Just an update for anyone else searching this same question: Amazon refunded me no questions asked. Happy days.

Depends on what version you’re going for.

The version I bought was the Core i7/8GB/512GB SSD.

Things I personally didn’t like about the Vivobook

Display was dim

Battery life is awful (3 hours with just browsing and left idle)

Asus prioritizes multimedia keys instead of FN keys with no way of disabling them

And don’t me started on the BS Splended software that forces their custom icc colour profile to add a yellow tint to the display (manged to fix this but it took a lot of messing around)
