ASUS has finally launched the newest iterations of its VivoBook series in the Philippines – VivoBook S14 and S15. Both are powered by Intel’s 10th Generation Core CPUs.
VivoBook series is aimed at the young professional who wants a no-compromise machine that’s not only stylish and compact but also packs all the horsepower for the daily grind, and the longevity to last.
Weighing at 1.4kg and 1.8kg and at only 15.9mm and 16.1mm thin respectively, VivoBook S14 and S15 are the perfect devices for moving around meetings and places. Both boast a three-sided NanoEdge display with FHD resolution to deliver an immersive experience.
The enter key on both devices now comes in a yellow accent for a more flashy touch. The devices even come with a set of stickers that you can use to make them more personal.
Under the hood is a 10th Generation Intel Core i5 or i7 processor backed by 8GB of DDR4 2666MHz RAM, NVIDIA GeForce MX 350/Intel Irus Plus/UHD Graphics, and a 512GB PCIe SSD. For connectivity, both have Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.0.
Both devices feature a harman/kardon-certified sound system, fast-charging on its 50Wh lithium-polymer battery, giving you 60% charge in just 49 minutes, and ASUS’ Integrated Battery Health Charging technology to help keep the battery in optimal condition.
