ASUS today launched VivoBook Flip 14 (TM420), a boldly styled convertible touchscreen laptop with a 360° hinge that allows it to be used in laptop, stand, tent and tablet modes — or anything in between. It also supports the ASUS Pen active stylus for natural writing and response feel, along with accurate input.

Everything’s a breeze with VivoBook Flip 14, thanks to its powerful AMD Ryzen 7 4700U Mobile Processor with 8 GB memory and up to 512GB PCIe SSD. It’s also full of personality, sporting a sleek Bespoke Black finish and a color-blocked Enter key with yellow edges and text. The compact VivoBook Flip 14 is the perfect on-the-go laptop for productivity or entertainment anywhere.

Versatility that flips the world on its head

VivoBook Flip 14 (TM420) is designed to turn heads, featuring a bold Bespoke Black all-metal chassis with diamond-cut edges, a recessed lid logo, a unique color-blocked Enter key with bright yellow edges and text, and a diamond-cut lip that makes it easy to flip open the lid.

For the ultimate touch experience, VivoBook Flip 14 has a touchscreen that detects even the subtlest fingertip movements. It supports the optional ASUS Pen active stylus, which allows users to let their creativity flow with a natural responsive feel. ASUS Pen is bundled with a holder that simply sticks onto the laptop’s lid, so the stylus is always within reach.

To ensure the ultimate durability, the precision-engineered stepless 360° metal hinge on VivoBook Flip 14 is tested to pass a 20,000-cycle open-and-close test. VivoBook Flip 14 will be ready for any mode at anytime — for years to come.

Power for work or play
