Our Verdict

ASUS Vivobook S 16 Flip TP3604 (2023)

ASUS Zenbook 14 OLED (2024)

The ASUS Zenbook 14 OLED (2024) is much better than the ASUS Vivobook S 16 Flip TP3604 (2023). Although both are ultraportables designed for general productivity, the Zenbook is a more premium model with better build quality, more performance, and longer battery life, while the Vivobook is more budget-friendly. The Vivobook is a good option for its price; its main flaw is its short battery life.
