    AI Laptops

    What is Copilot+ PC and why is it a big deal?

    Copilot+ PCs are the next generation of AI-powered laptops designed to help you work smarter and faster. Powered by Snapdragon® X Series processors or Intel/AMD with NPU (Neural Processing Units), they run AI tasks directly on the device.
    With Windows Copilot, you can:

    • Summarise emails and documents

    • Rewrite text in real time

    • Search your PC using natural language

    • Use Recall, a feature that helps you find anything you've seen on your device

    Think of it as your AI sidekick — always on, always fast, and private.

    Best Copilot+ Picks: Zenbook UX3407, Vivobook S S3407QA, ProArt HT5306QA

    Can I disable AI features on my Copilot+ PC?

    Yes. ASUS Copilot+ PCs give you full control over your AI experience. You can easily disable or limit features like Recall, Live Captions, or Studio Effects via the Windows settings menu. This ensures you maintain your preferred level of privacy and performance.

    Does Copilot+ work offline?

    Many AI features on Copilot+ PCs are designed to run entirely on-device—thanks to the built-in Neural Processing Unit (NPU). Features like Recall, background blur, and voice clarity can work even without an internet connection, giving you fast, secure, and private AI experiences anytime.

    What AI features come with Qualcomm Snapdragon vs Intel NPU?

    Both Qualcomm Snapdragon and Intel-powered Copilot+ PCs deliver powerful on-device AI experiences using dedicated NPUs (Neural Processing Units), enabling features like Recall, Live Captions, Cocreator, Studio Effects, and more—all designed to enhance productivity, creativity, and collaboration.

    • Qualcomm Snapdragon X Series Copilot+ PCs, like this ASUS Zenbook, are built for fanless performance with exceptional battery life and mobile-first efficiency. Their NPU enables smooth, real-time AI processing without relying on the cloud—making them ideal for on-the-go users who need all-day productivity and quiet operation.

    • Intel Core Ultra Copilot+ PCs bring AI power into the traditional Windows ecosystem, combining strong multi-core performance with AI acceleration for creative tasks, video conferencing, and more. These systems are well-suited for users running heavier applications or multitasking between AI and CPU-intensive software.

    No matter which platform you choose, ASUS ensures you get a premium AI PC experience, powered by Microsoft’s next-gen Copilot+ platform.

     

    What makes an ASUS AI laptop different?

    • Live translation & transcription

    • AI-enhanced photo/video editing
