Performance, autonomy of the Asus VivoBook Go 15 R1500FA-NJ244W
The Asus VivoBook Go 15 R1500FA-NJ244W is an elegant, thin and light 15-inch laptop designed for everyday use on the go.
As easy to carry as an Ultrabook because it is thin and light, it will be of even more interest to nomads like some looking for a student laptop that its autonomy is around 10 hours on battery in light use, as shown our test dedicated to a similar model.
As it relies on a good amount of 16 GB RAM as well as a low consumption AMD Ryzen 5 7200U Quad Core processor Mendocino which houses the Radeon 610M graphics part, we obtain good performance in everyday use, such as surfing the Internet and office or even watching photos and videos.
Especially since this duo is well supported in their daily tasks by the SSD storage which clearly reinforces responsiveness and fluidity thanks to its great fluidity.
An SSD is also silent, shock resistant and energy efficient.
So thanks to the SSD, starts/stops are quick, for example, as are software launches.
Logically given the positioning of this laptop, Asus opts for a classic capacity that is also found in many (much) more expensive models: 512 GB.
However, if you need more space, you can connect an external storage module. We will preferably opt for a USB 3.0/USB-C device to benefit from fast transfers.
