Comfortable keyboard layout, High contrast (AUO423D), Lightweight (1.3 kg / 2.9 lbs)
Fan noise when loaded, Mediocre touchpad
The ASUS VivoBook S14 turned out to be an excellent portable notebook. It's very light weighing only 1.3 kg / 2.9 lbs (depending on the configuration) which is less than most other 14-inch notebooks on the market. Another thing that is important especiall...
appealing and slim design, matte Full HD display, back-lit keyboard, dedicated graphics, decent battery life, available 2.5-inch storage bay

display with poor brightness, contrast and viewing angles, chassis exhibits a lot of flex
The laptop is powered by a ULV quad-core processor, which offers more than enough performance for such usage scenarios as office work and internet browsing. Whether or not a quad-core processor is really needed in a device like the VivoBook, every user mu...
Laudable performance, Thin and lightweight body, Surprisingly good audio quality
Disappointing build quality, No full-size HDMI port, Occasional lag in touchpad
I personally love the Asus VivoBook S14 S406U. It's one of the very few models in its price segment to sport the right ingredients for good performance. Intel's 8th Gen Core i5 along with 8GB of RAM should keep the laptop up to date until Intel's 9th Gen...

Thin and light-weight, Gorgeous display, Top-notch hardware, Good sounding dual speakers
Not solid enough, Battery life could be better
The answer is yes. The VivoBook S14 is one of the first few Windows laptops to challenge the MacBook Air, the way it does, and also it manages to give Apple's machine a run for its money, while at it, at least for the most part. It looks premium, has the...
Relatively light, Anti-glare display, Good performance, Competitive pricing
Lid wobbles easily, Keyboard flexes under pressure, No full-sized SD card slot,
Asus has managed a pretty aggressive range of prices for the VivoBook S14 series. This has come at some cost to the build quality, but overall, it's not a bad package. The S406U variant that we reviewed is priced at Rs. 54,990 and is only available offlin...
The Asus VivoBook S14 is recommended for the modern aesthetics, processor power, and the impressive battery backup. At the given price, you are getting a sleek laptop which feels more compact than it actually is. It is a performance-centric device with th...
