Keeping computing cool and easy

The R500A has an array of features designed to make computing easier. It features an ergonomically-designed iF Design award winning chiclet keyboard; while IceCool Technology places heat-generating components away from the palm rest, ensuring a comfortable typing experience for users even after prolonged periods of use.

It is accompanied by a large multi-touch pad for smooth, intuitive fingertip control.

ASUS SuperBatt Technology provides an extended battery charge-cycle lifespan that is up to 3x that of normal notebooks.

Computing with a smartphone-like user experience

The R500A features a smartphone-like “always on” user experience thanks to the ASUS Super Hybrid Engine II with instant on technology. It enables the R500A to resume from sleep mode in just 2-seconds, and provides up to two weeks of standby time. In addition, it automatically secures and backs up data when the battery drops to 5% charge. 

*Actual R500A standby time may vary due to specific component performance, connected devices, and environmental differentiation.

Amazing audio

ASUS SonicMaster Lite gives the ASUS R500A the ability to deliver more powerful sounds and richer bass to provide the best audio experience in the mainstream notebook class.
