Wednesday, October 06, 2021

     My first blogging laptop is ASUS K555L, an entry laptop model that was launched six years ago. I have no regrets about choosing this brand because I've tried and tested its performance and durability for a long time already. Fast forward today, ASUS has launched new laptop models from its ZenBook series. When I first saw this laptop, I said to myself that it's time to upgrade to a more portable one. Don't get me wrong, I still love my ASUS laptop. It's still working fine and can do a lot of things up to this day. I never had problems when it comes to performance or hardware issues. But it's also nice to do an upgrade, especially if buying a new laptop will help me stay motivated and keep my productivity high as I work easy using this baby that's boasting timeless beauty and effortless portability.

     In a world full of uncertainty, there's one thing that's certain when it comes to technology and all things laptop. Say hello to the World's thinnest 14" laptop with QHD Display powered by 11th Gen Intel Core processor and Intel Iris Xe graphics- The all-new ZenBook 14 (UX425EA) – a 14-inch ultraportable laptop now packed with more power and speed, advancing productivity and creativity wherever, whenever. It's love at first sight! ZenBook 14 is so light, compact, and pretty on the outside but it's powerful and incredible on the inside.

5 Reasons Why You Need an ASUS ZenBook

Sunday, May 29, 2016

     We live in an era where we strive hard to be powerful. Don't get me wrong, but my definition of power does not only focus on wealth and fame. We can be powerful in other ways and means. We can achieve my so-called 'power' in everyday living. We can be powerful in the way we dress or in the things that we use to finish our daily tasks.

     It can be in things that we use everyday or simply the achievements that we have done so far. As a blogger and social media enthusiast, I need powerful equipment/gadgets that will make my work easier and better. It's a no brainer that one of my weapons include a laptop and it's not an ordinary laptop because I need a powerful one that will also fit my lifestyle. I have an ASUS Laptop which I bought last year and I must say that it's a good investment because it's powerful that I can multi-task making work faster and easier.
