Asus VivoBook Pro 16 review: A multimedia laptop with a Core i7, RTX 3050 Ti and DCI-P3

Triple A. The VivoBook doesn't exactly come with the newest hardware (Alder Lake, Ampere), but it does score points for other reasons: The Asus laptop has a bright 16-inch screen (2,560 x 1,600 pixels) in 16:10 format which has a high refresh rate (120 Hz) and great color space coverage (DCI-P3).

The Asus VivoBook is a portable 16-inch laptop for gamers and creative workers. The laptop comes with fitting hardware: A Core i7-12700HGeForce RTX 3050 Ti and a bright IPS display in 16:10 format which has great color accuracy. This laptop is similar to the VivoBook Pro 16X which we previously tested - but they are not built identically. Competitors to this laptop include the Dell Inspiron 16 Plus 7620, the XMG Fusion 15 (Mid 22) and the Acer Swift X 16.

Case & features - The VivoBook with Thunderbolt 4

The VivoBook is dark blue (Quiet Blue) in color and has smooth, matte surfaces. Its base unit (plastic) and lid (aluminum back) can be twisted a little too easily. The maximum angle at which you can open the lid measures 180 degrees. The battery (screwed in, not glued on) as well as the rest of the laptop's innards can be accessed once you have removed the bottom of the case.

The device has two USB-A ports (USB 3.2 Gen 1) as well as two USB-C ports (1x Thunderbolt 4, 1x USB 3.2 Gen 2). The latter support power delivery and the TB4 port can also output a DisplayPort signal. In total, there are two video outputs (1x DP, 1x HDMI). The SD card reader (reference card: AV PRO microSD 128 GB V60) delivers about average speeds. A positive: The webcam (2.1 MP, max. 1,920 x 1,080 pixels) has a mechanical cover. 

Under optimal conditions (no WiFi devices in close vicinity, short distance between laptop and server PC), you can achieve great WiFi data rates. The laptop uses a WiFi 6E chip (Mediatek MT7922). Wired connections are taken care of by a Realtek chip (RTL 816878111; 1 GBit/s).

Input devices - The Asus computer with an illuminated keyboard

The chiclet keyboard's keys (partially curved and with three lighting modes) have a medium-level lift and a clear pressure point. They have nice levels of resistance - but they could feel a little crisper. The keyboard has a slight give when you are typing - this isn't really anything negative. All-in-all, the Asus laptop's keyboard is fine for everyday use.

A click pad (13 x 8.5 cm) replaces the need for a mouse and its smooth surface means your fingers glide over it comfortably. It reacts to inputs all the way to the edges, has a minimal lift and a clear pressure point.

* ... smaller is better

The screen's X Rite Pantone certification means it has a very natural color depiction: With deviations of around 1.8, it delivers acceptable results (DeltaE < 3) straight out of the box. Calibrating it leads to a smaller deviation of 1.3 and more balanced gray tones. Color accuracy is no problem: The panel can depict the entire DCI P3 color space and 86 per cent of the Adobe RGB space.

Display Response Times

Display response times show how fast the screen is able to change from one color to the next. Slow response times can lead to afterimages and can cause moving objects to appear blurry (ghosting). Gamers of fast-paced 3D titles should pay special attention to fast response times.
       Response Time Black to White
8 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined↗ 1 ms rise
↘ 7 ms fall
The screen shows fast response rates in our tests and should be suited for gaming.
In comparison, all tested devices range from 0.1 (minimum) to 240 (maximum) ms. » 16 % of all devices are better.
This means that the measured response time is better than the average of all tested devices (21.6 ms).
       Response Time 50% Grey to 80% Grey
2 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined↗ 1 ms rise
↘ 1 ms fall
The screen shows very fast response rates in our tests and should be very well suited for fast-paced gaming.
In comparison, all tested devices range from 0.2 (minimum) to 636 (maximum) ms. » 5 % of all devices are better.
This means that the measured response time is better than the average of all tested devices (33.9 ms).

Screen Flickering / PWM (Pulse-Width Modulation)

To dim the screen, some notebooks will simply cycle the backlight on and off in rapid succession - a method called Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) . This cycling frequency should ideally be undetectable to the human eye. If said frequency is too low, users with sensitive eyes may experience strain or headaches or even notice the flickering altogether.
Screen flickering / PWM not detected

In comparison: 53 % of all tested devices do not use PWM to dim the display. If PWM was detected, an average of 18110 (minimum: 5 - maximum: 3846000) Hz was measured.

Its viewing angle stable IPS panel can easily be read from any angle. Outdoors, the display generally remains legible as long as the sun isn't shining too strongly.

Performance - Alder Lake and Ampere

The VivoBook Pro 16 series consists of 5 model ranges (see model number) which are based on varying CPU and GPU generations. The present K6602ZE model uses Alder Lake CPUs and a GeForce-RTX-3050-T GPU. Our test device's MRSP is $1,247. Other variants were not available at the time of testing.

Testing conditions

You can switch between three manufacturer-specific cooling modes (see table) using the key combination "Fn" + "F". We used "standard mode" (benchmarks) and "whisper mode" (battery test).

