Asus VivoBook E510MA

Asus has been marking a big mark in the laptop market. Not just in Nepal, it’s getting immense popularity in the world.

One of the reasons for that is its generous warranty for two years, which most other laptop brands fail to provide. Another reason for that is its all-encompassing nature.

The US-based PC giant caters to gamers with performance-heavy devices like ROG (Republic of Gamers) and TUF gaming laptops. Similarly, there are ROG Zephyrus and ZenBook ultrabooks for the content creators.

And for those looking for affordable and value-packed notebooks, Asus has VivoBook series of laptops in its arsenal. The Asus VivoBook E510MA is one of such value-packed budget-centric notebooks that made a decent position on our list of best budget laptops under Rs. 50,000 in Nepal.

The laptop comes aboard with an Intel Celeron N4020 processor paired with 4GB of DDR4 RAM. You also get a swift 256GB PCIe Gen3 x2 SSD storage, which promises faster read/write speed. This CPU-RAM-SSD combo delivers a decent performance while performing most of your daily computing tasks.

You can browse the internet, run Microsoft Office software, or attend online meetings via Zoom, Google Meet, or Microsoft teams with an issue. But sometimes, you may feel hiccups while multitasking between a couple of apps at once.

If you frequently multitask between several apps at once, you may consider tossing in some extra GBs of RAM. The laptop supports RAM expansion up to 8GB. You can even install an HDD to amp up the storage volume. So there is nothing to worry about when it comes to the upgrades.

Even when it comes to the display, the laptop looks quite impressive. There is a sizable 15.6-inch display to cherish about. The screen is surrounded by narrow bezels to give you a more immersive feel.

Acer TravelMate Spin B3

Asus VivoBook E510MA and E410MA are cool notebooks. But none all of us need a notebook. Some of us need a 2-in-1 convertible, which we can turn into a laptop and a tablet according to our needs and moods.
