ASUS VivoBook X200CA- DB01T is an entry level laptop made for every day computing with a touchscreen at a very low price. If you are going to use the computer for Microsoft Word, Excel, preparing school homework, internet, watching videos, viewing pictures, listening to songs and similar stuff, this is a great laptop to buy with Asus quality.

It has an Intel ULVCeleron 1007U processor at 1.5 GHz speed with 2 GB DDR3 SDRAM and a 320 GB 5400 rpm hard drive as storage as well as a complimentary 3GB cloud based ASUS WebStorage for three years. You can restart the computer in 2 seconds from hibernation. Although 2 GB may not seem like a lot of memory, it will be more than sufficient for your daily computing needs. We could say the same thing for 320GB hard drive, but you have the extra cloud based storage offered complimentary from Asus.

11.6-Inch touch display at 1366 x 768 pixel resolution will give you a great Windows 8 experience. And the sound quality is definitely better than what one may expect from such a small budget computer, through built-in large speakers and precisely-tuned Asus SonicMaster Lite technology developed by Asus sound engineers. You can also choose between six different audio modes through Audio Wizard function in order to get the best out of your computer's sound system.

Asus X200CA offers a chiclet style keyboard that offers responsive keystrokes for a better typing experience and a large Smart Gesture Technology touchpad. Operating system is the 64 bit version of Windows 8 and you will be satisfied using it with Asus X200CA's intuitive touchscreen. Light and compact black Asus Vivobook weighs 2.6 pounds and is 1 inch thick, which means you can take it anywhere you want with also its 11 inch screen.

3-cell Lithium-Ion battery gives you up to 5 hours in average use. You also have the auto-data back-up when battery level falls below 5%. Connectivity options include 802.11bgn wireless, USB 2.0 Ports x 2, USB 3.0 Port x 1 for ultra-fast data transfer speeds up to 10 times more than USB 2.0, Bluetooth 4.0, SD/MMC Card Reader, Audio jack combo, RJ45 LAN, HDMI port and a VGA port.

Conclusion: ASUS Vivobook X200CA is designed for a better help at your daily tasks. It is light, compact, portable, functional, reliable with the trusted Asus brand. Its dual core Celeron processor with 2GB RAM works very well for your average daily computing stuff. It is definitely a good buy if you are not intending to spend at least hundreds more for a laptop. Go ahead and have a look on Amazon.
