Asus Vivobook S 16 OLED Review

The Asus Vivobook S 16 OLED proves mid-range laptops don't have to be bland, with a keyboard and a screen that bring plenty of flair.

Responsive, deep-action keyboard ; Fun colour keyboard backlight ; Rich OLED screen

Plastic touchpad ; Reflective plastic screen top layer ; Slightly under all-day battery life

The Asus Vivobook S 16 OLED proves mid-range laptops don’t have to be bland. Sure, it’s essentially a fairly high-performance everyday laptop with a bigger-than-most display and a trendy OLED panel, but there are other stand-outs.

Asus Zenbook S16 review: AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 tested

A sleek AMD-based laptop built for AI workloads.

Beautiful design ; Strong performance ; Big touchpad

Asus software has trials, wants accounts ; Display dimmer than competitors ; Battery life isn't as good as Arm laptops

The Asus Zenbook S16 is a pretty showcase for AMD's Ryzen AI 9 HX 370, with an attractive design with a spacious touchpad, not to mention strong performance. But its display could be slightly brighter, and Arm-based laptops have better battery life.

ASUS Vivobook S 16 OLED M5606 review – Eye-Catching Display, But Keep an Eye on the Specs

If you need a big and light machine with a great display, the ASUS Vivobook S 16 OLED M5606 can give you all that. The metal chassis is thin and decently solid. The OLED display (Samsung ATNA60BX01-1 (SDC4178)) amazes us with its sharp image thanks to...
