Editorial note

The Asus X550JX stands out for its optimal performance, thanks to its Intel® Core™ i7 4th generation processor and 8 GB of DDR3 memory. This allows for smooth usage, even for multitasking and demanding applications. Its 15.6-inch Full HD display offers excellent picture quality, although the lack of a touchscreen may disappoint some users. In terms of storage, the generous capacity of 1000 GB with an HDD allows for keeping a large amount of files without worrying about space. The versatile connectivity, including Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, as well as several USB ports, is also a valuable asset. However, the weight of 2450 g may make the Asus X550JX less portable for daily use, especially during frequent travels. Additionally, the absence of a USB 3.2 Gen 1 port limits data transfer speeds compared to newer models, which can be a drawback for demanding users. The 44 Wh battery, while adequate for moderate use, may require frequent recharges during intensive tasks. In summary, the Asus X550JX offers good value for money with solid performance and generous storage capacity, although some limitations in connectivity and portability may influence users' choices.
