ASUS colorfully brings new VivoBook S14 S431  VivoBook S15

ASUS just launched the brand new laptops that were first shown back at Computex 2019! Focusing on the colors as these are inspired by color-blocking, the new VivoBook S14 and S15 comes in a variety of colors.

Both the VivoBook S15 S531 and VivoBook S14 S431 are similar in terms of name, but they are targeted towards two different audiences in the market.

Also, do remember to check out our review of the VivoBook S15 S531 here. We took a deep dive to look at the engineering behind this laptop. It took us by surprise!

THE ASUS VIVOBOOK S15 S531 IS MORE TOWARDS THOSE WHO WANT AN AFFORDABLE ALL-ROUNDER LAPTOP THAT IS SUITABLE FOR A LITTLE BIT OF EVERYTHING. WITH THE SPECS OF THE VIVOBOOK S15 S531, YOU CAN PLAY SOME GAMES ON IT – OVERWATCH FOR WHAT WE’VE TESTED – AND IT IS ABLE TO PERFORM JUST NICE. MOREOVER, THAT BEAUTIFUL DISPLAY REALLY MAKES IT A BLISS TO USE.

As for the VivoBook S14 S431, it is focused on those who want more CPU power and speed – perfect for those who work intensely with large Excel files.

Let’s not forget that although the VivoBook has slim bezels around all sides, they only took the proper compromises. The webcam is still located at the top and has Windows Hello too! That’s a great thing to have.
