The “ultra-thin” ASUS Vivobook S 15 has Windows AI features like memory assistant To rememberthe image generator Co-creatorand several ASUS-exclusive AI applications.
One of the most intriguing AI-powered features of the ASUS Vivobook S 15 is the use of the AiSense IR camera. ASUS says it can detect your presence and adjust the screen accordingly. If you look away, the screen will dim and light up again when you look back. And if you walk away from your computer, it will lock – and unlock when you return. Although we cannot guarantee its effectiveness before trying it, the feature seems very useful for security and privacy if performed consistently.
Another built-in AI feature is StoryCube, an app that ASUS says can automatically organize RAW photos and videos. In addition to standard Copilot+ features announced on MondayAdditionally, the laptop also includes Windows Studio Effects, which can automate lighting adjustments and noise removal in video calls. It also supports Microsoft’s Live Captions (AI-powered real-time subtitles).
On the hardware side, the Vivobook S 15 runs on Snapdragon X Elite Chip with an integrated Qualcomm Hexagon neural processing unit (NPU), which ASUS claims can process 45 TOPS (that’s 45 trillion operations per second). The PC comes with a 1TB PCIe 4.0 SSD and up to 32GB of 8,448MHz LPDDR5X RAM.
The laptop has a 15.6-inch OLED display with a resolution of 2,880 x 1,620 and an 89 percent screen-to-body ratio. It also includes a Harmon Kardon certified audio system with Dolby Atmos sound. ASUS claims its 70 Wh battery can last up to 18 hours.
One of the selling points of the Vivobook S 15 is its thin aluminum body: its tapered design has a thickness that ranges from just 0.58 to 0.63 inches (14.7 mm to 16 mm). The PC weighs just 1.4 kg (3.13 pounds), slightly lighter than Apple 15-inch MacBook Air.
The laptop has a healthy selection of ports, including two USB4, two USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A, HDMI, an audio combo jack, and a microSD slot. Your keyboard features customizable single-zone RGB lighting and a Copilot key for quick access to the assistant powered by ChatGPT.
