00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:04,120
now on the channel I've covered a lot of
1
00:00:01,599 --> 00:00:06,720
USA's premium laptops there Zen books
2
00:00:04,120 --> 00:00:09,000
but here we have a more affordable model
3
00:00:06,720 --> 00:00:10,960
it's the Vivo book 16 there's also a
4
00:00:09,000 --> 00:00:13,440
14in model and it's powered by the
5
00:00:10,960 --> 00:00:15,519
Qualcomm Snapdragon X this comes
6
00:00:13,440 --> 00:00:17,560
configured with 16 GB of RAM and a
7
00:00:15,519 --> 00:00:21,359
terabyte of storage and it is running
8
00:00:17,560 --> 00:00:23,680
Windows 11 arm so it's not Windows x86
9
00:00:21,359 --> 00:00:25,400
or x64 but the arm variant and I'll be
10
00:00:23,680 --> 00:00:27,119
running over the performance and exactly
11
00:00:25,400 --> 00:00:30,119
what you can expect out of this
12
00:00:27,119 --> 00:00:31,800
affordable laptop here from isus with
13
00:00:30,119 --> 00:00:35,160
that Snapdragon chip included with a
14
00:00:31,800 --> 00:00:39,000
Vivo book 16 we've got our charger 65 W
15
00:00:35,160 --> 00:00:41,920
now that weighs 215 G the laptop is 1.88
16
00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:43,840
kilos for a 16-in laptop I don't think
17
00:00:41,920 --> 00:00:45,879
that's too bad they have kept the weight
18
00:00:43,840 --> 00:00:48,000
down a little bit by using plastic so
19
00:00:45,879 --> 00:00:50,160
it's all plastic there's no metal build
20
00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:51,480
not as premium as the zambuk of course
21
00:00:50,160 --> 00:00:53,480
and it's not meant to be this is a more
22
00:00:51,480 --> 00:00:55,800
affordable laptop so we have a smooth
23
00:00:53,480 --> 00:00:58,760
surface on the lid prone to a few little
24
00:00:55,800 --> 00:01:01,760
smudges yes it can be opened up
25
00:00:58,760 --> 00:01:03,480
onehanded with which is good Palm rest
26
00:01:01,760 --> 00:01:05,239
again the plastic nice and smooth the
27
00:01:03,480 --> 00:01:07,200
touchpad does support their smart
28
00:01:05,239 --> 00:01:09,159
gestures from isus I don't really have
29
00:01:07,200 --> 00:01:11,119
too many complaints about it it's not as
30
00:01:09,159 --> 00:01:13,560
good gain as the Zen book I guess it's
31
00:01:11,119 --> 00:01:16,119
to be expected them being the more
32
00:01:13,560 --> 00:01:18,680
premium models of course keyboard it's
33
00:01:16,119 --> 00:01:20,600
good I like it it's not back lit there's
34
00:01:18,680 --> 00:01:22,799
not really that many compromises apart
35
00:01:20,600 --> 00:01:24,560
from the arrow keys here power button is
36
00:01:22,799 --> 00:01:26,680
located here so you're not going to
37
00:01:24,560 --> 00:01:28,600
accidentally hit that which is good and
38
00:01:26,680 --> 00:01:30,159
we get the number key bad that's
39
00:01:28,600 --> 00:01:31,680
included with the 16in version version
40
00:01:30,159 --> 00:01:34,320
with the 14 of course you don't because
41
00:01:31,680 --> 00:01:36,360
the 14s are about there so they don't
42
00:01:34,320 --> 00:01:38,799
have room to fit that in there's a
43
00:01:36,360 --> 00:01:41,479
little bit of flex and the feel of these
44
00:01:38,799 --> 00:01:43,360
Keys they're quite silent too as well is
45
00:01:41,479 --> 00:01:45,040
good I like typing on it if you're going
46
00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:47,040
to do a lot of typing I think it's a
47
00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:49,520
great keyboard for that which is great
48
00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:52,200
to see what else is great to see is
49
00:01:49,520 --> 00:01:55,240
plenty of ports so we got HDMI 2.1 we
50
00:01:52,200 --> 00:02:00,119
have two type C's that are 40 GB per
51
00:01:55,240 --> 00:02:03,759
second type a port this used be 3.2 gen
52
00:02:00,119 --> 00:02:07,840
so 5 GB per second for that one and 3.5
53
00:02:03,759 --> 00:02:11,120
mm with mic support remember this is
54
00:02:07,840 --> 00:02:14,480
19.9 MM the thickness so it's not the
55
00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:16,640
slimmest of laptops at all but the good
56
00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:18,319
thing about it is the build is very
57
00:02:16,640 --> 00:02:20,120
solid though so it's going to be able to
58
00:02:18,319 --> 00:02:21,720
take a few drops and whatnot it does
59
00:02:20,120 --> 00:02:25,280
have military grade drop protection
60
00:02:21,720 --> 00:02:27,840
status LED and here's another type A
61
