The ASUS Vivobook S 15 OLED offers an excellent OLED screen, long battery life, and is generally more affordable, ideal for general use and enjoying media with its impressive display. Its lightweight design enhances its portability. In contrast, the Eluktronics RP-15 has a more powerful gaming-oriented graphics card suitable for 3D rendering, machine learning, and more intensive gaming, with a higher price tag and a bit more weight, compromising a bit on portability. Neither is primarily targeted as a business laptop; they focus on different user experiences: the ASUS prioritizes display quality and price, while the Eluktronics caters to performance-heavy tasks.

The ASUS Vivobook S 15 OLED has a better screen than the Eluktronics RP-15 for general use, gaming and AI, engineering and design, software development, and content creation.
The ASUS Vivobook S 15 OLED boasts an OLED display which provides superior contrast and color accuracy, making it ideal for engineers and designers who require precise color representation, but its lower refresh rate may not suit the fast-paced visuals required in gaming. The Eluktronics RP-15, with a high-quality non-OLED screen, offers a balance between color accuracy and brightness that is very good for both general use and detailed engineering work, but similarly falls short for gaming due to lack of a high refresh rate. Both screens, despite their individual strengths for various tasks, may not fully satisfy gamers who prioritize smooth motion and quick refreshes over color detail and brightness.

Darragh Murphy | November 2022
"The Asus Vivobook S 15 OLED excels as a capable work machine at an affordable price. It offers commendable performance, thanks to its 12th Gen Intel chip, delivers quality on-screen entertainment with its 15.6-inch OLED display, and can (kind of) get you through a full day of work. Oh, and its special Asus Antibacterial Guard is a nice touch for those who like a clean laptop."

"To conclude, I’m genuinely impressed with Eluktronics and what they have been able to deliver with the RP-15. You see this is all about maximizing performance, cooling, and giving users the most flexible I/O, and then wrapping it into a chassis that doesn’t feel super cheap. Let’s also not forget the price point, I think they have really nailed it in that department."
