ASUS, the Taiwanese tech giant, has launched two new laptops in India — the powerful, AI-driven Vivobook S16 (S3607QA) and the everyday-friendly Chromebook CX15 (CX1505KA). With these new additions, ASUS is pushing the boundaries of performance and practicality, offering Indian users devices that are both future-ready and value-conscious.
The Vivobook S16, ASUS’s next-level AI PC, is powered by Qualcomm’s new Snapdragon X processor and boasts a robust 45 TOPS NPU, making it ready for the Copilot+ experience right out of the box. It’s designed to bring together AI-enhanced performance, immersive visuals, and long battery life — all wrapped in a sleek metal body that’s easy to carry.
Meanwhile, the Chromebook CX15 offers a more accessible package with its sustainable design, durable construction, and lightweight form factor, perfect for students and everyday users looking for reliability without breaking the bank.
Smarter, Faster, and Built for the AI Era
The spotlight is on the Vivobook S16, and rightfully so. It’s ASUS’s boldest step yet into the AI computing space. With Copilot+ features like Live Captions, Windows Studio Effects, and built-in ASUS AI apps like StoryCube, the Vivobook delivers smart functionality that adapts to your workflow — not the other way around.
Whether you’re multitasking, editing media, attending meetings, or browsing the web, the combination of a high-efficiency Snapdragon X chip and powerful NPU makes everything run smoother and faster, without constant reliance on the cloud.
Light in Weight, Heavy on Features
One of the highlights of the Vivobook S16 is its unmatched portability. At just 1.74 kg and 1.59cm thin, the laptop manages to stay ultra-slim while packing in a massive 70WHr battery — offering up to 32 hours of unplugged usage. That’s more than a full day of productivity or binge-watching without reaching for the charger.
Features like ASUS IceCool Thermal Technology and custom Fan Profiles via the MyASUS app help keep the system cool under load, whether you’re at your desk or working remotely.
OLED Brilliance in Every Frame
If you’re someone who cares about visuals, the Vivobook doesn’t disappoint. It features a 16-inch FHD+ Lumina OLED display with a 95% DCI-P3 color gamut, deeper blacks, and an 89% screen-to-body ratio. The taller 16:10 aspect ratio offers more screen space for multitasking — ideal for creative professionals and media enthusiasts alike.
Security and Connectivity at the Forefront
The Vivobook S16 is packed with thoughtful features to keep you secure and productive. A Full-HD IR camera with Windows Hello support enables quick, secure logins, while a physical privacy shutter ensures peace of mind. For protection at the hardware level, ASUS includes the Microsoft Pluton chip and Passkeys support.
The laptop also comes with Microsoft Office Home 2024 (lifetime validity) and 1-year Microsoft 365 Basic with 100GB OneDrive cloud storage — offering solid value out of the box.
A Practical Chromebook for Everyday Needs
Launched alongside the Vivobook, the Chromebook CX15 (CX1505KA) is ASUS’s answer to users who need a lightweight, affordable, and secure laptop for school or work. Weighing just 1.59 kg, it’s built to handle basic tasks efficiently on ChromeOS, with enough I/O ports and visual clarity to get work done from just about anywhere.
The Chromebook also features US Military Grade-certified build quality, adding a layer of toughness rarely seen at this price point.
ASUS on the Future of Computing
“The launch of the Vivobook S16 marks another milestone in our journey to bring AI-driven innovation to India,” said Arnold Su, Vice President, Consumer and Gaming PC, ASUS India.
“As part of our Copilot+ lineup, it blends intelligent productivity, portability, and rich visuals into one package — perfect for students, professionals, and creators. And with ASUS’s own AI apps, it’s built to match the future of how we work and play.”
