The duo is super tempting. That extra small display would allow me to present during zoom calls while still seeing people's faces, so this opens up the ability to do my job without being tethered to my home office, which is very enticing
Give me 2 screens all day!
I was one of those people who did go out and get it last year, but I did push the boat out and spect the i9 processor, with as much ram they could squeeze in it, so I like the speed and performance it brings to the table.
The duo is an awesome laptop....!
Love seeing the innovation!!! Love it or hate it, ASUS earned a serious consideration. I'll spend my money with a vendor who's willing to push the envelope and bring us cool and functional new design!! ASUS is awesome for that.
That 2nd screen is brilliant. Anybody with a dual monitor setup has surely always wished for a little more screen space when going mobile.
Great new laptops, you canât go wrong with any of them.
Which one do you prefer?
How much it cost and how can we buy one online?
but which one makes your day trading better
Thought I knew, by the end I was questioning my choice.
Well done Asus. Also great video Tech Chap
thank you for this energy and this information
You're very welcome
Finally!! Finally we are starting to see high refresh OLED laptop screens! This is amazing.
Probably gonna get the Vivobook Pro 16 OLED since it has the least moving parts.
man i really like ur table and the metal ball is moving look so cool..
I'd go with the Zenbook Pro 16X. The screen is a bit bigger than I'm used to, but it's the ultimate version of what I have now ( Zenbook 15 U534).
The Duo would be incredible for video editing, but I'd be devastated if anything happened to that keyboard screen.
Thanks to the exposure in this video I just bought a zenbook 16x oled. What a machine! Literally no compromises. It has everything you could want.
Definitely the Duo. I was looking for previous version of Zenbook Duo
I want a laptop without a numeric keypad or any gimmicks on the wrist rests. I think Asus is doing a great job to be innovative, which I like a lot. The main issue is that they are not able to penetrate the North American market because of small build issues. It is going to be tough to defeat Dell and Lenovo in this market of office production machines.
Thanks for the video, any update on prices. In your opinion whatâs the best 16 inch oled or lcd laptop you can currently buy?
More than 2 years back, I purchased an Acer swift 3 laptop after watching your video. And It is just running superb, by the I uninstalled Windows and switched completely to Linux. Now, I am thinking of upgrading my laptop, I am a researcher, so I do a bit of photo editing, illustration, running programs like python, sometime video editing, and a lot of browsing. Can you suggest a laptop under $1200? Is MacBook Air m1 good? or should I wait for M2?
Thanks for the quick review of these machines.
These are all beautiful. I have a early Zenbook Duo (non-pro) and love it. Mine doesn't have the number pad in the touchpad but it does everything else I need it to do.
I believe Asus is the most innovative company in the laptop market. So many of their designs are both aesthetically appealing and functional. I would recommend Asus to anyone looking for a Windows laptop.
@Colin Nardo Definitely. I will say that if you are going to be writing code or doing anything else that requires a number pad, I would try to get the pro model. I have an external number pad that I seldom carry around with me and I occasionally wish my laptop had it built in.
You will have to get used to the second display. Sometimes a program or tool panel will open on this second display and you might not realize it is there.
I'll absolutely go for the VivoBook Pro OLED, just because any single one of them probably already has power than I need, and that one looks the most normal for programming.
Yep - thatâs fair!
If you actually don't need the dGPU (Nvidia dedicated graphics card), ASUS also has a cheaper variant of the Vivobook Pro series minus the GPU power.
It's called "VivoBook S", comes in 14, 15 and 16" sizes, and uses the same chassis and OLED display. They are better suited for programming thanks to quieter fan noise, less heat, and longer battery life.
OLED display is big NO
@@nikelmaharjan6755 SO true, once you use it, you won't come back to others
with 32gb maximum for programing or content editing i prefer use macbook pro with 64gb ram. and it's still not enough ram
Would you consider comparing the 14" HP laptops? It is my favorite brand.
Do you recommend the Zenbook duo for gaming? With external display and egpu?
The middle looks amazing
I'll choose the Asus VivoBook with the high refresh-rate screen. That would be the sweet spot for most of them...đđđ
*120hz 3.2k OLED screen on the VivoBook 12th Gen with 3070 ti FOR THE WIN!!*
I bought last years zenbook duo, but don't really under the 'feeling sorry for' comment. At least, compared to last years 14 inch model (non pro), this is a totally different product. Not really even in the same price bracket.
And there are some reasons to prefer last years model (for example, LCD for no burn in, both displays are matte for consistency, and USBC charging instead of these barrel ports which in my experience have a much higher failure rate over time).
Of course if money was no object I would love to get an upgrade. But as it is, last years model is still a great laptop that will serve me well for a long time.
Are there any news on the release of the vivobook pro 16x oled? If so could you review it when it is is released?
I would go with the Vivobook, I guess it has the highest chance to survive long term having less moving parts.
Agreed. The others look gimmicky. The stuff you think that's cool, then never make use of it.
Good point!
Zenbooks generally have WAY better build quality ( all around) than Vivobooks. Not sure for this year tho.
