The ASUS VivoBook E403NA-US04 14-inch budget laptop has received positive reviews for its stylish design that feels sturdy and solid. Users liked its sharp, 1920 x 1080 resolution display, its all-day battery life and its affordable price tag. However, while it does come with 1080p display, it is a TN display with very narrow viewing angles and the color representation is poor. Furthermore, the CPU is entry-level, and you only get 4GB of RAM, leading to a rather sluggish feeling laptop. Lastly, the 64GB of eMMC drive won’t allow you to store very many files. The ASUS VivoBook E403NA-US04 is suitable for essential day-to-day tasks, and it does come with a Full-HD display, which is generally rare at this price, but don’t expect to run anything more than basic apps, such as word processing, video streaming and basic web browsing.
Pros
- Sharp, Full-HD display
- Great construction

- Affordable
Cons
- Sluggish performance
- Limited storage space
- Display isn’t very bright
Bottom Line
The ASUS VivoBook E403NA-US04 14-inch is solidly constructed, has a sharp (but dim) 1080p display, and it packs enough battery power to get you through the day. If you are looking for a laptop that can run the essentials, then this is the perfect laptop for you.
