In a move to stand out from the crowd, Asus has launched a series of gaming laptops equipped with air-cleaning and a few more health-centric features.
Developed on VU Air Ionizer technology, Asus blends display performance with air purification to provide an experience ensuring user wellbeing.
Asus Air Ionizer laptop series
These laptops are designed to eliminate airborne particles such as dust, pollen as well as allergens to offer a healtheir environment.
It must be borne in mind that these perks stem from the built-in air ionizer Asus deployed within, using nano-ion technology to purify a 1m³ area from across the screen.
Asus claimed its air ionizer screens can remove up to 90% of airborne dust within just three hours, all without filters or any physical maintenance.
Here's a rundown of Asus' VU Air Ionizer series screen sizes:
- VU249HFI-W (23.8 inches, Full HD)
- VU279HFI-W (27 inches, Full HD)
- VU34WCIP-W (34 inches, 4K Ultrawide with 1500R curve)
Other health features in Asus air ionizer laptops
Other notable health features inside Asus' brand-new air ionizer laptops include IPS panels, 100Hz refresh rates, and 1ms MPRT response time, not to mention Asus’ SmoothMotion technology minimising ghosting during fast-paced content.
On the other hand, these beasts are also capable of ensuring user's eye health which is done through Eye Care Plus, which brings a pack of TÜV Rheinland-certified Low Blue Light and Flicker-Free features save eye-strain during extended sessions.
With these health-oriented series of laptops, the tech giant took a leap into sustainability as well given the VU series’ packaging being made to be repurposed as desk accessories, such as phone stands or laptop risers.
