Expert tester comments
The ASUS Vivobook Flip 14 offers laptop and tablet functionality via hinges that allow the screen to tilt all the way around. It doesn't feel bulky, and it's not hard to change from one form factor to the other. On the inside, there is plenty of processing speed, and decent Wi-Fi. Our main quibble is that quite a lot of space on the solid state drive is taken up by the system and pre-installed software. Note: This laptop's performance is not directly comparable to current products due to it being tested with an older version of our benchmark.
