ASUS has launched its B-Series and P-Series ranges of commercial notebooks, with devices available through resellers from the end of November 2014. 

The ASUS Advanced B series of notebooks are ultra-light, super-slim, extra-durable, and offer superior performance for corporate executives on the move. Tested to military standards, these notebooks have a durable carbon-fibre-reinforced LCD cover construction, tough anti-shock hard drive to protect data, and a spill-resistant keyboard.

Their lay-flat 180 degree hinged anti-glare HD/HD+ display offer wide viewing angles, and their true-comfort keyboard, responsive SensePoint and precision touchpads make user experience all the more professional.

Under the hood, the ASUS Advanced B series is shipped with Windows 8.1 Pro and latest generation Intel Core processors with Intel vPro Technology. The notebooks offer enhanced security with Trusted Platform Module and a fingerprint reader, while the ASUSPRO Ultra Docking Station offers greater expansion and connectivity.

The ASUS Essential P series are budget-friendly and ultra-reliable notebooks for small and medium-sized enterprises, and for home and home office users. Tested to ASUSPRO’s strict standards, the notebooks are shipped with Windows 8.1 Pro, and users can stay connected anytime with dual-band Wi-Fi. Wake-on-LAN (WOL) allows PCs to be turned on by a simple network message, while built-in USB 3.0 ports offer ultra-fast data transfer speeds.

A removable large-capacity battery pack makes for easy servicing and long battery life, while the ASUSPRO Business Centre for advanced PC management is included in one simple software package. USB Charger+ allows quick charging of mobile devices, even when the notebook is powered off.

“These two ranges of notebooks offer South African users the best of ASUS’ globally renowned research and development, with its robust yet elegant outward appearance only hinting at the notebooks’ power and efficiency,” says Jeff Kuo, country manager for ASUS South Africa. “ASUS strives to make technology accessible to everyone, and these two ranges will certainly offer remarkable experiences to corporate users and to smaller enterprise users.”
