Biometric authentication is possible by facial recognition via the Infrared functionality of the webcam and Windows Hello.

Those most concerned about their privacy will appreciate being able to close the webcam when not in use thanks to a privacy shutter.

When you need to better discern the keys, simply activate the backlighting of the chiclet keyboard.

An advantage of this configuration, the screen offers DCI-P3 colorimetric accuracy well above average associated with great black depth, significant vertical and horizontal viewing angles as well as minimal latency due to OLED technology. This involves a glossy coating which gives punch to the colors but is subject to reflections in a bright environment (e.g. outdoors).
The screen is adorned with 2.8K High Definition superior to Full HD, coupled with a 16/10th format higher than the classic 16/9th to display more information.

Performance, autonomy of the Asus Vivobook S 14 OLED M5406WA-PP068X

The Asus Vivobook S 14 OLED M5406WA-PP068X may be of interest to those who wish to equip themselves with a high-performance, multimedia and AI-oriented High Definition High Fidelity nomadic laptop equipped with recent components.

As it can last around 14 hours on battery in light use, it will delight nomads like some looking for a Student laptop. Because as a bonus it is as easy to transport as an Ultrabook since it is compact, thin and light.

Despite everything, this laptop provides solid general performance that will delight a maximum of users, particularly creators.

Because it is built around a good amount of above-average 24 GB RAM as well as an AMD Ryzen AI 9 365 processor. Strix Point with 10 hybrid cores, AI capabilities and integrated Radeon 880M graphics solution.

These components reveal their potential in areas requiring RAM and CPU resources that take advantage of multi-core (and AI), such as photo editing or video editing. In particular, we obtain faster processing here than with a classic Quad/Hexa Core and 16 GB DDR4/5.

Processing is accelerated by SSD storage and is therefore fast, like starts/stops and application launches.

More generally, the SSD clearly improves responsiveness and fluidity on a daily basis.
Because an SSD offers high speed, in addition to silent operation, a robust design and low energy consumption.

A 1 TB SSD is integrated here, a significant capacity for installing and storing multiple software and files, including why not a personal production.

As no dedicated graphics card is on board, players will move on… unless they are content to play light to modest games thanks to the benefits of the Radeon 880M solution inserted in the Ryzen AI 9 365.
But concessions are necessary to obtain good gameplay, such as a reduction in screen definition.
Because in 2.8K a greater number of calculations are necessary than in Full HD which implies a lower number of fps.

When it is heavily used (e.g. treatments), this multimedia and AI-oriented laptop PC heats up. Fortunately the noise it generates in these conditions is contained.
If necessary, we can add to this computer a ventilated support to limit its temperatures (remember to check the dimensions carefully!).
