    ASUS ZenBook 14 Thin and Light Laptop - 14” Full HD WideView, 8th gen Core i7-8550U Processor, 16GB DDR3, 512GB SSD, Backlit KB, Fingerprint Reader, Grey, Windows 10 Home - UX430UA-DH74

    • The keyboard is extremely mushy and subpar
    • The keyboard is perfect - especially the arrow keys (the newer models cram the four arrow keys together in a very un-user-friendly way, but this model has a great keyboard.
    • Runs loud and hot at idle, build quality is so bad my 130% dell officemax laptop is sturdier than this, sharp scratchy edges, doesn't even sit flat on a flat surface like a wobbly uneven table, EVERYTHING flexes and bends where you don't want it to, heavy for how flimsy and hollow it feels, keyboard is a gross mushy mess like typing on a plastic bag over a wet blanket, cant put ANY other OS on it, windows 10 makes me wanna vomit my childhood dreams into the nearest trash bin, power button is where the delete button is.....wtf for real its like they took the worst keyboard from the cheapest chromebook they could find and duct taped it in there, computer is UGLY not because of the design choice but because of awkward warped areas in the cheap plastic body, when closed the top back of the screen flexes in ALOT and the circular shine effect looks cheap and uneven, not even very slim for how slow this pc is
    • Pretty sturdy keyboard too

    • Final thought, I would like to end on a positive note, because as I'm writing this comment, I am in my room, with no noise at all from the coil (even plugged with the battery), and the KEYBOARD is a pleasure to use, super responsive and love to hit the keys
