Great performer and game changer for multi-tasking

Great laptop all around, and the dual screen is game-changing from multi-tasking and more. The only issues I've ran so far, which I believe is more of a Windows 11 issue, is that when I go to Hibernation, and I try to turn on the Zenbook Duo, it would show the Asus animated logo, then go to black. I have to then hold the power button for 10 seconds to power down and then restart.
I don't always use Hibernate, but it is a useful function, and I hope new versions of Windows 11 will fix this problem.
Other than that, wow! I can do so much with this laptop when it comes to working with multiple browser windows apps. Whether I want to browse on the top while answer e-mails and text messages on the bottom, the possibility is all there.
I love using multiple monitors on my home desktop, so using the two monitors here puts me right back at my most productive. Not only that, but the top monitor is at a very nice height for general use, causing less neck strain than typical laptops where you're always looking down.
The 3K OLED screens themselves are gorgeous and vibrant, although with my Calibrite Pro screen calibrator, the Delta color accuracy is just at 3 even after calibration, so not the most dead-accurate, but very usable. I think with several more runs on the calibration (which uses 468 color patches), it will get there (hopefully).
The keyboard is surprisingly easy to type and despite it being so flat, I don't experience fatigue. I can type just about as fast on it as my previous HP Zbook Studio X360 laptop and my desktop mechanical keyboard.
I think if there's one thing I'd like to fix, you can turn off the "Smart Gesture" on the Touchpad for volume and brightness, which I can accidently swipe, when the keyboard is attached to the laptop, but when I use it in Bluetooth mode, this "Smart Gesture" returns.
Overall, there's so much to like about this laptop. Even the battery life is not too shabby, and you can certainly get at least 5-6 productive hours with just a little bit of restraint when on battery mode. I prefer to be plugged in, and the Battery Protection Mode feels reassuring.

The best laptop I haver used. It's exactly what I was looking for in a laptop. It's very useful and effective in the work that I do. I always use 3 screens when i work. And this alleviate the stress of carrying an extra screen. I'm so glad that I got the duo. I highly recommend it to anyone who use multiple screens.

SECOND DUO Zenbook I purchased because it is faster and has more memory than last version. I use it to work on photos mostly. The only real issue I have is your printed manual is way to tiny print and does not explain how the keyboard works easily with charging and bluetooth. I love that you provide a pen stylus and it keeps the screen cleaner than using fingers. I am a serious photographer and this 2 screen computer is great for travel and whenever you need portability in a laptop.

Great PC solid design, however the battery life on dual screen mode will get you closer to around 6-8hours (low brightness, low cpu load, running just VS code and browser tabs). The OLED displays are nice you don’t have to worry about the stand in its standard position however in desktop mode it’s a bit flawed, probably would have been better to have 2 small dedicated stands for adjustable angles and support. The one thing that bothers me the most is you can’t really have static images disabled (hidden taskbar) on dual screen mode.. the mouse pointer has a tendency to jump between the screens when you just want to access the task bar.. None the less, I would say it is a great PC worth the buy if you’re looking for increased productivity without sacrificing portability!
