Manual of product K401UQ
Editorial note
The Asus K401UQ stands out for its smooth performance thanks to its Intel® Core™ i5-6200U processor, which offers a Turbo frequency of up to 2.8 GHz. This laptop also features a 14-inch Full HD display, ensuring excellent display quality and a pleasant visual experience. Its modern design in metallic gray gives it a professional look, making it suitable for various environments. However, there are some drawbacks to consider. The RAM of only 4 GB may prove insufficient for users with high multitasking needs or those wishing to run heavy applications. Additionally, the lack of a dedicated graphics card limits graphical performance, which can be a hindrance for gamers or design professionals. The weight of 1.65 kg, while reasonable, may make prolonged use less convenient compared to other lighter models. The battery, although efficient, may not provide sufficient autonomy for those with intensive work needs away from a power source. Finally, the DOS operating system may require additional technical skills for users who prefer a ready-to-use Windows environment, which could affect usability. Overall, the Asus K401UQ offers good value for money with its combined storage capacity of 1024 Go (HDD + SSD), although it is important to weigh the pros and cons before making a choice.Score details
