ASUS VIVOBOOK PRO 15 OLED

Last year we looked at the ASUS Vivobook Pro 14 OLED, a great midrange laptop with a gorgeous display and powerful specs. Now we look at its older sibling, the slightly bigger and equally powerful ASUS Vivobook Pro 15 OLED.

DESIGN

When you take the ASUS Vivobook Pro 15 OLED out of its box, you immediately notice that it shares the same design with its smaller sibling, the ASUS Vivobook Pro 14 OLED. It has the same metallic black cover, the same ASUS Vivobook logo on the cover, and the same I/O ports layout. The only major difference is the bigger body, it being a 15.6-inch display laptop compared to the Vivobook Pro 14 OLED's 14-inch display.

Opening the laptop is where you'll find the most noticeable difference. The ASUS Vivobook Pro 15 OLED has a full-layout keyboard, meaning you have a physical number pad instead of the NumPad 2.0 found in the smaller model.

Going back to the display, the ASUS Vivobook Pro 15 OLED has a 15.6-inch OLED display with a 100% DCI-P3 color gamut. It also has a faster 120Hz refresh rate, which is excellent for those who want to game on the side. On top of the display is the FHD webcam with the physical cover/ shutter for extra security.

Like the 14-inch version, the Vivobook Pro 15 OLED has a lot of ports. On the left are two USB-A ports and the laptop's LED notification lights. On the right are the DC power, a USB Type-C with Power Delivery support, a microSD card reader, another USB-A port, a 3.5mm audio port, and the full-size HDMI port.

As the larger model, the ASUS Vivobook Pro 15 OLED is a bit heavier, weighing around 1.8kg. But surprisingly, it's a bit thinner, measuring 18.2mm thin.
