ASUS Malaysia has just announced the ASUS Zenbook DUO (2024) UX8406 at the Transcend Beyond Grand Launch Event. This ultraportable laptop is making waves as the first of its kind with two 14-inch 3K 120Hz OLED touchscreens.
ASUS Zenbook DUO: Double the Screens, Double the Power
The Zenbook DUO is turning heads with its unique design. It comes equipped with two 14-inch 3K 120Hz OLED touchscreens and a detachable full-size Bluetooth ASUS ErgoSense keyboard and touchpad. This setup is redefining on-the-go versatility, allowing users to detach the keyboard and utilise the full visual workspace or keep it on for a traditional laptop experience.
Weighing in at just 1.35kg, the Intel Evo Edition Zenbook DUO is not just about looks. It combines multitasking prowess with superb mobility. Powered by an Intel Core Ultra 9 processor with AI acceleration, 32GB of LPDDR5x memory, and a snappy 1TB PCIe 4.0 SSD, this laptop is ready for any task. The long-lasting 75Wh battery and Harman Kardon-certified Dolby Atmos audio system add the finishing touches to an impressive performance package.
The Zenbook DUO’s design isn’t just about aesthetics; it’s about practicality. The lay-flat 180° hinge and intuitive ASUS ScreenXpert software provide four user modes – Laptop, Dual Screen, Desktop, and Sharing. These modes cater to a range of needs, from serious work sessions to collaborative meetings.
ASUS is keeping the environment in mind with the Zenbook DUO. Constructed from 90% post-industrial-recycled (PIR) magnesium-aluminum alloy, it exceeds ENERGY STAR power-efficiency requirements by up to 43%. The device is durability tested to US MIL-STD-810H standards, ensuring reliability in everyday use.
The Zenbook DUO doesn’t compromise on ease of use. The dual screens support high-precision stylus input and feature ASUS ScreenXpert software for intuitive multitouch gesture support. It also comes with a variety of modes to suit different user preferences, from a traditional laptop layout to a full-size virtual keyboard.
