the AUDIO JACK is the best function in any gadget you will ever have.. you could connect to any speaker system specially the vintage ones
Bought one a week ago and I agree about keyboard and speakers. Speaker issue is not a big deal for me but the keyboard makes things harder when you type for more than 5 minutes

Bought one of these three weeks ago, and while watching you tube vids every night for several hours, I am having dropout problems with my blue tooth headphones. I know it is the laptop, as my other HP laptop that I use during the day, does not have any such problems. Apart from that, this is a fantastic computer.
I have a few questions 1:does it come with an activated windows? 2:can it run minecraft
Bought one w a 17.3" and 16gb ram about three weeks ago, got a great price under $500. I agree with the review. Keyboard does take getting used to although some video looks washed out. CPu performance w the i5 is great. The screen could be brighter though and the speakers are awful hollow sounding, the speakers on my 7 yr old HP Pavillion that this replaced are much better!

I'd wish for 8h batery life on my previous notebook Asus Vivobook (same as this one but with 11th gen i5) I got to 2-3 hours of just watching videos maybe this batery is expectionaly large but mine was 42 Wh or smth like that
There's the M1502 with a ryzen 7 4800H and 16gb of RAM upgradeable to 24gb maybe 40? Afaik which goes for under 500 dollars most of the time, it.might be worth reviewing, i will buy it soon and will tell my experiences with it, it definitively compromises everything for power though.

Hey! What is the wallpaper from the laptop and phone?
I bought a similar one (Model no F1502ZA-NB54) from Walmart Cyber Monday sale. The PC runs smoothly so far however I wished the screen was a little more bright. Moreover, there seems to be a yellowish tint (yellow/green colors more pronounced than red) on the screen and I am trying to figure out if that can be changed from the settings. The keyboard and the speakers doesn't seem to be too bad though though it would have been nice to have the backlit function.

It has probably the worst keyboard I've used. The keys are very uncomfortable compared to every other laptop I've used - they feel very hard to press and hurt your fingers after a while. I am making a lot of typing errors and it is slowing down my words per minute. The sound is also not great from the speakers. It's very low which makes you use headphones as it is difficult to watch videos or have team/zoom calls. The screen is not really bright - looks very dim. For the price, its just a budget laptop - invest in a better laptop

With great regret, I read your reviews after buying this laptop, namely X1502VA. If I have read your review earlier, I should have bought LG Gram 17" which is more advanced in terms of its configuration at roughly the same price. Totally agreed that the port come with Asus is a bit outdated as it does not come with USB 4.0 and thunderbolt like LG Gram. Also, LG Gram is using WQXGA which is much better and come with resolution of 2560x1600 and also its powerful battery life of 19.5 hours.
