The Asus ExpertBook lineup offers a range of business laptops designed for performance, durability, and security. It is Intel's or at least ASUS' answer to MacBook, esp in terms of great battery life. It also offers a great QHD+ 144Hz Display, great port selection and two SSD slots, which are rare to find in a business laptop especially at this price. The reviews of this can be read here: https://www.notebookcheck.net/Asu...455.0.html

Well, if they were to be accurate and called it DumbassBook, how many do you think would sell?

A lot of these Intel based laptops look really underpowered and overpriced. You can expect a big flip to AMD over the next year as Intel stumbles like a geriatric in a 110m hurdles race.

Is this the best laptop under $800? Need one to replace my i5 gen 7 laptop.

Just light stuff, may be some basic coding, video watching. never used apple devices otherwise mac does look a quality device.

Best if you can't get a MacBook m4 air or the software you use doesn't work on arm