00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:29,560
which is also the 5 GBS per second
62
00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:32,319
you're going to get Max speeds out of
63
00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:33,959
this one one the underside is made of a
64
00:02:32,319 --> 00:02:35,360
matte material there's a screw in the
65
00:02:33,959 --> 00:02:37,440
middle so this is why the keyboard
66
00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:39,200
doesn't have really much bounce or Flex
67
00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:41,720
to it we got two downwards firing
68
00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:44,020
speakers here and I'll give you a sample
69
00:02:41,720 --> 00:02:52,959
of what they do sound like
70
00:02:44,020 --> 00:02:55,159
[Music]
71
00:02:52,959 --> 00:02:58,200
now as you can hear from that they're
72
00:02:55,159 --> 00:03:02,959
okay they're nothing amazing the screen
73
00:02:58,200 --> 00:03:05,560
we have is 16x 10 aspect ratio 16 in and
74
00:03:02,959 --> 00:03:07,799
it does have an anti- coating so fars
75
00:03:05,560 --> 00:03:09,200
well with bright lights no Reflections
76
00:03:07,799 --> 00:03:11,640
coming through on it it does a good job
77
00:03:09,200 --> 00:03:13,879
of diffusing them however it's not a
78
00:03:11,640 --> 00:03:16,440
high-end panel this is an affordable
79
00:03:13,879 --> 00:03:18,879
laptop so we're looking at just a 1200p
80
00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:22,519
resolution and a brightness of
81
00:03:18,879 --> 00:03:24,239
officially their measurement is 300 nits
82
00:03:22,519 --> 00:03:27,040
however it's a little bit less than that
83
00:03:24,239 --> 00:03:29,159
it's about 260 that I can get with this
84
00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:30,439
panel and the maximum brightness it's
85
00:03:29,159 --> 00:03:32,560
fine IND
86
00:03:30,439 --> 00:03:34,439
that is good and I feel for what this is
87
00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:37,040
going to be used for which is documents
88
00:03:34,439 --> 00:03:39,080
spreadsheets media things like that it's
89
00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:41,439
perfectly fine but it's not for
90
00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:45,680
professionals this has a
91
00:03:41,439 --> 00:03:50,000
45% ntsc color gamut coverage and Adobe
92
00:03:45,680 --> 00:03:52,519
RGB of around just over 60% so again
93
00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:54,360
it's just really for basic work so for
94
00:03:52,519 --> 00:03:57,079
people that are going to be doing what
95
00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:58,879
this is designed for I feel it to be an
96
00:03:57,079 --> 00:04:01,599
acceptable screen it certainly is
97
00:03:58,879 --> 00:04:04,720
nothing amazing so up the top here we do
98
00:04:01,599 --> 00:04:06,799
have a webcam and we' got some IR
99
00:04:04,720 --> 00:04:09,000
cameras to as well for Windows hello to
100
00:04:06,799 --> 00:04:11,480
log in and I give you a sample of that
101
00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:14,040
webcam now so it is full HD and I find
102
00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:17,120
the quality to be acceptable the audio
103
00:04:14,040 --> 00:04:19,000
it does sound good to from it so be fine
104
00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:21,479
for your video chats and the quality
105
00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:24,120
will be exactly the same with the Vivo
106
00:04:21,479 --> 00:04:26,479
book 14 after all it's the same
107
00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:28,240
Hardware here we are on Windows and it
108
00:04:26,479 --> 00:04:32,320
is Windows 11 Pro that we do get with
109
00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:36,880
our Vivo book 60 now for Ram there's 16
110
00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:41,000
GB and it's running at that
111
00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:41,840
8448 Mega transfers just over 8,000 well
112
00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:45,560
almost
113
00:04:41,840 --> 00:04:48,240
82,000 very good speeds but only 16 GB
114
00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:50,880
however for what this laptop is designed
115
00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:53,440
for that's kind of light use emails
116
00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:55,240
