Thanks a lot for this. My 85 year-old mother has just bought one of these. It gives a great heads-up for what I'm doing, once she's installed TeamViewer, of what I'll be doing tomorrow! It's great to know it's initially set for for Home S - which I've never considered before...
thanks for the unboxing and disassembly. I purchased a aspire 5 with ryzen 5500u laptop based on your review and it works perfectly. I purchased this laptop for 350 taxes in and shipped. Should be a good all around laptop for everyday use.Thanks again and keep up the great work!!
I think people have been too pampered by hardware manufacturers in recent years. An 11th gen i3 is good for practically everything 90% of people buy a laptop for, apart from hardcore gaming or professional creative work.
also I have a ryzen 3 which is comparable to i3 and i can do light gaming on it, and it doesnt hang at all. i had an i5 before this but this is fine. id say dont go below i3/ryzen 3 mostly as it might not run windows the best but anything from them and up is fine
A stubborn POV. An I3 10th or 11th gen used for general lightweight productivity will be reliably good for another 3-4 years at the minimum. It's a great way of getting flagship performance in a budget laptop the fraction of the price. An i5 or even an i7 would be detrimental to both ASUS and the users this is marketed towards. For the consumers this is meant for; who just browse, do word processing, watch videos but just need it to be reliably fast, an i5 or i7 will be a waste of power they won't use that is more energy-consuming on the laptop. Battery life will go down with this but with an i5 or i7. The price will go up and it'll sit at the awkward gap where it isn't a budget laptop and it isn't a flagship; not even an effective transition between the 2, and it wouldn't be a very popular choice. BTW you can add dual channel ram iirc on this
I just purchased the DA version of the laptop here in Canada for a great price! Looking forward to getting it and trying it out! The difference with the EA and DA versions is the EA is an i3 and the DA has a AMD Ryson 3! Also my model has 8gb ddr4 512gb ssd and a built in fingerprint scanner! It was on sale for roughly $440 CAN!
Thanks for the review. I bought this laptop last week and i am disappointed to know that it has only one slot available for upgrade and the other one 4gb is soldered on the motherboard. I am curious to know if adding another 16gb on single slot i.e 4+16 = 20gb will i get performance boost same as dual chanel of 8+8 GB i.e 16 or i am better of using current configaration of 4+4. Basically i want to use it for editing work. Thanks
From what I read your stick must be same speed and memory amount as the onboard ram. 4gb onboard add 4gb stick = 8gb dual channel. 4gb onboard add 8gb stick = 12gb single channel.
Hi! Thank you so much for your video! I had the same "surprise" opening my laptop in order to upgrade the RAM 😅 Can I ask you why you recommand max 16Gb? Do you think it could be a problem to upgrade to 32? Thank you !
It depends on your usage. I regularly use mine for a good 8-9 hours a day without charging, on low battery mode and minimal apps open. I only use some edge tabs, and a word processor(MS Word) with spotify in the background. Runs nice and silent. Not the thinnest laptop, but it's still extremely portable. I actually prefer the hard plastic build. It still feels premium for the price and doesn't get insanely cold/warm to the touch like a metal build would be. A huge downside is that there is no backlit keyboard, making this a bit annoying to use in dim areas but not impossible with a high enough brightness to reflect off the keys and good keyboard familiarity
@@JuanVasquez-ph8be 1920x1080, it's not mindblowing, but it looks like any modern regular desktop monitor. Brightness is good, no saturation/contrast issues. It's a solid FHD display that's pretty surprising at this price point. Also helps that it's a matte display so an incredibly less amount of glare. It's an overall decent display that's great for doing work, playing games, and watching videos
looks like the base specs for this model are different depending on where you are in the world. just grabbed one of these off Amazon and I went with a basic upgrade of 12GB/512GB with an Intel I5 for daily use and an IrisX chipset for graphics. touchscreen function backlit keys and a memory card slot is included. I love it and it would do for 95% of the computing population out there 🙂
figured as much which is why I used Amazon. this was listed with a few upgrade options from 8GB/256GB all the way up to 24GB/1TB which gives the buyer some choices. you can fine tune your laptop exactly the way you want it 🙂

