Design and Display

Vivobook Go is meant to be a portable entry-level laptop. It comes in an all-plastic chassis around 17.9mm thick and weighs 1.38 kilograms. Thus, you can carry it around in your backpack without much hassle. This laptop is also military-grade MIL-STD-810H certified for durability against different extreme environmental conditions. Users can choose from three colors — Mixed Black, Cool Silver, and Grey Green. However, their actual availability will differ between markets.Opening the lid, you are greeted with a 14” FHD display with a 16:9 aspect ratio. It is an anti-glare panel with 45% NTSC coverage and 250 nits of brightness. The bezels on the side are minimal, contributing to the 83% screen-to-body ratio. You can also notice the protrusion on the top that houses an HD webcam with a physical shutter.

Keyboard and Touchpad

Despite being a budget laptop, Asus has managed to include its signature "ErgoSense" keyboard on the Vivobook Go 14, which raises the bottom chassis slightly, making it easy for users to type on. Likewise, it also helps in thermals and audio performance. The keys are dashed and boast a 1.4mm key travel.Due to size limitations, there is no dedicated number pad. That said, the provided touchpad can double as a virtual number pad whenever you need to crunch numbers into the system.
