ASUS Vivobook 16 F1605 Core 9 270H 16GB 1TB SSD Silver
The ASUS Vivobook 16 F1605 Core 9 270H 16GB 1TB SSD Silver is a 16-inch laptop built for people who need dependable everyday performance without compromise. Powered by an Intel Core 9 270H processor, DDR4 memory, and a fast NVMe SSD, it handles multitasking, media, and daily computing tasks with ease. An OLED display and SonicMaster-tuned audio make it equally capable for entertainment at the end of the day.
Why this product
Intel Core 9 270H with up to 5.8 GHz
The 14-core, 20-thread processor runs at a base of 2.7 GHz and boosts up to 5.8 GHz, keeping everyday workloads and multitasking responsive.
16-inch WUXGA OLED display
A 1920 x 1200 panel with a 16:10 aspect ratio and TÜV Rheinland certification gives more vertical screen space for documents, browsing, and video.
1TB PCIe Gen4 NVMe SSD
The M.2 2280 PCIe 4.0 x4 drive offers substantially faster data access than SATA-based storage, keeping app launches and file transfers quick.
Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.3
Dual-band 802.11ax wireless and Bluetooth 5.3 provide modern, low-latency connectivity for networks and peripherals.
ErgoSense backlit keyboard
ASUS's ErgoSense chiclet keyboard is engineered for comfortable key bounce and extended typing sessions, with backlighting for low-light use.
SonicMaster audio tuning
The system's audio is tuned by SonicMaster for wider and deeper sound reproduction, suited to movies, music, and games.

- Runs Windows 11 Home out of the box; ASUS recommends Windows 11 Pro for business deployments.
- Charges via a 68W USB-C power adapter, compatible with USB-C charging ecosystems.
- Supports Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) routers and access points, as well as older 802.11 standards.
- Memory is partially soldered: 16GB is on-board and a single SO-DIMM slot accepts an additional module, up to 32GB total. Dual-channel operation requires at least one SO-DIMM installed.
- Has one M.2 2280 PCIe 4.0 x4 slot (currently occupied by the 1TB SSD), so storage expansion requires replacing the existing drive rather than adding a second one.
- The display is non-touch; touch-based workflows or stylus input are not supported.
Best for
- Everyday multitaskers who need a responsive machine for browsing, documents, video calls, and media playback.
- Students and home users who want a large, comfortable display and a full NVMe SSD at a practical size.
- Writers and coders who spend long hours typing and benefit from a backlit ErgoSense keyboard on a 16-inch chassis.
- Media consumers who want OLED image quality and SonicMaster-tuned audio for movies and music.
Trade-offs
- Dedicated GPU workloads — it uses Intel UHD integrated graphics only, so demanding 3D rendering, video encoding acceleration, or high-frame-rate gaming are not within its design scope.
- Users who need touch input — the display is explicitly non-touch with no stylus support.
- Those needing a second storage drive — only one M.2 slot is present and it is already occupied, leaving no room to add storage without replacing the existing SSD.
- Heavy mobile users on battery alone — the battery is rated at 42Wh, which is modest for a 16-inch laptop with a high-performance processor.
