Asus vivobook s15 and s14, laptops with a special double screen

The path of touchscreens as touchpads triumphed, so ASUS wants to squeeze the goose out of the golden egg. This ingenious system of "double screen" is included in other equipment such as ZenBook and Computex 2019, ASUS rescued us to reinstall it to the ASUS VivoBook S15 and S14. Stay and we'll show you what's new in these laptops.

ASUS VivoBook, “dual screen” laptops

ASUS VivoBook S15 laptops

ASUS laptops are quite successful among laptop users. From the ZenBook range to the VivoBook , the company has gained extensive experience in this world. That is why at Computex today they have shown us two of their latest iterations of laptops to work, the ASUS VivoBook S15 and S14 ultrabooks .

These ultra-light computers have the power to perform multiple tasks in parallel thanks to their powerful processors. On the other hand, they usually sacrifice the graphics by carrying an integrated one, to simply do certain simple tasks. The total computation ends with a great equipment for calculation works weighing between 1.0 and 2.0Kg. (Of course, playing video games is almost totally restricted).

For this version, we have two models: one of about 15 ″ and another of about 13 ″. The 15 laptop has an 8th generation Intel Core i7 at heart and is accompanied by an auxiliary graphics called Nvidia MX250. It will also support the new Wi-Fi 6 standard and will bring an Optane H10 memory .

Spotify on Screenpad 2.0

As a differentiating feature from the competition we have the announced Screenpad 2.0 . The screen normally works like any other laptop. However, we do have the ability to use it as a menu, a player, or a second screen (a little small, yes).

Screenpad 2.0 Options Screen

Although it may seem not very useful, it all depends on how resourceful you are. The experience is similar to when you have two screens. At first you don't know what to do with two, but once you get used to it, you feel that a single screen is not enough

The smaller version of this laptop will have slightly lower features, although like other models, it is likely that they will release a series of versions where the price increases as the components are improved.

On the other hand, it also loses the numerical keyboard, news that many users will regret with regret.

Laptops will have at least:

• 1 SD card reader1 3.5mm3 jack USB1 USB-C1 HDMI

From experience, it is very likely that we will never see an ethernet input on these computers, which we do not like too much. Other brands have been able to create these ports with ingenious systems and it is something that only benefits the user.

Lightness or power

The choice between weight or power is something that has always been, but that better hybrid options are appearing every time. However, we still don't live in that idyllic world of perfect laptops.

The most direct answer to this is: Will you use the graph? o Do you want to play video games?

Ultrabooks have the grace of weighing around 1.0Kg , so carrying them is very comfortable. In exchange they sacrifice the graphics power that would allow them to run games or video editing programs, for example.

With the ASUS VivoBook S15 and S14 we are in the same position. The graphics of the VivoBooks are practically auxiliary, so they do not have much power. In return, we have a good processor (although not a ninth generation) and features such as Screepan 2.0 or the excellent weight.

We think that if it will only be for work, these laptops or those in this range will be your thing. If you often intersperse studies / work with video games or sporadic editing, you better go for bigger choices.
