The ASUS Zenbook Duo has a unique dual-screen feature that may enhance multitasking for creative or business tasks. It also offers a higher resolution screen and is touchscreen-enabled, which the Dell Latitude does not have. The ASUS's graphics are better suited for light gaming, creative applications, and some engineering uses. However, the Dell Latitude has a longer battery life, making it more suitable for long work sessions away from power sources, and it's slightly lighter, adding to its portability. If budget is a primary concern, the Dell offers a more budget-friendly option while still delivering solid performance for general use and professional applications, albeit with a standard single-screen experience. If you require more advanced multitasking and are interested in premium features like a touchscreen and don't mind a shorter battery life, the ASUS could be the better option. Each has a good build, backlit keyboard, and several USB-C ports, but the Dell offers an advantage with available RAM slots for future upgrades. Make the choice based on which features align best with your specific needs and budget considerations. Give Feedback

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."
