The all-new Asus Vivobook 14X OLED falls between its Zenbook Pro and Vivobook series. It targets lifestyle creators, vloggers and artists with splendid designs and one-of-a-kind Asus DialPad feature, boasting exceptional creative flow within every tweak.

Ready to go, anywhere

Creativity never sleeps so the Vivobook 14X OLED is neutral yet contemporary. It matches any style available in a Black or Meteor White finish. While the former sports an anodized aluminum texture with a straightforward feel, the latter has a futuristic texture coating on the metal lid. This creates a subtle vibe that is designed to express yourself without any limitations.

Even before you open the laptop’s lid, its unique Asus logo makes it stand out from any other. With the Vivobook 14X OLED, Asus has opted for an expressive design. Inside, its ‘Enter’ key sports a warning-striped design with the ‘Esc’ key in orange giving the laptop an industrial theme.

Weighing just 1.45kg, the laptop is also the perfect companion for productivity and entertainment on the go. It can slip into your backpack allowing you to constantly explore wherever you are.

The Vivobook 14X OLED sports a 16:10 2.8K OLED NanoEdge display with a 600-nit brightness, ultrahigh contrast ratio, 90Hz refresh rate and an 86 per-cent screen-to-body ratio. With Asus’ OLED panels, you get 100 per-cent DCI-P3 best-in-class color gamut, 70 per-cent less harmful blue light and a 0.2ms fast response time, the fastest on any laptop.

With over 1 billion colors, the panel also delivers a cinema-grade multimedia experience. Content looks richer and more vivid, making the display an ideal companion for color-intensive projects as well. Black levels are also extremely impressive thanks to the display’s 1,000,000:1 contrast ratio with crisp and clear images even in the darkest scenes.

Supreme performance

Inside, the Vivobook 14X OLED sports an AMD Ryzen 9 5900HX 7nm CPU coupled with 16GB of DDR4 RAM, 1TB PCIe SSD storage and the Nvidia GeForce RTX 3050 Ti GPU. This enables you to challenge the limits of creation, editing and streaming without skipping a beat. This is further helped by a comprehensive heat dissipation solution and an exclusive software algorithm to ensure the best performance, even during heavy workload.

With its graphics card and Nvidia Studio certification, the laptop sees a boost in rendering performance too. Nvidia Studio supported laptops can render extra-large 3D models and edit up to 8K HDR RAW video snappier than ever. Moreover, you can also tap into AI-accelerated content creation across your favorite creative applications to take workflows from zero to ultra-speed in record time.

To complement this power, the Vivobook 14X OLED sports the Asus DialPad. This rests on the laptop’s trackpad and enhances the way you work within the operating system and in individual 3rd party applications. For example, you can use the DialPad to quickly adjust volume or brightness levels or use it for accurate scrubbing or brush control when editing pictures or videos in supported programs. It gives you a sense of creative control that you cannot experience with conventional laptops.

Unparalleled connectivity

To suit the needs of any creative, the Vivobook 14X OLED has a varied selection of ports. This includes a Type-C USB 3.2 Gen 1 port, an HDMI port, a 3.5mm headphone and a microSD card reader among others. You also find support for an HD webcam complete with a shield to ensure personal privacy and a communication experience boosted by Asus’ AI Noise-Cancelling Technology. Wireless connectivity options for the laptop are also plenty, with both Intel WiFi 6 support and Bluetooth 5.0. Running the show, the laptop packs a 63Wh battery. This supports fast-charge allowing you to go up to 60 per-cent in just 49 minutes.
