Any better recommendations than asus vivobook?

Pandora

So im on a pretty tight budget right now and i need to replace my current laptop although i love it. simply put it's bulky and its battery life is too poor to be my daily driver.

 

i am looking at https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834235072&Description=asus mx150&cm_re=asus_mx150-_-34-235-072-_-Product

its my budget maybe even a little high.

 

what i need this laptop to do is light gaming WOWS WOW warthunder and other light games and im pretty sure the mx150 is up to the challenge.

 

my main problem is the poor reviews on this laptop when it comes to battery life, trackpad usability and keyboard flex.

 

i was wondering anyone here had any recommendations in the 500$ price range for a similar laptop. i don't mind buying used.

Your budget is a bit low for a new, decent laptop

 

Might want to go used/refurb
