Chassis, connections, screen of the Asus VivoBook 15 S1502ZA-EJ1951W
It adopts a sober and elegant appearance with its thin and light Icelight Silver design.
This versatile laptop computer integrates correct connectivity with its USB-C, its Wi-Fi 5 ac and Bluetooth 5.1 wireless modules for wireless remote connections and communications, its audio port, its HDMI video output useful if the we want to easily connect it to a monitor or a TV for example but also its 3 USBs including 2 USB 3.0 (USB 2.0 compatible) guaranteeing transfers up to 10 times faster than USB 2.0 when connecting USB 3.0 devices.
The screen is suitable for Full HD content as well as videos because it has a 16:9 format.
Furthermore, its anti-reflective treatment makes it more readable than a shiny panel in a bright environment (e.g. outdoors) while its viewing angles and colorimetry are average, logically given its positioning.
Performance, battery life of the Asus VivoBook 15 S1502ZA-BQ331W
The Asus VivoBook 15 S1502ZA-BQ331W is an elegant, thin and light silver laptop designed for everyday versatile use on the go equipped with a powerful processor.
As it is relatively thin and light, this Ultrabook is easy to carry, which will interest some looking for a student laptop because its autonomy is around 7 hours on battery in light use.
However, this laptop PC delivers very good general performance since it relies on a good amount of 16 GB RAM coupled with an Intel Alder Lake Core i5-12500H processor with 12 hybrid cores.
This duo deploys its potential in software that consumes RAM and CPU resources and takes advantage of multi-core, such as photo editing or video editing.
Be careful, however, to often carry out heavy processing in this area, it is better to turn to a PC based on a more recent processor with a greater number of efficient cores.
Logically given its positioning, this laptop does not have a dedicated graphics card.
All graphics are therefore supported by the Iris Xe solution.
Thanks to the Iris
The storage is obviously entrusted to an SSD which is more robust than a hard drive but also consumes less energy, is silent and much faster.
The responsiveness and fluidity provided by the SSD are much better on a daily basis than with a hard drive.
Starting/stopping, carrying out processing, launching applications or even accessing online game cards is faster with an SSD than with a hard drive for example.
Here we find a 512 GB SSD like many laptops on the market, including many more expensive ones.
However, in the event that additional space is needed, fast transfers can be made to an external storage device, preferably USB 3.0/USB-C.
Finally, expect this Ultrabook to heat up and make itself heard when pushed hard (e.g. treatments).
If necessary, we can associate it with a ventilated support to limit its temperatures (remember to check the dimensions carefully!).
