ASUS has launched the Vivobook 16 X1607QA and Vivobook 16 X1607CA alongside the lightweight ZenBook A14. The two are relatively budget-oriented Copilot+ PCs with dedicated NPUs for AI processing.
Both Vivobooks come with largely the same specifications. The two will come with a 16-inch 1920 x 1200 IPS displays, 16GB RAM, 512GB PCIe 4.0 NVMe M.2 storage, and 65W USB-C charging.
For ports, they come with two USB 4 ports, two USB 3.2 Gen1 Type-A ports, an HDMI 2.1 connection, and a single 3.5mm combo jack. They also come with FullHD IR cameras with privacy shutters and support for Windows Hello.
They do differ processors, GPUs, and NPUs. The Vivobook X16 X1607QA comes with a Snapdragon X X1 26 100 processor with a Qualcomm Adreno GPU and a Hexagon NPU with up to 45TOPS. On the other hand, the Vivobook X16 X1607CA has an Intel Core Ultra 5 225H processor with Intel Graphics and Intel AI Boost NPU with up to 13 TOPS.
Battery sizes are different as well with the Snapdragon-based notebook coming with a larger 50Whr battery while the Intel-based laptop settles for a 42Whr battery. The latter, however, has an extra DDR5 SO-DIMM slot for future RAM expansion.
The ASUS Vivobook 16 X1607QA with the Snapdragon X CPU is priced at 45,995 while the Intel Core Ultra 5 225H-powered Vivobook 16 X1607CA is set at PhP 50,995.
Both are now available through ASUS authorized retailers nationwide.
