Hey Earthlings! I just came from the launch of the ASUS Vivobook S16 (S3607QA) at Whitespace Makati, and honestly? I walked out impressed—and okay, a little overwhelmed—by how packed it is with powerful features without the scary price tag. If you’re the kind of person who’s always juggling work stuff, creative projects, video calls, emails, and a bit of Netflix to survive the week, then this laptop might just be your new best friend. Whether you’re a student, a remote worker, or just looking for a laptop that won’t give up halfway through the day, this one’s worth checking out.
AI That Actually Helps (Not Just Buzzwords)
What's Inside
This Vivobook is part of the new Copilot+ PC lineup. Don’t worry if you’re not techy—basically, it means it’s powered by a smart chip (Snapdragon X processor + up to 45 TOPS NPU) that helps your laptop think faster. It learns how you work and helps you get things done quicker and easier.
There’s a built-in Copilot feature that’s like your personal AI assistant. It helps you write, organize, search stuff faster—and the best part? It has a dedicated button so it’s just one click away.
Other helpful tools include:
-
Click-to-Do: lets you multitask like a pro
-
Recall: remembers where you saved stuff (because we all forget sometimes)
It also comes with some handy ASUS AI apps like:
-
StoryCube for organizing files/media
-
AI Noise Cancellation (perfect for Zoom calls at home)
-
Adaptive Dimming so the screen adjusts to your space
Battery That Actually Lasts
Now here’s the part I really love: the battery life.
Up to 32 hours. Yes, seriously. That’s more than a full day’s work without looking for an outlet. Great for people like me who forget to bring their charger everywhere.
For the Visual (and Audio) Types
Let’s talk display: the 16-inch WQXGA 2.5K screen with a 144Hz refresh rate is seriously easy on the eyes. Colors pop, details are sharp, and the 16:10 aspect ratio gives you extra screen real estate without feeling bulky. The 180-degree ErgoLift hinge also makes it comfortable to use in different setups—desk, couch, even bed.
Add Dolby Atmos and Snapdragon Sound, and you’re getting immersive audio whether you’re on a video call or deep into a playlist.
It’s Built for Daily Life
What makes the Vivobook S16 so practical is that it just fits into your routine. It comes with WiFi 6E, a full set of I/O ports (so no dongles needed), and even Snapdragon Seamless and Microsoft Phone Link for syncing across your devices. You can easily switch between phone and laptop without breaking focus.
Security-wise, you’ve got the essentials: a webcam shield, Windows Hello, Adaptive Lock, and the Microsoft Pluton security processor for extra peace of mind.
Definitely solid value for what’s essentially a future-proof laptop.
Price & Freebies
This whole package costs ₱50,995, and it already includes:
-
An ASUS backpack

Office Home 2024 (lifetime)

Honestly, for what it can do, that’s a great deal.
