Chassis, connectors, screen of the Asus Vivobook S17 R710EA-BX783W
With its relatively thin Transparent Silver design, it sports an elegant and discreet appearance.
This laptop is well equipped in terms of connectivity with its USB-C, audio port, Wi-Fi ac and Bluetooth 4.0 wireless modules for remote connections and communications, its convenient HDMI video output to easily connect to a TV or monitor for example or its 3 USB all compatible USB 2.0 and USB 3.0, USB 3.0 ensures transfers up to 10 times faster than USB 2.0 if you connect a USB 3.0 device.
With its 16/9th format suitable for playing videos and its definition of 1600×900 lower than Full HD logically compared to the price charged, the screen adopts classic characteristics. Thanks to its anti-reflective treatment, the screen is also more readable in a bright environment (e.g. outdoors) than a shiny slab and less tiring for the eyes over a long period of time.
Performance, autonomy of the Asus Vivobook S17 R710EA-BX783W
The Asus Vivobook S17 R710EA-BX783W is a large format laptop relatively intended for everyday use.
It delivers good performance in this area, as in surfing the Internet and office automation, because it is built around a low-power Intel Core i3-1005G1 Ice Lake processor and 8 GB of RAM.
If the Core i3-1005G1 Ice Lake reveals its limits under CPU-intensive applications such as models equipped with an AMD Ryzen 3 or a less powerful processor obviously, it still integrates within it the Intel UHD 620. Thanks to this graphics module that is not designed for gaming, however, you can watch photos and videos.
On the storage side, there is a silent SSD but also more robust, less energy-consuming and much faster.
As a result, the SSD clearly enhances responsiveness and fluidity on a daily basis compared to a simple hard drive, which implies, for example, much faster start/stop and application launches.
With its 512 GB, the SSD offers a capacity in line with the standard of hard drives. But of course in case you need more space, you can use an external storage unit such as a USB-C / USB 3.0 device to enjoy fast transfers.
As for the autonomy of this computer certainly thin but not the most easily transportable because of its weight and especially its large format, count on about 4 hours of operation on battery in light use. It should be noted, however, that a 17-inch is particularly comfortable for a mostly sedentary use (eg at home).
