However, many of us aren’t familiar with the ‘ASUS’ a computer company, but here’s something which I am going to reveal upon all of you about this manufacturer. The company got a secret weapon named ASUS VivoBook X202E-DH31T that could give a tough time to Apple’s MacBook Air for its low price tag.
Here’s a complete review of both devices based on their features and specs. Let’s find who’ll win at the end.
When we talk about the efficiency or power, the Apple’s toy takes the floor as it packs an Intel Core i5 processor, which is far better than that of ASUS Intel Core i3. Though processor is an older model, studies indicate the Asus VivoBook is clocked at the 1.8GHz as compared to the 1.3GHz of the MacBook Air.
The ASUS VivoBook holds a huge 500GB Hard Disk storage while the MacBook Air packs a 128GB SSD storage.
The ASUS notebook will cost you approximately $599, I think that’s its secret weapon which pulls the Apple MacBook Air that holds a price tag of $999, almost double of the ASUS laptop.
Now, it’s a MacBook Air turn who blows ASUS VivoBook hardly in terms of portability. The Apple’s notebook weighs only 2.38 pounds. It is far thinner and lighter than that of ASUS. Perhaps, the portability is a main factor that lifts the Apple name among the users.
Both devices come with the 4GB of DDR3 RAM, but Apple MacBook Air has 8GB RAM with customizable option.
Here are online reviews for both devices.
The LAPTOP Magazine awards ASUS VivoBook with 2.5 out of 5 points because of its attractive look and low price tag that sports touchscreen and Windows 8 operating system. But it lacks the interest when we talk about its portability.
The CNET gives MacBook Air 4 out of 5 points because of its longer battery life, portability and reasonable price over the high tech machine. The long battery cycle might be the alone factor which gives it a lift over ASUS.
