Zenbook DUO

For the past 4+ years, I have been using the first generation Zenbook Duo laptop that had the second screen that was much smaller and built into the top of the keyboard when the keyboard and both screens formed a one-piece laptop. This model took some getting used to due to its flat keyboard style and position of the trackpad compared to the old model, but having the large second screen made up for that. The laptop is simply gorgeous. The 3K OLED screens image quality are perfect and the flexibility in positioning the screens to how you want to use them can't be beat by any other laptop out there right now. The laptop is fast, and MUCH lighter than the old Zenbook Duo I had. I was surprised at how light the whole thing was with two screens and a keyboard nicely stacked and docked together. The 120Hz monitors have nice, smooth motion during video and even window animations compared to a 60Hz. The 32GB of RAM and 1TB hard drive are more than adequate for a powerful laptop like this. I do wish it came with Windows 11 Pro instead of Home though. As you can see in my image, I opted to use my screens stacked and I attached a dual-monitor mount to the top monitor so I have a total of four monitors on the small desk I use this laptop on when I am not using my desktop PC. The USB4 port on the laptop allowed me to attach a hub with another USB4 port on it, which I attached the dual monitors to for the two additional displays. This setup helps me mimic my desktop setup where I also have four displays. Since I don't move this laptop around much or travel with it, I opted to swap out the keyboard with a Logitech MX Keys Mini keyboard since it fit better on my desk, wasn't as flat as the Asus, and didn't have the trackpad since I prefer to use a mouse (a Logi MX Master 3S). The setup is now exactly what I wanted. This purchase was well worth the money for this laptop. It is a fantastic upgrade from my old Zenbook Duo. Five stars all the way.

The ASUS Zenbook Duo UX8406 is not just a laptop; it’s a game-changer that redefines what portable computing can be. With its innovative dual 14-inch 3K OLED touchscreens, powerful Intel Core Ultra processors, and a sleek, versatile design, this laptop is a dream for multitaskers, creators, and professionals alike. Intel Core Ultra 9 285H processor with an AI Boost NPU, 32GB of LPDDR5x RAM, and a 1TB PCIe 4.0 SSD, handled everything I threw at it—from video editing to light gaming—without breaking a sweat. The Intel Arc graphics provide a surprising punch for creative tasks, though this isn’t a gaming rig. The laptop’s AI capabilities shine in tasks like real-time video effects and optimized power management, making it a forward-thinking choice for the AI-driven future. Pros: Dual 14-inch 3K OLED touchscreens are gorgeous and versatile Powerful Intel Core Ultra 9 with AI capabilities Impressive battery life for a dual-screen device Detachable keyboard and stylus enhance flexibility Sturdy build with a clever kickstand Cons: Speakers lack depth Slightly heavier than single-screen ultraportables (but worth every extra for the productivity!) Reflective screens can be tricky in bright light (I use Matte screen protectors and this is a great addition) This is my everyday laptop for work and for home. I have a separate gaming pc with an RTX GPU. That said, this can run GTA V Enhanced no problem and even Stalker 2 at low settings. This by far is Asus's best creation so far for productivity yet.

The 2025 version of this laptop comes with the Ultra 9 285H CPU, which was worth the wait. There are a ton of YouTube video reviews, so I will not go into all of the details - you should definitely watch them first, but here are my pros and cons: Pros: You can use it like a regular laptop, and it is totally stable and the keyboard is *great*. The OLED screens are beautiful and bright (though reflective in bright light). The vertical mode is super stable and easy to get used to. Moving apps between screens is simple, and I have had no problems at all. In "standard" mode, I almost never hear the fans, even with multiple programs running. The system uses a small 65W power brick...any 65W or higher PD brick will be fine. The premium body is not a fingerprint magnet. Battery life seems good, but I have not used it too much without AC Comes with the active pen, but I have no use for it The MyAsus application is very good, and puts the system controls in one place Cons: Heavier than your usual 14" laptop, but you have 2 screens :-) Two Thunderbolt 4 ports - why not TB 5? The keyboard battery life when removed from the body seems a bit short when the backlight is on The CPU can take more power, but it is limited in this machine to prevent it from throttling too much Battery life is limited due to the two screens, but that is to be expected Why not Win 11 Professional instead of Home for a premium device? There is only 1 M.2 slot for storage, which is a bummer Overall, this is one of the best machines I have ever used. Applications are quick, and I am never waiting for something to respond. This is NOT a gaming machine, regardless of what you might hear. The iGPU is not the best that Intel has to offer, and the NPU for AI is weaker than most - but for what it is meant to do, it excels. This is a business laptop dream - if you multi-task a lot, edit multiple documents at once, etc., it is perfect. Did I mention how great the keyboard is? :-) Highly recommended! R
