Create faster

PERFORMANCE
Vivobook 16X has the power to turn your ideas into creations faster than ever, thanks to its super-powerful 12th Gen Intel Core H-series processor and NVIDIA® GeForce RTX™ 2050 Laptop GPU. These are supported by a 512 SSD, 16 GB DDR4 memory and ultrafast WiFi 6E7 — the perfect high-performance choices for this stylish powerhouse!

Blitz the toughest tasks

Blitz the toughest tasks

CPU
With the 12th Gen Intel Core i5 processor, there’s more than enough performance to handle the toughest projects – even when you’re working on several at the same time! And if you need a quick speed boost, Performance mode can ramp up the power to a peak 50 W thermal design power (TDP).

Your powerful creative companion

Your powerful creative companion

GPU
Vivobook 16X has everything a creator needs, including a top-notch NVIDIA GeForce RTX™ 2050 GPU that’s based on the latest NVIDIA Ada Lovelace architecture. Whether you’re just starting out on your creative journey, or need to tackle pro-level rendering or livestreaming, you’ll nail it thanks to the advanced GPU features like ray tracing, AI acceleration and speedy GDDR6 memory. And for maximum performance and stability, Vivobook 16X comes with the exclusive free NVIDIA Studio drivers1.

Stay cool

THERMAL
To keep your laptop cool in all situations, the ASUS IceCool thermal technology in Vivobook 16X uses upgraded 8 mm, 6mm and 4 mm heat pipes*, and an IceBlade fan that efficiently accelerates heat transfer. The 87-blade fan and impeller are made of a liquid-crystal polymer that means they’re lighter and thinner than ordinary fans. The end result is that the Intel Core CPU and NVIDIA GPU can run comfortably at up to a blistering 70 W combined TDP4 in Performance mode — with no throttling!
* Actual number of heat pipes may vary according to device configuration.

DISPLAY
Vivobook 16X provides a stunning visual experience with incredible detail and ultravivid colours from its WUXGA 120 Hz*2 panel, which has a 16:10 aspect ratio to give you more space to work on screen.

World-leading motion clarity with up to 120 Hz

World-leading motion clarity with up to 120 Hz

Premium ASUS OLED displays with 120 Hz refresh rate and 0.2 ms pixel response time are incredibly smooth and clear. In fact, the 120 Hz / 0.2 ms OLED display is faster than a 165 Hz / 3 ms LCD IPS display — because it reduces ghosting to an indiscernible level. Simply put, this means even fast-moving visuals are smoother and clearer than ever.

USER EXPERIENCE
We go the extra mile to give you a more effortless and joyful experience, at work or play.

ASUS ErgoSense keyboard, comfortable typing experience

Your comfort is our highest priority. That’s why the ASUS ErgoSense keyboard has an incredibly satisfying feel, with the optimum key bounce and travel calculated with fine-tuned precision. Experience the ErgoSense keyboard and you’ll soon find yourself cruising effortlessly through your work.

Full-sized key pitch 19.05 mm

Full-sized key pitch 19.05 mm

The full-size 19.05 mm key pitch is the same as a desktop keyboard so you can whizz through your work with superb typing comfort and accuracy.

Dished key caps 0.2 mm

Dished key caps 0.2 mm

The 0.2 mm key-cap dish is designed to match the shape of your fingertips so your fingers are gently guided to the ideal contact point with the keys.

Long key travel 1.4 mm

Long key travel 1.4 mm

The long 1.4 mm key travel lets you type without having to use too much force. And the special ASUS-designed rubber dome guarantees your click force is met with just the right tactile bump you need for a nice grip.

0.1 mm key cap relief

0.1 mm key cap relief

When fully depressed, the keys on the ErgoSense keyboard don’t sink below the level of the keyboard deck. The key caps remain at least 0.1 mm above the chassis surface, providing you with a comfortable, ergonomic typing experience.

Optimal click ratio: Engineered to perfection

The feel of a keyboard depends on the crucial ratio between the peak force (also known as the actuation force) and the contact force. Peak force occurs when you press down on the key and reach the maximum force that the key’s underlying rubber dome can withstand without deflecting. Contact force occurs when the bottom of the key touches the circuit board to trigger an electronic signal, which in turn generates the action appropriate to the key. To achieve the most natural feel for a keyboard, ASUS keyboard experts have scientifically determined that the optimal ergonomic click ratio for a key is between 45-60%. These forces are precisely measured and tuned using the ASUS-designed rubber domes beneath the keys.
