The ASUS Zenbook Duo (2024) has a unique dual-screen design which can be great for multitasking, yet it has slightly less battery life and is less portable due to its design. It excels in general use with a high-resolution touchscreen and is very good for tasks that don't require intense graphics. On the other hand, the HP Omen 15, being somewhat less expensive, offers a high-performance gaming experience with a dedicated graphics card suitable for gaming, 3D rendering, and engineering tasks; it also has better portability and more storage but lacks a high-resolution screen. Choose the Zenbook Duo if you value innovative features for productivity and a sharper display over gaming performance, or the Omen for gaming, graphics-intensive tasks, and better battery life.

How the ASUS Zenbook Duo (2024) and the HP Omen 15 compare to other laptops
"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."
"We consider around 1,260 Euros (~$1530) for a Ryzen 7 4800H, a GeForce RTX 2060, a 512 GB SSD and 16 GB dual-channel RAM to be a good offer that appeals to price-conscious gamers. Very high details are rarely a problem in the native resolution of 1,920 x 1,080. Buyers will also be spoiled with a top-notch battery life that even beats most other notebook classes. If HP now improves the speed of the WLAN module, the stability of the case and the repeatedly criticized picture quality, the competition will have to dress extra warmly."
