Asus VivoBook S15 D533UA Review: Ryzen 7 all-rounder with good battery runtimes

Elegant. The VivoBook scores with a Ryzen 7-5700U APU, 16 GB of working memory (dual-channel mode) and good battery runtimes. The Vega 8 iGPU remains below its capabilities. The dark, low-contrast screen (FHD, IPS) is not convincing.

Asus offers the VivoBook S15 D533UA, a stylish, slim 15.6-inch all-rounder that is powered by a Ryzen APU. The device is familiar to us. A few months ago, we reviewed the VivoBook S15 S533EQ which is based on a Core i7-1165G7 CPU and a GeForce-MX350 GPU. The competitors include notebooks like the Samsung Galaxy Book NP750XDA the Honor MagicBook 15 the HP Pavilion 15, and the MSI Modern 15 A11M.

Case & equipment - VivoBook without Thunderbolt

Asus relies on a sleek, slim metal case for the S15, which is finished in a dark silver-gray. The back of the lid is available in four colors: Black, Red, Green, White - we have the black model. The S533 does not have any manufacturing flaws. Stability and stiffness are within reason. The lid's maximum opening angle is about 130 degrees. The battery is firmly installed. The innards can be accessed after removing the bottom shell.

The laptop has three USB-A ports (2x USB 2.0, 1x USB 3.2 Gen 1) and one USB-C port (USB 3.2 Gen 1). The latter does not support Power Delivery or Displayport via USB-C. Thus, only one video output is available with the HDMI port. The microSD memory card reader (reference card: AV PRO microSD 128 GB V60) is one of the slowest of its kind.

The WLAN chip (Intel AX200) supports the 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac/ax standards and offers Bluetooth 5 functionality. The data rates determined under optimal conditions (no other WLAN devices in the near vicinity, short distance between notebook and server PC; router: Netgear Nighthawk AX12) turn out very good.

Input devices - Asus computer offers key illumination

The keys of the illuminated chiclet keyboard offer a short travel and a clear pressure point. The key resistance could be crisper for our taste. The keyboard yields a bit during typing. It did not prove to be overly annoying. All in all, Asus delivers a keyboard that is suitable for everyday use.

The smooth surface of the multi-touch ClickPad (10.5 x 7.3 cm/~4.1 x 2.9 in) makes it easy for the fingers to glide. It also responds to inputs in the corners. The pad has a short stroke and a clear pressure point.

Brightness (266.8 cd/m²) and contrast (516:1) of the matte 15.6-inch screen (1,920 x 1,080 pixels) do not trigger enthusiasm. We consider values beyond 300 cd/m² or 1,000:1 as good. PWM flickering could not be detected.

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
19 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined↗ 10 ms rise
↘ 9 ms fall
The screen shows good response rates in our tests, but may be too slow for competitive gamers.
In comparison, all tested devices range from 0.1 (minimum) to 240 (maximum) ms. » 36 % 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
18 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined↗ 8 ms rise
↘ 10 ms fall
The screen shows good response rates in our tests, but may be too slow for competitive gamers.
In comparison, all tested devices range from 0.2 (minimum) to 636 (maximum) ms. » 26 % 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.

The screen shows a very decent color reproduction in its state of delivery, but misses the target with a color deviation of almost 4 (DeltaE less than 3). It does not suffer from a blue cast. The display cannot reproduce the AdobeRGB (45%), sRGB (65%) and DCI-P3 (44%) color spaces.

Performance - Ryzen 7 Power

Asus' VivoBook S15 D533UA is a 15.6-inch all-rounder that provides enough performance for office and Internet applications as well as simple computer games.

Test conditions

The notebook has three energy profiles ("Power Mode", "Balanced Mode", "Whisper Mode"), which can be switched between via the key combination "Fn" + "F". We used the profile "Balanced Mode". We also ran some benchmarks with the "Performance Mode" profile active. The results can be found in the comparison diagrams.

Power Mode Balanced Mode Fan Mode
Power Limit 1 35 Watt 28 Watt 20 Watt
Power Limit 2 35 watts 35 watts 35 watts

Processor

The CPU part of the Ryzen-7-5700U-APU (Lucienne) consists of an eight-core processor that operates with a base speed of 1.8 GHz. An increase up to 4.35 GHz is possible via Turbo. Simultaneous multithreading (two threads can be processed per core) is supported.