Doesnt oled screens have burn in issues ?
@@25557813 This has changed since the arrival of the Vivobook Pro 14x. In fact the Zenbook is more an ultrabook and the Vivobook Pro 14X a creator laptop because of the RTX 3050TI
Those oleds look amazing cinebench and gaming scores as well.
They should do well.
Hard to choose as each has something unique and innovative.
I like dual screens though my LG V60 prefers the duo
great video as always! little question here tho, do you have to worry about OLED burns in those kinds of laptop screens? (i have owned an oled tv for about 5 years now, and it is ruined at this point)
NO! I've had my zenbook with the 4K OLED display for over a year and a half now, and there's no burn in. In fact, all of my products are OLED and I've never experienced burn in. The burn in issue is so 2014. The burn in issue was resolved years ago. Asus has the greatest displays of any monitor on the market.
I would go with zenbook pro 14 duo OLED for the smaller screen and being not too heavy
YESSSS
Same
Those screens... there's no going back once you've gone OLED.
Any refresh for the 13.3 inch or Flips? Don't suppose they can put better graphics or battery life into them somehow?
Price?
And how long will the OLED screens last?
At least 5 years?
I would buy one, but with a matte display.
Hahaha that Hi goons was spot on. đđ»
*Vivobook Pro 16X OLED (N7601, 12th Gen Intel) FOR THE WIN!! It comes with the 3070 ti and cool silver NO MORE NASTY smudges and fingerprints on the black laptops.*
Hello, awesome review, thank you. Iâm seriously considering buying day Zen book pro 16. Iâm wondering if people have had any issues with it. Someone told me they got an Asus laptop, (Although not this particular one) And they had a lot of problems with it not functioning properly. Admittedly this is only an N=1.
Can you compare asus ux482 and 8402 please.đ„ș.I'm wodering between 2 version, can you compare its size also?Is ux483 i7 version beter or the cheapest 8402 better
Hi! May I check with you if the unit u received for review has the grainy main screen issue, which means u can see the underlying pixels very clearly on the main screen, especially under a bright and light color background? This has been a prevailing issue with this device as mentioned by many buyer reviews but ASUS never recognized it
Any updated information on pricing or availability? Looking at the ASUS VivoBook Pro 16X or from other brands the Dell XPS 15 with 3.5k OLED, but really need it to upgrade in the next month or so for a work project.
I love the Flow x16 :D
I'm trying to decide between the 16x and the upcoming pro 17. I don't need all the power of the 16x, the 17 would be fine. The 16x has the OLED though, and there's the performance when you need it... I also prefer the keyboard without the num pad. Price may decide, but I'd love to hear your thoughts, and hopefully you will review the 17 pro as well. My main use is for coding and some video editing.
YESSS MOST DEFINITELY NEED THAT 17-INCH SCREEN i st thing i noticed with my 11-inch screen none of clip attachments appeared on the screen LENOVA AND MY HP
@@PedalToTheMetal61888 i went with the 16x and it's amazing
I will take the ZenBook because it is so powerful and have a good time design !
Peaceful evening.
Thank you Tech Chap.
Please I am looking forward to the full review of the ASUS Zenbook Pro 16X and the ASUS VivoBook Pro 16X.
I don't know if one can get a decent 8 hours battery life on the 12th gen processors. If not I am currently considering to buy the AMD version of the ASUS Vivobook Pro 16X instead.
Hello tech boy. Do you recommend the ZenBook 14 Pro Duo OLED for learning web development ?
Hey there Techchap! Did you get to test the battery life or temperatures of the Asus Vivobook Pro 16X 12900H/3070ti?
I got the pro duo and don't think I can go back to a single. Running drafting apps I put all my tools down there and have the entire clear workspace up top.
Question for people that own that product. I donât use alot of application together but i often open a4 pdf. How confortable is it to use the second screen as an extension of themain one and use it to read all a pdf or even an web page?
Hi, how much this laptop cost? And how can I order it?
I'm actually looking forward to the ASUS Zenbook S 13 OLED they also announced.
I am watching this right now on the previous gen Asus Zenbook Duo 14 inch ):
Great mics and webcams too. But those screens are great.
There is a 4k version of the vivobook pro 16x oled in this video, but I can't find the 4k version of the vivobook pro 16x oled on the asus official website. How can I buy a 4k version of the vivobook pro 16x oled???
All of them!
0:18 the zenbook 16x pro ...bro just gimme that it's a dream đ
Zenbook Pro 16X for me as well. Any word on the release date and pricing?
I am thinking to purchase Zenbook S13 Flip OLEd (i7, 11th gen) very soon mainly to run Engineering Softwares on it.
What would be more better between Zenbook S13 Flip and HP Specter 13?
Any advice/comment on it please?
