Considering your needs will help determine whether the ASUS ROG Strix G15 or ASUS ZenBook Pro 14 Duo is the better fit. If you're looking for a laptop that offers high performance for gaming and can handle engineering software, the ROG Strix G15 with its dedicated Nvidia graphics card might be suitable, although it's heavier and has a shorter battery life. On the other hand, if you prioritize a higher quality display for creative work, better battery life, and more portability, the ZenBook Pro 14 Duo comes with an OLED screen and a lighter build, but its integrated graphics are less suitable for intensive gaming or 3D work. Both have ample storage and are similarly priced, but the ZenBook also offers twice the RAM for multitasking. Give Feedback

The ASUS ZenBook Pro 14 Duo is very good for general use, while the ASUS ROG Strix G15 is good.
The ASUS ZenBook Pro 14 Duo is rated higher for general use than the ASUS ROG Strix G15 due to its superior screen quality, double the RAM for smoother multitasking, and a more advanced CPU, which results in better all-around performance. While the ZenBook also offers a more portable build and longer battery life, making it ideal for on-the-go users, the ROG Strix G15, despite its gaming-oriented design, may lack in portability and battery life but offers a larger screen and a dedicated GPU, which could be more suitable for gaming or graphically intensive tasks.

The ASUS ZenBook Pro 14 Duo is very good for engineering and design, while the ASUS ROG Strix G15 is good.
The ASUS ZenBook Pro 14 Duo outperforms the ASUS ROG Strix G15 in engineering and design due to its superior OLED screen with higher resolution, touchscreen capability, and significantly better color accuracy, alongside more RAM and a potent Intel i7 CPU. While the ROG Strix G15 has a robust AMD Ryzen 9 CPU and a dedicated Nvidia GPU, its IPS display and lower RAM make it less ideal than the ZenBook Pro 14 Duo, which also offers greater portability and quieter operating noise.

The ASUS Zenbook Pro 14 Duo has a better screen than the ASUS ROG Strix G15 for general use, gaming and AI, engineering and design, content creation, and software development.
For general use, the ASUS ZenBook Pro 14 Duo's higher resolution and brightness make it superior, providing a crisper and more vivid display. When it comes to engineering and design, the ZenBook's wider color gamuts give it an advantage for professionals needing color accuracy.

Marius Schell | February 2021
"The ASUS ROG Strix G15 is a successful high-performance 15-inch laptop. The Asus ROG Strix impresses with an elaborate design and fast hardware. The latter can unleash its potential well in the large 15-inch case and achieve a decent performance boost compared to the previous generation. Especially the stunning 300 Hz display as well as the RTX 3070 and its generous TDP give gamers their money's worth. Asus didn't neglect seemingly small details, either, such as the keyboard and the maintenance options. The ROG Strix G15 offers a lot of pure performance and excellent workmanship in a 15-inch format, but connectivity leaves something to be desired."

"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."
