ASUS Vivobook Pro 14 OLED review: Solid and snappy
Source: Speed Magazine
The ASUS Vivobook Pro 14 OLED proves that you don’t need a bulky gaming machine to get powerful performance. This ASUS laptop delivers a snappy experience with its RTX 3050 graphics and Ryzen 9 processor, and an immersive and enjoyable overall experience thanks to its OLED display. Priced at P74,995, the Vivobook Pro 14 OLED is a good buy and gives you a solid price-to-performance ratio.

ASUS VivoBook Pro 14 OLED Review Philippines: Affordable RTX Laptop
Source: Unbox
Our review of the VivoBook Pro 14 OLED in the Philippines shows that the top-end variant of the VivoBook series makes for a great laptop for creatives, especially with features like an RTX 3050 GPU and a Ryzen 9 processor. While the VivoBook Pro 14 OLED does have its fair share of compromises, there’s no questioning the fact that it has one of the best OLED displays for its price.

80% Asus Vivobook Pro 14 OLED Review: Snappy Performance And A Smooth Screen

Asus Vivobook Pro 14 OLED Review: Snappy Performance And A Smooth Screen Assuming this Vivobook stays at the price I’ve been given, it’s a great deal. It also seems like, as we said of the 13-inch MacBook Pro, a bit of a tweener. Realistically, I’m not sure how large the constituency is who’s looking for a processor this powerful with a discrete GPU but is also fine with just 16GB of RAM and 1TB of storage. The so-so battery life, given this device’s thin and light stature, may limit the audience further. I see this mostly as a device for people looking for a primary driver who want to game or edit on the side. This is a good affordable option for that crowd, but you’re also somewhat getting what you pay for — editors, or others with GPU-heavy workloads, who can afford to spend a bit more on the 14-inch MacBook Pro should absolutely do so, and gamers who can live without the OLED screen can get a more powerful GPU, more RAM, and much better battery life in the Zephyrus G14. But I’m still glad the package exists; 90Hz OLED screens are really a joy to use, and they’re a thing I hope we see more of at this accessible price point down the road.

The Asus Vivobook Pro 14 is a great option if you’re looking to mix business and pleasure. Not only will it perform well in day-to-day office work, with a big enough battery to get you through a workday without a charger, but the great sound quality and beautiful OLED display will also benefit you when you’re looking to relax and entertain yourself. Granted, the quality of the webcam could be better, and the bloatware definitely isn’t necessary. But overall this laptop offers a lot of great features at a reasonable price, and is well worth checking out if you’re in the market for a high-performance ultraportable with an OLED display. If you can’t find the Asus Vivobook Pro 14 or aren’t interested in its features, the Dell XPS 15 OLED is a pretty similar laptop with a more attractive design, though with Intel’s 11th Gen chips it can’t match the AMD-powered Vivobook’s performance or power efficiency.

Asus Vivobook Pro 14 OLED Review
Source: Reviewed.com
We think the Vivobook Pro 14 OLED makes sense for students and home users looking to balance portability, display size, and pricing. The OLED display is excellent by every measure and arguably the best you’ll find on any laptop sold for $1,199. We also enjoyed the responsive touchpad and crisp keyboard. However, the laptop’s performance is nowhere near what we expected given its specifications. Buyers hoping the Vivobook Pro 14 can keep pace with similar 15-inch laptops will be disappointed. Asus also misses on connectivity and the laptop’s design, though passable, fails to stand out. That means gamers and content creators should take a pass. The Dell XPS 15, Razer Blade 14, and MacBook Pro 16 are a bit larger and heavier, but improved performance is worth a minor step up in size. The Vivobook Pro 14 ultimately fails to live up to its professional badging. Thankfully, Asus says this laptop will be available sometime between October and December 2021 so you have time to decide.

86% Asus Vivobook Pro 14 OLED Review: Better Than M2 MacBook Air?
Source: Gadgetbyte Nepal
Okay, let’s wrap up this review of the Asus Vivobook Pro 14 OLED (M6400) now. So is this the perfect Windows alternative to the M2 MacBook Air? Maybe not a “perfect” alternative but it’s certainly a close one. Look, there are some things it does better than the MacBook; like the spectacular OLED display, extensive port selection, and all its gaming possibilities. So if you don’t want to switch to macOS (or can’t because of its limitations) and are looking to buy a capable 14” Ultrabook without spending too much, the Vivobook Pro is easily one of the best options out there. I’m certainly not gonna recommend it to content creators with a demanding workflow, but casual users who want a little bit of gaming and light editing can definitely consider this. And I think just how much you value an OLED display will also have a big say on whether the Vivobook Pro is going to be worth it to you or not. If you answered yes, then great. And if you answered no, then there are a few alternatives you can consider. The Lenovo Slim 7 Pro X, for example, brings a similar set of CPU and GPU. But with a touchscreen and up to 32GB memory option. Or, last year’s ROG Zephyrus G14 is another stunning 14” Ultrabook that is currently available at really attractive prices. Asus Vivobook Pro 14 OLED (M6400) combines portable build quality with a grand OLED display, powerful processors, and more. As such, this is a great choice for anyone who wants a capable Windows laptop that can also game a little on the side. Just don't expect it to outperform a dedicated gaming laptop or something because to cram all that power inside such a compact chassis, Asus has had to make some notable compromises in terms of performance here.

14.00:

14 inch display size represents a middle ground between the small subnotebook formats and the screens of the standard 15 inch laptops.

The reason for the popularity of mid-sized displays is that this size is reasonably easy on the eyes, provides good resolutions with usable detail sizes, yet does not consume too much power and the devices can still be reasonably compact. 

In the past, 14-inch devices were very rare, but now they are the standard for laptops after the 15-inchers.
