Asus hardly ever runs sales on its laptops, let alone its best-sellers like those in the Vivobook series. The 14-inch Vivobook is now available from Amazon for $476, down from $799, and it’s an all-time low price cut for a configuration that packs 24GB of RAM, a 1TB SSD, and Intel’s 10-core i5-1334U processor. That’s a straight 40% discount that pushes the price of a premium ultraportable below most budget laptops.
Great Laptop in 2025
Inside this Vivobook sits an Intel Core i5-1334U processor with a total of 10 cores divided between performance and efficiency architectures which boosts to 4.6GHz when you need maximum speed for more demanding tasks. This multi-core design crushes workloads that include Excel data analysis, Photoshop editing and light gaming without the stuttering usually experienced with dual-core budget laptops.
Heavy lifting-like compiling code or exporting videos-is left to the performance cores, while efficiency cores manage background processes and lighter tasks to conserve battery. The 24GB of DDR4 RAM means even the most strenuous multitasking-scenario virtual machines, 4K footage editing, and 50-plus browser tabs open across multiple research projects-run smoothly.
For this price, you get a 1TB PCIe SSD with read speeds over 3,000 MB/s. It means Windows will boot in less than 10 seconds, applications launch instantly, and you are never left waiting. With its huge storage capacity, you can hold years of documents, photos, videos, and software without being pushed onto cloud subscriptions or external drives.
The 14-inch FHD display pushes sharp text and vibrant colors through an IPS panel with ultra-narrow bezels that maximize screen real estate. A 16:9 aspect ratio provides enough vertical space for productivity work like writing and coding without losing the widescreen format so great for streaming shows and movies. Anti-glare coating on the display reduces eye strain in marathon study sessions or all-day work sprints.
From a security point of view, the HD webcam includes a physical privacy shutter, which, when slid into place, physically covers the lens, offering the best and fullest assurance that no defective software or malware could turn on the camera without your knowledge. The video call quality remains clear and sharp for seamless Zoom meetings, online classes and remote collaboration.
The battery life extends up to 8 hours for typical use, and covers most workdays or class schedules without hunting for outlets in between. Windows 11 is pre-installed with integrated Microsoft Copilot AI to help with drafting emails, summarizing documents, creating creative content, and automating repetitive tasks using natural language-based commands. Wireless connectivity is taken care of by Wi-Fi 5 and Bluetooth 5.1 to support modern peripherals, hotspots, and home networks. The port selection includes USB-A, USB-C, HDMI, and a headphone jack.
At $476 instead of $799, this deal is the lowest price Amazon has offered on an Asus Vivobook with this configuration. Budget laptops at similar prices ship with half the RAM, a quarter of the storage and processors that struggle with anything beyond web browsing.
