A balance between performance and price! You will still get stuff such as the OLED display, and when you step up to the 16-inch, you get a 3.2K 120Hz which I think is just a brilliant display overall.
I loved the large 16 inch 3.2K 120Hz display of the Vivobook S 16 OLED, and most importantly it's lightweight at a mere 1.5kg! Since AI is the new trend of computing, ASUS took this opportunity to integrate a CoPilot button to streamline access to Windows AI functionalities to facilitate seamless multitasking