The multi-thread test of the Cinebench R15 benchmark is processed with 3.5 GHz for a short time, then the clock drops to 3.1 GHz. The single-thread test is run with 1.4 to 4.35 GHz. In battery mode, the CPU runs at 3.1 GHz (multi-thread) or 1.1 to 4.35 GHz (single-thread).

We check whether the CPU Turbo is used permanently in mains operation by running the multi-thread test of the Cinebench R15 benchmark in a loop for at least 30 minutes. The Turbo is used on medium level. The "Performance Mode" profile causes the clock to increase slightly.

The CPU delivers a high level of multi-thread performance, but falls short of its capabilities due to a Turbo clock on a medium level.

Graphics card

The Vega-8 graphics core supports DirectX 12 and reaches speeds of up to 1,900 MHz. The maximum can be maintained permanently, as the Witcher 3 test shows. The 3DMark results are below average compared to the Vega-8 notebooks we have tested so far. We attribute this to the installed working memory. Since the latter is soldered, there is no potential for improvement.

Gaming performance

The Ryzen APU smoothly brings many of the games in our database to the screen. Most titles are playable at HD resolution (1,280 x 720 pixels) and low to medium quality levels. Games with moderate hardware requirements allow more. Some current games can also be played.

The same behavior as in the 3DMark benchmarks is seen: The working memory slows down the GPU a bit. As a result, it delivers some of the lowest frame rates we have measured so far with the Vega-8 graphics core.

Emissions & Energy Management - Asus Laptop with good battery life

Noise emissions

The device usually does not make a sound when idling and under low load - the fan is inactive. This is over under medium to high load. In both cases, we register a maximum sound pressure level of 45 dB(A). For a lower noise level, we would have to use the energy profile "Whisper mode" - at the expense of computing power.

Temperature

The VivoBook in the stress test.
The VivoBook in the stress test.

Our stress test (Prime95 and FurMark run for at least one hour) runs the CPU and GPU at 3.1 GHz and approximately 1,050 MHz, respectively. The stress test represents an extreme scenario. We use this test to check whether the system runs stably even under full load.

The Asus computer heats up noticeably, but not excessively. Temperatures in the lower to mid 40 degrees Celsius (104 degrees Fahrenheit) range are registered at some measuring points during the stress test. In everyday use, the rates are in the green zone.

Asus sends a chic, slim 15.6-inch all-rounder into the race for buyers' favor with the VivoBook S15, which has a very low power consumption thanks to its Ryzen-7-5700U APU with a high degree of multi-thread performance. It clearly leaves the Intel-based competition behind. The single-thread performance is the other way around.

The screen is not appropriate for the chic VivoBook S15.

Office and Internet applications as well as simple computer games do not pose a big challenge for the APU. However: The working memory (16 GB, dual-channel mode, onboard) slows down the Vega-8 iGPU a bit. It cannot be changed since the memory cannot be swapped - at least not easily.

Heat and noise development under load should be lower. The screen (FHD, IPS) is disappointing overall. Although it offers stable viewing angles, a matte surface and decent color reproduction, brightness, contrast and color space coverage are too low. An 800 Euro (~$945) notebook has to offer much more here.

The laptop's good battery runtimes support the flagship well. With a WLAN runtime of just under 9 hours, you should be able to get through the day without a power adapter. Unfortunately, the notebook cannot be powered via USB-C since the available slot (USB 3.2 Gen 1) does not support Power Delivery. The last tested Intel sister model offers this option thanks to a Thunderbolt 4 slot.

To prevent misunderstandings: The laptop is called Asus VivoBook S15 D533UA.However, the corresponding model number is S533UA-BQ048T.

Price and availability

The Asus VivoBook S15 D533UA is currently available in our tested configuration S533UA-BQ048T (Ryzen 7 5700U, 16 GB RAM, 1 TB SSD, Windows 10 Home) at a price of 829 Euros (~$979) at Cyberport.de.
