ASUS has announced its latest ExpertCenter Mini Towers and P400 AiO series, which join the company’s lineup of new ExpertBook P and B series laptops.

The two Mini Towers come in the ExpertCenter P500MV and ExpertCenter P500SV desktops.

The P500MV Mini Tower is a 15.9L chassis and is packed with up to Intel Core i7 processors for up to 95W thermal design power (TDP).

There’s a full array of I/O ports so users can easily connect the P500 to a wide range of business peripherals.

It has three front-mounted USB ports and an optional Smart card and SD reader. At the back, there’s an HDMI and DisplayPort, audio jack channels, and further USB ports, as well as a LAN port.

ASUS’s Tower Air Cooler system, meanwhile, complements everything with cooling efficiency. The three partially-flattened heat pipes connect to a large fan for a larger heat-dissipation area.

As such, CPU performance is boosted and power consumption is reduced by up to 38%.

For a smaller, more space-saving option, there’s the 8.6L P500SV. It likewise comes with an assortment of ports, capable processors, and room for memory and storage expansion with an easily-removable side panel and components arranged similarly to those inside laptops.

ASUS ExpertCenter AiO P400 series

Meanwhile, the all-in-one P400 series monitor PCs have the 24-inch ExpertCenter P440 and 27-inch ExpertCenter P470 as options.

These workstations combine a compact design with less components and cable with powerful performance and AI features.

Instead of a Mini Tower or chassis, the back of the monitor already houses all the PC components. And yet, it’s not even too bulky. Plus, there’s also room for up to 64GB of RAM and 2TB SSD storage.

Both models have FHD displays with a 93% screen-to-body ratio and support Dolby Atmos audio for a premium experience for various tasks.

They feature ASUS Splendid for four different preset modes for the display. Users can also add a manual preset to tailor the display settings for scenarios like video editing or even just streaming.

The P400’s stands are also height-adjustable and VESA-compatible for wall-mounting or placement in various environments.

The display is tiltable left and right and rotatable for vertical orientations. And specifically, the 24-inch variant has a touchscreen display.

ASUS ExpertMeet

Like all of ASUS’s new business laptop releases, the ExpertCenter P500 desktops and P400 monitor PCs come with ASUS AI ExpertMeet.

There’s AI Meeting Minutes which can capture and transcribe meetings, turning audio into clear text for easy review.

Users can also leverage AI Translated Subtitles for instant subtitles for live calls and recordings on the fly, as well as translations.

For video conferencing, there’s AI Noise Cancellation, AI Camera, and Webcam Watermark. AI Audio, meanwhile, can block off noise when a user records sound.

Multi-presenter mode also acknowledges multiple unique voices from different locations and distances so they are all conveyed at a similar volume.

ASUS ExpertGuardian

The aforementioned devices also come with commercial-grade and NIST SP 800-155-compliant BIOS.

Coupled with Windows 11 Secured-core PC technologies, the laptops create a fortified defense against software vulnerabilities.

On top of these, ASUS offers a comprehensive five-year support for BIOS and driver updates.

And like the ExpertBook P and B series laptops, even the Mini Towers and monitor PCs likewise have Military-Grade Standard compliance to withstand tough conditions.

Apple Vision Pro gets M5 chip upgrade

And comfortable Dual Knit Band

Published

October 15, 2025

GadgetMatch

Apple has introduced the upgraded Apple Vision Pro, now powered by the M5 chipand equipped with the Dual Knit Band for improved comfort.

This latest version delivers faster performance, sharper display rendering, longer battery life, and new experiences through visionOS 26, which introduces widgets, updated Personas, and new Apple Intelligence features with expanded language support.

M5 chip brings faster AI and sharper visuals

The M5 chip, built on third-generation 3-nanometer technology, introduces a 10-core CPU and GPU that boost performance across the system. Apps launch faster, web browsing feels more responsive, and visuals appear sharper with 10% more pixels rendered on Vision Pro’s micro-OLED displays.

The new GPU supports hardware-accelerated ray tracing and mesh shading. It brings lifelike lighting and reflections to games like Control. Vision Pro now supports refresh rates up to 120Hz. It reduces motion blur and delivering smoother experiences for Mac Virtual Display users.

The high-performance battery extends use to 2.5 hours of general activity or 3 hours of video playback on a single charge. Meanwhile, the 16-core Neural Engine accelerates AI-powered tasks up to 2x faster than before. Developers can now use Apple’s Foundation Models framework to create smarter on-device AI experiences.

Dual Knit Band offers improved comfort

Apple introduces a redesigned Dual Knit Band, crafted from 3D-knitted fabric for a more cushioned and balanced fit. It uses flexible ribs embedded with tungsten inserts for counterweight and stability, while the dual-function Fit Dial enables fine-tuned adjustments.

The Dual Knit Band is available in three sizes (S, M, L), sold separately, and compatible with previous Vision Pro models. Users can find their best fit through the Apple Store app for iPhone.

visionOS 26 expands spatial experiences

With visionOS 26, Vision Pro adds immersive new ways to work and play. Widgets can now stay anchored in your space, Personas look more natural in FaceTime, and spatial photos use AI to add realistic depth.

Vision Pro also supports 180° and 360° video playback from Canon, Insta360, and GoPro. This lets creators and users relive footage the way it was captured. Later this year, the Vision Pro app for iPad will launch. It will give users another way to browse and manage spatial content.

Expanding apps, games, and immersive content

Vision Pro users can explore over 1 million apps, with 3,000+ made specifically for visionOS. Lifestyle and design apps like HomeByMe, Balenciaga, and Christie’s Select join entertainment titles like Epic Earth and Space Vision.

Apple Immersive continues to push storytelling boundaries with new titles from Audi F1 Project, BBC, HYBE, and Red Bull. There are also 3D movie hits like Jurassic World Rebirth and Wicked on the Apple TV app.

Gaming also levels up with support for PlayStation VR2 Sense controllers. It unlocks tactile gameplay with six degrees of freedom and haptic feedback.

Built for creators and professionals

Pro users can use Vision Pro for advanced workflows — from 3D design and photography to film production and live collaboration. The new Logitech Muse stylus offers pixel-level precision in apps like Crayon and Sketch Pro. Enterprises such as CAE, Porsche, and UC San Diego Health are already adopting Vision Pro to power simulation, visualization, and healthcare innovation.
