Initially, I was very satisfied with this ASUS Vivobook. Unfortunately, the laptop started acting up quite quickly. During heavy use, it would sometimes just shut down completely. At the time, I couldn't figure out what was causing this, and over time, the problem seemed to resolve itself. After that, I was able to use the laptop for months without any issues.
Unfortunately, problems have arisen again now. During intensive use, both the Wi-Fi and Bluetooth adapters suddenly cut out. Both work again after a restart, but the problem keeps recurring. I tried rolling back the drivers to an earlier version and then reinstalling the latest drivers via ASUS. After the update, everything seemed to work fine for about two days, but then, unfortunately, the problem started again.
That makes it extra frustrating, especially since the laptop is not even a year old (purchased in December 2025). In terms of usage and performance, it is otherwise a nice laptop, but the amount of software and driver problems I have had with it is truly disappointing. If these problems hadn't existed, it would be an excellent laptop as far as I'm concerned. But for a laptop that is not even a year old, I find this to be quite a hassle.
