ASUS ProArt P16: Power and Portability for Creators on the Move

If you’re a creator, chances are your “desk” changes by the day: a café table, a client’s lounge, the passenger seat of a parked car. That means you're not just buying a laptop, you’re looking for a machine that can keep up with real life. The problem? Most laptops aren’t built for that kind of hustle.

Weak, reflective screens. Weak battery life. Loud fans in quiet spaces. And unless you're willing to fork out for the top-tier, colour-accurate machines built with niche display tech, you're usually stuck compromising. But if you're still looking, you don’t need to anymore.

The new ASUS ProArt P16 H7606 has landed in South Africa. Built for creators who don’t want to choose between performance, portability and practicality.

Power That Keeps Up with Your Creative Flow

When you’re juggling video edits, 3D renders, or AI-assisted workflows, speed and reliability aren’t just nice-to-haves, they’re essentials. The ASUS ProArt P16 H7606 packs a serious punch with its AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 processor paired with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 GPU. This combo handles demanding creative software smoothly, whether you’re editing 4K footage or working on complex graphic designs.

Plus, the 16-inch 4K OLED touchscreen offers precise colour accuracy, so what you see on screen is exactly what you get. That’s a crucial detail when every shade counts and every pixel matters.

In short: it’s a laptop made to keep up with the intensity and detail your work demands, wherever you are.

Smarter Tools for a Smoother Creative Process

Creativity works best when executed well. It’s also about having the right tools to bring your ideas to life without getting bogged down in logistics. That’s where ASUS’s AI-powered software like MuseTree and StoryCube come in. MuseTree helps you brainstorm and visualise concepts, giving your creativity a fresh spark when you’re facing a blank page or complex projects.

StoryCube makes managing your digital assets easier than ever. No more hunting through endless folders to find that perfect shot or audio clip: it categorises, searches, and retrieves your files quickly so you can focus on creating rather than organising.

These smart tools help keep your workflow smooth and your ideas flowing, whether you’re on the go or settled in your favourite creative space.

Built to Go Wherever Creativity Takes You

As a creator, you’re rarely tied to a desk. You’re out capturing moments, meeting clients, or finding inspiration in unexpected places. The ASUS ProArt P16 understands this need for mobility without compromise.

Weighing just 2.2 kg and housed in a magnesium alloy chassis, it strikes the perfect balance between being lightweight and tough. This laptop meets U.S. military-grade durability standards, so it can handle the bumps and knocks of daily travel.

Plus, with up to 21 hours of battery life, you won’t be hunting for an outlet halfway through your day. Whether you’re working from a sunlit studio or a busy café, this laptop is designed to keep up with your pace, letting you create wherever the moment strikes.

Connectivity That Keeps Your Workflow Moving

When you’re juggling multiple devices and large files, seamless connectivity is essential. The ASUS ProArt P16 is equipped with ultra-fast USB4 Type-C ports delivering speeds up to 40 Gbps, so transferring heavy video files or large design assets is quick and hassle-free.

It also includes HDMI 2.1 for easy connection to external displays, perfect for presentations or expanded editing screens, and a full-size SD Express 7.0 card reader that lets you offload photos and videos straight from your camera without adapters.
