The Snapdragon X processors have mostly been found in laptops so far, but Asus is trying something different. The company just released the Asus VM441 in India, and it’s an all-in-one (AiO) desktop built around the ARM-based Snapdragon X chip.
Asus VM441 AiO Specifications
The idea is to offer a basic, quiet computer for a home office or living room. Because the Snapdragon chip doesn’t generate as much heat as typical desktop processors, Asus managed to keep the computer’s profile pretty thin.
It features a 23.8-inch 1080p touchscreen with standard specs, 300 nits of brightness, and 100% sRGB color coverage. It sits on a simple metal stand that lets you adjust the tilt, and the whole machine comes in a plain white finish.
Under the hood, it has an 8-core Snapdragon X processor, 16GB of LPDDR5X RAM, and either 512GB or 1TB of PCIe 4.0 storage. Since it has the Qualcomm NPU built-in (hitting 45 TOPS), it qualifies as a Copilot Plus PC.
In practical terms, that just means it can handle some local AI tasks, like blurring your background on video calls or filtering out microphone noise, without slowing down the main processor.
The port situation is decent for a home PC. On the back, you get an HDMI port, an Ethernet jack, and three USB-A ports. There is also a USB-C port and a headphone jack on the side where they are easier to reach.
For video calls, there is a 5-megapixel camera that supports Windows Hello facial login and includes a physical privacy slider. Asus also throws in a wireless mouse and keyboard, plus a copy of Microsoft Office Home 2024.
For wireless connectivity, it features Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth 5.3. The VM441 ships with the Single Language edition of Windows 11 Home.
Pricing and Availability
The Asus VM441 is available now in India. The 512GB model costs ₹1,01,990, and the 1TB version is ₹1,11,990. You can buy it online through Amazon, Flipkart, or the Asus website, as well as in physical stores like Croma.
