This laptop is a solid workhorse. Its 16 GB of RAM is sufficient for handling large numbers of documents as well as streaming video, movies, and TV shows. The backlit keyboard is comfortable, although it has some quirks. The design feels well-made, and the options for peripherals and data transfer are comprehensive. However, be aware that the 8 cores running at 3 GHz may limit performance for demanding tasks, and the integrated graphics will restrict gaming capabilities. The only clear downside I see with the ASUS Vivobook 16 X1607Q is its weak display. Everything else can be justified by either the battery life or the price point. This laptop is designed as an office or home workhorse.

The ASUS Vivobook S 16 OLED (S5606QA) positions itself as a forward-thinking Windows laptop built on Qualcomm’s next-gen Snapdragon X architecture. The Copilot+ PC is designed for students, professionals, and casual users who prioritize screen real estate and practical usability over flashy aesthetics, and those who want a balance of sleek design, silent operation, vibrant visuals, and AI-ready performance with exceptional battery efficiency. Overall, the ASUS Vivobook 16 (X1607QA) is a solid performer aimed at productivity-focused users seeking a large screen, reliable daily performance, and decent build – all without breaking the bank. While app compatibility is still catching up for some x64 softwares and AAA games, the laptop runs most productivity and entertainment tools without a hitch – and native ARM64 apps are lightning fast.

The ASUS Vivobook 16 X1607QA is a fascinating machine, but one that presents a very clear set of compromises. It wraps a surprisingly premium-feeling and robust chassis around a platform built for one thing above all else: efficiency. This is not an all-rounder; it’s a specialized tool for users whose priorities are firmly set on mobility, connectivity, and, most of all, unplugged longevity. For the right user, this Vivobook could be a dream come true, but for others, its significant drawbacks in key areas will be immediate deal-breakers. It’s a laptop of extremes that demands you know exactly what you need.

The ASUS Vivobook 16 is a solid choice in the budget laptop market, delivering great portability, battery life (10–14 hours), and performance for everyday tasks. Its Qualcomm Snapdragon X processor is efficient for office work and web browsing, complemented by a full-sized keyboard and good port selection. However, the display is less suitable for creative work, and performance struggles with heavy multitasking or gaming. Priced ₹59,990, it offers good value compared to x86 competitors. While not the top performer, its balance of efficiency and affordability makes it a strong option for students and casual users.

The ASUS Vivobook 16 X1607QA isn’t just another budget laptop — it represents a real shift in what users can expect from affordable Windows machines. Qualcomm’s Snapdragon X platform, previously confined to expensive flagships and tablets, now powers a laptop that costs less than many entry-level Intel and AMD-based systems. What ASUS has pulled off is genuinely impressive. They’ve taken the promise of ARM — exceptional efficiency, low heat, instant responsiveness — and made it accessible at a mass-market price point. For everyday users who live in browsers, documents, video calls, and light creative tools, this machine delivers an experience that feels premium, without the premium price tag. Performance is snappy, battery life is class-leading, and the thermals are so quiet and cool.

The Asus Vivobook 16 has its benefits and drawbacks, but I’ll start with the former list first. The entry-level ARM machine is ideal for folks who want to run the basic software or get most work done online without exhausting the battery quickly or without spending much on a new laptop. Its toughness ratings make it equally good for students, allowing them to be somewhat careless once in a while. Charging over USB-C is another advantage and lets you forget about carrying a separate charger always. The Vivobook 16 compromises on the productivity front, and is unsuitable for creative professionals, unless they treat it as a backup machine only. For a little extra, Asus itself has exciting options, such as the Asus Vivobook S15 or the Zenbook A14.

The Asus Vivobook 16 (2025) offers decent performance, long battery life, a smooth touchpad, and a big screen. I’m not the biggest fan of the Vivobook 16, but it is a solid Windows 11 laptop. The biggest issue I have with it right now is its price. The Acer Aspire 14 AI is cheaper and it offers a clicky keyboard and slightly longer battery life. However, if you really want a 16-inch budget laptop, the Vivobook 16 is a decent choice.

Wrapping up our Asus Vivobook 16 review this Snapdragon X unit is a future-proof proposition. This a thin, light, and durable laptop for a 16-inch machine, and it has decent performance on offer. But I think an example is the best way I can explain this laptop to the right kind of buyer. Let’s say you’re a parent who wants to buy your kid a laptop that can run all the necessary software and have just enough power to let them explore AI, then this is a good choice. If you’re a working professional who needs something with a big screen and a numpad, good choice for you too. However, if you’re someone who wants a laptop that can edit photos & videos, and allow you to play AAA games on it. Or if you’re willing to carry a heavy machine and always have a power socket around, you could sacrifice the Vivobook’s sensibility to go with a gaming laptop.

Comment
Qualcomm Adreno X1-45 1.7 TFLOPS: An integrated graphics adapter that the Snapdragon X Plus 8-core X1P-42-100 SoC features. Compared to the faster 3.8 TFLOPS and 4.6 TFLOPS X1-85 iGPUs, this one does not just run at lower clock speeds but also has fewer unified shaders at its disposal, with 768 being the most likely number. The underlying architecture is reportedly not much different from what was used in the Adreno 730. As for its gaming performance, it's only just sufficient for pre-2020 games at resolutions such as HD 720p on low graphics settings.
Modern games should be playable with these graphics cards at low settings and resolutions. Casual gamers may be happy with these cards.

The 8-core Snapdragon X chip features 8 Oryon CPU cores running at up to 2.98 GHz, along with the 1.7 TFLOPS X1-45 Adreno iGPU and the 45 TOPS Hexagon NPU. The super-fast LPDDR5x-8448 memory controller known to us from other Snapdragon X chips, USB 4.0 support, TB 4 support and PCIe 4 support are all onboard as well.» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Processsors.
