For general use, the Lenovo V15's lower price and adequate performance may be sufficient, but the ASUS ZenBook Duo offers higher performance and unique features like a touchscreen and second display, which might justify the higher price. The ZenBook Duo has a brighter and more colorful screen, better for creative work. However, if portability is key, the Lenovo V15 is slightly lighter. If battery life is a priority, both have a similar performance. For gaming or demanding tasks, the ZenBook's superior screen refresh rate and GPU could provide better experiences, while the V15's hardware is more modest, suitable for lighter tasks. Give Feedback

ASUS Zenbook Duo (2024) (Intel i7-1195G7, Iris Xe G7 , 16 GB | 512 GB)
"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."
"The strengths of the Lenovo V15 G2 AMD lie in its expandability of the RAM and allowing you to use two SSDs, in its performance that goes beyond everyday applications thanks to AMD's hexa-core CPU and Vega-7 iGPU, in its good keyboard, and its relatively robust case. In addition, the battery life of the office laptop is also acceptable, and the device stays cool and relatively quiet."
