Asus announced the ProArt Studiobook laptop and Vivobook Pro laptops. These laptops are designed for graphic designers, photographers, videographers and videographers.

According to the company, these new laptops will join the Zenbook Pro series computers and create a trio that offers a variety of options for creative professionals. The three new laptops have 4K OLED HDR displays with 16:10 aspect ratio versions. These are intended to offer a wider visual space. These displays have been certified by VESA DisplayHDR 600 True Black and are calibrated in-house to conform to Pantone Validated standards. Studiobooks are also Calman Verified to ensure 100% coverage of DCI-P3 colors.

Studiobook Pro and Studiobook Pro also include the Asus Control Dial. This is the first ever physical rotary creative control for a laptop. This concept is similar in design to the control dial on the Microsoft Surface Studio computer. It allows users to control parameters with Adobe creative apps using fingertips. The goal is to reduce cursor movements and improve ergonomics.

This is what the Vivobook Pro 14X/16X laptops do with the ASUS DialPad. It’s a touchpad-based virtual implementation of ASUS Dial, which can also be configured via the ProArt Creator Hub App. It doesn’t feel as tactile as the Studiobook series’ dedicated dial, but it does provide the same functionality.

As an additional support arm for creatives, Asus will also provide three months of Adobe Creative Cloud to all new customers.
