If you prioritize a higher refresh rate and better performance for intensive gaming and engineering tasks despite a heavier build, the HP Omen 17 with its powerful graphics card is a solid option; however, it is less portable and has a shorter battery life. On the other hand, the ASUS ZenBook Pro Duo 15 offers a high-resolution OLED touchscreen with vibrant colors and dual-screen functionality, making it well-suited for creative professionals who may also benefit from its color accuracy and portability, although at a higher price and with slightly less gaming performance compared to the HP Omen.

The ASUS ZenBook Pro Duo 15 is very good for general use, while the HP Omen 17 is good.
The ASUS ZenBook Pro Duo 15 is very good for general use due to its high-quality OLED touchscreen, significant amount of RAM for multitasking, and strong CPU, but it has limited portability and moderate battery life. The HP Omen 17, while still good for general use with a capable CPU and ample battery life, is less portable and has an inferior screen quality compared to the ASUS, but offers better heat management and quieter operating noise.

The HP Omen 17 is excellent for gaming and AI, while the ASUS ZenBook Pro Duo 15 is good.
The ASUS ZenBook Pro Duo 15 is praised for gaming and 3D largely due to its powerful Nvidia RTX 3070 Ti GPU and OLED screen, which, while capped at a 60Hz refresh rate, offers excellent color accuracy and contrast for immersive visuals. On the other hand, the HP Omen 17, with a superior Nvidia RTX 4080 GPU and a higher 165Hz screen refresh rate on an IPS display, provides a smoother visual experience in fast-paced games, although with somewhat less color range and precision than the OLED panel on the ASUS.

Jared Newman | August 2021
"Benchmarks aside, the Asus ZenBook Pro Duo is hard to compare with other PCs. Its closest competition may be a multi-monitor desktop, or a laptop with an attached travel monitor. The Pro Duo is more portable and versatile than either of those options, especially with the software tools Asus has thrown on top. For a certain niche of artists, media creators, and gamers, all that might add up to something special, even if it’s unattainable for the rest of us."

"The HP Omen 17 (2022) gaming laptop has a stylish case and hardware with lots of potential. The HP Omen 17 is a fairly unobtrusive gaming laptop. A material combination of plastic and metal gives the case a high stability and a quality surface feel. The unspectacular design is pleasing and is hardly indicative of the laptop's high performance potential. The Intel Core i7-12700H in particular is able to perform well once again. The Nvidia GeForce RTX 3070 Ti is also strong in the gaming notebook. Demanding games run smoothly in Full HD resolution. The HP Omen 17 is a good gaming laptop that delivers partly excellent performance. But even at this performance level, cheaper alternatives are available."