Performance mode Standard mode Whisper mode
Power Limit 1 (HWInfo) 80 watts 50 watts 28 watts
Power Limit 2 (HWInfo) 120 watts 120 watts 120 watts
TGP (Witcher 3) 65 watts 50 watts 25 watts

Processor

The laptop's Core-i7-12700H processor (Alder Lake) consists of 6 performance cores (hyper threading, 2.4 - 4.7 GHz) and 8 efficiency cores (no hyper threading, 1.8 - 3.5 GHz). In total, this adds up to 20 logical CPU cores.

We measured the best benchmark results using activated "performance mode" - although, the distance to "standard mode" was minimal. In any way, these values lay below the CPU's average. In battery mode, its single-thread performance (127 points) was reduced to a greater extent than its multi-thread performance (1,695 points).

The CB15 loop test showed: Continuous multi-thread load led the turbo clock rate to drop from the first to the fourth run. Subsequently, the rates stayed constant. Using "performance mode" led to no performance improvement.

System performance

Its smoothly running system masters gaming, streaming and rendering. One part of its processing power lay idle, as the RAM (16 GB, DDR4-3200, onboard) only runs in single-channel mode. Installing a memory module (= dual-channel mode active) would solve this issue - and it would also boost its data rates to similar levels compared to its competitors with the same storage.

Graphics card

Our benchmarks and game tests revealed the GeForce RTX 3050 Ti Laptop GPU's (TGP: 65 watts) performance rates to fall just under the GPU's average ("standard mode"). Using "performance mode" led to 10 to 15 per cent higher rates - according to the Witcher 3 test, the TGP was exhausted. Using dGPU mode (via the MyAsus app) led to no improvement in performance. 

The computer allows for FHD gaming using low to high settings and HD gaming using low to medium settings (whisper mode). The latter lowered the TGP to 25 watts, which resulted in lower noise emissions.

Emissions & power - The Asus computer is noisy

Noise emissions

In idle mode as well as in everyday use (office, internet), the laptop generally works quietly - even silently at times. At full load, we measured noise emissions up to 61.5 dB(A) ("performance mode") - much too high. Using "standard mode" led to a more balanced noise-to-performance ratio - even so, the cooler made quite a racket. 

"Whisper mode" will probably be most users' first choice - it does exactly what it says on the tin. The fans run at low speeds even at load and are barely audible - at the expense of processing power. Gaming is still possible, but only in HD.

Temperature

The VivoBook during the stress test.
The VivoBook during the stress test.

At load, the laptop did reach quite high temperatures but on average its temperatures reached moderate levels. This means that we measured a maximum of 55.5 °C during our stress test. In everyday use, however, temperates generally find themselves within an acceptable range. 

The stress test (Prime95 and Furmark in continuous use) simulates an extreme scenario in order to test how stable the system remains at full load. The CPU began the stress test with average clock rates (P: 3.2 - 3.3 GHz; E: 2.7 GHz) and the graphics core had a rate of 1.1 - 1.4 GHz. While the CPU rates sank over the course of the test, the GPU clock rates rose by a little bit.

Battery life

The 16-inch laptop managed a runtime of 7:14 h in our practical WLAN test (mapping of the load when calling up websites via a script) - a decent, but not terrific value. Within the comparison field, the VivoBook takes the last place.

Video and photo editing, streaming, rendering and gaming: These all belong to the VivoBook Pro 16's core strengths. Its Core 7-12700H and GeForce RTX 3050 Ti Laptop deliver all the necessary power - both components consistently run with high clock rates. Although, it isn't quite used to its full potential, as the RAM only runs in single-channel mode. 

Asus' VivoBook Pro 16 is a laptop fit for gamers and creators who don't place too much importance on having the newest hardware.

The laptop only heats up a little at load, but it can get very loud - or too loud, even. A positive: The device offers a whisper mode which can lower the noise emissions the laptop produces at the expense of its performance - which can at least allow for a little more relaxed working.

Its compact build, relatively small weight (1.9 kg) and decent runtimes (WLAN: 7:15 h) make the VivoBook quite a mobile device. A positive: The battery can be charged using a USB-C power supply (min. 65 watts, 20 V) - both USB-C ports support power delivery. You don't have to continue using the proprietary power supply included. 

Our test sample doesn't have an OLED screen, but it is generally available within the VivoBook Pro 16 series. You shouldn't miss it: The installed IPS screen (16 inches, 2,560 x 1,600 pixels) in 16:10 format impresses with its brightness, good contrast, stable viewing angles, short reaction times, great color depiction and excellent color space coverage. 

 Alternatively, you could take a look at the Dell Inspiron 16 Plus 7620: With comparable performance, it offers considerably better runtimes. A budget-friendly alternative is the Acer Swift X 16, which delivers lower graphics performance - but it can offer very good runtimes and a price of around $1,000.

Price and availability

The version of the Asus VivoBook Pro 16 which we tested can be purchased on Amazon for $1,247.
