appearance, but also original thanks to its light silver design.
Multi-touch technology is featured on the display. As a result, you can interact with the system and software by simply gesturing/pressing at least one finger on it.
Due to its tactile aspect, the screen has a glossy treatment that gives punch to the colors but is prone to reflections in bright environments (e.g. outdoors).
The Full HD screen also adopts a 16:10 format displaying more elements in height than the classic standard 16:9.
When you need to better discern the keys, simply activate the backlight of the chiclet keyboard.
This one does not have a physical numeric keypad on the right, due to a lack of space like any model whose format is less than 15 inches.
On the other hand, those who regularly enter numbers will appreciate finding NumberPad technology here. Once activated, NumPad converts the touchpad into a touch keypad.
This 2-in-1 Ultrabook has good connectivity consisting of 1 USB-C Thunderbolt 4, Bluetooth 5.3 and Wi-Fi 6E ax modules to communicate and connect remotely wirelessly, a convenient HDMI video output to easily connect it to a TV or monitor for example, an audio port or 2 USBs including 1 USB 3.0 guaranteeing transfers up to 10 times faster than USB 2.0 if you connect a device USB 3.0.
Performance, battery life of the Asus VivoBook S 14 Flip TP3402VA-DRLZ450W
The Asus VivoBook S 14 Flip TP3402VA-DRLZ450W targets those who want to acquire a compact, elegant laptop that can be converted into a processor-performance tablet for versatile everyday nomadic use oriented towards multimedia.
Easy to carry because it is compact, thin and light, this hybrid Ultrabook will interest nomads such as some looking for a student laptop because it is able to last about 7 hours on battery in light use.
In addition to this interesting battery life, this 2-in-1 laptop offers a large storage capacity of 1000 GB thanks to its SSD on which you can install and store a lot of software and files, including personal creations.
The SSD provides much better fluidity and responsiveness on a daily basis than a hard drive, as well as a quieter operation that is more economical.
Thanks to the SSD, starting/stopping, processing, launching applications or even accessing online game maps is faster than with a hard drive.
Be careful, however, players will move on unless they just play light games. It is the Iris Xe graphics module inserted into the processor that takes care of all the graphics, enough to watch photos and videos.
The Iris Xe is housed in the Raptor Lake, an Intel Core i7-13700H processor with 14 hybrid cores coupled with 16 GB of RAM to provide good overall power to satisfy demanding users.
And especially the creatives. Because the multimedia processing carried out by this core is faster than if we were dealing with a classic Quad/Hexa Core and 8 GB DDR4/5. The difference is clearly noticeable under CPU and RAM intensive work that takes advantage of multi-cores, such as photo editing or video editing.
This versatile multimedia-oriented hybrid laptop that heats up and can be heard when pushed hard (e.g. treatments) can be coupled with a ventilated stand (remember to check the dimensions!) to limit its temperatures.
