At Computex 2018 today, ASUS announced the updated VivoBook Series laptops. The new VivoBook S15 and S14 come with all new lightweight design with unique color combinations and a choice of textured finishes. Finally, someone has decided to do something about boring traditional laptop colors. You have got following colors to choose from:

  • Firmament Green: With an air of mystery and charm, this color option features a graduated finish that hints at all the possibilities of a bright future.
  • Star Grey: A familiar classic is updated with a flash of red along its flanks. Think of it as the introvert who knows how to have a little fun.
  • Silver Blue: Optimistic and cheerful, Silver Blue features bright yellow accents along its side. Itโ€™s definitely a color of the future.
  • Gun Metal: A longtime favorite, itโ€™s a color of maturity and reliability.
  • Icicle Gold: The color for perseverance and elegance, Icicle Gold embodies true luxury.

Apart from the colors, ASUS has also included its precision-engineered ErgoLift hinge in these laptops. The new hinge has a silky-smooth dual action that holds the display securely at any angle, and slightly tilts the keyboard up by 3.5ยฐ to give you a perfect typing position every time. The ErgoLift hinge also improves cooling of the laptop.

The new NanoEdge display on VivoBook comes with an 86% screen-to-body ratio allowing you to enjoy more content without distraction.ย The 15.6-inch S15 weighs only 1.8kg, while the 14-inch S14 has an overall weight of 1.4kg.

They are powered by up to 8th Gen Intel Core i7 CPUs, 16GB RAM, NVIDIA MX150 GPU and up to 2TB HDD + 512GB SSD storage. There is a fingerprint sensor thatโ€™s integrated into the touchpad for Windows Hello login. A USB Type-C port ensures fast data transfer speeds and the fast-charging feature helps recharge a low battery to 60% in just 49 minutes.

ASUS VivoBook S15 and S14 will be available globally starting July 2018.
