The ASUS Vivobook 15 X1504ZA‑NJ522WS is a portable and durable 15.6-inch laptop suitable for students, professionals, and everyday users. It’s powered by a 12th–gen Intel Core i5‑1235U processor, featuring 10 cores (2 P‑cores + 8 E‑cores) and turbo boost up to 4.4 GHz, delivering smooth performance for multitasking and productivity. Accompanying this is integrated Intel Iris Xe Graphics, which enhances visuals and can handle moderate creative tasks smoothly
The laptop ships with 8 GB DDR4 RAM (4 GB soldered + 4 GB in a SO‑DIMM slot), expandable to 12 GB, and a 512 GB M.2 NVMe PCIe 3.0 SSD, giving you fast responsiveness for daily work and applications . It sports a 15.6″ Full HD (1920×1080) anti-glare display with 60 Hz refresh and 250 nits brightness—enough for general use—set within NanoEdge bezels offering about 84% screen-to-body ratio. The build includes a 180° lay-flat hinge and military-grade durability (MIL‑STD‑810H certified), making it sturdy and travel-friendly at just around 1.7 kg and 17.9 mm thin
For connectivity, it supports Wi‑Fi 6E and Bluetooth 5.3, and provides a versatile set of ports: USB‑C 3.2 Gen 1, two USB‑A 3.2 ports, one USB‑A 2.0, HDMI 1.4, a 3.5 mm audio jack, and DC-in (charging via USB-C isn’t supported) . Additional features include a backlit chiclet keyboard, 720p webcam with privacy shutter, SonicMaster-tuned speakers, and bundled software like MyASUS, ScreenXpert, GlideX, and Microsoft Office Home & Student 2021 .
Battery power comes from a 42 Wh cell paired with a 45 W charger, capable of fast-charging to 60% in approximately 49 minutes . However, real-world battery life has been inconsistent—several users report runtimes of just 2–4 hours even under light usage, significantly below expectations . Some users also mention touchpad responsiveness issues, while others highlight that enabling dual-channel memory (by adding RAM) unlocks full performance of the Iris Xe GPU .