media documents spreadsheets stuff like
117
00:04:53,440 --> 00:04:57,520
that that is still going to be adequate
118
00:04:55,240 --> 00:04:58,840
this 16 I feel if it was a more
119
00:04:57,520 --> 00:05:00,520
demanding laptop that had some more
120
00:04:58,840 --> 00:05:02,600
powerful integrated Graphics then I
121
00:05:00,520 --> 00:05:05,479
would feel it would fall short a little
122
00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:07,199
in that side but really it doesn't now
123
00:05:05,479 --> 00:05:09,280
performance- wise it feels quick and
124
00:05:07,199 --> 00:05:11,280
snappy documents spreadsheets things
125
00:05:09,280 --> 00:05:13,039
like that all do run well I've tested
126
00:05:11,280 --> 00:05:14,199
out open Office on this and there's
127
00:05:13,039 --> 00:05:16,600
really no issues with that we've got
128
00:05:14,199 --> 00:05:18,440
plenty of power now if I do show you uh
129
00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:20,319
the synthetic benchmarks which I will in
130
00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:23,120
SEC hang on but I want to point out one
131
00:05:20,319 --> 00:05:24,759
thing so we do have Wi-Fi 6E with this I
132
00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:26,440
think that's really good and there
133
00:05:24,759 --> 00:05:30,160
you'll see our chipset which is a
134
00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:33,759
Snapdragon X and we have our mpu part of
135
00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:35,199
this too as well so it's got 45 tops for
136
00:05:33,759 --> 00:05:36,759
the AI performance if you're interested
137
00:05:35,199 --> 00:05:38,840
in that and I've covered AI previously
138
00:05:36,759 --> 00:05:41,120
with the other zus videos uh with the
139
00:05:38,840 --> 00:05:42,680
Zim books that I've done and pretty much
140
00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:45,400
the same kind of deal here so I won't
141
00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:48,759
repeat myself for that so the synthetic
142
00:05:45,400 --> 00:05:50,600
bench marks show us that there is a weak
143
00:05:48,759 --> 00:05:52,840
side to this particular chipset and that
144
00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:55,440
is the adreno graphics not particularly
145
00:05:52,840 --> 00:05:57,240
powerful Graphics here score for fire
146
00:05:55,440 --> 00:05:59,759
strike integrated showing it doesn't
147
00:05:57,240 --> 00:06:02,199
even reach a th000 now what we have with
148
00:05:59,759 --> 00:06:05,240
a radon for example integrated Graphics
149
00:06:02,199 --> 00:06:08,479
the 780m or the 890m you're looking at
150
00:06:05,240 --> 00:06:12,080
somewhere over 3,000 points ints Arc can
151
00:06:08,479 --> 00:06:14,560
also get close up to 3,800 almost 4,000
152
00:06:12,080 --> 00:06:16,800
points total score here so there's a big
153
00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:19,280
difference so that is the weak side of
154
00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:21,360
things to this now the performance
155
00:06:19,280 --> 00:06:23,240
looking at geekbench it's adequate it's
156
00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:25,840
okay it's decent multicore score not bad
157
00:06:23,240 --> 00:06:28,039
for the eight core single core yeah it's
158
00:06:25,840 --> 00:06:30,720
it's not a speed demon here either but
159
00:06:28,039 --> 00:06:32,479
there is a good side to this and that is
160
00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:36,280
that if you're using it this is on the
161
00:06:32,479 --> 00:06:39,120
AC so plugged in and then on the battery
162
00:06:36,280 --> 00:06:41,360
the performance is almost almost
163
00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:44,280
identical you can see there's a slight
164
00:06:41,360 --> 00:06:46,400
drop in performance but it is very very
165
00:06:44,280 --> 00:06:47,960
minor basically the same performance on
166
00:06:46,400 --> 00:06:50,080
the battery and off it which you can't
167
00:06:47,960 --> 00:06:52,319
say for x86 machines this of course
168
00:06:50,080 --> 00:06:54,240
being an arm chipset that's running now
169
00:06:52,319 --> 00:06:56,479
compatibility issues have a ran into
170
00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:58,199
anything no but a lot of apps will be
171
00:06:56,479 --> 00:06:59,840
running in the compatibility mode
172
00:06:58,199 --> 00:07:02,720
there's a lot of stuff that just simp
