Asus VivoBook E12 E203NA-FD026TS Review
The VivoBook E203 offers effortless mobility due to its compact and lightweight design. Weighing less than a kilogram, it’s thinner than most 11.6″ notebooks with a thickness of 1.7cm.
The full-size ergonomic keyboard with 1.6mm travel ensures the ultimate typing comfort. The glassy back comes with a texture feel. The viewing angles aren’t sharp, and the keyboard is bouncy without support at the center but includes a big and nice trackpad with spring-supported buttons at its bottom. Despite using fancy terms to describe its display, it is not sharp enough and the viewing angles are not very good.

Verdict
If you are hesitant to get Chromebook, this VivoBook is a great alternative. Not only does it come with Windows 10 but also Microsoft Office 365 pre-installed and 2 years of 500GB free web storage. It offers the latest USB 3.1 type-C capable of a transfer rate up to 1GB/s. You still have two standard USB-A ports so you can use old peripherals without any dongles or extra cables.
