Did you just… Compare a VivoBook to a Zephyrus…?
I did because both would be good for different reasons and I’m just looking for the best all-rounder lol
Just go for the Zephyrus.
Just because they have the same GPU doesn’t mean they’re gonna output the same performance.
Unless you wanna do video editing, which would be good on the VivoBook’s OLED screen.

I have used both of them. I definitely think Zephyrus is better.
What about it made you say it’s better? Not disagreeing, just curious
On paper, they use the same or similar components, but the design and cooling performance will make the Zephyrus processor work more efficiently. This cooling design can provide advantages for long-term use in multitasking, design, and program development. Additionally, you will have a powerful gaming computer once you finish your work.

Very good point! What about battery life on both? I mean regular productivity work.
There is very little difference, VivoBook’s battery is 96w, while Zephyrus’ is 90w. There may be a difference of half an hour between them in low power mode outside.
Honestly, the Zephyrus is so wattage capped, that the VivoBook might be the right choice.
Will get similar performance even. CPU also way better it seems.
Zephyrus if you plan to game a lot but probably VivoBook if you mainly want to do video editing and/or want the number pad. Can’t go wrong with either in my opinion.
