With a new input method

It feels like brands keep targeting content creators these days that for a while it seemed like all devices were just made for them. ASUS is bringing a little bit more to the table by introducing the ASUS Dial to their ProArt Studibook and Vivobook creatore series laptops.

Geared towards creatives who have to deal with adjusting values a lot — whether it’s color correcting or finding the right contrast or white balance — the ASUS Dial introduces a faster way to get these things done. On certain products in the company’s new set of products, the ASUS Dial is built in and is immediately visible. In others, it’s baked into the upper-left hand side of the trackpad.

Adobe X ASUS

Naturally, this won’t do if it was just hardware alone. To make sure the tech works, ASUS worked closely with Adobe to make sure this innovation is integrated into the relevant software.

Included in the package of these laptops are either a one-month or three-month Adobe Creative Cloud subscription. That’s free access to the Adobe Creative Cloud suite consisting of popular creator apps like Photoshop, Premiere, After Effects, and more.

OLED all the way

Another important shift in this creator-centric approach is the move to make sure the lineup is equipped with OLED displays. Vivid imagery, low bluelight are just some of the general benefits. For creators, specifically, the OLED tech by ASUS incorporates color accuracy.

Here are all the devices included in this brand new ASUS Creator Series line-up.

At WWDC 2026, Apple unveiled Siri AI, a smarter version of Siri powered by Apple Intelligence, with personal context, onscreen awareness, deeper app integration, and a brand-new experience across iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple Watch, and Vision Pro.

Apple also announced new Apple Intelligence features, Google Gemini-powered foundation models, smarter photo editing tools, improved parental controls, faster performance across iPhone and iPad, and the next version of macOS: Golden Gate.

In this WWDC 2026 Rewind, Michael Josh breaks down the biggest announcements, what actually matters. And, whether Apple finally delivered on the promises it made last year.

Here’s all the RTX Spark notebooks announced at COMPUTEX 2026

There’s been much ado about the NVIDIA RTX Spark. By now, you’ve probably heard a lot about the upcoming reinvention of PCs. But, as a regular consumer, it’s hard to visualize just how this revolution looks like. Thankfully, in NVIDIA’s demo suites, a few manufacturers got to showcase their take on an RTX Spark notebook. And all of them are coming out in the fall.

ASUS ProArt P14 and P16

Lenovo Yoga Pro 9n

Microsoft Surface Laptop Ultra

MSI Prestige N16 Flip AI+

Unfortunately, none of these brands could share comprehensive details about their laptops beyond a promise for raw power. All of these models aren’t the final version yet.

However, just from what we can tell, these notebooks do feel different from the standard fare of laptops today. For one, they are deceptively heavier. Though all of the OEMs promise a much thinner profile, they’re either packing a lot of tech inside or are using denser materials for their chassis. But again, these are engineering units, so who knows how heavy these things will actually be?

Secondly, based on NVIDIA’s demos, they can do a lot of heavy lifting. NVIDIA says that these superchips are meant for developers and creators, but gamers will also find joy in their performance. DLSS 4.5, in particular, feels like a true revolution in terms of graphics.

Thankfully, fall isn’t too far away. If you can wait, the next evolution of PCs is just around the corner.
