ASUS Chromebook Vibe CX34 Flip
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
ASUS Chromebook Vibe CX34 Flip (CX3401FBA-N90274) - 1 Year Local Warranty
A 14-Inch Convertible Chromebook with a Core i7 Processor
The ASUS Chromebook Vibe CX34 Flip (CX3401FBA-N90274) is a 14-inch 2-in-1 convertible ChromeOS laptop, built around a 12th Gen Intel Core i7-1255U processor with 16GB of memory and a 256GB SSD — a noticeably higher-end specification than the entry CX1 and C424MA Chromebooks in our catalogue. A 360-degree hinge lets it fold fully flat into tablet mode or stand in tent mode, and the touchscreen supports an included stylus, so it covers both a full keyboard-and-trackpad workflow and a tablet-style one in the same device.
Not Marketed by ASUS as a "Chromebook Plus" Model
ASUS does not market this specific CX3401FBA 12th Gen Intel configuration under the "Chromebook Plus" branding on its published pages, so we do not claim that certification here. Chromebook Plus is a separate, later Google-defined tier with its own minimum hardware bar and Gemini AI feature set, applied to specific qualifying models; this CX3401FBA generation predates that branding rollout. Its actual specification — a Core i7 processor, 16GB of memory and a fast SSD — is genuinely strong for a Chromebook regardless of the branding, and comfortably exceeds ChromeOS's typical entry-level hardware.
Intel Core i7-1255U: A Genuinely Capable Processor for ChromeOS
The Core i7-1255U is a 12th Gen Intel hybrid processor combining Performance and Efficient cores, 10 cores and 12 threads in total, with boost frequencies up to 4.7 GHz. This is well above what ChromeOS typically needs, and in practice means the CX34 Flip stays responsive under heavier browser workloads — many tabs open at once, video calls running alongside document editing, or Android apps from the Play Store running in the background — more comfortably than an entry-level Celeron-based Chromebook.
14-Inch WUXGA Touchscreen at 144Hz
The display is a 14-inch WUXGA (1920 x 1200) touchscreen in a 16:10 aspect ratio with a 144Hz refresh rate — noticeably smoother for scrolling and for the cloud gaming this model is positioned around than the 60Hz panels on most Chromebooks. The panel has a glossy finish and LED backlighting, and a USI stylus is included in the box for handwriting and annotation directly on the touchscreen.
Cloud Gaming Support
ASUS positions the CX34 Flip around cloud gaming services such as NVIDIA GeForce NOW, streamed over the internet rather than rendered locally — this device has no discrete graphics card, so any gaming capability comes entirely from the strength of the internet connection and the cloud service, not from local GPU hardware. For everyday productivity, browsing and video conferencing, the same Core i7 processor and 16GB of memory give it comfortable headroom well beyond gaming use.

Connectivity & Setup
Ports for Displays and Peripherals
Both USB-C 3.2 Gen 2 ports support display output and Power Delivery, so either can charge the laptop or drive an external monitor, alongside a USB-A 3.2 Gen 2 port and an HDMI 2.1 output for a higher-bandwidth external display. A microSD reader lets a memory card be read directly without an adapter.
Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth
Wireless is Wi-Fi 6E (802.11ax), triple band, 2x2, covering the newer 6GHz band alongside the usual 2.4GHz and 5GHz bands where the router supports it, paired with Bluetooth 5.4 for headsets, mice and other peripherals. There is no wired Ethernet port built in on this model.
Signing In with a Google Account
ChromeOS is set up against a Google Account at first boot — a personal account for individual use, or a Google Workspace account for an organisation fleet, which lets an IT administrator manage the device centrally through the Google Admin console.
Using the 360-Degree Hinge and Touchscreen
The hinge folds through laptop, tablet, tent and stand modes without needing to detach anything — tent mode is useful for video calls or media on a desk with the keyboard tucked away, and full tablet mode pairs with the included USI stylus for handwriting or sketching directly on the touchscreen at 144Hz.
Setting Up Cloud Gaming Services
Services such as NVIDIA GeForce NOW run through a browser tab or their own web app rather than a local install, so setup is the same as installing any other app from the Play Store or web — sign in with the relevant account and stream. Performance depends on internet connection quality far more than on the CX34 Flip's own hardware, since the game itself runs on a remote server.

Why This Model Sits Above Our Other Chromebooks
The CX34 Flip's Core i7 processor, 16GB of memory and 256GB SSD put it well ahead of the entry Celeron-based C424MA and CX1 in raw capability, alongside a 144Hz touchscreen and a full 360-degree convertible hinge neither entry model offers. That positions it for users who want a genuinely responsive ChromeOS experience with headroom for many browser tabs, Android apps and cloud gaming, rather than the most economical per-unit fleet price.

Frequently Asked Questions — ASUS CX3401FBA-N90274
Is this a "Chromebook Plus" model?
ASUS does not market this specific 12th Gen Intel CX3401FBA configuration under the Chromebook Plus branding, so we do not claim that certification here. Its actual specification — Core i7, 16GB memory, 256GB SSD — is strong for a Chromebook regardless of the branding question.
Is this a Windows laptop or a ChromeOS device?
It runs ChromeOS, Google's own operating system, not Windows, using the Chrome browser, Google's web apps and Android apps from the Google Play Store.
Can it play PC games locally?
No — there is no discrete graphics card. ASUS positions this model around cloud gaming services like NVIDIA GeForce NOW, which stream the game from a remote server over the internet rather than rendering it on the device itself.
How does the 360-degree hinge work day to day?
It folds through laptop, tablet, tent and stand modes without detaching anything, so switching between typing and tablet or presentation use is a single continuous fold rather than removing a separate keyboard.
Is the stylus included, and do I need to charge it separately?
A USI stylus is included and garages inside the chassis, where it stores conveniently between uses.
Can the memory or storage be upgraded?
No — 16GB of memory is soldered to the board and the 256GB SSD, while an M.2 module, is fitted as the primary and only storage in this configuration; neither is intended for end-user upgrade.
Does it have Ethernet?
No wired Ethernet port is built in. Wireless is Wi-Fi 6E with Bluetooth 5.4, which covers the newer 6GHz band on a compatible router in addition to the standard 2.4GHz and 5GHz bands.
Does it come with a Singapore warranty and a GST invoice?
Yes. Every ASUS Chromebook Vibe CX34 Flip CX3401FBA-N90274 sold by SourceIT comes with local Singapore warranty support and a GST invoice.
