From the manufacturer

Asus F712FA-DB51 VivoBook 17 Thin and Light 17.3" HD+, Intel Core i5-8265U

Whether at work or play, the incredibly compact ASUS VivoBook 17 immerses you in whatever you set out to do. Its new thin-bezel display provides an amazing 85% screen-to-body ratio for visuals that draw you in, while the ErgoLift hinge tilts the keyboard to give you a comfortable typing position. VivoBook 17 is powered by up to the latest Intel Core i7 processor, and features dual storage drives to help you get things done with the least amount of fuss.

Unbounded immersion

VivoBook 17 pushes the limits of what’s possible, inspiring you to break new bounds. The new thin-bezel design gives it a vast screen area for an extremely immersive viewing experience for work and play. Despite thin bezels framing the display, there’s still room for a HD camera so you can have video chats with family and friends a world away.

Connecting the possibilities

VivoBook 17 is equipped with the reversible USB Type-C (USB-C) port, featuring an any-way-up design that makes connecting devices as easy as possible. It also delivers data transfer speeds that are up to 10x faster5 than older USB 2.0 connections! In addition, there are USB 3.1 Gen 1 and USB 2.0 ports, HDMI output, and a microSD card reader — so you can easily connect all your current peripherals, displays and projectors with zero hassle.

Keeping you productive, all day long

VivoBook 17 keeps you going for longer thanks to a high-quality lithium-polymer battery for all-day computing. Integrated ASUS Battery Health Charging technology helps protect your battery from overcharging, prolonging its lifespan and reducing the chances of damage from swelling to keep it in tip-top condition.

Set an inspirational tone

ASUS SonicMaster is a combination of hardware, software and audio tuning designed with the goal of giving you the very best audio experience. A professional-grade codec ensures precise audio encoding and decoding; while amplifiers, large speakers and resonance chambers perfectly suited to VivoBook 17 ensure a powerful audio delivery and deeper bass. Additional signal processing and tuning help refine minute details, filter noise and improve audio clarity so you get truly immersive sound.

Features:

  • The screen-to-body ratio is calculated based on the visible body area of the display when the laptop is opened to 90° and the active display area.
  • Wide-view panel optional.
  • Integrated fingerprint sensor optional.
  • Backlit keyboard optional.
  • Unless otherwise stated, USB-C data transfer figures are based on theoretical performance. Actual performance may vary in real-world situations.

    good product for value/application. does not come with a cd-rom drive which is the downside to this laptop. the camera is a 720p, not a 1080p another downside. overall the speed & functionality is pretty fast. definitely a product worth buying.

    This model has a nice lightweight, sleek look. The keyboard is comfortable. However, there is a problem with the sound that I have not been able to troubleshoot.

    FOR THE MOST PART I LIKE THIS LAPTOP. IT IS LIGHTWEIGHT COMPARED TO MY FORMER LAPTOP AND FAIRLY RESPONSIVE TO TOUCH. mY BIGGEST PROBLEM WITH IT IS THE KEYBOARD, WHICH IS SO LIGHT IN COLOUR, SILVER LETTERS ON SILVER KEYS. THAT IT IS REALLY HARD TO READ. EVEN WITH THE UNDER KEY LIGHTING, I FIND IT VERY DIFFICULT TO TYPE UNLESS i AM HOLDING IT AT A WEIRD POSITION (about a 30 degree angle). I GUESS THIS A PROBLEM WITH BUYING THINGS ON-LINE, YOU DON'T REALIZE POTENTIAL PROBLEMS UNTIL YOU ACTUALLY SEE THE ITEM. i THOUGHT MAYBE IT WAS BECAUSE I AM OLDER AND AND MY EYES ARE NOT AS GOOD AS THEY ONCE WERE BUT MY SON HAD DIFFICULTY WITH IT AS WELL.

    It seems nice, from a distance, but the overall cheapness of this laptop comes back to bite you. This screen must be the worst on the market. Asus seems to have zero standards when it comes to what screens to build into their laptop. Low resolution, low contrast, changes colour when you even move your head just one degree, never sharp, reading from it is a pain. The plastic feel of the housing is somewhat acceptable, the performance for common applications is fine, all in all it is what you would expect for the price, but this shamefully bad, 20-year-old screen technology should have been ditched long ago.

    Utilise depuis 13 mois et une penture près du fils de connection a complètement cassé. Je ne peu plus le fermer car quand je l'ouvre il a de la difficulté à redemarer.

    Got this too replace my seven-year-old Asus, which was the longest-lived laptop I've ever owned. I had high expectations, and so far this has been great. Fast enough for me, with great storage and a nice display. Backlit keys are somewhat of a problem because the actual symbols in the keys are hard to read. And the documentation for this laptop was mostly nonexistent. All in all a though, I'm happy with the purchase.

    I am still trying to figure out why other customers are complaining about the SSD. I was going to purchase the MX300 M.2 that was suggested, only to find out it was discontinued. When I went to the Crucial website I typed in the computer information and they said the MX500 would work. I purchased one and when I got the computer and SSD on the same day I found out it did not fit. I have had absolutely NO problems with the SSD that is already installed. I turned the computer on to try it out and it ran fine. Then when I found out the SSD wasn't going to work I hooked it up to the internet. It does amazingly well as far as I can see. I haven't had any problems with the computer. It's an upgrade from the last computer I purchased which was a POS, HP. My previous was an ASUS which is why I went back with ASUS. My old one still works it just has a line on the left side of the screen that is distracting. I highly recommend this computer to anyone who even thinks about purchasing it. No touch screen is the only drawback. It has a backlit keyboard and a fingerprint sensor which works wonderfully. I'm not a heavy gamer but I do play a lot of games on my computer. As I said so far so good!!

    I'd give this laptop 5 stars, for features and value, if it had keyboard backlighting, like described in the ad. I don't know why Amazon won't correct the ad! The laptop is fast, thin and feature-loaded, but this line in the ad is completely false:

    Ergonomic backlit chiclet keyboard with fingerprint sensor activated via Windows Hello

    There is no backlighting or fingerprint sensor. Come on, Amazon, fix the ad!!!
    The keyboard was designed to be backlit, (with translucent lettering on silver keys, but ASUS must have omitted the backlight LED to save a buck. Oh well. Ordered stickers to stick on the keys to make the letters visible.

    Very difficult to read this keyboard. I won't buy this.
    I am still within 30 days of the purchase. Would I get a full return for this return due to a misleading advertisement about a keyboard backlight that does not exist?
