#ASUS ZENBOOK DUO PORTABLE#
If you don't find yourself near power outlets when using a portable PC, this laptop may not be the best choice.

Speaking of which, the Zenbook Pro 14 Duo OLED has a pretty good battery pack (74Wh), but the onboard components can absolutely decimate it when you're looking to use the laptop for what it was designed for - creative work.

This could be difficult for ASUS to solve, and it seems to me as more of a sacrifice for the added benefit of the 12-inch secondary display.Įven the fancy ASUS IceCool Plus technology is unable to keep the Intel Core i9-12900H cool. This is mitigated by the dual-screen setup with touch support, but for general use where keyboard and point are more convenient, it's simply not as ergonomically friendly as other creator laptops. While you do eventually get used to how and where (just not why) everything is positioned, it still leaves one with a super-compact touchpad. First is the awkward keyboard and touchpad layout. ASUS Zenbook Pro 14 Duo OLED: What's not goodīecause the ASUS Zenbook Pro 14 Duo OLED isn't quite perfect, there are some areas where ASUS could look to make some form of improvement. Switching modes to standard or whisper do pull back the CPU boost as well as temperatures and fan noise, without sacrificing too much on performance.
Just watch out for a rather warm lap if you're not at a desk.

You shouldn't have an issue running more intense software since the GPU has its own cooling and even with the considerably warmer core temperatures, the laptop is able to maintain decent clock speeds. Compared to the ASUS Strix SCAR G533, which sports the same Intel processor, the Zenbook Pro 14 Duo OLED falls a little behind, but only by a small percent. Still, even with the limiter active, the ASUS Zenbook Pro 14 Duo OLED performed well in benchmarks.
Even through medium use, it's easy to encounter thermal throttling as the CPU hits some seriously hot temperatures (it's easy to hit mid to upper 90 C). Even with the advancements made to the cooling solution, ASUS is still struggling to tame the mightily powerful 16-core processor. I was expecting some real positive results with the Intel Core i9-12900H processor, 16GB of DDR5 RAM, and the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 Ti. So, while it's not the range-topping configuration, our testing and benchmark results will provide a good insight into how it'll perform. Our review sample also came with 16GB of LPDDR5-4800 RAM, and a 1TB M.2 SSD. This will seem awkward at first and will take some getting used to.įor performance, we're looking at quite the laptop with an Intel Core i9-12900H and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 Ti GPU. The keyboard is located below the ScreenPad Plus with the small touchpad to the right. This is achieved thanks to the Active Aerodynamic System Ultra (AAS Ultra) hinge.Īs well as tilting the second display, this hinge also has the added benefit of raising up the main display to reveal some space for heat to be dissipated from the CPU and GPU fans. The second screen is raised by 12 degrees to almost greet you as you boot up Windows 11. Even opening the lid of the laptop is an experience in itself. This is more than enough to hook up all your devices, be it external storage, a second (or in this case, third) display, and other peripherals.
The design of the laptop has altered slightly too, rocking a new logo on the lid, but the original design was so good that ASUS didn't need to change much for the 2022 refresh. Other highlights of the Zenbook Pro 14 Duo OLED include the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 Ti GPU, 12th Gen Intel CPU, LPDDR5-4800 RAM, and speedy M.2 SSDs. The second screen is now brighter and has a higher resolution than before, which makes it easier to use both inside and out. A few other changes were made, but it's this latest iteration (the UX8402Z) that takes everything to a whole new level. The Zenbook Pro Duo 14 OLED is stunning to look at with its two 2.8K 120Hz displays.ĪSUS came out with a successor, which lifted the second display slightly. While unique, the ASUS Zenbook Pro 14 Duo required numerous improvements. We first laid eyes on this dual-screen laptop at Computex 2019 and were taken back by just how outlandish the form factor was. The ASUS Zenbook Pro 14 Duo has been around for a few years now.
