The touchpad, even though responsive and reliable, is a bit small in my opinion. Sure, this is not the best keyboard I’ve used but it’s pretty good for a laptop. The Enter key is outlined in yellow, which is a nice design touch. It has a good amount of feedback and the keyboard is also backlit with white LEDs. I was pleasantly surprised to use the keyboard.

Colours aren’t overly saturated and viewing angles are great too. Personally, I prefer this type of screen on a laptop. The screen is reasonable and gets bright enough for indoor viewing. The 14-inch touchscreen uses a full HD resolution, and the bezels are pretty slim especially on the right and left sides. Asus VivoBook Flip 14 review: What’s good? On the left side is a USB 2.0 port and Kensington lock. On the right side is a Thunderbolt 4 USB-C port that doubles as a charging port, a USB-A 3.2, a headphone jack, a microSD card reader, and an HDMI port. Despite its small footprint, Asus was able to squeeze a number of ports into the housing. (Image credit: Anuj Bhatia/Indian Express)īecause the VivoBook Flip 14 is portable and easily slips into a backpack, this 14-inch notebook is ideal for students and travellers. Although I found the tablet mode a bit silly, I did like using the tablet tent mode for watching movies.

Obviously, the convertible design does have some advantages over the traditional looking notebooks. The hinges are secure, and the laptop easily folds. Two hinges let you fold the display into laptop, tablet, or tent mode. It’s also seriously light and comfortable, measuring 12.75 x 8.66 x 0.73 inches and weighing just 1.5 kg.

While the chassis is made of metal, the classic style of the notebook made me an instant fan. Visually, the VivoBook Flip 14 looks fantastic. Intel confident Apple doesn’t have the ammunition to score in enterprise market yet Asus VivoBook Flip 14 review: What’s new?
