with third Generation Intel Core i3- 3217U (1.8G, 3M) Intel Chief River processor. It has elegant esthetics and robust built quality for everyday life and has metallic chassis with aluminum hair-brush textures to enhance great look. The keyboard is easy to get used to and it offers a pleasant typing experience, with the keys having a light click sound and a decent amount of travel. The laptop’s relatively large click pad is also quite smooth.

On the VivoBook, the Windows Start Screen is the native interface, and seems capable and usable. Storage is a 320 GB magnetic hard drive running at 5400 RPM. This is certainly enough space to store any files and documents you will need to carry with you.

There is no optical drive in the VivoBook, but ASUS has been kind enough to include a decent range of connections, such as HDMI out, VGA out, 3.5 mm headset, and even a 10/100 Ethernet networking port, although you don’t have to rely on this, as the F202E also includes 802.11 b/g/n Wi-Fi connectivity. Speaking of ports, the machine encompasses USB 3.0 which is 10 times faster than USB 2.0.

Overall, the ASUS VivoBook looks to provide decent touch-connectivity for Windows 8 without the high price that other computers will offer.
