MicroSD can be used in some cases, often through an adapter, but it’s not ideal.ģDMark Time Spy, a synthetic 3D benchmark, is harder to interpret. Full-sized SD cards are far more common among professional photographers and videographers.
#REVIEW SOFTWARE PRO WORLD PORTABLE#
Technically, the USB ports could be used to connect a portable monitor, but I doubt that’s what most owners have in mind. You’ll have to make do with one external monitor as well because the HDMI port is the only dedicated video out. The USB-C ports will function, but the video port won’t and you’ll still need to connect it to its power adapter even if the hub supports power delivery.
Most USB-C docks won’t work properly, either. The Vivobook won’t be able to connect with monitors over USB-C. There’s one USB-C 3.2 Gen 1 port, but it lacks DisplayPort alternate mode or Power Delivery.
The laptop also has a full-sized HDMI port and a Micro SD card reader. Two are USB 2.0 while the third is USB 3.2 Gen 1. ConnectivityĬonnectivity, or lack of it, is the Asus Vivobook Pro 15 OLED’s most serious flaw.
#REVIEW SOFTWARE PRO WORLD PASSWORD#
I often had to log in using a password after the fingerprint sensor failed. Asus instead includes a fingerprint sensor in the power button, but it’s unreliable. The webcam lacks an IR sensor, so Windows Hello facial recognition isn’t supported. Instead, Asus hopes to pack so much power for so little cash that you’ll happily overlook a few nitpicks. That undercuts high-end alternatives from Dell and HP by about $500 (with optional OLED panels equipped). The gap makes it obvious Asus isn’t trying to beat premium laptops on design or build quality. Asus offers all the above for just $1,099. Connectivity: 1x USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A, 1x USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-C (data only), 2x USB 2.0 Type-A, 1x HDMI 1.4, 1x 3.5mm combo audio, 1x DC-in barrel plugīut don’t forget the price.Graphics/GPU: Nvidia GeForce RTX 3050 (4GB GDDR6).Dell’s XPS 15 and HP’s Envy 15 offer Nvidia’s RTX 3050 Ti graphics as well as more RAM and storage. This isn’t leading-edge of a 15-inch laptop. Asus Vivobook Pro 15 OLED specsĪsus’ Vivobook Pro 15 OLED packs an AMD Ryzen 7 5800H eight-core processor, Nvidia GeForce RTX 3050 graphics, 16GB of RAM, and 512GB of storage.