Can I add another 8 GB to make it dual channel or add 4 GB? I’ll try to keep it short and simple for you as the other aswers I’ve read are a little confusing or unnecessarily complex: Yes you can add a 8Gb module, but make sure it’s the same 2400Mhz speed to avoid incompatibilities, you’ll end up with 12GB RAM but it will not be in dual channel. If you really want dual channel you’ll need to place in another 4GB stick at the same 2400Mhz speed, this will allow for a dual channel configuration. It’s proabbly better to have 12GB of single channel RAM then to have 8GB of dual channel, unless you really need the extra speed. (If you needed the extra speed you’d proably know that, so if you’re not sure, then you don’t need it)
just bought a f515ea-ws31 for my nephew for christmas from walmart and it was only $229 usd. i added a 8gb stick of 2400mhz ram i had sitting around for a total of 12gb.
On my old Lenovo G50-30 (2013) you just have to remove 3 screws so you can remove the back plastic and acces the RAM and HDD/SSD. Battery can also be easily removed without removing the back plastic. I don't know why they don't make them like that (user-friendly) anymore.

Some models don't have the backlit keyboard. If it's not lit then it doesn't have it. If you wanted to add it then you'd need to purchase a replacement keyboard that has the backlight and then connect the extra ribbon cable to the port on the mainboard.

@@khadija7728 Hello Khadija 😊❗ The 'main' issue was the 'resolution' of the screen. I had originally purchased an HP laptop with a "i3 CORE" and the resolution was REALLY bad. Ergo, I went back to 'Best Buy' and explained my issue. They then explained that it was most likely because I had an "i3 CORE", and that an "i4 CORE" would be better to suit my needs. FYI, I 'livestream' to watch TV & Netflix, but I 'broadcast' to my TV (hard connection, w/HDMI cable). So I exchanged it for the ASUS laptop with the "i4 CORE". Holy 🐄❗ It was even WORSE‼ Considering the fact that I 'livestream', and my 14" - 15" screen looks TERRIBLE, can you imagine how it would look on a 40" HD TV❓ It's 💩... MAGNIFIED🤭! What I meant by 'resolution', is that the picture was so VERY 'grainy', that when it came to 'close-ups' of faces... (yikes!) it was as if the computer couldn't match the skin tone and would 'flicker' (as if it was confused) between skin 'tones', which would result in a SHINY 'patch' of PART of one's face... and 'so' GRAINY, that I can clearly see the square PIXELS that surround the shinny/glossy 'patch' of part of a face. Perhaps a 'different' model of an ASUS Laptop might work out just fine 😊 (🤞🏼). OH noooooo 😯❗ I didn't realize how LONG my message was. PLEASE accept my profuse apologies, my bad 😔. Most IMPORTANTLY... I sincerely hope🙏🏼, that my (long winded🤭) reply was of 'some' help to you 🤗. Sincerely, Elizabeth Charles 🛐4☮&💜mankind ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Just to be C L E A R to 'all' readers... In absolutely "NO' way, am I "bashing" ASUS. The above 'comment' was exactly just that... a comment. An OPINION, is EVERYONE'S right to have.

