ASUS Vivobook S 15.6 inch 3K OLED 120Hz Laptop Intel Core Ultra 7-155H Evo Edition 16GB RAM 1TB SSD Mist Blue
Product Description:
The ASUS Vivobook S 15 OLED elevates your laptop encounter, harmoniously blending advanced technology with a clean, minimalist design at just 3.31 lbs. It showcases the power of the Intel® Core™ Ultra 7 processor for exceptional performance, a dedicated Copilot key for more AI exploration, a substantial 16-hour battery life, and a captivating 3K ASUS Lumina OLED screen. It also includes a 180° hinge, ergonomically designed keyboard with vibrant RGB backlighting, a bigger touchpad and an ASUS AiSense camera. This laptop is the perfect companion for modern life.
Can anybody recommend these? I've heard Asus is having some quality control issues but the prices and specs on these are very tempting.
Which other brand laptop with 3K OLED display, latest Core Ultra 7 CPU, 16GB LPDDR5 and 1TB SSD is $350? Actually show me any other brand that is less than $750. Waiting...
Had a Vivobook flip from 2020 that got a crack in the keyboard deck near the hinge even though I never dropped it and rarely used the flip tent mode. A model like the one posted here or a zenbook should not have this issue as they are all metal and don't have tent mode. But yeah, from the reviews and the youtube videos, if something does come up you will have to fight with their warranty department to get the fix done and also be vigilant say no to unnecessary part replacements that they apparently try to tack on to charge you.

I was tempted until I see customer service problems. I will pay 250 more to get a nice LG Gram so I wont go through hops when something happens to the pc
To all those complaining I got this laptop and build quality is amazing, this is a great laptop for the price, runs super fast, gets hot under function keys under load , for youtube and browsing its very cool.

no not overheating, it just gets hot near function keys if you do alot of dev work with alot of containers and alot of vscode, data software etc. That is my experience.
You also never gave us an example of a similar laptop for $350 (or even $750 for that matter).

BTW, I did order one and it'll be here today. Can't wait to check it out!
Agreed, but depends on how well the Windows ARM pans out. Could take years to reach the stability and transparency of Apple Silicon.
It looks like they will get 95% normal users already. Meaning people who are not running some specific apps for their work.
Corporate maybe sooner too since they have a new emulation layer. Could be good! I don't care about this part anyway. It's like Apple. Limited users in corporate but great for some. . I will pick a snapdragon up to play with.
ARM Windows VM on m3 chip is pretty fast so as long as windows emulation in windows 11 is good I think they may have a hit. I only gave it 2 CPUs and 4GB and chrome arm was flying
Adobe only has 2 major apps not ported over to run native yet. App other junk like office zoom and browsers are all g2g.
The fact they came out with copilot+pc features for ARM first because of the TOPS requirement could be a win for ARM. Intel supposed to have a chip coming with 40 TOPs (minimum to meet copilot+pc) but it's probably going to be crap for battery still.
The Yoga slim will have 1000 nits OLED screen with dragon plus (maybe it was elite) for $1300. That is pretty good spec. 16GB and 1GB SSD.
Can't wait for windows to screen cap everything I do… lmao. Supposed to be able to say - Don't record me when I am on Slickdeals.net but it's screen capping the entire screen… maybe they can automatically block certain apps such as Slickdeals app.

I was shocked looking at the pricing of the Surface Laptop with upgrades -- for the 15" model, it's $800 more to go from 256GB SSD/16GB RAM to 1TB SSD/32GB RAM. That's like $100 in parts for a normal laptop/PC. Thanks Apple for teaching other companies that you can charge outlandish prices for upgrades and people will buy it.

Microsoft's own hardware was always more expensive. Other company's like Dell, Lenovo will be cheaper

What do you mean gets hot? Is it overheating?
