ASUS warranty: Everything important about runtime, support and automated warranty check

The most important thing in brief:

  • Warranty scope and duration: ASUS offers a standard warranty of 1 to 2 years for many devices, often depending on region and product type.
  • RMA process and legal warranty: In the event of defects or damage, ASUS uses the Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA) process to check whether there is a warranty claim and how to repair the device.
  • Efficient documentation with Docusnap: With Docusnap, all relevant data such as serial numbers, invoices and warranty periods can be centrally retrieved and managed.

ASUS warranty - definition and explanation

The ASUS warranty describes the voluntary service provided by the manufacturer ASUS to assist customers with hardware defects or technical problems. This warranty is usually limited in time (often 1 to 2 years, depending on region and product type) and sometimes exceeds the legal warranty. This means that if there are defects during the warranty window that were not caused by themselves, the owner can have the device repaired or have it replaced without having to pay for the defect.

Statutory warranty vs. manufacturer warranty

Many customers are uncertain whether they can rely on the statutory warranty or on the manufacturer's warranty in the event of damage. In Germany, for example, there is a two-year warranty from the date of purchase. In the first six months, the dealer bears the burden of proof that there was no defect (reversal of the burden of proof). The customer is then required to prove that the defect already existed. The manufacturer warranty, on the other hand, runs independently and may also include other services.

Other European countries have similar, but different details. Anyone ordering from abroad should therefore find out exactly which regulations apply. A helpful overview is, for example, here at Your Europe to find.

Relevance for used devices

The warranty plays an important role, especially when buying second-hand. If the previous owner has properly registered the device and provides the required documents, the remaining warranty period can often also be transferred to the new owner. However, it is advisable to clarify in advance whether ASUS allows this and what steps are necessary to do so.

Official ASUS warranty information

ASUS provides official documents detailing the exact conditions for each product (such as laptops, motherboards, or smartphones). The standard warranty period often varies between 12 and 24 months, depending on the region. There are also differences depending on the product series:

• High-end models sometimes come with a longer warranty than basic devices.
• Parts subject to wear and tear, such as batteries, may be excluded from the warranty or may only have a shorter term.
• Screens (displays) often have special guidelines, for example with regard to defective pixels.
• Damages that are clearly self-inflicted (e.g. water damage) are generally not covered by the warranty.

Detailed information, including the respective exceptions, can be found directly on the ASUS website. A good place to start is the official ASUS support page, which contains manuals, drivers and warranty policies for the individual devices.

ASUS warranty check

With the help of Online warranty check (by entering the serial number), you can quickly find out whether your hardware is still within the warranty period. It is important that the data is stored correctly and that the serial number is registered with ASUS. For used devices, this also makes it possible to see whether the buyer is still entitled to the remaining period of the warranty.

Support and RMA processes

In the event of damage or suspicion of hardware faults, an RMA process is usually initiated. This process regulates:

  1. contacting: Via hotline, online form or chat support.
  2. Failure analysis: ASUS checks whether there is a warranty claim.
  3. repair processing: Delivery and collection options vary depending on the country.
  4. Timing: Here you can find out approximately how long the repair will take.

However, it quickly becomes clear that without a solid overview of all documents (purchase receipts, invoices, warranty cards, serial numbers) or clear information about the process, it can be cumbersome to report the defect and track the status of the repair. This is exactly where structured IT documentation with the help of software such as Docusnap can be used. This is where you store all relevant information — including warranty status and date of purchase — centrally and can access it at any time.

ASUS warranty documentation — and how Docusnap helps

In many IT environments — whether private or corporate — there are several devices that have different warranty periods. Notebooks, smartphones, mainboards, and accessories each have their own serial numbers, documents, and expiration dates. You can quickly lose track of things.

An efficient solution for Inventory and documentation is Docusnap. The software was developed specifically for IT environments and offers extensive functions:

  • Automated inventory all hardware and software on a network.
  • Overview of warranty and license periods using freely configurable input masks.
  • Central storage of documents such as purchase receipts, warranty notes, and service contracts.
  • notifications when guarantees expire soon, so that action can be taken in good time.

In addition to Hardware inventories and documentation tasks in Docusnap, for example, you can also create network plans and visualize dependencies between individual services.

Tips for verifying your ASUS warranty

1. Compile documents and processes

  • serial number, model name, date of purchase, seller
  • Warranty period, evidence of warranty extensions, if applicable
  • Manufacturer contact options (hotline, email address, etc.)

IT environments are constantly changing, particularly in companies: new devices are being added, old ones are being discarded. Therefore, keep your inventory list up to date and check at fixed intervals whether there have been any changes.
