The latest Zenbook and Vivobook lineups are equipped with stunning new ASUS Lumina OLED displays, ASUS IceCool technology, and unique and Military-grade durable designs, empowering users with outstanding sustainable performance and purposeful innovations. These powerful and stylish models are powered by the latest 13^th Generation Intel Core Processors and come with never-seen-before compactness that incorporates recyclable materials making them incredibly sustainable.

The pricing of the new PCs in the Zenbook and Vivobook series starts from INR 97,990 and INR 47,990, respectively. These laptops will be available on both online platforms (ASUS e-shop/ Amazon/ Flipkart) as well as offline channels (ASUS Exclusive Stores/ ROG Stores/Croma/Vijay Sales/Reliance Digital).

Some of the latest ASUS laptops are built using recyclable materials meeting the highest environmental standards ensuring these are incredibly sustainable devices. In 2023, over 90% of ASUS consumer laptops will meet EPEAT and ENERGY STAR® 8.0 standards, showcasing the brand’s commitment to delivering more on sustainability.

The new Zenbook S 13 OLED is a perfect example of ASUS’s commitment to creating products that minimize environmental impact.
