Editorial note

The Asus Pro P Essential P45VA stands out with its modern and sleek black design, providing a pleasant user experience in various environments. Its performance is ensured by an Intel® Core™ i3 3rd generation processor, which allows for smooth execution of common applications. However, it is important to note that this machine may show limitations for more demanding tasks, which could disappoint users looking for superior performance. In terms of storage, this model offers a capacity of 500 GB, ideal for users with varied needs. Its connectivity is also appreciated, with USB ports, HDMI, and an Ethernet port, facilitating connections with different devices. However, the absence of USB 3.2 Gen 1 ports may restrict data transfer speeds, and the internal memory of only 4 GB may prove insufficient for those who multitask or use heavy applications. The nickel-metal hydride (NiMH) hybrid battery technology ensures good durability, but the maximum battery life is not specified, leaving some ambiguity regarding its prolonged use. Additionally, the weight of 2300 g may make the laptop less convenient to carry, especially for mobile use. In summary, the Asus Pro P Essential P45VA offers interesting features at a competitive price, but its limitations in memory and performance may not justify this investment for more demanding users.
