If you’re looking for an affordable laptop with an OLED screen, plenty of RAM, and a long-lasting battery, Best Buy has you covered. The Asus Vivobook S 14 OLED ticks all those boxes and only costs $499.99 right now with this incredible $450 discount.
This Asus laptop has a new Intel Core Ultra 5 processor, which also means that it’s a Copilot+ PC compatible with all of Microsoft’s newest AI features. It’s also rocking 16GB of LPDDR5X RAM, which is hard to find on a Windows laptop at the $500 price point. Other highlights include 512GB of SSD storage, a 14-inch 1920×1200 screen with a super-vivid OLED panel, Windows Hello support from the IR webcam, and a roomy touchpad. You also get a surprising variety of ports, including double USB-C and USB-A plus full-sized HDMI and a microSD card slot.
When we reviewed the Vivobook S 14 last year, PCWorld contributor Chris Hoffman praised its long-lasting battery life (75 watt-hours) and generous specs for the price, with his only complaint being the lack of a touchscreen. Note that the review was for a pricier model with a faster processor, more RAM, and bigger SSD, but the rest of the specs are very similar — and at $700 less, it’s an undeniable bargain.
This laptop won’t chew through games or 4K video rendering, but as a budget machine with nice upgrades and great battery life, it’s a fantastic choice. Best Buy probably has plenty of stock (including local pickup options), but there’s no telling how long the discount will last.
