Let me know what you this about this laptop. I feel this is a great value proposition for those that don't want to break the bank but don't want to skimp on some high end features. Let me know what you think.
Fantastic review as always! I was wondering if you could compare the performance to the Spectre x360 16, with the same core ultra 7 CPU but with RTX 4050 graphics. I'm really looking to buy this laptop, but I've heard some performance issues; looking to see how it compares with other laptops such as this one
Great review. Love that you compared it with the LG Gram 16 .
Excellent review. Good to see Asus not limiting the TDP on their GPUs like earlier Vivobook models.
Andrew! Thanks for posting this video
Love the review. When are you releasing the LG pro 16 review?
I replaced my old photo editing desktop beast with this since I found it as an open box deal for $795. I upgraded the RAM to 40 gb for $71 and added a 4tb data M.2 drive for $300. This thing rocks.
Nice to see your new video Andrew. Pros and cons good compared and nice video quality as alsways. 🥇
Thanks
Would you recommend this over the Asus ZenBook 14 OLED? Or would the ZenBook still be the better option of the 2
Thank you for a very informative video, much appreciated
Just got the Zenbook 14 with a RTX 3050 45w. It beats the GTX 1060 6GB laptop I had before and is a massive efficiency upgrade. With ray tracing off, it it pretty much somewhere in between a GTX 1060 and a GTX 1660.
YADA YADA YADA...., love it) Simple & clear review as always.
Thanks for watching!
Andrew, please review
"Asus Vivobook S15 OLED (S5506)"
I think the background blur looked good
Nice laptop. Camera and mics were good. Speakers sounded okay. Display good. Overall very good value for what you get especially when it is on sale. Keyboard is okay although the design of the numpad is poor. Asus should redesign it or remove it as in its current layout not very practical. Like the upgradeability options with this. Another excellent review from an excellent reviewer.
would you say this is good for graphic design
hey andrew can u do a review on the asus vivobook s14 oled (ryzen 9)
I bought the 2 TB version for around 700-800$ at Best Buy under “fair” condition but it looks brand new. Is that a good price for these specs? Using mostly for online school and play a game here and there on Xbox game pass (came free for a month)
You can also get the new Vivobook S 16 with core ultra 9 185h 16gb ram for $899 at Staples
Hi Andrew! Do you plan to make a review of the new MSI stealth 16 AI studio A1V (2024)? A lot of people are considering this laptop as an alternative to the new Zephyrus g16 because of its fan noise. Then, it would be really helpful since there are currently no solid reviews thereof. Thank you in advance and have a nice day!
Hopefully soon
The Asus VivoBook Pro 15 OLED for the base price of $1049.99 on sale at Best Buy is a pretty good one most suitable for a student or someone who doesn't want to spend a lot of money on a decent laptop. Obviously, it doesn't have all the bells and whistles but at this price point, it's a good value in my opinion. It will not break the bank at the end of the day and that is the key here. Great review Andrew!! 👍😁
Thanks 🙏
I've been waiting on the vivobook s14 or yoga 9i 2 in 1, but this seems like a good option. Great review though.
I have the S14
Awesome!
The new Dell XPS 13 would be interesting.
Can you please review the MSI Prestige 16 AI
Wow the webcam seems actually good for a windows laptop.
can you review asus vivobook 14s oled 2024?
M5506 or m5606 review please
Very similar to the Q540 Model, 13900H, 16 DDR5 4800, a better screen Oled 120hz 2880x1620, 2 nvme ports, 1 slot for RAM, same GPU 3050 6gb
Waiting for the HP Envy review!!
Just received both the 14 and 16
Please make a review of a new hp omen laptop with 14 gen intel core processors
if undervolt 3050 - good laptop. it can perform on 650mV. by default nvidia settings 900mV.
on my laptop with 1660ti with undervolt i can play even on battery without big fps drop and low noise level.
I really hope my listing isn't false, because mine that I'm looking at on best buy is core ultra 7/w 4060. Not 4050.
