Från: Severin Kolakov 11 Maj 2023 / 16:00 0

The ASUS Vivobook 15 OLED (X1505) is another budget-conscious laptop at first glance, however, the OLED display and the availability of Alder Lake H-series processors make this a serious contender for a Creator laptop. Of course, if you just need a laptop for lighter work and daily use, you can stick with the Alder Lake U-series, which will undoubtedly increase efficiency, while costing less as well.

Today we’re presenting you with LaptopMedia’s top 5 picks about the ASUS Vivobook 15 OLED (X1505).

3 reasons to BUY the ASUS Vivobook 15 OLED (X1505)

1. Display quality

The OLED panel comes in two variants, with either a Full HD or a 2.8K resolution. The latter has a 120Hz refresh rate, while both panels have a standard 16:9 aspect ratio. We tested the Full HD versions, which are still very impressive, with great viewing angles and a peak brightness of 391 nits. Thanks to OLED technology, the contrast ratio is infinite, so you’re getting the deepest imaginable blacks. The panel also fully covers the sRGB and DCI-P3 color gamuts, while delivering incredible accuracy in the DCI-P3 color gamut with our Design and Gaming profile.

Here are the results of our accuracy test with the stock settings (left) and with our profile applied (right). With a dE value of 1.6, the laptop is perfectly ready for Creator work.

2. Input devices

The base of the Vivobook is first of all protected by ASUS’s Antibacterial guard, which prevents the growth and spread of bacteria, which is useful in the post-COVID era. As for what’s on the base, we have a full-sized backlit keyboard with long key travel and clicky feedback. The touchpad is also pretty big, while the responsiveness and accuracy are up there as well.

3. Upgradeability

The Vivobook has decent upgradeability, with some soldered memory and one SODIMM slot. You get up to 8GB of soldered DDR4 RAM, with up to an additional 32GB through the slot. For storage, there’s one M.2 slot for both Gen 3 and Gen 4 drives.

Here’s our teardown video, which shows how to access both the RAM and the SSD slot.

2 reasons NOT to buy the ASUS Vivobook 15 OLED (X1505)

1. Plastic chassis

Similar to the previous Vivobook 16 that we reviewed, we’ve got a fully plastic chassis. It doesn’t boast very good durability, with a good degree of flex from both the lid and the base. It’s a magnet for fingerprints, however, the material feels good to the touch, so better bring a cleaning cloth with you. Plastic also helps with keeping the weight down, as the Vivobook weighs only 1.70 kg and has a profile of 19.9 mm.

2. I/O

The port selection of the laptop lacks some stuff, with one USB 2.0 port, two USB Type-A 3.2 (Gen. 1) ports, one USB Type-C 3.2 (Gen. 1) port, an HDMI 1.4 port, and an audio jack. Thunderbolt is missing, as well as any memory card slot, which is weird in a laptop that will be curated towards creators, whether ASUS wants it to be or not.
