ASUS Vivobook S 16 M5606WA-MH99 - 3.2K OLED at 120Hz

ASUS Vivobook S 16 M5606WA-MH99 puts a 16-inch OLED panel, AMD's Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 processor, and a 1TB SSD into a 3.31-lb laptop. The dark chassis carries a full-size keyboard with a number pad, a Copilot key, and a screen built for sharp text and high-refresh motion.

OLED Display Meets Ryzen AI

The US model combines a 16-inch 3200 x 2000 OLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate, a 0.2ms response time, and a 16:10 aspect ratio. ASUS lists 400 nits typical brightness, up to 600 nits HDR peak brightness, 100 percent DCI-P3 color coverage, and VESA DisplayHDR True Black 500 certification.

The M5606WA-MH99 uses AMD's Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 processor with 12 cores, 24 threads, a 2.0GHz base clock, and speeds up to 5.1GHz. Its integrated Radeon 890M graphics and Ryzen AI accelerator give the notebook a stronger graphics and local-AI specification than ordinary thin-and-light office laptops.

Memory Ports and Storage

Memory is fixed at 32GB LPDDR5X, while the storage drive is a 1TB PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSD. The configuration also includes Windows 11, Wi-Fi 6E, Bluetooth 5.3, and a 1080p infrared camera with Windows Hello support.

Connections include two USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A ports, one USB 4 Type-C port rated for data speeds up to 40Gbps, one additional USB Type-C port, HDMI 2.1, a microSD card reader, and a 3.5mm audio jack. The USB-C ports support display output and power delivery, giving the laptop a practical mix for desks, classrooms, and external displays.

Battery Size and Chassis

ASUS equips the laptop with a 75Wh four-cell lithium-ion battery and a 90W USB-C power adapter. The chassis measures 13.92 inches wide, 9.72 inches deep, and between 0.55 and 0.63 inches thick; the listed weight is 3.31 lb.

The display is non-touch, so pen input and direct screen control are not part of this configuration. The backlit chiclet keyboard uses one-zone RGB lighting, a 1.7mm key travel, a number pad, and a dedicated Copilot key.

Price and Practical Fit

Micro Center listed the ASUS Vivobook S 16 M5606WA-MH99 at $1,099.99, down from an original price of $1,799.99, on 03/11/2026. That listing pairs the exact model with the Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 processor, 32GB memory, and 1TB drive.

Compared with a conventional 16-inch productivity laptop using integrated graphics and a 60Hz panel, this configuration adds a 120Hz OLED screen, a 75Wh battery, 32GB of memory, and a 12-core processor. The tradeoff is the non-touch display and soldered LPDDR5X memory, which limits later memory upgrades.

The result fits users who need a large high-resolution screen, substantial memory, fast local storage, and a broad port selection in a chassis below 3.5 lb. It is less suitable for buyers who require touch input, a user-replaceable memory module, or a dedicated graphics processor.