Sucks because I can barely afford this.
But I need a laptop for work. Guess food can wait. :(
Please review lenovo yoga pro 7 2024 with AMD ryzen 7 8845Hs + 3050 6GB.
I’m looking for the charger for this Q533MJ, if anyone knows where I can purchase another charger all the help would be greatly appreciated.
Tho this laptop is a complete steal deal for a 100 bucks more you can get the 2024 zephyrus g14 with a rtx 4060
This certainly 100% competes with Lenovo's ideapad pro 5i (2024) in terms of specs directly, although the ideapad is 16 inch.
Agreed
i like the plastic build quality of vivbook they are platic but made well. i just hope they can bring the weight down
It's metal body and plastic around the bezels
The screen resolution is low for 2024. I would like to have a 2560-by-1440 IPS over this OLED. (Probably cost prohibits the use of a 2560-by-1440 OLED.) Asus is pushing OLED too hard even when it doesn’t make sense.
Anyone choosing this laptop would do well to stay with 16GB. With 8GB soldered, adding a 16GB module (for 24GB total) will push the machine into single channel memory mode, crippling performance. A good choice for lefties with so many ports on the right edge. For those of us who do it the right way, using those ports may put a bunch of devices/cables in the way if using a mouse. Overall seems like a reasonable choice when at the sale price... A bit expensive for my taste at the list price - For that money I'd personally find the unit more interesting with the port situation reversed, a 16:10 display, and/or no numpad (centered keyboard).
Actually, that's not exactly the case with DDR5. One stick is dual channel; two sticks is quad channel. With DDR4 and earlier, what you were mentioning was true though. It's not anymore with DDR5 RAM.
But yeah, 16 : 9 needs to die.
@@cameronbosch1213 Numbers I've seen beg to differ though yes DDR5 - Generally - Does operate a bit differently than older types.
8GB of the memory sonboard in 2024 is just an awful decision (although it still come with 1 sodimm slot )
If you do onboard memory at least do 16 , then user can put a 16 sodimm and get 32GB
Edit: changed to a better word maybe (sorry not native English speaker but you get what I mean)
Yeah, would have been better.
I wouldn't use that word, but yeah, 8 GB soldered RAM is absolutely a deal breaker in 2024, that should have been 16 GB soldered with a RAM slot.
@@cameronbosch1213 changed to a slightly better word I can think of 😂
My English is still broken but any suggestions are welcome
Asus been doing 8GB onboard ram for a long time but the trade off is huge in ddr4/DDR5
Using this hybrid on board design you saved some space but lost the ability to use high speed low voltage LPDDR4/5
And user purchased memory does not always match the soldered memory chip brand
They mostly work with jedec standards but you won't get the best timing when mixing Samsung with hynix etc :(
for that price It should really have a 4050 atleast.
lost interest after I heard about rtx 3050
why these compenies are putting ancient slow gpus when the new one are already available? how much are they saving? I don't find any reason they give justify putting rtx 3050 in 2024
I am pretty sure its due to price. If they would drop a 4060 or above it would add a few more hundred dollars to the cost.
@@andrewmarcdavid Pretty sure the implied question is "why 3050 and not 4050", where the newer chip is a massive improvement over 3050, something that cannot be said about 4060 which you mention (for what reason - I do not know). Also if you want FHD oled screen and 3050 - there are still some units from previous season that do just that priced quite nicely.
Why would i overpay for a rehash of something that's already out for some time and is scoring major price drops as we speak?
Lol. Rtx 3050 in 2024. It,s very bad.
FYI, its not a gaming laptop though. Its serves for content creation. Older RTX discrete GPU's can handle that kind of work.
Not bad
I have the RTX4060 version. The best laptop i couldve bought, honestly
@@meddyah can you game properly on that model? Im a bit worried about thermals
3050 is perfectly serviceable for everything except the highest graphics settings on modern games. It’s also not even a gaming laptop
👍👍👍
