ASUS just launched a couple of new gaming laptops. But the most interesting one of them is the ASUS ROG Zephyrus Duo 15.
It’s quite similar to the ZenBook Pro Duo from last year. But with the ASUS ROG Zephyrus Duo 15, the secondary 13-inch secondary screen is tilted, which improves the viewing angles.
The main display is available in two flavors. Content creators can get the 4K UHD variant, with 100% Adobe RGB coverage. But for gamers, there’s an FHD panel with an ultra-fast 300Hz refresh rate and 3ms response time.
Lifting chassis is what the Zephyrus line is known for. As the second screen on the Zephyrus Duo lifts, more air are being sucked on the side, for better airflow.
Speaking of airflow, the ASUS ROG Zephyrus Duo 15 can be rigged with up to an Intel Core i9-10980HK CPU, NVIDIA RTX 2080 Super GPU, up to 32GB of RAM, and 2TB of storage.
Unlike most gaming laptops, ASUS also designed the ROG Zephyrus Duo 15 to be sleek and lightweight — just like the older Zephyrus laptops before it. This thing is only 20.9mm thick and weighs 2.4kg.
