Asus VivoBook X540SA-BPD0602V Cheap 15.6″ Laptop (Intel Pentium, 4GB Memory, 500GB Hard Drive, Silver)

The 200-dollar Asus VivoBook X540SA-BPD0602V is yet another budget-class 15.6-inch laptop PC. As a good selling point in comparison to similar notebooks, the X540SA-BPD0602V includes an Intel Pentium processor which is faster than usual Celeron chips.
Besides the Intel Pentium N3700 CPU, the X540SA-BPD0602V model features 4GB of system memory, a 500GB hard disk drive, and a DVD burner as the main internal components. The N3700 combined with 4GB RAM is quite suitable for routine daily activities of the average PC user.
As expected, the display is a basic one. This plastic-cladded laptop in silver color sports 1366-by-768-pixel screen resolution. IPS technology for wide viewing angles is missing, as same as touchscreen functionality.
The notebook is equipped with a pair of classic USB ports and the latest type of USB ports called USB-C. The X520SA has a built-in stereo speaker system, a web-chat camera, Wi-Fi 802.11n wireless, Ethernet LAN port, HDMI and VGA video output connectors, an SD card reader, and a combo microphone / headphones jack.
According to the official product specs, this model can run “up to six hours” on a single battery charge.
