ASUS today has officially announced the new VivoBook S series. The ultra-portable laptop now comes with the innovative ScreenPad 2.0 which was first introduced last year in the ZenBook Pro 15.

The VivoBook series has a cheerful spirit to it and that goes without saying, it will come in five unconventional colour finishes that appeal to the younger user group. The colours include Moss Green, Punk Pink, Cobalt Blue, Transparent Silver, and Gun Metal. Besides, the metal chassis still retains the unique ErgoLift hinge design for comfortable typing experience.

The 5.65-inch ScreenPad has a FullHD+ (2160 x 1080) resolution and it utilises a Super IPS display panel. It is powered by the new ScreenXpert software which includes a slew of handy utilities to boost productivity. Quick Key enables one-tap automation of complex keyboard sequences, Handwriting for natural text input, and Number Key for rapid data entry. The user interface has been improved to resemble a smartphone’s interface for more intuitive user experience.

ASUS is also offering a secondary choice for users who are not so keen to switch away from the standard precision trackpads.
