I'm in year 11 next year. I would like this laptop to perform well with multiple browser tabs open and multiple windows open. I would also like it to perform well in music production (fl studio), light photoshop and lightroom editing and light video editing. Would this be the right laptop for me, or should I look for another? I also took at look at the HP ENVY - 13-aq1052tu, however I noticed that the base clock speed was 1.6ghz, which I thought would be too slow, I also wouldn't be interested in overclocking (unless it was necessary). I would personally go for the VivoBook, but what's your opinion?

[@MrMuBot]

The Ryzen 4500U is marginally better than the Intel 10210U. And will be better for your workload. If you want to do extreme multi-tasking then you would definitely need to add more RAM. So let's say the 4gb on board + 16 gb on the free slot will get you 20GB. A ryzen 4600U laptop will be even better for the kind of workload you mentioned. So see if you can stretch your budget a bit and get something in that performance range.

[@robotomo4249]

3:39 - I don't believe that's correct. You can have a maximum of 20GB on this motherboard with a 4+16 hybrid configuration, something intel calls a flex mode but AMD just doesn't have a name for it.

[@MrMuBot]

I saw that the laptop said at max it can support 12GB of memory. So maybe it's 4+12 or 4+8, considering it can mean 2 things. Couldn't find concrete information on this.

[@JitinSharmaplus]

Just cmd ‘wmic memphysical get MaxCapacity, MemoryDevices’. The board’s capacity is 32GB (16+16), but as 4GB is already soldered, the max you can get is 4+16.

[@MrMuBot]

Oh, if you're looking to do serious game development which might require a lot of polygons being rendered realtime then I'd suggest to go with something which has dedicated GPU on it. Refrain from the U series and look for a laptop which has 2060/2060 super/1650 super/1660 super GPU options.

[@paramtapprajapati9948]

It does have a Backlit keyboard, I read it on a review on the link you provided for Amazon India. Check with your dealer or Amazon!!

[@francescovolpini]

thanks :)

[@tokyojerry]

Thanks for this review. I noticed your video is very recent (9/17) but to be expected as the product was just announced and put on sale 9/10 here in Tokyo. I was about ready to purchase this laptop as a replacement machine for my wife's somewhat aging ASUS F510UA. But I now hesitate. I like the design, but one thing that bothers me about 4700U (and 4500U) is, the processor is only single core, single-threaded whereas 4800U/4800H are single-core, double-=threaded. In short 8-cores / 8-threads for the Flip 14 versus 8-core/16-threads for other then Flip 14. This is a huge difference. You can get 4800U/4800H machines for prices that are about the same or not much higher. I reckon that for my wife's basic needs like most end users it is enough. Browsing, IM (instant messaging, music, etc.) For myself, I will want a machine that provides performance. My heaviest use case scenarios will probably be for video NLE using an application like Davinci Resolve. I was hoping this machine might even be sufficient for myself as well and buy two, one for the wife and one for myself. Watching your brief demonstration of doing some quick video editing, I can see the experience will not be smooth. So, I am thinking I should look at ASUS' gaming-level of portable laptops like TUF (cheaper) or ROG series. Those have the better performance 4800H / 4900H series of processes along with discrete graphics as well like Radeon's RTX-2060. So, if good enough for gaming, it should be plenty enough for 4K video edits in Davinci Resolve. Do you have any experience or recommendations with the objective of video editing in mind? My thinking is, if it's good enough for gaming, it should be good enough for video editing and rendering which is not nearly as performance demanding as games are. As for the wife, I think perhaps this level o machine should be sufficient. (maybe). The weak color gamut is a no-no for video edits. The table function is, well, somewhat gimmicky but ok. I mean, how often will she use this as a tablet? If that's the case, better to buy a cheap table from Aliexpress or Gearbest or places like that. I am considering AMD-based machines because AMD has truly been offering much better cost/performance at lower prices compared to equivalent Intel machines. For myself, I am also considering AMD's Zen 2 Ryzen-7 4000-series. Your opinion for (1) my wife's replacement machine (F-510UA versus ??) and for myself (ASUS TUF? ROG? Other?) I am partial to ASUS because they are well-supported and represented in Japan. However, there are AMD offerings from others as well, like Lenovo, HP Envy-series, Spectre-series, etc. Oh, and I want to be able to charge over USB-C so that I can easily charge while OTG without carrying around a heavy cluncky AC power brick. Sorry for the long message, but, watching you video triggered a lot of thoughts and reconsideration. Cheers, Jerry. Tokyo, Japan

[@MrMuBot]

Yes, a higher core count + dedicate GPU will always be better for 4K video editing. A 2060 will be good enough and should yield better than average results. It also depends on how many effects you put on a video. I think this should be sufficient for your wife as she would be using it for normal tasks. And for you definitely a TUF OR ROG series laptop with 6 core/12 thread or 8 core/16 thread with a 2060/2060 super or 1660 ti would be good. Just check the display s sRGB coverage of the screen before you finalize one. :)

[@tokyojerry]

@@MrMuBot Thanks a lot for your feedback. I am not sure on the sRGB color gamut coverage but I think it should be good enough. The model I am considering is the ROGG Zephyrus G15 GA502IV. jp.store.asus.com/store/asusjp/ja_JP/pd/productID.5413371600 As you suggest, it has AMD Ryzen 4800H (8core/16threads) and 2060 Max-Q. Being there is a special ongoing campaign right now, it seems to be a bargain at ¥ 163,455 JPY. And ASUS includes a free mouse and headset with the bundle as well worth ¥ 16,958 JPY. Thanks again.

You can take out the 4GB ram module and add 12GB or 16GB to it. But I don't think an external GPU is supported as there's no thunderbolt port.

[@francescovolpini]

@@MrMuBot are you sure? i thought this in the video was the same model i was looking at indeed it was not. thanks a lot! also, you don't need thunderbolt for the external gpu if you have ngff or nvme inputs on the moderboard. so once avain, can you confirm i'll be able to uphrade the ram from 4+4 to 4+16 on TM420IA-EC065T? thanks, i really am scared about getting a negative answer because it's the best bang for buck laptop here :)

The model you mentioned and this do seem similar in specs and features wise. So yeah about the RAM I'm correct. But no idea of that workaround for adding an external GPU. :)

I personally think you should go with flex5... Although as of now there is stock no where. And I don't know the price comparison yet. But, flex 5 is more durable and efficient battery (note:touchpad is more smooth nd responsive too)
