      Very nice. But what about AMD modification? With Ryzen 9 8945 hs 32gb of ram. This year ASUS for Zenbooks and Vivobooks has give us a choice between Intel and amd, there is zenbooks with intel or amd and vivobooks with intel or amd. It will be great to see AMD versions and compere them.

    I wanted something powerful yet portable. I went for this since the Vivobook S14 wasn't available here. Im so satisfied with the choice

    OLED is nice and all...but if you're spending $900 on a laptop with no dGPU in it, just for a nice display, why not go for an HP Pavilion Plus 14 with AMD? 8845HS + 16GB + 1TB + 2880x1800 OLED display for $889.99 currently. You could even spec it up to have 32GB which is non-upgradeable in either of these laptops, although it's an extra $150. If you can afford to trim the storage (maybe you have an external SSD and don't need as much internal storage space?) then the 8845HS + 32GB + 512GB + 2880x1800 OLED display spec is $920.

      Not sure why reviewers rush through products without properly reviewing them. This feature is on the white paper and it's always been touted as a prominent feature for an otherwise basic laptop series (literally states single-zone RGB on the features list).
      That said, this year's Vivobooks are finally really good laptops. The AMD version is the one worth waiting for, which should be on sale very shortly.

    Good review.
    A solid mid-range ultrabook, and for many mid-range is the way to go due to premium Windows machines now being close to double this in price (XPS 14, LG Gram 14, Galaxy Book4 Pro 14, Surface Laptop 6, etc).
    Glad you pointed out that these benchmark battery tests do not represent real life and I can understand why Windows OEMs like them being used as they do overplay the battery SOT. I usually discount by 33% but with the caveat that higher brightness can drain that time even further.
    Good bang for your bucks but I have seen the MB Air M2 13-inch for only a little bit more and if like me you use your ultrabook for casual work meaning 8GB/256GB is enought, then I would still choose the Mac. But there is a good reason Windows has a natural monopoly, the reluctance of people to move OS'es so in Windows-land the Vivobook S14 is shortlist material.

      I used to have an acer laptop and I contacted them for the max SSD limit and they said up to 2tb. I then bought a 4tb ssd and put it in and its working fine 2 years later.
      I think the up to amount is not the theoretical max but what they're willing to ship it with so you should be fine. Btw the 4tb is on a laptop with an 8th gen intel u series low power CPU so I think you should be fine.
      Did you get one with 32gb ram? That's what I'm interested in and whether its 3.2k oled at 120hz and then what you paid for this. Thanks in advance.
