Thanks to the hinge design, the StudioBook S W700 workstation opens up to 180° and allows for easy collaboration on projects when designing, creating contents with colleagues, or showcasing works to clients.

The trackpad also doubles as a calculator number pad as it features a discrete NumberPad that can be activated and deactivated with just a tap at the top-right corner of the trackpad. With the discrete NumberPad turned on, users can still use the trackpad to control the cursor on the screen.

Display

ASUS StudioBook S W700

The display on the StudioBook S (W700) is one of the highlight components of the workstation. The device comes with a LED-backlit screen with an actual size of 17-inch but fits into a 15-inch frame.

This is as a result of the large (84%) screen-to-body ratio of the device, achieved by the narrow bezel design. The 17-inch NanoEdge display has a resolution of 1920 x 1200 pixels, 178° viewing angle and 93% DCI-P3 color gamut.

If you are a creative that works with a lot of graphics, work collaboratively with colleagues and clients on projects, and accurate color representation is your thing, the display of the ASUS StudioBook S W700 will do you proud.

Processor and Storage

Processor-wise, there are two models of the StudioBook S workstation, both of which have powerful configurations. Both processors are made by Intel and users can either choose a StudioBook S with a Xeon E-2176M CPU or another with a Core i7-8750H CPU.

Both models use a power-efficient NVIDIA Quadro P3200 GPU designed for professional applications and supports DDR4 RAM with a maximum capacity of 64GB.

Because the StudioBook is a powerful workstation with powerful innards to match, ASUS fitted five (5) heat pipes and two aluminum-alloy cooling fans to combat heating up and thermal throttling during usage. ASUS also claims that the fans are ultra-silent during operation and run at a low sound level below 35dB.

Battery

ASUS embedded a 3-cell 57Wh lithium-polymer battery within the StudioBook S W700. Yes, the battery is reduced and, given how powerful the workstation is expected to be, may not be able to operate for long hours on battery backup.

This reduced battery size is however understandable as a compromise that needed to be made to maintain the device’s slim architecture.

ASUS StudioBook S W700 Price and Availability

There are no available details regarding the price of the device at the moment. As per availability, ASUS says the workstation will be available to be purchased when it officially launches in the coming months (i.e later in the year 2019).
