Thank you for being the only channel mentioning the ergonomic benefit of these dual-screen laptops! I've been sick of no one talking about how all other laptops make me crane my neck to look at the screen!

You can use a laptop stand if you WFH or in an office or an external display. Try these dual-screen LAPtops on your LAP and see how awkward they are for their main use case.

Josh is 100% Apple fanboy...

As a former Samsung Galaxy Fold owner who left the bandwagon for the current LG V50 with its detachable Dual Screen case, I can easily vouch that dual display turns out to be far more practical than foldable screen. One of the biggest perk with dual display is that I never have to worry about app incompatibility. Not all apps are developed for larger screens and can't do screen splitting. It's the same story when I tried out both Lenovo X1 Fold and Lenovo Yoga Book 9i. I have more problem using apps/softwares in the X1 Fold than in the Yoga Book 9i. The only thing I would complain about the Yoga Book 9i is the keyboard. Missing out the trackpad is a deal breaker.

Love that you guys reviewed the x1 fold

Great review Josh!

Thanks Josh. I had been waiting for a meaningful review on these laptops.

Great review Josh. I like analogy you make advertisement with Krypton girl 😂

I got the ASUS Duo and the displays were beautiful. It has VRR options which was never advertised and I was happy about. Battery was pretty terrible even running just one of the screens though, so I look forward to a snapdragon version of it or next years intel. I ended up sending it back because if you press on the bottom screen when using it as a track pad or keyboard (physical on top or virtual) it made a cracking noise, even though the screen itself was not damage in any way. Gaming on it was pretty awful (895 cpu) - I had hoped for something similar to a 7840u/780M but it didn't even achieve that.

Awesome! Thank you, been waiting for you guys to review the ASUS Duo 2024, as I’m in the market for a couple of new laptops,and had been eyeing up the duo ‘24….so, to get a comparative review with its competitors has been ace. I think the review has put me off these units, I do hope they continue to finesse the concept though.

thanks for a great review as usual. note that my asus zenbook duo did include the stylus. I use it at the table in the elevated position with the keyboard left on the lower display. You can tap out short searches or whatever when needed and still have the upper display positioned at that super comfortable spot. Of course, a laptop stand would do the same, but...

So grateful you made a video on the zenbook duo. Also do you have any idea if there might be a new zenbook duo next year?

Hey Josh! Just found your channel and I'm hooked - your laptop reviews are in a league of their own. Quick question: I'm a college student looking for a laptop for programming and note-taking, budget around $1250. Torn between the Zenbook 14 and the Surface with the Plus chip and OLED. Battery life is key, and 120Hz would be sweet. Any thoughts on which might last me longer? Thanks for all the great content! where am from the zenbook never go below 1k usd and the surface would probably cost way more maybe close to 1300 to 1500. Am okay to pay a bit more on a machine that will last me a long time 4 years maybe.

@JustJoshTech Hi Josh, Thanks for the review! I would like to know if the performance tests were done with an "ac power supply" or with the internal battery instead ? Modes available are (performance mode - ac needed; standard mode and Whisper ).

Here in the U.S, I got the Zenbook duo. It has 3200 x 1800 resolution screen, Intel Core Ultra 9 185H, included a backpack, and the Asus pen 2.0. Maybe international units don’t come with it, but it matches what you got with the yoga, except for the mouse, which I’m sure people replaced with a bigger one. Mine was $1699.99 usd.

Great review, I got the Zenbook Duo the first week it was launched. Coming from a Macbook Air M1, I miss the battery life and performance. However, using the dual-screen in my dining room, laptop mode in the couch and connected via HDMI in my office, it really is an interesting experience. The Zenbook Duo would be perfect with a Snapdragon X to improve the battery, and maybe if they manage to make it a bit ligher, it would be ideal. One trick is to use it in dual screen mode with only the top screen on, that way you get the ergonomic benefit and extend the battery life to 7-8 hrs. Also the performance improves when only using one monitor. I exclusively use the dual setup when multitasking. Overall, not for everyone. But this might be the future of laptops when the design has been polished. Btw Linux works fine with this laptop :)

Great review Josh. Eagerly waiting for the galaxy book 4 pro 16's review😊

You mentioned that the Yoga book was the only one with a stylus? I have the Zenbook Duo and it comes with a backpack and a stylus, along with a cardboard stand.

@@caswouters3189 it honestly is a great laptop, though with 2 screens Asus is still making the software and UX of working with two screens better and better by the day. However, for your graphics and more visual applications, I would definitely research a bit more if you're going to use the stylus or other input devices to ensure that the 2 screens work (I was a bit disappointed in the stylus that came with it, but not sure how Wacom or other devices would work). But overall i couldn't be happier with the laptop as a whole and believe it will be even better as Asus continue refining the software for the duo screens.

GPD (Gaming handheld company) is also releasing a dual screen laptop with an interesting form factor. Hopefully you can review it once it's out.

I’m a day trader and this was pretty awesome laptop to get. I think these things will be great in about 2 - 3 years with new chips maybe cooler ones

Good review. These devices, and traditional convertible 2-in-1s, are ripe for Snapdragon X and/or Lunar Lake (if Intel's efficiency promises are to be believed) refreshes.

