ASUS VivoBook 14 X1404VA-EB1611 — Cool Silver | Intel® Core™ 5 120U | 8GB DDR4 | 512GB PCIe 4.0 SSD | 14" FHD IPS 60Hz | Intel® Graphics | Wi-Fi 6 | Backlit Keyboard | Fingerprint | MIL-STD-810H | ASUS Antimicrobial Guard Plus | Windows 11 Home
The ASUS VivoBook 14 X1404VA in Cool Silver is a slim, lightweight and thoughtfully engineered everyday laptop that delivers reliable Intel® Core™ 5 processor performance, fast NVMe SSD storage and a comfortable, feature-rich user experience in a 1.4-kilogram chassis that travels effortlessly in any backpack — making it the ideal everyday companion for students, remote workers, creatives and anyone who needs a dependable, well-built laptop for work, study and entertainment. The Intel® Core™ 5 120U processor runs at a base clock of 1.4GHz and boosts to 5.0GHz across 10 cores and 12 threads with 12MB of cache — delivering the computing performance needed to handle demanding productivity workloads, multitasking across many browser tabs and applications simultaneously, video editing in entry-level editing software and light creative work without hesitation or slowdown. The 8GB of DDR4 onboard RAM provides sufficient memory for fluid everyday multitasking, with one available DDR4 SO-DIMM slot allowing expansion up to 16GB total for users who need greater memory headroom for heavier workloads. The 512GB M.2 NVMe PCIe 4.0 SSD delivers substantially faster boot times, application loading and file transfer speeds than conventional SATA SSD storage — making the day-to-day experience of using the VivoBook 14 feel noticeably more responsive and immediate than older storage technologies can provide.
The 14-inch FHD IPS-level display with 1920×1080 pixel resolution, a 60Hz refresh rate, 250 nits of brightness, 45% NTSC colour gamut coverage and a screen-to-body ratio of 83% delivers clear, comfortable and accurate visuals for document work, web browsing, streaming video and everyday creative tasks with the wide viewing angles that IPS-level technology provides — ensuring the image remains consistent and colour-accurate even when viewed from off-centre angles. The anti-glare coating reduces reflections from windows and indoor lighting, making the display more comfortable to use in bright environments without needing to close blinds or reposition the laptop. TÜV Rheinland eye-care certification confirms that the display meets recognised standards for low blue-light output and flicker-free performance that reduce the risk of eye strain and visual fatigue during extended work and study sessions. The ASUS NanoEdge three-sided slim-bezel design maximises the display area within the compact 14-inch footprint, delivering an immersive screen-to-body ratio that makes content feel larger and more expansive than the physical dimensions suggest.
The ASUS ErgoSense backlit keyboard with 1.4mm key travel and a full-size 19.05mm key pitch replicates the comfortable typing experience of a desktop keyboard in a portable laptop form factor — with precisely calculated key bounce and travel that reduces typing fatigue during long work sessions and helps maintain accuracy and speed throughout the day. ASUS NumberPad 2.0 transforms the precision touchpad into a number pad with a single tap of the touchpad icon, adding numerical input capability without requiring a separate numeric keypad or any additional desk space. The fingerprint sensor integrated directly into the touchpad works with Windows Hello for one-touch secure login without requiring a password, while the physical privacy shutter that slides directly over the webcam lens provides instant, hardware-level webcam privacy without needing software settings or sticky notes over the camera. The 180-degree lay-flat hinge allows the screen to open completely flat against the desk surface — ideal for sharing content with someone sitting across from you or collaborating with a group of people around a table. The built-in array microphone with AI noise-cancelling support in the MyASUS application ensures your voice comes through clearly during video calls and online meetings, filtering out ambient background noise automatically.
Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) with Bluetooth 5.2 provides fast, stable and responsive wireless connectivity for online work, video streaming and cloud-based applications, with ASUS WiFi SmartConnect intelligently switching between Wi-Fi bands to maintain the strongest available connection at all times. The I/O port configuration covers two USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A ports, one USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-C port, one USB 2.0 Type-A port, an HDMI 1.4 output for external display connection, a 3.5mm combo audio jack and the DC charging input — providing comprehensive connectivity for peripherals, monitors, headphones and charging without requiring additional dongles for everyday use. The 42WHr three-cell lithium-ion battery with fast-charging support that reaches 60% in as little as 49 minutes keeps you working through the day without being tethered to an outlet. US MIL-STD-810H military-grade durability certification confirms that the VivoBook 14 has been tested against standardised protocols for temperature, humidity, altitude, vibration and mechanical shock — building genuine real-world reliability into a laptop that is designed to withstand the demands of an active daily lifestyle. ASUS Antimicrobial Guard Plus, a scientifically proven silver-ion surface coating applied to the laptop's external surfaces, inhibits over 99% of bacterial and viral growth for a hygienically cleaner laptop throughout its lifetime.
