Its cooling is provided by 2 fans (87 thin blades of 0.2mm in crystal-liquid polymer) and air vents. It offers 3 predefined operating modes: Performance (power), Balanced (balanced) and Whisper (silent, economical).
In terms of connectivity, this versatile Ultrabook is well equipped. There are 1 USB-C, Wi-Fi ac and Bluetooth 4.2 modules for wireless remote connections and communications, an audio port, a convenient HDMI video output to easily connect this computer to a TV or monitor for example but also 3 USB all compatible USB 2.0 and USB 3.0, USB 3.0 guaranteeing transfers made up to 10 times faster than USB 2.0 if you plug in a USB 3.0 device.
You can backlight the keys of the chiclet keyboard to better discern them in case of reduced ambient light, which is appreciable. A touch of originality, the Enter key is cropped from yellow.
The screen lends itself well to the display of High Definition content such as videos because of its precise Full HD definition and its 16/9th format. As it adopts IPS technology, the screen benefits from significant vertical and horizontal viewing angles. On the other hand, its colorimetry is average, below that of more high-end IPS panels.

Performance, battery life of the Asus VivoBook S15 S533EA-BQ2787W
The Asus VivoBook S15 S533EA-BQ2787W is a thin and light 15-inch High Definition laptop for versatile everyday mobile use.
Many users will be satisfied with the overall performance delivered by this thin and light laptop as it incorporates 8GB of RAM coupled with a low-power Intel Tiger Lake Quad Core i5-1135G7.
In addition, the latter houses within it the Intel Iris Xe,graphics solution whose performance is clearly superior to that of the classic Intel UHD 620.
In practice thanks to the Iris Xe, you can watch photos and videos but also run games that are not too demanding in 3D resources.
However, if we plan to often perform work heavy in processor and / or graphics resources, we benefit from opting instead for a PC based on a non-low-power processor and / or a dedicated graphics card adapted.
As for storage, there is a silent SSD but also less energy consuming than a hard disk, more robust and much faster.
Concretely, the SSD ensures a much better fluidity and responsiveness on a daily basis than a simple hard disk. Thanks to the SSD, we benefit from much faster processing, start/stop and application launches, or a faster arrival on the cards of online games.
With its 512 GB, the SSD offers a capacity similar to the standard among hard drives. However, in the event that you need more space, you can rely on an external storage unit such as a USB-C/USB 3.0 device to benefit from fast transfers.
As for the autonomy, bet on about 6 hours of operation on battery in light use for this versatile Ultrabook whose contained weight and finesse facilitate transport.
