If your focus is gaming or 3D rendering, the ASUS ROG Strix G15 has a dedicated GPU and high refresh rate, making it well-suited for those tasks; however, it is bulkier and heavier. The ASUS Zenbook Duo, with its dual screens and lighter weight, is better for multitasking and portability but not as powerful for intensive tasks. The Zenbook Duo also offers a higher resolution touchscreen, which is advantageous for detailed work and entertainment, but the Strix G15 will likely outperform it in battery life during demanding use. Both are capable for general use, but your specific needs—portability versus performance—should guide your decision. Give Feedback

How the ASUS ROG Strix G15 Advantage Edition and the ASUS Zenbook Duo (2024) compare to other laptops
"The Asus ROG Strix G15, as the first in a line of "AMD Advantage"-branded notebooks, is a statement that yes, you can get a premium AMD gaming notebook. Maybe you can't have it all, but you can get pretty close. The ROG Strix G15's combination of the AMD Ryzen 5900HX and Radeon RX 6800M, as well as other technologies that take advantage of them, make a potent, thin gaming machine. Powerful Dolby Atmos speakers and long battery life when you aren't gaming are nice bonuses."
"The Asus ZenBook Duo's second screen is like the Apple Touch Bar, but better. Most would agree that having two screens instead of one can really boost productivity and the ZenBook Duo is no different in this regard. It's tough going back to just one screen after becoming accustomed to spacious dual-screen setups. For a laptop form factor, however, users will have to accept some compromises. Firstly, weight is the most obvious drawback as the system is several hundred grams heavier than a regular ZenBook 14. Additionally, colors on the second screen will not be as vivid as the main display."
