FYI - Here's a paraphrase of my 4/16/2025, Asus Vivobook S 15 review on Best Buy:
I kept getting the Blue Screen of Death / crash about 5+ times per day.
- The Geek Squad "FIXED it" THREE times, but shortly after I got it home, same thing, BSOD!
- Sent it into the Asus service center, and when I got it back 15 days later, got BSOD twice within 4 minutes. They said the WARRANTY does NOT include any replacements or refunds.
I will never buy another Asus product. And will avoid buying from Best Buy also.
.
PS - Asus has a D- rating at the Better Business Bureau - Failure to respond to 83 complaint(s) filed against business

suck because they used to be one of my go-to brands. Nexus 7 still going strong XD

Agreed.
The problem now is, does anyone really want to buy from a company who will treat you so badly, that you basically have NO warranty...?

But according to BB customer service on 4/16:
- My Best Buy+ Membership: $50, extended 60 day EXCHANGE ONLY. NO Refunds.
- My Best Buy Total Membership: $180, extended 60 day EXCHANGE ONLY. NO Refunds.
And do I get to decide that I've had it, and want an exchange? Or do THEY decide when I "qualify" for one?
And will they just give me a used, open-box, refurbished, or recertified POS? Or a new product, like the one I paid $1300 for?

Unfortunately, I had trouble with my CC at BB for this purchase, so I used PayPal instead :-(
"PayPal does not offer a specific "extended warranty" program. Instead, PayPal offers a Buyer Protection program. This program provides reimbursement for eligible online purchases if they don't arrive, or if they are significantly different from the seller's description. It also covers situations where you were charged for something you didn't purchase. To be eligible for Buyer Protection, you must use a valid PayPal account, file a dispute within 180 days of the purchase, and the item must be a physical, tangible good"

Maybe their quality control has gotten worse since...?
And maybe they have a new policy of maximizing profits by denying warranty replacement claims.
83 complaints at BBB suggests that it isn't just me.
