Yes, the ASUS X1404ZA comes with a universal power adapter that supports an input voltage range of 100-240V. This means it can be used internationally without any issues, as long as you have the appropriate plug adapter for the country you’re visiting. https://www.asus.com/laptops/for-home/vivobook/asus-vivobook-14-x1404/techspec/
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.The included power supply is 120v 60Hz but you should be able to obtain the proper power supply for almost any country. Asus will likely have their own variant. It is not a switching power supply; the plug is fixed, unlike many USB chargers which can have modular prongs.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.The advantage of laptops is that the power supply is separate, so at worst, you just have to get one that matches your area of use and provides the correct output. I always recommend a second one anyway--if you lose or damage the one you got, you are still able to fully use the computer. Also good if you go to and from two locations with regularity (like work and home).
