World-leading displays
For visual creations, display quality is everything, and that means precise and vivid colors, deep blacks, and luminous whites for ultra-realistic images. The FHD display on Vivobook Pro 16 and Vivobook Pro 15 tick all the boxes: they have PANTONE® Validated status for professional-grade color accuracy, offer a cinema-grade 100% DCI-P3 gamut, and are TÜV Rheinland certified for eye-friendly low blue-light emissions and flicker-free operation.
