For a balance of performance and portability with a stunning OLED display, the ASUS Vivobook S 15 OLED is a strong choice, especially if you value a high-quality screen for general use and creative tasks. It offers a more vibrant and contrast-rich display, longer battery life, and a sleeker design, making it suitable for on-the-go professionals and students. However, if you require more RAM for multitasking and a secondary touchscreen for increased productivity, the ASUS Zenbook Duo, with its unique dual-screen setup, might be more aligned with your needs, despite its slightly bulkier design and shorter battery life. The Zenbook Duo's additional screen real estate is particularly beneficial for those engaged in engineering tasks or who appreciate the versatility of a touchscreen interface. Give Feedback

"The Asus Vivobook S 15 OLED excels as a capable work machine at an affordable price. It offers commendable performance, thanks to its 12th Gen Intel chip, delivers quality on-screen entertainment with its 15.6-inch OLED display, and can (kind of) get you through a full day of work. Oh, and its special Asus Antibacterial Guard is a nice touch for those who like a clean laptop."

"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."
