ASUS Vivobook 18 Copilot+ laptop, Ryzen 7 260, 32 GB DDR5, 1 TB, 18" 144 Hz, Quiet Blue

18-inch Copilot+ laptop

The ASUS Vivobook 18 is a new 18-inch Copilot+ laptop built around an AMD Ryzen 7 260 octa-core processor and 32 GB of DDR5 memory. Integrated Radeon graphics drive a 1920x1200 IPS panel at 144 Hz with 300 nits brightness and 100 sRGB coverage. It ships with Windows 11 Home, a 1 TB SSD, Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.3, a backlit chiclet keyboard and an FHD IR camera with a privacy shutter in a Quiet Blue chassis.

Upgrade from smaller or slower portables

The 16:10 WUXGA display adds vertical workspace compared to 16:9 panels, while the 144 Hz refresh rate smooths scrolling and pen input beyond standard 60 Hz screens. The Ryzen 7 260 reaches 5.10 GHz turbo across 8 cores and 16 threads, and its XDNA NPU accelerates on-device AI tasks that older CPUs handle slowly or not at all. Buyers who need discrete GPU power for heavy 3D rendering or high-frame-rate gaming will not find it here.

Sustained productivity thermal profile

The 18-inch footprint provides internal volume for cooling the 8-core processor during long compile, encode or multi-app sessions without immediate throttling. The 90.6 screen-to-body ratio and anti-glare coating keep the large panel usable under bright office lighting for extended periods. Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.3 maintain stable peripheral and network links throughout the workday. The 64 GB memory ceiling allows future expansion if workloads grow beyond the factory 32 GB.
