ASUS 23.8 in All-in-One Desktop A3402 - Compact Touchscreen

Our review of the ASUS 23.8 in All-in-One Desktop A3402 finds a tidy, capable machine aimed at remote workers, students, and small offices who want a clutter-free desktop with solid performance. The single biggest reason to buy is the balance of a modern 10-core Intel i5-1235U CPU, 16 GB of RAM and a 1 TB SSD inside a slim all-in-one chassis with a responsive 23.8 in Full HD touchscreen, which makes everyday multitasking and web-based productivity feel fast and intuitive.

Key Features

• Modern 10-core processor: The Intel i5-1235U with up to 4.4 GHz turbo handles multi-tab browsing, office suites and light creative apps without noticeable slowdowns.
• 23.8 in Full HD touchscreen: The anti-glare display with ultra-thin bezels and 100% sRGB coverage delivers vibrant colors and convenient touch interaction for presentations and casual editing.
• All-in-one simplicity: Built-in speakers, webcam and a compact white chassis reduce desk clutter and simplify setup for home and small office use.
• Fast storage and memory: 16 GB RAM paired with a 1 TB SSD provides responsive boot and app load times and room for large documents and media libraries.
• Modern connectivity: Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.3, USB-C, HDMI and wired LAN support a range of wired and wireless peripherals and stable network connections.
• Audio and conference ready: Dual stereo speakers and two-way AI noise-canceling with a 720p camera help keep video calls clear and intelligible.

Who It's For

This all-in-one suits remote professionals, students and creative hobbyists who need a clean, space-saving desktop with reliable everyday performance and a touch display for more interactive workflows. The built-in speakers, webcam and AI noise-canceling make it especially convenient for frequent video conferencing without extra peripherals.

Those who need heavy photo/video editing on a dedicated discrete GPU, high-end gaming, or modular upgradeability should look elsewhere; the A3402 prioritizes integrated Intel Iris Xe graphics and compact design over desktop-class expandability.
