The ASUS ZenBook Pro Duo 15 is an upper midrange laptop featuring a high-resolution OLED touchscreen which offers vibrant colors and detailed images, making it suitable for creative professionals. With an Intel i9 processor and Nvidia RTX 3070 Ti GPU, it provides excellent performance for 3D rendering, machine learning, and engineering tasks. The sizable storage and RAM will support intensive multitasking and large projects. The dual-screen design increases productivity but decreases portability; at over 5 pounds, it's less convenient to carry around. With around 7 hours of battery life, you'll likely need to bring the charger for longer work sessions. The build quality is top-notch, and features like a backlit keyboard and Thunderbolt ports enhance its usability. However, keep in mind the price is higher for this combination of features and performance. Give Feedback

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."
