ASUS has been demonstrating the concept of “dual-screen laptops” since 2018. From the very first concept machine, Project PRECOG, to the foldable laptop Zenbook 17 Fold OLED that will be unveiled in 2022, “foldable dual-screen laptops” ” This matter has become closer to daily life. This time I went out and got a glimpse of ASUS’ new dual-screen laptop ASUS Zenbook DUO (UX8406). It is an AI laptop with two 14-inch OLED screens. Several of the most trendy elements in recent years are present in this laptop. Inside the laptop!
Five multifunctional modes
From laptop to dual-screen, Zenbook DUO has the following modes to use, including: laptop mode, dual-screen mode, desktop mode, and sharing mode.It can meet the needs of dual-screen enthusiasts and can also meet various multi-tasking usage scenarios across devices.
The laptop mode is what everyone is most familiar with and what a laptop should look like. Keyboard + screen is the most common laptop in the office.
The dual-screen mode is very comfortable, and the field of view feels very wide. The two 14-inch OLEDs meet the needs of multi-tasking tasks.
If you want to use dual screens, you can put an ErgoSense keyboard together and use it together. It also supports ASUS Pen 2.0 sensor stylus.
Desktop mode allows you to display different information on the left and right sides of the screen
Flatten Zenbook DUO 180° and enter the sharing mode, which is suitable for meetings or taking care of children. It allows the person opposite to see the information displayed on the other screen clearly, whether it is to present the content of a presentation or to It is very convenient to play videos for children to watch while working (mistake once more)
By the way, the brightness of the two screens can also be adjusted freely. You can synchronize the brightness of the screens, or make a certain screen brighter.
Body design
On the back of the Zenbook DUO body, there is a stand that can freely adjust the angle. It can be manually adjusted between 40° and 70°, whether you want to stand it up or put the Zenbook DUO as a laptop on the table.
As for structural support, Asus said that the hinge of the integrated stand at the bottom of Zenbook DUO can withstand up to 15 kilograms of pressure, and there are also rubber pads at the bottom of the stand to increase stability during use and typing.
Key specifications
Taking a closer look at the specifications, Zenbook DUO is equipped with up to dual 14-inch 3K 120Hz OLED touch screens, which can expand the workspace to 19.8 inches. The original position of the laptop keyboard is replaced by an OLED screen. In order to maintain thinness, lightness and high performance, ASUS Corresponding adjustments have also been made to the arrangement of the motherboard and the cooling system, such as using a flexible printed circuit board (FPC) instead of coaxial cables, and equipped with dual fans, dual heat pipes, aluminum radiators and Graphene sheets to ensure that the second OLED screen can be maintained at the appropriate temperature to prevent the screen from burning out
In terms of connection ports, there are two Thunderbolt 4, one HDMI 2.1, one USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A, and an audio jack. When I looked at the photos once more while writing this article, I mightn’t help but admire it. It’s impossible to fit it exactly on both sides of the screen. It’s easy to put these ports in, the keyboard is even magnetically attached, and the highlight of the body is the 14-inch OLED screenrrrr
When the laptop is closed, the ErgoSense keyboard can also be stored inside.But without the keyboard, the thickness of Zenbook DUO is regarding 14.6mm, and the weight without the keyboard is regarding 1.35 kg.
It’s also an AI laptop
We have talked regarding specifications, and of course we cannot miss the processor. Zenbook DUO is equipped with Intel Core Ultra 9 processor, has a large-capacity battery of 75Wh, and has passed Intel EVO certification. It combines thinness, high performance, and long battery life. It is equipped with Intel Arc The graphics card has a built-in AI-specific NPU, which can reduce the power consumption of the CPU and GPU, improve the performance of AI and machine learning, and make the notebook battery life better.
Open Little Painter and try Cocreator. No problem. The AI can also understand the commands of the Shiba Inu flying on the moon.
You can also play with the AI assistant Copilot built into Windows 11. You can use Copilot to handle large and small tasks at work, such as asking it to extract an article excerpt, or asking it to search for images on the Internet, etc. OK
The above is a summary of the highlights and features of the ASUS Zenbook DUO dual-screen notebook. I feel that notebooks will appear more often in this form in the future. As for the actual use, it is not easy to use, and the switching between multiple windows is not smooth, etc. Maybe I have to wait until I have the opportunity to experience it for a long time before sharing my experience with everyone.