173
00:06:59,840 --> 00:07:04,879
isn't native for example Adobe Premier
174
00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:06,520
Pro video editing that is going to be
175
00:07:04,879 --> 00:07:09,639
emulated they don't have a native
176
00:07:06,520 --> 00:07:12,720
version for arm just yet with this model
177
00:07:09,639 --> 00:07:14,560
now that 1 tby SSD it does perform well
178
00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:17,440
you can see excellent speeds out of it
179
00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:20,360
good random 4ks there and no complaints
180
00:07:17,440 --> 00:07:22,919
for me with the selected SSD great
181
00:07:20,360 --> 00:07:27,120
speeds Now video playback with a very
182
00:07:22,919 --> 00:07:28,840
demanding 4K file is a little stuttery
183
00:07:27,120 --> 00:07:31,039
at the beginning it certainly does have
184
00:07:28,840 --> 00:07:34,039
a lot more dve dropped frames it's not
185
00:07:31,039 --> 00:07:36,560
too bad at the moment but I've noticed
186
00:07:34,039 --> 00:07:39,000
that it is not amazing and that is again
187
00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:41,360
you can see what it's like because of
188
00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:43,400
our integrated Graphics the performance
189
00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:44,919
of it just you know lacking a little bit
190
00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:47,680
there so if you intend to play some
191
00:07:44,919 --> 00:07:50,080
super demanding files then you will run
192
00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:52,400
into a bit of choppiness YouTube
193
00:07:50,080 --> 00:07:56,360
performance now at 4K I want to set it
194
00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:58,479
to the 4K preset 60 frames per second
195
00:07:56,360 --> 00:08:00,680
let's see how it decodes this that is
196
00:07:58,479 --> 00:08:02,759
smooth that playback you can see it is
197
00:08:00,680 --> 00:08:05,240
not dropping frames in fact I enable the
198
00:08:02,759 --> 00:08:08,319
stats just to confirm that no it's not
199
00:08:05,240 --> 00:08:11,080
so okay occasionally it drops one or two
200
00:08:08,319 --> 00:08:13,199
frames there every couple of seconds
201
00:08:11,080 --> 00:08:15,319
which I find to be completely acceptable
202
00:08:13,199 --> 00:08:17,599
I'm in Chrome here and it's doing a good
203
00:08:15,319 --> 00:08:19,560
job of decoding
204
00:08:17,599 --> 00:08:21,960
this now if you want to do something a
205
00:08:19,560 --> 00:08:24,159
little bit more demanding that is 4K
206
00:08:21,960 --> 00:08:27,280
video editing it's possible with the
207
00:08:24,159 --> 00:08:30,639
spec with the Snapdragon X the timeline
208
00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:33,159
can be as you see here a little slow to
209
00:08:30,639 --> 00:08:36,000
catch up to exactly where I am now this
210
00:08:33,159 --> 00:08:38,719
is a very basic video of mine there's
211
00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:40,479
not a lot of grading I don't think
212
00:08:38,719 --> 00:08:43,519
there's any color grading going on with
213
00:08:40,479 --> 00:08:46,080
this early clip here of one of my own uh
214
00:08:43,519 --> 00:08:47,920
reviews from way back and skipping ah
215
00:08:46,080 --> 00:08:49,720
here it's not bad now the playback
216
00:08:47,920 --> 00:08:51,920
resolution for these 4K files which by
217
00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:54,680
the way are 100 megabit per second is
218
00:08:51,920 --> 00:08:57,279
set to a quarter and
219
00:08:54,680 --> 00:09:00,000
occasionally it drops a few frames it's
220
00:08:57,279 --> 00:09:01,760
not 100% fluid now the export times I've
221
00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:03,640
tested this out because this is not
222
00:09:01,760 --> 00:09:06,680
Hardware accelerated remember this is
223
00:09:03,640 --> 00:09:08,640
emulated with Windows 11 arm it's slow
224
00:09:06,680 --> 00:09:11,519
so be prepared for that this is a 10
225
00:09:08,640 --> 00:09:16,079
minute and 40 second clip it's going to
226
00:09:11,519 --> 00:09:20,240
take approximately 22 to 23 minutes to
227
00:09:16,079 --> 00:09:22,000
encode this to 4K so yeah that's not
228
00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:25,360
good at all very slow so if you're going
229
00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:27,120
to be doing a lot of video editing I
230
00:09:25,360 --> 00:09:30,519
