The ASUS ZenBook Pro 14 Duo, with its OLED screen, superior brightness, and higher color gamut coverage, is ideal for tasks requiring precision in color and image detail, making it suitable for creative professionals. It also features a touchscreen and a secondary display, enhancing multitasking capabilities. The Eluktronics RP-15, on the other hand, sports a more powerful graphics card like the Nvidia RTX 4060 and a slightly larger screen with a higher refresh rate, which is more optimized for gaming and intensive graphical tasks. Weight-wise, the ZenBook is lighter and thus more portable than the RP-15, making it a better companion for on-the-go usage. Both laptops have similar battery life and are in a similar price range, so the final decision should hinge on whether portability and color-sensitive work or gaming performance and higher graphics processing is your priority.

The ASUS ZenBook Pro 14 Duo is very good for general use, while the Eluktronics RP-15 is good.
The ASUS ZenBook Pro 14 Duo is favored for general use due to its superior OLED screen, higher resolution, and better color coverage, which is great for vibrant displays and detailed work, along with more RAM for multitasking and a lighter, thinner design for easier portability. In contrast, the Eluktronics RP-15, while also good for general use, has a larger screen but less sophisticated IPS panel and lower color accuracy, and with its higher weight and thickness, it sacrifices some portability, despite offering a dedicated graphics unit that makes it more suitable for graphics-intensive tasks.

The ASUS Zenbook Pro 14 Duo has a better screen than the Eluktronics RP-15 for general use, engineering and design, software development, and content creation.
If you prioritize a vibrant display for activities like browsing, watching videos, or document editing, both the ASUS ZenBook Pro 14 Duo and Eluktronics RP-15 have high-resolution, bright screens with panels that deliver crisp and clear images. For engineering and design work where color accuracy is vital, these laptops offer wide color gamuts ensuring that the colors you see on screen are true to life and consistent. However, if gaming or 3D rendering is your main focus, the lower refresh rates on these laptops might not provide the smoothest visual experience which is particularly noticeable in fast-paced scenarios where screen responsiveness is key.

How the ASUS ZenBook Pro 14 Duo and the Eluktronics RP-15 compare to other laptops
"The Zenbook Pro 14 Duo OLED is a well-tuned instrument for content creators, excelling at a range of general office tasks as well as tasks that require a little more grunt like encoding and 3D rendering. The big attraction is the laptop’s dual displays. They’re the best ones we’ve used in an Asus Zenbook Duo laptop to date with a spate of year-on-year improvements that make the visuals more striking and the cross-screen integration easier than ever before."
"To conclude, I’m genuinely impressed with Eluktronics and what they have been able to deliver with the RP-15. You see this is all about maximizing performance, cooling, and giving users the most flexible I/O, and then wrapping it into a chassis that doesn’t feel super cheap. Let’s also not forget the price point, I think they have really nailed it in that department."
