ASUS has announced a significant expansion of its Copilot+ PC range at CES 2025, aiming to make AI-powered laptops more accessible to a wider audience. The new lineup includes models like the Zenbook A14, Vivobook S14/S16, and Vivobook 14/16, all equipped with cutting-edge processors from Qualcomm, AMD, and Intel. This marks a major step in ASUS’s mission to bring the transformative power of artificial intelligence (AI) to everyday users.
Broadening access to AI-powered technology
ASUS is meeting the growing demand for affordable and efficient laptops by introducing AI-enhanced features across its product range. The latest models in the Copilot+ series are designed to elevate both personal and professional workflows, offering improved performance, extended battery life, and enhanced security. These features are powered by Snapdragon X, AMD Ryzen AI 300 series, and Intel Core Ultra processors, showcasing ASUS’s commitment to making AI capabilities universally available.
Mark Linton, Vice President of Device Partner Sales at Microsoft, said, “Copilot+ PCs are the fastest, most intelligent, and most secure Windows PCs ever built, with AI experiences that inspire productivity and creativity. As we approach the end of support for Windows 10, now is the perfect time to upgrade to a new Copilot+ PC, like the all-new Zenbook A14 or ASUS Vivobook 14/16.”
