Instantly added speed to the home network. Was paying monthly internet bills and not fully tapping into the speed. After installed for a while, learned about some cool features, such as remote access for resetting or traffic monitoring.

After running out of storage on playstation and doing some research, decided to go with this one. Hooking up was quick and simple. It has been reliable ever since, and i keep it hooked up to ps4 to keep saved content and save space on the internal hdd.

Purchased to eliminate the difficulty of hooking HDMI and power cables up on a tv mounted tight to the wall. Works great, and overall better than any wall mount I've used before.

Purchased the S2 over the others because of its specs, and I have not been disappointed. I had originally anticipated still using my laptop somewhat frequently, but have used it rarely since bringing this home.

Good TV. Picture is great. Using mainly for PS4. Although not a top of the line 4K, and there are other sets with a better picture, for the price this one really cannot be beat.

Purchased this to replace an older laptop. I was sold on the weight and transportability of this unit. When compared to my older laptop, it was missing a lot of the features I liked. It doesn't have an Ethernet connection and only has a couple USB ports. I'd rather have a bulkier unit with all the features than this slimmed down version. In my opinion you'd be better off getting an actual tablet instead of this hybrid. The hi-res screen is nice, but many programs or apps don't support that high of a resolution. Also read a lot of reviews about the screen cracking.

Versatile laptop with many great features. It has great specs with the i7, 8gb of ram, 1080p IPS screen. The 2 in 1 is also a great feature. The laptop is also very durable and has a solid construction. May consider upgrading the hard drive to SSD to make it the best laptop on the market.

is it upgradable?

What can i upgrade on this?

Hdd? Ram? Gpu? Anything other?
You can definitely upgrade the HDD and the Ram. I'm considering replacing the HDD with a SSD just to make it faster and increase battery life. The ram can also be upgraded up to 12 GB from the stock 8GB.

Doe this laptop run HOT?

Runs cool when compared to other laptops. I had an older Toshiba that runs much hotter. Also purchased and returned a Lenovo Yoga 2- it ran much much hotter than the Asus.
