The ASUS VivoBooK E203NA-YS03 11.6-inch laptop is a budget laptop that has received positive reviews for its clean design, its good battery runtime, its extremely portable design and its USB Type-C port. However, customers were critical of its limited storage and performance, finding that while it carries out the usual non-demanding tasks well, such as streaming, word document editing and browsing, it isn’t cut out for anything more than light use. Even though it has an appealing design, it is made entirely of plastic, which makes it feel cheap and there is said to be some keyboard flex. It also features a low quality TN display that is slightly dim. For those on a budget, you will struggle to find many laptops that don’t underperform, fortunately its battery life, and lightweight, appealing design make up for it.
Pros
- Appealing design
- Lightweight for maximum portability
- Super fast USB Type-C port

Cons
- Good battery life
- Keyboard flex

Bottom Line
What the ASUS VivoBooK E203NA-YS03 lacks in performance, it makes up for in its solid battery life, portable design, and a generally cute look.

The Asus VivoBook E203NA looks pretty for a budget notebook, but its bland display, short battery life and inexcusably dark webcam make using it a chore.

The VivoBook E12 can score with its noiselessness and long battery runtime. At a weight of around one kilogram, it is one of the lightest of its kind.
