Most ultrabooks or thin notebooks come with screen size of 13 or 14-inch Asus Vivobook S starting price at Rs 59,990, is one of those rare ultra thin notebook that offer a massive screen while still retaining the light form factor and slim looks that one associates with the segment of computing devices.
Design: Stylish & Powerful with thin & light
The VivoBook S has all the makings of a premium notebook—full metal chassis made of aluminium and a brushed finish on the lid. This gives it a distinctive look compared to notebooks with bare metal finish. The base rests on four big and round rubber stands which holds it firmly on smooth surfaces. It weighs just 1.7kg which is impressive for a 15.6-inch screen notebook and makes it easy to carry around.
Display : NanoEdge Bezel, 80% screen-to-body ratio
The notebook’s prime attraction is the 15.6-inch non-touch display which packs resolution of 1,920x1,080p and has an anti-glare coating over it. This not only keeps reflection in brightly lit rooms at bay but also puts less stress on users’ eyes. It is a useful feature but common in notebooks at this price point these days. Despite the anti-glare coating, the screen looks vibrant and handles colours well. This makes it ideal for movie buffs.
SuperBattery :A safe fast-charging and longer-lasting battery
ASUS VivoBook S laptops feature a Lithium polymer battery that offers a 3x longer lifespan than standard Lithium-ion cylinder batteries. The new ASUS Battery Health Charging Technology prolongs battery lifespan, decreases battery expansion rate and helps ensures the battery stays in a good condition. Fast-charge technology also charges the battery to 60 percent in just 49 minutes.
Security : Fingerprint sensor
Accessing ASUS VivoBook S has never been easier or more secure. With the built-in fingerprint sensor in the touchpad and Windows Hello, there’s no need to type in your password every time to log in — just a single touch is all it takes!
The Vivobook S refutes the notion that ultra thin notebooks have to keep screen size less to keep weight in check and one has to spend upwards of Rs100,000 to get the top of the line hardware. It is powered by Intel’s latest 8th Gen Core i7 chipset with dedicated graphics, and offers the comfort of a big screen, which is unheard of at this price point and the ultra-book segment. If you are looking for an ultrabook with a big screen this is the best option available in the market.