Don't bother. Return it if you still can, and buy something else. Mine has an i5 core, and it's GARBAGE!
I can't wait to return it. I feel sorry for your loss😔, and I'm🙏that it's NOT too late for you to return it.
Wishing you all the best. Yikes....I just noticed the date of your comment. Oh my, too late now☹😢🥺.
Can i upgrade this laptop graphics card?
Afraid not. The GPU comes as part of the mainboard.
Upto How much gb ssd we can upgrade
is the wifi card upgradable?
Hello friend! I have an asus f415ja-bv393t, intel 3i, 256 gigs total, also my PC has only one 8Giga Ram slot?Which one do you recommend me to buy for compatibility and reliability? I would like to increase it to 16 giga. What if I want to change processor and hard drive? A hug!
is this the same for x515DA?
The RAM is 3200mhz
Want to get a pin. To sign in
Can this laptop limit the charging level of the battery to, say, 50%?
Yes but it works for 60% 80% and of course a 100% limit
Pls can u tell how to turn on the backlight in this laptop .I've the same laptop but it doesn't have any backlight option on f7
How to enabled backlit keyboard on asus x515ea?
Some models don't have the backlit keyboard. If it's not lit then it doesn't have it. If you wanted to add it then you'd need to purchase a replacement keyboard that has the backlight and then connect the extra ribbon cable to the port on the mainboard.
Se puede ajustar la resolucion a 1920x1080?
Si! es FullHD
How long does the battery last of this laptop?
Someone said 4 hrs!!!
Good video, poor value laptop, I can usually get an 8GB 256GB i5 or R5 one for £400-450 , Box has the i5 version with 512GB for £420 atm. Would rarely buy from Currys!
I got the one he's talking about for 290 new. Insane value imo. Added another 8gb stick and the performance is sooo good.
Does it have a backlit feature?
no
Is it possible to upgrade the CPU?
No you can't it's a laptop, just by a computer if you want upgradability
@Gynt you can upgrade processors in laptops as well as ram. The response to get a desktop is daft. He wants a laptop probably because it's portable. Laptops can be upgraded ffs!
Mine stopped working and after 9 days and never turned on again.
Piece of garbage
doesnt it have i5 not i3?
Nope, this one has an i3 processor. There are i5 versions available though.
I just bought the one with the i5 core... Can't wait to return it!

I just purchased an ASUS X515. Not sure if I actually got a "new" one, or one that was returned (no surprise), and reboxed.
This "thing" is the absolutely, by far, the WORST laptop I've ever seen/used!!! G A R B A G E‼‼‼‼‼‼‼‼‼
How, why?
is it because of the screen? if so, i can help you
@@fanofmma100
Yes, that was the main reason. How incredibly kind of you to offer me some help😁‼ However after a week (had 30 days), I returned/exchanged it for a different one.
Thank you (from your🇨🇦friend)!
Please be safe😷, be well, and... stay that way 🤗‼
@Elizabeth Charles, how is it now? Is it still working well for you after all this time, cause I wanna buy an Asus X515e i5 I'm confused

Hello Khadija 😊❗
The 'main' issue was the 'resolution' of the screen. I had originally purchased an HP laptop with a "i3 CORE" and the resolution was REALLY bad. Ergo, I went back to 'Best Buy' and explained my issue. They then explained that it was most likely because I had an "i3 CORE", and that an "i4 CORE" would be better to suit my needs. FYI, I 'livestream' to watch TV & Netflix, but I 'broadcast' to my TV (hard connection, w/HDMI cable). So I exchanged it for the ASUS laptop with the "i4 CORE".
Holy 🐄❗ It was even WORSE‼ Considering the fact that I 'livestream', and my 14" - 15" screen looks TERRIBLE, can you imagine how it would look on a 40" HD TV❓
It's 💩... MAGNIFIED🤭!
What I meant by 'resolution', is that the picture was so VERY 'grainy', that when it came to 'close-ups' of faces... (yikes!) it was as if the computer couldn't match the skin tone and would 'flicker' (as if it was confused) between skin 'tones', which would result in a SHINY 'patch' of PART of one's face... and 'so' GRAINY, that I can clearly see the square PIXELS that surround the shinny/glossy 'patch' of part of a face.
Perhaps a 'different' model of an ASUS Laptop might work out just fine 😊 (🤞🏼).
OH noooooo 😯❗
I didn't realize how LONG my message was. PLEASE accept my profuse apologies, my bad 😔.
Most IMPORTANTLY...
I sincerely hope🙏🏼, that my (long winded🤭) reply was of 'some' help to you 🤗.
Sincerely,
Elizabeth Charles
