The new Asus Zenbook Duo has made its way to the market, following the innovative model before it, which was priced around $1500 on Amazon. This latest version brings only slight improvements. The standout feature is the new Intel Core Ultra 9 285H processor, which includes six performance cores that can reach boost speeds of 5.4 GHz. It also has eight efficiency cores and an integrated Intel Arc 140T GPU with eight Xe cores that can clock up to 2.35 GHz.
Still a Strong Option in 2025
Even with limited updates, the Asus Zenbook Duo still proves to be a great option for 2025. It comes with two 14-inch touchscreens, both in a 16:10 aspect ratio. These screens utilize OLED technology and offer a resolution of 2880 x 1800 pixels with a 120 Hz refresh rate. With the ScreenXpert software, users can use multitouch gestures to easily switch between apps or bring up the software keyboard. Additionally, Asus provides a Bluetooth keyboard for convenience.
Flexible Display Setup
One of the neat features of the Zenbook Duo is its foldable stand, which allows users to set up the two displays either side by side or stacked on top of each other. This flexibility makes it easy to run multiple apps at once, even while on the move. The device only weighs 3.6 lbs (1.65 kg) and comes with options for up to 32 GB of LPDDR5X RAM, a 2-TB PCIe 4.0 SSD, and a 75-Wh battery that allows for USB-C charging at up to 65 watts. For connectivity, users can enjoy Wi-Fi 7, Bluetooth 5.4, two Thunderbolt 4 (USB-C) ports, one USB-A (5 Gbit/s) port, and an HDMI 2.1 output.
Launch Details
The Asus Zenbook Duo (UX8406) is expected to hit the shelves in February, starting at a price of $1699.99.
