Is the Asus Vivobook E510MA good for schoolwork?

Yes for documents, web research and video calls. It struggles with heavy multitasking, so keep open apps to a minimum.

Can I upgrade the RAM or storage?

Storage can be swapped, but RAM is soldered and capped at 4 GB, so there is no practical memory upgrade.

Does it have a full HD screen?

No. The 15.6-inch panel is HD at 1280x720, which looks less sharp than 1080p on this screen size.

Can it run Windows 11?

It ships with Windows 10 Home. Check the processor against Microsoft's Windows 11 supported list before relying on a free upgrade.

Is it good for gaming or video editing?

No. Intel UHD Graphics 600 and the Celeron CPU suit basic video playback, not games or editing.

When is the best time to buy it?

Budget laptops like this usually drop during back-to-school and Black Friday sales; compare the current price with its recent low before buying.