don't recommend this laptop for this
231
00:09:27,120 --> 00:09:31,680
take a look at asus's Zen series is much
232
00:09:30,519 --> 00:09:33,800
better suited to that you're going to
233
00:09:31,680 --> 00:09:37,760
have a lot more power and then it will
234
00:09:33,800 --> 00:09:40,320
be running natively on x86 or x64 and
235
00:09:37,760 --> 00:09:42,200
not arm here being emulated which does
236
00:09:40,320 --> 00:09:44,519
affect the performance a little bit as
237
00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:47,360
for gaming basic light games like this
238
00:09:44,519 --> 00:09:49,760
one here ashel 8 in the windows Play
239
00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:51,560
Store is playable it's smooth enough
240
00:09:49,760 --> 00:09:54,200
occasionally you get a few dropped
241
00:09:51,560 --> 00:09:56,279
frames but I wouldn't go any higher than
242
00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:58,040
this kind of level of gaming on this
243
00:09:56,279 --> 00:10:00,079
kind of spec of laptop because the
244
00:09:58,040 --> 00:10:02,680
integrated graphics is not going to be
245
00:10:00,079 --> 00:10:05,399
really that great unless it's a very old
246
00:10:02,680 --> 00:10:08,120
title and something light like a store
247
00:10:05,399 --> 00:10:10,839
game like this one no surprises here
248
00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:13,200
that fan noise and thermals are good on
249
00:10:10,839 --> 00:10:15,240
this laptop because it does not have a
250
00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:17,600
huge amount of power the only time you
251
00:10:15,240 --> 00:10:19,519
ever going to hear that fan is if you
252
00:10:17,600 --> 00:10:21,959
game a little bit and that's pushing
253
00:10:19,519 --> 00:10:23,720
both the CPU and the integrated Graphics
254
00:10:21,959 --> 00:10:25,600
a little and it will come on it's
255
00:10:23,720 --> 00:10:27,800
nothing too offensive and as soon as you
256
00:10:25,600 --> 00:10:29,440
stop the fan will go away too as well
257
00:10:27,800 --> 00:10:31,440
but if you're watching movies documents
258
00:10:29,440 --> 00:10:33,440
spreadsheets it's super quiet you
259
00:10:31,440 --> 00:10:36,000
normally don't hear anything battery
260
00:10:33,440 --> 00:10:38,760
life is good because well it's an
261
00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:41,680
efficient chip the Snapdragon X this can
262
00:10:38,760 --> 00:10:43,680
go for 8 to n hours in my testing with
263
00:10:41,680 --> 00:10:47,519
just light workload so documents
264
00:10:43,680 --> 00:10:49,800
spreadsheets YouTube Chrome movies that
265
00:10:47,519 --> 00:10:53,279
sort of thing is what this is designed
266
00:10:49,800 --> 00:10:55,240
for so not video editing not gaming it's
267
00:10:53,279 --> 00:10:56,600
strength is definitely not that clearly
268
00:10:55,240 --> 00:10:59,000
with the performance of the integrated
269
00:10:56,600 --> 00:11:01,639
graphics and the screen the screen is
270
00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:03,480
not a screen for professional use at all
271
00:11:01,639 --> 00:11:05,440
it's anti-ar so it's a very practical
272
00:11:03,480 --> 00:11:07,040
screen it's bright enough that indoors
273
00:11:05,440 --> 00:11:10,000
it looks good and even Outdoors it's
274
00:11:07,040 --> 00:11:11,680
still going to be legible and we have
275
00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:14,800
these anti-glare while matte bezels
276
00:11:11,680 --> 00:11:16,839
around the outside good to see it has a
277
00:11:14,800 --> 00:11:18,800
infy camera for logging in with Windows
278
00:11:16,839 --> 00:11:21,360
hello it's got a decent keyboard and a
279
00:11:18,800 --> 00:11:25,160
good build quality plenty of ports on it
280
00:11:21,360 --> 00:11:27,639
so all up if you're after a laptop for a
281
00:11:25,160 --> 00:11:29,480
student for basic needs someone that's
282
00:11:27,639 --> 00:11:31,800
just going to log in and watch your
283
00:11:29,480 --> 00:11:34,560
YouTube check some emails Chrome and
284
00:11:31,800 --> 00:11:37,519
things like that and you prioritize a
285
00:11:34,560 --> 00:11:40,560
solid build quality and very good
286
00:11:37,519 --> 00:11:43,839
battery life then the vi book 16 and I'm
287
00:11:40,560 --> 00:11:46,279
sure the 14 as well is going to have you
288
00:11:43,839 --> 00:11:48,839
covered there for that base thanks a lot
289
00:11:46,279 --> 00:11:52,880
for watching this review here of the Aus
290
00:11:48,839 --> 00:11:52,880
VI book 16
