| Asus launches interchangeable laptop |
Known for its sleek looks and recent experiences, Asus is no exception, bringing to market the Vivo Book 13 Slate OLED, a 13.3-inch Windows tablet with OLED display and detachable keyboard at $599.99. .
The company claims that the VivoBook 13 Slate OLED is the first 13.3-inch 2-in-1 Windows laptop with an OLED display.
VivoBook 13 Slate OLED will be available in December. OLED screens are not common in detachable devices. ASUS claims that the device can display 1.07 billion colors, covers 100% of the DCI-P3 color gamut, and has a 0.2ms response time.
The level of blue light is said to be 70% lower than that of LCD screens. Despite the fact that many modern computers with LCD screens also have blue light reduction technology.
In addition, the screen has a contrast ratio of 1,000,000:1 and is DisplayHDR True Black 500 certified, so it should offer a jet black level.
The company didn't position the VivoBook 13 Slate OLED as a pure artist tablet, instead promoting it as an entertainment device.
The company guarantees that the 16:9 aspect ratio provides a full screen viewing experience and is actually a 16:9 screen only.
The VivoBook 13 Slate OLED is also equipped with an Asus Pen 2.0 stylus, which is magnetically attached to the case. There are interchangeable pen heads.

The company said it's a four-speaker Dolby Atmos system that uses smart speakers to get the best sound possible without distortion. The company claims that its playback is 3.5 times that of a standard amplifier.
The Vivobook 13 Slate OLED supports WiFi 6, which can be used for cloud gaming, as well as 3.3GHz quad-core Intel processors, up to 256GB SSD storage and up to 8GB LPDDR4X RAM.
There are two USB-C ports, a 3.5mm combo audio port, and a microSD card reader, as well as a 5-megapixel front camera and a 13-megapixel rear camera.
Includes full size keyboard and 170 degree hinge protective cover. The keyboard also has a travel distance of 1.4mm.
The device can work for nine hours on a single charge. The company also said that you can charge the battery to 60% of its capacity via USB-C in about 39 minutes.
OLED screens are becoming increasingly popular in 13- and 14-inch laptops.
Samsung also announced in January that it would soon begin mass-producing laptop-size OLED panels. Production began in September. New Samsung motherboards will appear in several Asus versions in 2021.
Other manufacturers may also find OLED screens smaller and cheaper. Including the detachable Chromebook Lenovo Duet 5.
