If you're looking for a more affordable and portable option with good battery life for general use that includes unique features like a secondary touchscreen, consider the ASUS Zenbook Duo. It's lighter and has a longer battery life, which is great for mobility and everyday tasks. However, it might not be the best fit for exceptionally demanding applications such as intensive gaming or high-end content creation. On the other hand, if performance in graphics-intensive tasks like 3D rendering, machine learning, or gaming is a priority, the MSI Raider GE67Hx would be a better fit despite its higher price and heavier weight. It has a more powerful processor, a high-end GPU, and a high refresh rate screen, but with these come reduced battery life and portability. Give Feedback

How the ASUS Zenbook Duo (2024) and the MSI Raider GE67Hx 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."
"If you've wanted to dip your toes into PC gaming but can't let go of your console roots, the MSI Raider GE67 HX stakes out an attractive middle ground between the speed and versatility of PC gaming and the comfort and ease of a console. If you can overlook its noisy fans and chintzy touchpad, the Raider provides a powerhouse entertainment experience with an OLED screen that tops most household TVs. It's not cheap, but this gaming machine is more than the sum of its parts."
