ASUS has introduced an updated series of ASUS BR laptops focused on education. Designed with the needs of modern classrooms in mind, these devices combine enhanced performance, durability and innovative features to empower students and teachers in both classroom and hybrid learning environments.
The new ASUS BR series of notebooks, which includes the BR1204CTA, BR1204FTA, BR1104CTA and BR1104FTA, is designed to meet the needs of students, teachers and administrators in secondary schools. With their reliability and versatility, these laptops enhance classroom learning by supporting a variety of teaching methods, simplifying administration tasks, and providing students with tools for creativity and collaboration.
The devices are powered by the latest Intel processors, support artificial intelligence features such as Microsoft Copilot, and feature a smart, learner-centered design that enhances digital learning.
Durability combined with innovation
ASUS BR Series notebooks combine performance and reliability for everyday learning. Equipped with the new Intel N150 and N250 processors, a durable rubber bumper, and a waterproof keyboard, these laptops are designed for active classroom use and are highly reliable, having been tested to MIL-STD-810 military-industrial standard.
With the integration of Microsoft Copilot artificial intelligence, the BR series is an excellent tool that simplifies administrative tasks for teachers and offers students real-time support for assignments and teamwork. The BR1204FTA and BR1104FTA feature a 360-degree touchscreen with optional stylus, so they can easily switch between laptop and tablet modes, making them ideal for creativity and collaboration.
Reliability and ergonomics
The latest ASUS BR series models are designed with school life in mind to ensure long-lasting performance in an active learning environment. Each laptop undergoes rigorous testing to meet the MIL-STD-810H military standard, including 10 consecutive drops from a height of 130 cm to various parts of the case to simulate real-world conditions. The devices also withstand more than 10,000 lid opening and closing cycles, ensuring reliable operation even when used frequently by active students.
The laptops feature touchscreen displays up to 12.2 inches in size with a 16:10 aspect ratio, protected by durable Corning® Gorilla® Glass for increased durability and added scratch resistance. The waterproof keyboard can withstand spills of up to 405 cc of liquid.
Additionally, the optional ASUS Antimicrobial Guard coating protects surfaces by inhibiting the growth of harmful bacteria by more than 99%, keeping them clean and hygienic all day long. This protection creates a safer and healthier learning environment, making these laptops ideal for today’s educational institutions.
A new level of performance for modern learning
Equipped with Intel N150 and N250 processors, ASUS BR series notebooks deliver superior multitasking and performance for intensive classroom and distance learning. These processors support simultaneous tasks such as streaming online lessons, running interactive applications, and completing tasks in collaboration tools such as Google Workspace or Microsoft 365.
The laptops have a battery life of up to 12 hours, allowing students to use them throughout the school day without needing to recharge, even during extracurricular activities or field trips. Students can continuously watch educational videos, run interactive applications, and complete collaborative projects.
For teachers, the improved computing power enables a seamless transition between tasks such as creating curriculum, administering real-time tests, and monitoring student progress through learning management systems. These improvements enable teachers and students alike to focus on what matters most – fostering creativity, collaboration, and improved learning outcomes.
Innovative tools for learning and collaboration
ASUS BR series laptops come with Microsoft Copilot, an AI-powered assistant that facilitates the learning process, helps you create syllabi and test assignments, and supports real-time collaboration. The laptops have a dedicated Copilot key that opens up endless possibilities for research, which helps students develop and makes learning more effective and interesting.
With 360° screen rotation and optional stylus support, models such as the BR1204FTA and BR1104FTA are ideal for collaboration and creativity, allowing students to easily move from group discussions to individual work and creative exploration.
To further support the modern learning environment, the BR series offers a wide range of ports, including USB-C and HDMI®, which allow for easy connection of projectors, monitors, and other peripherals. This adaptability allows students and teachers to fully engage in hybrid and traditional learning environments, overcoming the technological challenges of today’s dynamic world.
Simplified maintenance and environmental friendliness
ASUS BR series laptops are built with modular components that make maintenance simple and efficient. Key parts such as the battery, keyboard, and drive can be replaced in minutes thanks to non-drop-out screws, eliminating the risk of losing small parts during repairs.
The user-friendly design minimizes disruption to the learning process, allowing system administrators-or even teachers in resource-limited schools-to quickly handle maintenance and reduce downtime.
ASUS’s commitment to sustainability is reflected in its energy-efficient design, which reduces power consumption while maintaining high performance. With an extended lifespan, these laptops will benefit schools in the long term while also contributing to their environmental goals.
