There are a number of odd things in the Target spec listing: 5 video out ports (not possible), Bluetooth 4.1 (they don't make WiFi cards with BT 4.1 anymore), LPDDR4x (hints at soldered RAM with no slots), USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type C and Type A (laptops in this price range is generally 3.2 Gen 1 a.k.a. 3.0)

Here is what ASUS says about the 17 inch model F1704 [asus.com]:


12th Gen Intel Core i5-1235U 10-Core
Intel® UHD Graphics (memory in single channel mode)
17.3-inch IPS FHD (1920 x 1080) 16:9, 60Hz, 250nits, 45% NTSC color gamut
8GB DDR4, 1 SODIMM slot (Unsure if 8GB is soldered + 1 free slot or 8GB occupies the slot, assume the latter until proven otherwise)
512GB M2 PCIe 3x4 NVMe SSD in a PCIe 4x4 slot
Backlit Keyboard with Num-key
1x USB-C 3.0, 2x USB-A 3.0, 1x USB-A 2.0
HDMI 1.4, 3.5mm jack, DC Charger port
720p camera with privacy shutter
Wi-Fi 802.11ac Dual band 1x1 + Bluetooth 5.1 Wireless Card
50WHrs 3-cell Li-ion
45W AC Adapter
2.10 kg (4.63 lbs)
says in store only. no shipping
FYI only. BT 4.1 on both. 1X1 Wi-fi for either one. Probably not too much to swap out wi-fi card, but no interest for me to look up the upgrade video on disassembly. Pretty good prices. Thanks and repped.

Quote from dealsquirrel :
This is a completely different laptop. Bigger display, lesser other specs.
17.3" vs 15.6
8GB vs 16GB Ram
UHD vs XE graphics

Why are you merging into a smaller laptop thread? Should be its own thread.

Hi dealsquirrel, thanks for sharing the deal. There are two laptops in this thread currently on the Frontpage. The 17.3" model (F1704ZA-SB52) was identical to the second one. But, please send a mod alert if we missed something. ty

There is NO video Camera on this Laptop? Can anyone confirm. Good specs though but thinking for Child's school work and now the camera is a must.

It does have a camera. If you look at the photos, at the top of the laptop screen, you can see the camera.

I can vouch for the build quality of the Vivobook, mine is an older model but has served me quite well over the last 2 years. I don't game, but for every purpose I've used it for it has been a trouble-free snappy laptop. That's with an older processor and 8g ram.

I bought one with some of my Discover reward points getting a gift card. Bought $400 for $340 as Staples is 15% off gift cards with discover points.


Helps to save $60 and bring the price down thanks.

The memory is LPDDR (low power DDR) which generally means they are not removable.
So, memory is unlikely to be upgraded.

On the other hand, more than 90% of laptop these days (except for some 2-in-1) have removable SSD.

The sales person talked me out of buying it. Pushed the in-store warranty so hard I did not want to buy from them.
