Asus is one of the few laptop brands that isn’t afraid of experimenting. They brought innovative dual-display laptops and even some with detachable screens. It now brings comfort to creators with the all-new Asus Vivobook 14X Creator Edition. Creators have depended on bulky gaming laptops for their work, which were hard to carry and with unintended features. Gaming laptops sport higher refresh displays over colour accuracy, which isn’t ideal for content creation.
The Vivobook 14X Creators Edition (KM541WS) changes this all with its creator-centric specifications. It is an NVIDIA Studio-certified laptop meeting high-end hardware requirements which could significantly speed up your workflow. What are these?
The Asus Vivobook 14X Creators Edition’s configuration makes it one of the most powerful laptops. It runs an Intel Core i9-13900H CPU offering a max speed of 5.4 GHz. That is a lot of power. This is one of Intel’s latest and most powerful CPUs, clubbed with NVIDIA’s GeForce RTX 3050 GPU. This combination makes the device ideal for creators wanting to run Adobe Photoshop, Premiere Pro, After Effects and 3D modelling tools like Blender. Creator tools are also often memory intensive, and to tackle this, the 14X comes with 16GB of RAM. Asus has also provided an additional DDR4 RAM slot, so you can upgrade the memory as needed. This feature is hard to find these days as most slim laptops come with soldiered and non-upgradable memory. For storage, the device comes with 1 TB of PCIe 4.0 storage.
The internals are kept with Asus’ IceCool Thermal technology. Asus says the upgraded 8 mm and 6 mm heat pipes accelerate heat transfer, allowing the CPU and GPU to run in the performance mode without any throttling. The laptop comes with a 63Wh battery and Asus says you can get 0 to 60 per cent charge in just 49 minutes. The laptop runs on Windows 11 and comes installed with the MyAsus app that helps you maintain your system, update software, and optimise your laptop’s performance. You can also use this app to change the display’s colour profile and easily transfer files between your PC and smartphone.
The laptop comes with a 14-inch OLED display running a 2.8K (2880×1800) resolution. It is a Pantone Validated display with 100 per cent DCI-P3 colour Gamut. This combination makes this laptop perfect for using colour correction tasks, in applications such as Adobe Lightroom or Premier Pro. The display also comes with a 90 Hz refresh rate panel so everything appears fluid. This should make things easier while gliding through video timelines. The display has TUV Rheinland certification for low blue light and flicker-free operation. This ensures less strain on your eyes during long viewing sessions.
The Asus Vivobook 14X Creator Edition (KM541WS) sports subtle styling. It looks like an everyday professional laptop and comes in Indie Black and Cool Silver colours. Despite its metallic lid, the laptop weighs only 1.4kg, so you can carry it around easily. The laptop also promised solid durability with its MIL-STD 810H certification. This means the device can easily take on occasional bumps without any worries. Asus says the laptop comes applied with Antimicrobial Technology that prevents the growth of bacteria for at least three years.
The device has a backlit chiclet keyboard with the keys offering 1.4 mm of key travel. The touchpad on the device is also large, so you can glide through webpages, images and long timelines with minimal swipes. The fingerprint sensor is also integrated into the touchpad, which comes in handy while unlocking the device.
There’s also no shortage of connectivity ports on this device. It comes with two USB Type-A ports, so you can easily connect external storage devices and printers. The device also has a USB Type-C port for fast data transfer. This port can also be used to charge the device. The laptop comes with an HDMI 2.1 port despite being this slim. This should come in very handy while connecting a projector or an external display. On the wireless front, the device comes with Wi-Fi 6E and support for Bluetooth 5.3. There is also an HD web camera for video calls, and even a camera shutter for privacy.
Having an OLED screen on a laptop has always been every creator’s dream, and the 14X rightfully fulfils it. Its accuracy clubbed with powerful internals will make content creation work more fun. All these pros are backed by the laptop’s slim and portable design, making the device ideal for creators. The device is now available at your nearest Reliance Digital store.
