Though a 90Whr battery sounds amazing, given the 4K dual-display & other power-hungry components, the actual endurance may not be that exciting. This laptop has a 90Whr battery and supports USB Type-C PD 3.0 (up to 65W) charging or via the good-ol’ fashioned power adaptor which is a 240W juggernaut. Moreover, it has two audio jacks, one of which is for plugging in dedicated mic for streaming, voice recording, and whatnot.Īlso read: ASUS ROG Zephyrus G14 with Ryzen 4000 CPU launched In terms of the speakers itself, it has 2x 4W speakers with Smart AMP technology. It supports Hi-Res audio, which is delivered by ESS Sabre HiFi DAC, for an immersive virtual surround sound. The ASUS ROG Zephyrus Duo 15 has a decent audio system as well. According to the company, its “easy-upgrade” design, as the name implies, lets you upgrade components like RAM without any unnecessary hassle. ASUS is also particularly proud of how they put together all these components inside an ultra-slim gaming laptop. Wait, are your eyes glowing with excitement? I kid, of course. Moving on to storage, the ASUS ROG Zephyrus Duo 15 can hold up to 2TB of SSD in RAID 0. Getting to memory, the top-end configuration will have up to 32GB of DDR4 SDRAM clocked However, depending upon the model, you can also choose between either 8 or 16GB of RAM with the same clock speed. Coming to the graphics, you get NVIDIA‘s latest Turing-based RTX SUPER cards either RTX 2070 or 2080 SUPER, both with 8GB of GDDR6 VRAM. In terms of CPU, you can choose between two high-performance Intel Comet Lake processors – Core i9-10980HK or i7-10875H. Seeing how the ASUS ROG Zephyrus Duo 15 is a top-of-the-line gaming laptop, it is powered by the latest Intel processor & NVIDIA graphics. So many possibilities! Performance & Memory for a larger & more comfortable working space. It can also act as an extension of one single program like Photoshop, Premiere Pro, etc. Enjoy your game on the main screen and launch your Discord, Twitch or other apps on the secondary screen. You may already have some ideas about how to utilize that ROG Screenpad Plus.
Similarly, ASUS has utilized the space underneath the 14.1-inch display by integrating a large 28.5mm air intake for which allows for the inflow of cool air and reduction of fan noise. The screen (ROG Screenpad Plus) is tilted at 13º for a more comfortable viewing than the one on the ZenBook Pro Duo. It is a 14.1-inches 4K-ish (3840 x 1100) touchscreen panel in both variants, which is supported by a hinge that lifts the panel in the same motion as lifting the lid. Anyways, the secondary display is what we’re excited about so let’s talk about that instead. These touchscreen supported primary screens have minimal bezels all around and surprisingly, a webcam is missing. There are two variants of the Zephyrus Duo 15 one with a 15.6-inches 4K UHD 60Hz LED-backlit IPS panel & 100% Adobe RGB, or a 15.6-inches FHD 300Hz IPS panel & 100% sRGB. Obviously, the display is the most interesting thing about this laptop. So, the company has been marketing the Zephyrus Duo 15 towards both: content creators and gamers. It’s got the latest & greatest internals with an embedded secondary display that can come handy in use cases other than gaming. That actually maybe because of the potentials of this beast. Though it’s a gaming-centered laptop, it doesn’t have that aggressive design approach compared to other high-end ROG Zephyrus laptops we’ve seen in the past. Starting with the design, the Zephyrus Duo 15 comes in a premium all-metal chassis and the lid has that classic ROG logo as well. Well, ASUS is not backing down on the dual-display trend as its new ROG Zephyrus Duo 15 improves upon the legacy of its ZenBook counterpart.
Though the entire chassis would lift when opening the laptop but still, you’d have to reposition yourself to properly access contents on the smaller screen. Our two major complaints were how it lacked proper support from Windows and its visibility. Having said that, the secondary screen was not free from compromises.
Remember the ASUS ZenBook Duo/Pro Duo from last year? It had that crazy dual display integrated on the upper half of the keyboard deck, which to some extent, delivered on its promise of enhanced productivity.
