At BETT 2025, ASUS announced the worldwide debut of its newest laptops, the ASUS BR series, which are geared towards education. In order to empower K–12 Education and teachers in both in-classroom and hybrid learning contexts, these devices combine improved performance, robust durability, and innovative features. They were designed to meet the changing demands of contemporary classrooms.

ASUS BR1204CTA, BR1204FTA, BR1104CTA, and BR1104FTA are the latest versions in the BR series, designed for K–12 Education, teachers, and IT managers. These computers enable a range of educational methods, ease IT administration, and encourage creativity and teamwork by prioritising reliability and adaptability. Digital learning is about to be upgraded for the next generation with new Intel CPUs, AI-powered capabilities like Microsoft Copilot, and careful, student-centered designs.

Durability and hygiene for modern classrooms 

With their ability to endure the rigours of classroom life, the most recent ASUS BR-series models guarantee enduring performance in dynamic learning settings. Ten consecutive drops from a height of 130 cm onto six sides and four edges, imitating real-world accidents, are part of the rigorous testing that every laptop goes through to meet MIL-STD-810H military specifications. Additionally, the devices withstand more than 10,000 hinge cycles, ensuring dependable operation even under the heavy use of energetic kids.

Strong Corning Gorilla Glass protects the laptops‘ large up to 12.2-inch touchscreen displays, which have a taller 16:10 aspect ratio for an extended workspace. This provides increased durability and scratch resistance. By avoiding downtime due to accidents, the spill-resistant keyboards are designed to withstand up to 405cc of liquid exposure.

Additionally, high-touch surfaces are protected by ASUS Antimicrobial Guard technology, an optional feature that keeps surfaces clean and hygienic all day long by preventing the growth of dangerous bacteria by more than 99%. Because of this functionality, learning environments are safer and healthier, which makes these laptops perfect for contemporary classrooms.

Upgraded performance for modern learning 

With the help of the new Intel Processor N150 and N250, the ASUS BR series offers improved efficiency and multitasking for demanding classroom tasks and distance learning. These processors are capable of handling multiple activities at once, including running interactive apps, streaming online courses, and finishing assignments in online collaboration platforms like Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace.

Even during extracurricular events or field trips, kids may work for the full school day without needing to recharge with the laptops‘ 12-hour battery life. There are no disruptions as students stream instructional videos, use interactive apps, and finish group projects.

For teachers, the increased processing capacity makes it possible to switch between jobs like lesson planning, administering tests in real time, and using learning management systems to track students’ progress with ease. Through improved creativity, teamwork, and learning outcomes, these improvements enable educators and learners to remain focused on what really matters.

Innovative tools for learning and collaboration 

The ASUS BR series incorporates Microsoft Copilot, an AI-powered assistant that supports real-time communication, creates quizzes, and optimises teaching workflows. It also comes with a dedicated one-tap Copilot key for infinite exploration. Learning becomes more effective and interesting as a result, and the educational experience of the learner is improved.

Models like as the BR1204FTA and BR1104FTA, which have 360° hinges and optional stylus support, are perfect for encouraging teamwork and creativity since they let students move fluidly between group discussions, solo work, and artistic exploration.

With features like USB-C and HDMI connections, the ASUS BR series offers extensive I/O options to better enhance contemporary learning environments and guarantee seamless interaction with projectors, monitors, and other peripherals. This flexibility overcomes technology obstacles in dynamic learning environments by enabling both students and teachers to participate fully in hybrid and traditional learning setups.

Simplified sustainability and IT maintenance

The modular design of the ASUS BR-series laptops facilitates easy and effective maintenance. With captive screws, you can change important components like the battery, keyboard, and storage in a matter of minutes, removing the possibility of losing tiny pieces while doing repairs. In schools with limited resources, it user-friendly design guarantees minimal disruption to instruction, enabling educators or IT administrators to promptly manage maintenance and minimise downtime.

ASUS’s dedication to sustainability is evident in the laptops’ energy-efficient designs, which reduce power consumption without sacrificing reliable functionality. The laptops provide schools with long-term value while fulfilling environmental objectives by prolonging the equipment’ lifespan and lowering the frequency of replacements.