Exactly, these types of systems seem very niche and aren't doing anything more than a basic laptop connected to additional monitors. I see the use case in such a portable device, but not for nearly $2,000 or more. I'd honestly say folding phones are more interesting because you essentially get a mid sized tablet in your pocket, where these laptops are still laptop sized

Thanks for the review but the Lenovo - ThinkPad X1 Fold 16 seems to be the ultimate machine IMO. Sure it's not the fastest laptop and it doesn't have the sturdiest stand but it does fit in a tiny bag or purse. Seeing everything on one large unfolded 16+ inch screen is nice! Being able to use both orientations is great as is the backlit keyboard and pen support made by Wacom. You failed to mention the durability too, this has military grade certification. Plus it has USB 65w fast charging, which is perfect to charge in a vehicle.

I want to see thin GMAING LAPTOP G16 body and specs in dual screen. For an archviz artist it defenitely will be a great choice.

I actually love my zenbook and use it mostly with the keyboard separated. Luckily you can turn off the second screen when not needed. I use it for unity and godot and even play a few games on it but on low - medium settings. Mostly useful for watching media while working on the bottom screen. Definitely had lots of features, especially when you use the pen. I just cant justify using the on screen keyboard, just use the actual keyboard.

I would love it if Lenovo did a large folding portable USB-C monitor, with a stand that raises it above my laptop's monitor so i can use both at the same time and have improved ergonomics when travelling. I made my own minimalist stand that i use with a 15.6" USB-C LG monitor that does this and its great, but bigger screen would be better as i really miss my 34" ultrawide when away from my desk for long periods.

Couple of things… I bought the ZenBook Duo from BestBuy and it did come with a pen (as well as a backpack though I don’t really care about either). Another major advantage over the Yoga Book is that the Yoga doesn’t come in a configuration with 32GB of RAM. Also the 185H processor comparison with the 9i is a little unfair because the 9i can only come with a 185H in the 16” model, not the 14”. For me… 16” is a dealbreaker, too big.

Dear Josh, I am planning to buy a laptop soon with a budget of €1,500. The laptop should be suitable for programming and video editing. Do you have a recommendation?

There are fantastic portable monitors now, and many are reasonably priced. They add little thickness to what these offer and can be used for multiple other uses. Also, you can buy any laptop you like without being limited to these devices, which are very low-end for their prices.

Regarding the Lenovo Yogabook 9i: You can fold the origami stand reverse, this allows a steeper angle in book mode. Thank you for this very informative video ❤

ARM might be part of the solution, but it is not THE solution. x86 chips don't consume more power than ARM because of the ISA. The current iterations of the 2 ISAs are remarkably similar except the lack of an AVX equivalent on ARM. Most ARM chips perform better than most x86 chips at low power because those specific cores are designed to. Intel targets 150W with their designs, then scales down. AMD targets 500W then scales down. Apple and Qualcomm target 10W, then scale up.

I really wait for the moment when foldable external screens will be available on the market, so one will be able casually put a macbook+27 inch screen in the backpack.

and now asus annouced the ZenScreen OLED MQ16AHE (more than 1K USD) and ZenScreen Duo OLED MQ149CD...

They need the low power performance and battery life of the Snapdragon chips. Imagine the second gen of these, with the second gen Snapdragon chips that will be announced later this year.... that could be a perfect match and hopefully by then a lot of the apps in beta or "coming soon" for ARM will be production ready!

It is unlikely that such a niche product would have an ARM and Intel option, so good luck waiting for a Snapdragon version.

I've never looked at these systems before, but it seems that it would just be better to have a large display laptop. The form factor seems useful for specific types of work, but the price to performance ratio seems very skewed.. not my cup of tea 😅

Great review. I have been very tempted to splurge on an Asus Zenbook Duo but your review has me thinking twice. I am eagerly awaiting your review of the Zenbook S16 with the Ryzen 9. That would be my alternative to the Duo.

when you start a sentence with the subject, you don't have to add a second subject for instance: "the macbook IT HAS a good keyboard" -> "the macbook HAS a good keyboard"

xmg neo 16??

I'm an artist. If I didn't already have a professional, 1k drawing monitor, and a wall-mounted monitor above it, I'd definitely see some value in this. We digital artists are ALWAYS using a second monitor for reference, and one for drawing.

I agree that dual screens increase productivity, but my solution is to use a much larger external monitor.

X1 Fold could have fixed its issues if it just was bigger and having new cpu

Need your recommendation ... Should i buy MSI PRESTIGE 16 AI EVO or MSI CREATOR Z16 for development??? please do respond

The Zenbook Duo is the best form-factor for a dual screen laptop IMO. If Asus stops being scummy about warranty I might even buy one someday.

The ZenBook Duo 2024 comes with an Asus Pen out of the box

Why All of them forgot to include a folding feet on the keyboard. it is like a age old thing which doesn't take up all that space but brings so much usability to the keyboard. a very stupid design indeed

I love how JOSH mentioned that the devices were averaging ~50% of battery life in the Netflix 4 hour video playback test. Josh probably not mentioning the hours to prevent people from saying that it only played 4K videos for 2 hours before the battery died…Don’t know why companies rushed to release this when they should have just released this with ARM. Intel chips are so bad for this form factor.
