Nagmani International, the sole authorised distributor of Asus for Nepal, has introduced a new laptop computer — the Asus VivoBook S-400 CA.
The new product from the Taiwanese electronics major is sleek in design, weighs less and will cater to the demand of high-end gadget seekers and those travelling frequently, according to the company. Moreover, its fascinating touch-screen sets the product apart from similar other products.
“We have been receiving frequent queries about the product ever since its launch in the international market,” said Super Shrestha, product manager - Asus at Nagmani International. “It has been a week since we launched the product here and the response so far has been encouraging.”
Shrestha expressed his confidence about the device’s performance, saying gadget aficionados in Nepal want a laptop computer having touch-screen facility. The emergence of Asus as a prominent laptop maker globally and its strengthening presence in the domestic market will help this new product here, he said.
The new Asus VivoBook runs Windows 8 Operating System (OS) and features powerful third generation Intel Core i5 processor. It also offers offers 2-second instant on from sleep or hibernate modes. The device features a 14-inch backlight touch-screen display. “Probably, we are the only company to sell touch-screen laptop s in Nepal after Lenovo. This is also an advantageous feature,” Shrestha said. The device’s screen can display visuals in the aspect ratio of 16:9 HD formats.
As for the memory, the latest offering from Asus comes with 4GB RAM and 500GB hard drive with 28GB SSD hard drive, which further enhances the storage capability of the device. It features a HD web camera for clear video chats and is equipped with Sonic Master technology for richer sound experience with wider sonic range, deeper bass and powerful output, the company said.
For connectivity, the device has integrated a wireless adapter for Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 4.0. It, however, does not feature an optical disk drive, the only missing feature.
According to Shrestha, the company has targeted this device at corporate officials, bankers and those working with I/NGOs. “High-end gadget seekers too are our target customers,” Shrestha said, adding the light-weight machine (1.8 kg) will also cater to the demand of frequent travellers. Nagmani International has said the new Asus device is imported from Asus’ Taiwan-based factory and is priced Rs 95,000. The device will be available across the country within the next week.
