    Can anyone see what the laptop is made of? I'm not sure if I'm blind but can't see the material on the site

    Zenbooks are metal chassis (Vivobooks are plastic chassis). You're not blind, it's not on their site.

    P goes up to 28W H goes up to 45W.
    The more power it can use the faster it's going to be.
    That's why an i5 H is faster than a i7 P.

    The problem with the extra power is it will consume more battery life. If you look at gaming laptops they come with huge power bricks. This is because a battery alone won't give enough power to run the dedicated graphics card.

    I got a laptop advertised on here in December with a 1260p i7. Laptop battery life was advertised about 8 hours. I got at best 6 and at worse 4.
    The 4 was using the CPU all the time such as gaming or recording video.

    Just be wary of battery life claims. I always look on notebookcheck for reviews as they are very detailed and give battery life per use. You will often see 12 hours cut down to 2 or less at full load. Which means full brightness and full CPU load. Yes that's a 10 hour difference for the same laptop just doing different tasks.

    Link below is for AMD version of this laptop. Note that runtimes range from 8 hours 42 minutes at best and 2 hours 04 minutes at full load, a drastic difference.

    16GB of LPDDR5 is fine though, you're unlikely to need to upgrade that. More of an issue on the 8GB systems.

    can anyone share something similar either in HP or Lenovo
    shonkydonkey's avatar
    Lenovo - second hand ThinkPad Yoga, 5th gen or 6th gen if you're lucky. Not with OLED though.

    Good price but don't expect good battery life

    Seems like a good deal to me! Don't think I've missed anything with it but let me know if you spot anything

    You ever seen a Ryzen 6000 one in the UK?

    Is the cooling on this any good? Not that I would be throwing extended all core workloads at it. (edited)

    My 6 year old ASUS Zenbook UX305f, it been abrilliant machine but now it running low on memory (128gb). As I'm not adventurousenough to take on the task of upgrading to say 512gb, I got a quote of £150from a small local computer repair store to supply the new H/W and copy all myprogrammes/data across. Is it worth upgrading or should I just put my £150 towardsa new machine like this?

    The PC is just for general home use, no gaming at least fornow.

    Honestly might be a better investment to buy new... All components have expiry dates and get more prone to failure with age, especially batteries.
    Changing an ssd isn't too hard but if you get a shop to do it, seems you'd be paying about £110-120 for labour. Depends on how much you value it but, this would still be noticeably faster and better screen etc even for everyday tasks.
