The ASUS Zenbook Pro 14 Duo has a better screen than the HP 250 G10 for general use, gaming and AI, engineering and design, software development, and content creation.
The ASUS ZenBook Pro 14 Duo offers vivid colors and sharp details due to its high-resolution panel and brightness, making it excellent for both general tasks and demanding engineering or design work which benefits from its expansive color gamut. However, gamers may find the refresh rate lacking for fast-paced visual clarity, which is paramount in gaming and 3D applications. In contrast, the HP 250 G10's lower resolution and brightness result in less impressive visuals across the board, and its color range doesn't meet the high standards required for professional creative work, nor does it have the refresh rate needed for gaming.

"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."

"The HP 250 G10 is a decent budget device that surprises us with its high CPU frequencies under load. Still, our configuration has a Core i5-1335U which doesn’t require significant cooling, if choose a 28W P-series processor, maybe the situation with the clocks could be different. If you want to play some casual game after work, a memory in dual-channel is a must because it increases greatly the iGPU performance."
