other specifications that will be important to potential buyers. Below we are going to go over some of the key benefits and downsides to this new Asus model.
Specs
Processor: AMD Ryzen 3
Memory: 6 GB of RAM
Storage: 1 TB SATA
Screen: 15.6 Inches
OS: Windows 10
Benefits
– For those that love plenty of storage space the large and spacious 1 TB SATA should easily have your needs covered
– 15.6 inch laptop models are not typically thought of as ultra portable but at just 3.51 pounds this device competes with much smaller devices when it comes to weight
– The AMD Ryzen processor is new to the market but has already proven to be a reliable alternative to Intel while sticking to AMD’s budget friendly reputation
– Bluetooth, USB 3.0 and HDMI will all be found on this laptop model
Downsides
– With only an integrated graphics card included it will not play high end games smoothly especially those with intense graphics
– One of the ways they have been able to make this laptop so light is by removing the optical drive so if you still use physical media such as CD’s and DVD’s on a regular basis this will be a concern
– This model does not come with a backlit keyboard
Verdict
The Asus VivoBook 15 F505ZADB31 has some drawbacks but for most these are minor and expected when you consider the budget friendly price.
