Question about the different Asus Vivobook S510UA models

[ffrodrigues]

Hi all,

I'm looking for a Asus VivoBook S, but I'm not sure about its different models.
Does anyone know the difference between the models BS51 vs DS51 vs RS51?, and BH71 vs DS71?
I'm not sure if those letters mean the year or maybe the features the model includes, and it seems that information is not available at Asus' site as well (If you know the link, please share it).
I'm also wondering how to know if they are 2017 or 2018 models.

Here's the models:

# i5
S510UA-BS51 (BestBuy Canada)
S510UA-DS51 (bhphotovideo)
S510UA-RS51 (bhphotovideo)

# i7
S510UQ-BH71 (bhphotovideo)
S510UA-DS71 (neweggg)

Thanks and regards

Did you compare them and see any differences? You seem to have the model numbers and where they are from, compare the specs and see.

Hi,

I'm aware of the hardware differences among those models (Asus site has a tool to compare them).
However, the site only provides the first part of the model name (i.e, S510UA or S510QUQ) for comparison.
It does't provide details on the differences between S510UA-XXX vs S510UA-YYY.
I'm looking for a model with English keyboard (not the bilingual one), and trying to avoid buying a 2017 model as well.
