This laptop is designed for basic daily computing tasks, such as web browsing, email, word processing, and media consumption. It is ideal for students or users needing a portable device for light productivity.

Can I install software from outside the Microsoft Store?

The laptop comes with Windows 10 Home in S mode, which restricts app installations to the Microsoft Store. You can switch out of S mode for free to install traditional desktop applications, but this action is irreversible.

How much storage space does this laptop have?

The ASUS E510MA-EJ015TS comes with 64GB of eMMC storage. This is suitable for the operating system and essential applications, but users may need to utilize cloud storage or external drives for larger files and media.

Is the RAM upgradable?

The 4GB of DDR4 memory is listed as 'on board' and 'maximum internal memory' of 4GB, suggesting it is not user-upgradable.

Does this laptop have a fan?

No, this laptop features a fanless design, which contributes to its quiet operation and helps minimize distractions.

What is the battery life like?

The laptop is advertised as having day-long battery life, meaning it should last for a typical workday or study session on a single charge under normal usage conditions.

What version of Windows does it come with?

It comes with Windows 10 Home in S mode, 64-bit. You may be eligible for a free upgrade to Windows 11 when available.

What connectivity options are available?

It features Wi-Fi 5 (802.11ac) for wireless networking, Bluetooth, one USB 2.0 port, one USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A port, one USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-C port, and one HDMI 1.4 port.

Troubleshooting

Laptop does not power on

Ensure the AC adapter is securely connected to both the laptop and a working power outlet. Try a different outlet. If the issue persists, contact support.

Wi-Fi not connecting

Check that Wi-Fi is enabled on the laptop. Restart your router and modem. Try forgetting the network in Wi-Fi settings and reconnecting. Ensure your router firmware is up-to-date.

Slow performance

Close unnecessary applications running in the background. Ensure Windows is updated. Consider uninstalling unused programs. If storage is nearly full, free up space by deleting unneeded files or moving them to cloud storage.

Display issues (flickering, no image)

Ensure the display brightness is turned up. If connected to an external monitor, check the cable connection. Update display drivers through Windows Update or the manufacturer's website. Restart the laptop.

  • Immersive viewing experience with thin-bezel NanoEdge display.
  • Convenient for collaboration with a 180° lay-flat hinge.

Cons

  • The Intel Celeron N4020 processor is suitable for basic tasks but may struggle with demanding applications or heavy multitasking.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Upon first boot, follow the on-screen prompts to set up your Windows 10 Home in S mode, including connecting to a Wi-Fi network and signing in with or creating a Microsoft account.
  2. Consider switching out of S mode if you need to install applications not available in the Microsoft Store. This process is free and irreversible. Navigate to Settings > Update & Security > Activation.
  3. Connect any essential peripherals using the available USB ports or the HDMI port.

Compatibility:

  • Operating System: Windows 10 Home in S mode (64-bit). Compatible with most UWP apps from the Microsoft Store. For broader software support, consider switching to a full Windows version.
  • Connectivity: Supports Wi-Fi 5 (802.11ac) for wireless networking and Bluetooth for connecting wireless peripherals like mice and headphones. It includes USB 2.0, USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A, and USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-C ports for wired devices.
  • Display Output: One HDMI 1.4 port for connecting to external monitors or projectors.

Care:

  • Cleaning: Use a soft, lint-free cloth slightly dampened with water or an approved electronics cleaner to wipe down the screen and exterior. Avoid spraying liquids directly onto the device.
  • Battery: To maintain battery health, avoid frequent deep discharges. It's recommended to plug in the AC adapter when the battery level is low and consider avoiding prolonged periods at 100% charge if feasible.
  • Storage: Given the 64GB eMMC storage, regularly manage your files. Utilize cloud storage services (like OneDrive, which is integrated with Windows) or external storage devices for documents, photos, and media to prevent the internal storage from filling up.
  • Ventilation: Although fanless, ensure the vents are not obstructed to prevent heat buildup, especially during extended use.
