The ASUS ROG Strix G15 Advantage Edition is ideal for those looking for high performance in gaming or heavy-duty tasks with robust graphics capabilities, although it's heavier and may have shorter battery life.

The ASUS ROG Strix G15 Advantage Edition has a better screen than the ASUS Zenbook Pro Duo 15 for gaming and AI, while the ASUS Zenbook Pro Duo 15 has a better screen for general use, engineering and design, content creation, and software development.
When considering the ASUS ROG Strix G15 for general use, its screen offers a balance of resolution and brightness, but the lack of top-tier color accuracy might not be ideal for professional design work, despite its adequate performance for everyday tasks. The ASUS ZenBook Pro Duo 15 shines in general use and engineering with its high-resolution display and wide color gamut, providing precise color representation which is critical for detailed design work. However, for gaming and 3D applications, both laptops may disappoint due to their lower refresh rates, which can affect the smoothness of rapidly moving visuals despite their adequate resolution and panel type.

The ASUS ROG Strix G15 Advantage Edition, with an AMD graphics card, offers a high screen refresh rate suitable for smooth gaming, while the ASUS ZenBook Pro Duo 15 stands out with its Nvidia graphics card and an OLED screen for vibrant quality, but has a lower screen refresh rate which may not be as fluid in fast-paced games. Both have strong CPUs, but for the very best in gaming and 3D, the better GPU on the ZenBook Pro Duo 15 and its superior screen quality are tradeoffs against the Strix’s higher refresh rate.

How the ASUS ROG Strix G15 Advantage Edition and the ASUS ZenBook Pro Duo 15 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."
"Benchmarks aside, the Asus ZenBook Pro Duo is hard to compare with other PCs. Its closest competition may be a multi-monitor desktop, or a laptop with an attached travel monitor. The Pro Duo is more portable and versatile than either of those options, especially with the software tools Asus has thrown on top. For a certain niche of artists, media creators, and gamers, all that might add up to something special, even if it’s unattainable for the rest of us."
