Yeah. Looks really good for everything except that color gamut... I've not seen that in person. 🤷 ♂️ Should be alright for normal PC stuff, right?

Why can't there be a perfect everything laptop for cheap? 😭😭😭

When most devices still use USB 2 or 3, people complain about USB 4. SMH

It is perfectly fine for normal usage and the quality is same as you see in far costlier Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 5 series laptops (not PRO). For the price, this is really a powerhouse and will fly ay normal work you throw at it and more powerful than any laptops you normally see in $500-$600 range with U and P series Processors.
I have one purchased from my parents in India where it came with 16GB of Ram and the build quality is also far superior. It is made of plastic but a very high quality one, similar what you see in their TUF series Laptops and it has official MIL-STD-810 certification. Also, the typing experience is very good with properly sized and well spaced keys and very good key travels. In my opinion, these VivoBooks do offer one of the best keyboard experience in sub 1K laptops and I have used plenty high end laptops to compare with.

Any 3200 MHz CL22 laptop memory will suffice and they are below $20. Below is one example:-
