Our Verdict

Apple MacBook Pro 16 (2019)

ASUS VivoBook 15 OLED K513 (2021)

The ASUS VivoBook 15 OLED K513 (2021) and the Apple MacBook Pro 16 (2019) are very different. The ASUS is an ultraportable Windows laptop designed for general productivity tasks like text formatting and web browsing, while the Apple is a mobile workstation with a much more powerful dedicated GPU designed for demanding tasks like video editing. The Apple provides a better overall user experience as it has a significantly better touchpad, better-sounding speakers, and a better webcam. It also performs better in multi-threaded workloads and has a longer battery life. The Apple laptop's display is sharper and brighter, but the ASUS can produce deeper blacks because it uses an OLED panel.
