ASUS has taken the wraps off its latest flagship laptop, the Vivobook S 15, at the Computex trade show in Taipei. The Vivobook S 15 is the company’s first “CoPilot+” device, integrating advanced AI capabilities from Windows 11 to elevate productivity, creativity, and entertainment.
Powering the Vivobook S 15 is the Snapdragon X Elite chip from Qualcomm, featuring a custom Oryon CPU and built-in Hexagon AI accelerator. With an impressive 45 TOPS of AI processing power, this laptop can easily handle demanding AI workloads such as video editing and generative AI content creation.
A key highlight is the Vivobook S 15’s deep integration of new Windows AI tools. These include Studio Effects for intelligent background blur and noise removal on video calls, live captions, and the AI Cocreator app that transforms sketches into polished digital artwork via generative AI.
ASUS has also developed exclusive AI applications for an enhanced experience. The StoryCube app utilizes AI to automatically sort, edit, and manage photos and videos for seamless curation. Additionally, an AI-powered webcam enables intelligent auto screen dimming when the user looks away and secure facial recognition for lock/unlock.
Under the hood, the Vivobook S 15 packs a punch with up to 32GB LPDDR5X RAM and 1TB PCIe 4.0 SSD storage. The stunning 15.6-inch 3K 120Hz OLED display boasts a 100% DCI-P3 color gamut, HDR600 support, and a lightning-fast 0.2ms response time. Harman Kardon-tuned audio with Dolby Atmos delivers an immersive sound experience.
Despite its impressive performance, the Vivobook S 15 is remarkably portable at just 14.7mm thin and 1.42kg light, with an all-metal chassis. The 70Wh battery offers up to 18 hours of battery life, and the laptop features the latest WiFi 7 connectivity.
