ASUS Vivobook 15 OLED (X1505) review – when your display is doing the heavy lifting


Once again, we got ourselves an affordable 15-inch daily driver. But it is not your ordinary multimedia workhorse. Why? Well, because it comes with an OLED display. In fact, you can choose between two panels – a 1080p 60Hz one, or a 2.8K 120Hz unit.

Obviously, this makes the ASUS Vivobook 15 OLED (X1505) a force to be reckoned with. Besides the mouthwatering screen, there is pretty capable hardware, sitting behind the product. We are talking about either the 15W or 45W Alder Lake processors from Intel, with 13th Gen sitting and waiting behind the corner.

You see, we don’t expect this notebook to be a whole lot different from Vivobook 16 (X1605). It should come with the same plastic body material, port selection, and motherboard layout.

However, the display may and will be a deciding factor in an eventual rivalry between these two devices.
