ASUS Vivobook Pro 15 OLED, AMD Ryzen 7 5800H, 15.6″ (39.6 cm) OLED, Thin & Light Laptop (16GB/1TB SSD/4GB NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050/Windows 11/Office…

Lives up to what it claims to be: a lightweight multipurpose laptop. The screen is amazing but requires maintenance and mindfulness to prevent OLED burn-in. Very good with casual gaming and working balance, battery lasts around 7 hours while using browsing the internet and using MS-Office.

Some random things that came up which might not be obvious at first after using it for a couple of weeks:

Pros-
1. Great battery life when used for work stuff. This can be improved by disabling the GPU which I haven’t tried yet but already get about 4-5 hours from 80% to 20% charging cycles.
2. Colours on the screen are truly beautiful, you’d want to re-play games or re-watch movies just to appreciate how stunning they’re capable of being.
3. The MyAsus app is very helpful in customizing specific settings to improve the health of the laptop or to customize settings for specific purposes (gaming, productivity, media consumption).
4. Very fast to boot up and sign in with the 1TB SSD. The fingerprint power button scans your finger when you turn it on so it goes straight to the desktop instead of the sign-in screen.
5. The 16GB RAM make it very easy to play pre-2021 games at good graphics and to have multiple games downloaded in the huge SSD. The laptop doesn’t get loud and doesn’t heat up too much to be noticeable. Hitman 3, Shadow of the Tomb Raider, GTA V, Fortnite all worked flawlessly and looked great.
6. Lightweight so it’s very comfortable and convenient to carry on the go.
7. Perfect for photo/video editing based on the hardware capabilities and the amazing range of colours on the screen.
8. Very cool and quiet in regular usage.
9. Web camera quality is very sharp.

Cons-
1. Using the camera drains the battery surprisingly quickly. Being on Zoom and Google Meets with the webcam on has a very quick battery drain.
2. There might be some driver issues, my mouse stopped working for a whole day and I could not figure out a solution. Use the MyAsus app to update drivers and BIOS as it fixes driver issues easily where Windows Driver Updates don’t work.
3. The angle of the laptop screen hinges is very limited, something I did not pay attention to when buying. It only does about 120 degrees or so which might be a hindrance depending on the angle at which you place the laptop on your desk.
4. The graphics card is somewhat lacking but then again it is not supposed to be an all out gaming laptop. Games like FIFA23 work smoothly but not on high graphics settings which is to be expected.
5. If you want to make the screen last for 3+ years it is important to implement a lot of settings like taskbar auto-hide, task window dimming, cycling wallpapers, short screen timeout, dark modes everywhere etc. because bright elements at a fixed spot can cause OLED burn-in.
6. The screen despite being great is only Full HD 1080p at 60hz refresh rate. Was hoping for 120hz at this price but that’s the trade-off with getting an OLED screen.
7. There are no media function buttons on the keyboard to play/pause/forward/rewind music which I’ve been used to on most laptops so had to implement trackpad gestures to be able to do this.

The cons are me being nit-picky, otherwise this so far seems to be a perfect laptop if you’re getting it primarily for work and hoping to just casually game as a pastime.

Amazing laptop with allrounder performance but bad speaker quality overall it’s a very amazing product

A good value laptop, with brilliant specs for the price point.
I did find some lag at times, like the hide unhide of the taskbar at time.
Speakers are really bad, though they are just sound by harmon/kardon, but for this price point your phone speakers are way better than what they have provided.
Screen looks stunning, though i get a pop of not lowering the brightness below 50 even if i want to, thats a drawback for me. I need the control to be able to use without hinderance if i have paid 80k for something.
I am yet to try games as i have taken this laptop for DJ and music production
Laptop heating i have not faced, using a stand which can dissipate heat.
Battery with media using is around 5-6 hrs max, but its good.
Keyboard is smooth to type, but the power button and delete button is a trouble to get a hang on
Camera quality is horrible, ul need a good webcamera

Suggestions
1. Have a speaker add on to this laptop
2. Better to go for i5 than ryzen. I feel it will be better at performance.
3. Unbeatable price, so for the flaws i cn put in some extra effort.

Light weight, screen is awsme. Filmora runs smooth
