The world’s first colourful Ultraportable with ScreenPad™ 2.0
ASUS VivoBook S15 is an unconventional take on daily computing, with unique colour-blocking design that tells the world that you go against the grain. It features the innovative ASUS ScreenPad™ 2.0 to improve multitasking and change the way you work with your laptop.
EXPRESS YOURSELF
Ordinary is over
SCREENPAD™ 2.0
The intelligent touchpad, evolved
The new ScreenPad™ 2.0 upgrades the traditional laptop experience, adding an interactive secondary touchscreen that enhances your productivity and gives you endless possibilities. Its intuitive smartphone-like interface lets you easily manage tasks and create your own seamless multitasking workflow. There’s a series of handy ASUS utility apps to boost productivity including Quick Key — for one-tap automation of complex keyboard sequences — along with Handwriting, Number Key, Doc Xpert, Slide Xpert and Sheet Xpert.
Endless possibilities
ScreenPad™ 2.0 intelligently fits many apps into the 5.65-inch touchscreen, and you can effortlessly add apps to ScreenPad for instant access. The newly-optimised ScreenPad experience ensures that your favorite apps, such as Evernote® and Spotify®, will work perfectly on this secondary display right away, without the need for a ScreenPad-specific version. ASUS also works closely with third party developers, including video-editing software developer Corel®, to optimise adaptive ScreenPad tools for the ultimate productivity — and there’s much more to come. Get ready for the ScreenPad revolution!
COLOURS
Discovery through colour
It’s time to be bold and show the world your uniqueness with VivoBook S15. It has three striking discovery inspired colour blocking styles. Building on the positive vibes generated by the colours of the previous generation, these latest colour combinations and exquisite finishes highlight the intricate designs of VivoBook S15.
DESIGN
Never ordinary
It’s all about the details with VivoBook S15. It’s edgy, setting itself apart by being the first in the range to sport the VivoBook logo on its lid, and its sleek metal chassis stands out with a tactile textured finish. Colour-blocking side accents give it a svelte look, and additional design elements include twill-inspired vents for the speakers and cooling system.
ERGOLIFT
Give yourself a lift
Open up VivoBook S15 to enter a world of productivity and possibilities. Its precision-engineered ErgoLift hinge has a silky-smooth dual action that holds the display securely at any angle, and slightly tilts the keyboard by 3° to give you a perfect typing position every time.
FREE YOURSELF
Break free from limitations
THIN AND LIGHT
Lighten the load
VivoBook S15 is the ultraportable that doesn’t weigh you down. Ultrathin and light, simply slip it into your messenger bag or backpack, and away you go!
NANOEDGE DISPLAY
See and do more on a frameless display
It’s time to push the limits of what’s possible. The new four-sided NanoEdge design gives VivoBook S15 a frameless, almost-bezel-free display with vast amounts of screen area and extremely immersive visuals, perfect for work or play.
