The ASUS ZenBook Pro 14 Duo offers superior performance for engineering tasks, 3D rendering, and machine learning, with a high-quality display that excels in color accuracy, all packed in a lightweight body. However, it's more expensive and might be less portable due to its smaller screen size compared to the HP Envy x360 15". The HP model, while more budget-friendly and featuring a larger display, does not match the ASUS's processing power or screen quality and is slightly heavier. If optimal performance and a top-tier display for creative and engineering work are crucial, and cost is not the main concern, the ASUS is the better option. Give Feedback

"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."

"Despite its good looks, stellar webcam and comfortable keyboard, the Envy x360 15 is hard to recommend because of its dim, 16:9 display. If the display isn't an issue for you, just be sure to wait for a good sale price. Otherwise, a more modern two-in-one with a 16:10 display such as the Dell Inspiron 16 2-in-1 or Lenovo Yoga 7i 16 provides a larger workspace without adding much to the size and weight of the system."
