asus Defies Budget Laptop Expectations with Strong Performance and All-Day Battery Life

The VivoBook S14 M3407 distinguishes itself with a large 70Wh battery, considerably bigger than those found in many similarly sized laptops. This translates to remarkable longevity: up to 18 hours of use with the screen dimmed to 50% brightness, and a still-respectable 13-14 hours at a more practical brightness level.Asus prioritizes quiet operation, keeping chassis temperatures under 46°C during typical use, though fans become noticeably louder at maximum power.
The laptop is currently available starting at €799.95, equipped with an AMD Ryzen AI 5 330 processor (4 cores). Asus recommends configurations with the 8-core processor for optimal office performance. The device supports Power Delivery via its included 65W power supply.
