As well as boasting an eye-catching appearance, the Vivobook S 15 OLED BAPE Edition is also an Intel Evo-certified powerhouse, with up to a 13th Gen Intel Core i9-13900H processor and with 16 GB of LPDDR5 memory and a stunning 2.8K 120 Hz OLED display, this laptop ensures a visually immersive and responsive experience. Its long-lasting 75 Wh battery empowers users to accomplish their tasks with ease, no matter where they are, while exuding a remarkable sense of style.

Lenny Lin, Business Development Manager, ASUS Malaysia, said:

“We are thrilled to announce the exceptional partnership between ASUS Vivobook and A BATHING APE® — a collaboration that embodies the spirit of streetwear and pushes the boundaries of design. This marks the debut of both the first-ever BAPE® laptop and the first-ever streetwear-inspired laptop to our Vivobook series,”

BAPE added:

“BAPE is delighted to team up with ASUS Vivobook to design a limited-edition collection that combines BAPE®’s unique and vibrant style with ASUS Vivobook’s powerful and high-performance laptops. This partnership shows BAPE®’s dedication to providing high-quality and fashionable products that enhance style.”

The limited-edition Vivobook S 15 OLED BAPE Edition bundle is available in two colourways: a blue bundle with a Cool Silver laptop, and a green bundle with a Midnight Black model, both featuring a metallic lid that sports an intricate BAPE x ASUS-designed photo-light-etched linear camo pattern. There’s also a reflective logo tag, which gives the laptop a discrete and premium touch. Taking the design to another level, the laptop itself features exclusive BAPE design elements on the touchpad, the bottom of the device and the palm rest area.

Vivobook S 15 OLED BAPE Edition also comes with an exclusive accessory bundle patterned in blue camo for the Cool Silver model or green camo for the Midnight Black model. This captivating camo design — specially created for this collaboration — embodies a perfect fusion of timeless aesthetics and playful charm. At its core, it features the classic BAPE ABC camo pattern, renowned for its enduring appeal and versatility. To infuse a delightful twist into the design, BAPE® has introduced the beloved BABY MILO Friends characters, injecting a sense of joy and whimsy.

Also seamlessly integrated into the pattern is the ASUS Vivobook name, showcasing a harmonious blending of both brands’ identities. And to top it all off, there’s the iconic BABY MILO holding a Vivobook, serving as a reference to the product itself. There’s also a compact mouse with interchangeable top covers: each bundle has one black cover and either a blue or a green cover, depending on the chosen colorway. The black cover showcases a mystic and cool style that perfectly complements the special pattern of the laptop. The blue and green versions align with the themed colours of the carry bag, while a handy strap allows for easy portability.

The bundle is topped off by BABY MILO himself, in the form of a unique and adorable BABY MILO figurine that’s the secret highlight of the bundle. This figurine is exclusive to this BAPE Edition bundle and depicts BABY MILO carrying a Vivobook BAPE Edition laptop.
