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 CanadianDream :
How does this compare with the Costco HP laptop for 100 more ?

I passed on it because of the shipping added to it lol they won't give you free shipping so $15

The difference is the Costco one is touch but i find i never use touch very much for $115 more.

Plus a present for my Gr Kid and he does not need touch

I received my 17.3 inch Vivobook last week and can confirm:

There is 8 GB onboard (7.73 usable)
There is a single empty RAM slot.
There is a camera with privacy shade.
I was able to upgrade to 40GB with a single stick of DDR4 3200mhz RAM.

Single heat sink and copper pipe, 1 good sized fan. Runs pretty cool.
The SSD 512GB memory is an Intel 670p series .

Bottom case was easily removed and none of the components are tough to access.

Thoughts: pretty good deal and specs for the $400 and free delivery (in one day)
Screen is average, but perfectly adequate for regular use. Backlit keys feel great, are more subtly lit and not too bright at nighttime like some I have used.
Relatively light weight.
Track pad is large and has a good feel.
Even bone stock, the pc is pretty fast. Had about 30 Firefox tabs open with no crash.
The integrated graphics are fine for non gaming use.
Very happy this pc could accept the 5 fold increase in RAM, especially considering this configuration.

I also have internal pics if anyone wants them.

Does anyone know if there's a slot for a second solid state drive on the 15.6", or if the ram is soldered?
