The ASUS ROG Strix G15 Advantage Edition tends to be slightly more expensive but caters to gamers and those needing a powerful GPU for tasks like 3D modeling and machine learning, with a high refresh rate display but heavier build and shorter battery life. The ZenBook Pro 14 Duo has a higher-quality OLED touchscreen, larger storage, and more RAM, making it a better fit for creative professionals who benefit from top-notch screen colors and high resolution, with an added gain in portability, but lacks gaming-oriented GPU capabilities and has a shorter battery life. Consider what you value—gaming performance and longer unplugged time with the ROG Strix or portability and a superior screen with the ZenBook Pro. Give Feedback

The ASUS ROG Strix G15 Advantage Edition has a better screen than the ASUS Zenbook Pro 14 Duo for gaming and AI, while the ASUS Zenbook Pro 14 Duo has a better screen for general use, engineering and design, content creation, and software development.
When selecting a laptop for general use, the quality of the screen is largely influenced by its resolution, panel type, and brightness, all features where the ASUS ROG Strix G15 Advantage Edition performs well, offering clear images and vibrant colors, but the ASUS ZenBook Pro 14 Duo goes a step further with even higher resolution and brightness, making it superior for demanding visual tasks. For engineering and design, the importance of accurate color reproduction becomes paramount, and both laptops are equipped with panels that cover wide color gamuts, ensuring precise and consistent colors, necessary for professional design work. However, for gaming and 3D applications, the ASUS laptops' screens are less suitable due to their lower refresh rates, which can limit the smoothness of motion and responsiveness, key elements for an immersive gaming experience.

"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 Zenbook Pro 14 Duo OLED is a well-tuned instrument for content creators, excelling at a range of general office tasks as well as tasks that require a little more grunt like encoding and 3D rendering. The big attraction is the laptop’s dual displays. They’re the best ones we’ve used in an Asus Zenbook Duo laptop to date with a spate of year-on-year improvements that make the visuals more striking and the cross-screen integration easier than ever before."
