Aerodynamic IceBlades for faster cooling
Each model of the new Vivobook series offers excellent heat dissipation through two updated heat pipes and a new IceBlades fan. The fan and impeller are made from liquid crystal polymer, making them lighter and thinner than in a typical setup. Each IceBlade blade has a three-dimensional, curved, aerodynamic design for better airflow and lower noise levels. The IceBlades fans use a hydrodynamic bearing that is quieter and produces less vibration compared to a conventional one.
Effortless Viewing Experience
Take care of your eyes with the help of the crystal-clear NanoEdge thin-bezel display of the Vivobook 15 (with an optional touch screen). With a wide viewing angle and low blue light emissions certified by TÜV Rheinland, it reduces eye fatigue even after extended periods of laptop use.

I have had it for about a month, and I believe I have a complete opinion about the product. I mainly use it for DJing but also for browsing school tasks, etc.
Positives:
- The battery is quite good, although in the first few days it scared me because it had a very short duration, but it improved significantly after the first week.
- It stays very cool, rarely does the fan work at full speed, and this only happens under heavy load.
- It is quite fast for browsing and simple tasks, but I would like to mention more about this below because I have some concerns about it.
- The screen is a normal IPS, although the difference in colors compared to an OLED will be noticeable, it does its job decently and has good brightness.
Negatives:
- It does not have a backlit keyboard, which is very bad if there is no lighting in the room at all.
- The ports are very stiff. I don't know if this is a negative, but it is a bit difficult to connect a USB device.
And the last and most important issue I have with the laptop, which concerns me and none of the above, is its optimization. I have noticed many bugs, the main one being that it often freezes and does not produce sound, requiring a restart every time. I also tried to download Euro Truck Simulator 2, as I know it is a lightweight game, and I hoped that with such a processor (12 cores and 16 threads), and of course 16GB of RAM and an NVMe SSD, it would at least run on medium settings. Of course, I'm not saying that the laptop is intended for gaming, but its specs are not negligible. And that's where I was disappointed. Even on medium settings with shadows off, the game would drop to 30 FPS every 2 minutes for a few seconds and then recover. And this would repeat. Something needs to be done about this issue; it is not acceptable for low-range PCs to work better than this in many things, even in browsing. Its specs are too powerful for the results the user gets. It seems that they have not bothered to make it work properly.
