Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

The Asus F556UA-AS54 is an amazing product for the price. This feels like a midpoint between an ultrabook and laptop. You get an i5 cpu, 256GB SSD, 8GB ram, 1080p display (matte), full keyboard, dvd drive, all at $550. The alternative was the ultrabook by Asus for $750. Is it worth $200 more? So far everything loads fast, Everything loads fast thanks for the ssd and ram. The color is a light champagne gold, which actually looks quite nice. The laptop appears very nice and looks expensive with the brushed aluminum look, but everything is plastic, not metal or aluminum. The downside to all this is the lid can be pushed down, some plastic feel cheap. I don't think the display is an IPS display as the viewing angles do suffer at certain points. But for $550 you are getting a great deal and a decent quality laptop.
