If you prioritize a lighter, more portable laptop with a midrange price, the ASUS Zenbook Duo (2024) is suitable for general use with decent performance and good battery life. For those requiring higher performance for engineering, 3D rendering, or machine learning, the ASUS ZenBook Pro Duo 15, while pricier and heavier, offers significantly better performance with its high-end processor and dedicated graphics card, plus superior screen quality, including color accuracy and resolution, at the cost of a bit less battery life and portability. Both have unique dual-screen setups and are well-suited for multitasking. Give Feedback

NotebookCheck

Allen Ngo | May 2020
"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."

Jared Newman | August 2021
"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."
