Product Overview
AI-generated summary
For £1,248.50 ex-VAT, the ASUS ExpertBook B5 B5404CM looks like a solid “business daily driver” rather than a bargain. The big draw is the Core Ultra 7 performance with plenty of RAM, which usually translates to smooth multitasking for typical office workloads, lots of browser tabs, and heavier admin apps without feeling like it’s fighting you. Add the touchscreen and you get optional workflow convenience for people who actually use it (on-site engineering, reception/booking, quick approvals) instead of it becoming an expensive gimmick.
That said, I wouldn’t buy it just because it’s spec-heavy. If your team mostly lives in Outlook/Teams/Office and occasional remote desktop, you can likely get similar real-world responsiveness cheaper. Also, touchscreen on 14" business laptops often means a bit more cost/fragility to factor in over a 3–5 year lifecycle—worth it only if it genuinely improves how your users work. Overall, this is best for SMEs and teams with power users who need reliable performance and modern connectivity (Wi‑Fi 6E) and will actually benefit from the higher-end CPU, not for “standard” deskspace fleet refreshes.
