This allows for smooth execution of applications and efficient management of multitasking, which is a major asset for demanding users.

In terms of connectivity, the Asus A55VM offers various options with Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and several ports, although the lack of USB 3.2 ports and Thunderbolt limits its adaptability to modern peripherals. Its weight of 2520 g may also be a drawback for those seeking a lightweight and easily portable computer. Finally, the 0.3 MP front camera does not meet current standards for video calls, especially in low-light environments, which may disappoint users who use it regularly. Overall, the Asus A55VM is a good choice for those looking for a powerful and stylish computer, but it is important to keep in mind its limitations in terms of memory and display quality.