Thanks in advance..âđ»đ
Love the 14 pro oled . The most fun and productive laptop I ever bought
I just bought one. How much did you buy yours for if you dont mind me asking. I'm wondering if I got a good deal
@@inan3099 I paid around 2k USD in UAE with taxes for i7 3050ti 16gb with two years warranty
@@hk6926 That's not bad at all, I paid a little bit less but that's because I got the Iris Xe graphics model with 32 gb of ram. I hope you enjoy
Vivobook PRo 16X with 120hz Panel for me. Though i would prefer Ryzen model since Im not a fan of the 12th Gen Intel thermals
In my job, I edit TV shows in Avid but I'll move to Adobe Premiere Pro soon (tv station requirement not my choice) ...so ...the additional screen could be very useful, but I don't know how much? Maybe putting the video timeline on the small screen? My question is can you use any programs on the smaller screen?
these seem like really good deals, curious to see how the zenbook 17 fold does in comparison
GLAD YOU GUYS SEE WHAT I SEE ASUS ZEN IS SUPPOSEED TO BE THE NUMBER 1 I MAC KILLER AND MAYBE THE ACER ASPIRE OR DELL WORK STATION MODELS XPS ,,, ETC,,,ETC,,, ETC,,,
Pro looks amazing
It's shame that secondary screen isn't OLED, though they would have to deal with the reflections. I'm wondering whether they have improved viewing angles (not only by lifting it up), because in UX482 they are terrible. What's the brightness of the secondary screen? I've seen in the videos 500-600?
I also hope they worked with some app developers to make apps more suitable for secondary screen - there are apps like Spotify (which is one oh the most obvious app to use with the secondary screen) that have min height, so the media bar actually doesn't fit.
I am really not into 3050 Ti and i9 - i'd rather go for Xe graphics and i7, as I assume this could double the battery performance. I might upgrade...
Ok, since the vertical resolution is up to 865px from 515px, the the apps should be fine. According to the official specs, which are now up, it's 500 nits 120hz and apparently still dci-p3 still around 97%. So if they have improved viewing angels just a little bit, it should finally do the job.
So only if there will be a configuration without 3050 ti and with i7 instead of i9 - RAM is way more important for multitasking. No dedicated graphics and i9 = 2x battery performance
you can always disable the nvidia gpu for a better battery life
@@richardsanchez1058 so I Assume that 4-6 hrs of battery life is when GPU is in use. Ux482 with almost 10% smaller battery could run for 8-9 hrs with mid usage
@@KasztanTS yaa I am talking about video streaming ms office browsing etc. Then it will be like 7-8 hours worth of battery
Honestly you must buy a moft carry sleeve . The viewing and typing gets so much better .
Whenâs the release date for the Asus zenbook pro duo 14 oled?
Having an in-built secondary monitor is nice. But its kinda small and im worried about foreign objects / dust clogging under it. Prob better to just buy a portable monitor
Any news on release date yet? Are we talking a few weeks wait or like months?!
Hey Tom from Tech Chap great overview. I'm currently eyeing the Vivobook oled you previewed with the 3070ti but I have a few questions. How much battery life do you average, is the ram soldiered and does it have a mux switch? Thank you.
Finally the OLEd laptops are coming!
I am watching this on the "out going" zen book duo 15 and when you said 3 times faster the video stuttered...
BROO 0:26 thats such a sick table!!! Where on earth can i get one of those?!
I got the zenbook 14 2022 i5 version and its good.
Sorry I didn't get When it Comes outâ Especially the Vivobook Pro 14X (N7401).
I sent a Mail to Asus last week and the answer was "automatic" lol.
Still hesitating with the Dell XPS, although I've read a lot of bad reviews and experiments with the latter...
Feel free to share any thoughts on that đ
I wold 1000000000000000000000% pick the duo even though I'm a tablet Guy I'm in love with it.
What is the software u use for checking the specs?
Does the 2nd screen on the 14" Pro Duo OLED slot on and off?
The duo đ©
Does the lower display have to pop up like that each time the laptop is open on the 14?
What about the 4K 15" version of the Zenbook Pro Duo? Didn't get realeased this year?
I would go for the ZenBook pro 16 - What about prices?
That 16X OLED looks cool
Would you make a video of the best budget laptops especially with the cost of living I think it would really help students and people looking a new laptop that they can actually afford
Does the ProArt Studiobook 16 OLED have better specs than the Zenbook 16X OLED?
Hi..I want to know that refresh rate does really matters to .2 ms response time for OLED
If only the Zenbook Pro 16X had the higher refresh... Just kills the vide of that unit and makes the Vivobook more favorable at that point...
Iâll most likely pick the VivoBook Pro OLED
I'd be happy with either of them đ
my old laptop is dying, so just watching this out of curiosity, in case I can afford to replace it đ
Hi guys, will these thunderbolt 4 ports be able to support up to the new upcoming USB4 240w EPR charging speeds in the future??
Thanks Tom - it's all a bit blah, blah, blah at the moment because I already have a 2020 Zenbook 14" that I was very pleased with - especially the wonderfully whizzy 475GB SSD, WHICH FAILED AT 15months! So, yes, they look & sound good, but that experience kinda rocks your confidence in the company! Certainly the quality was good enough to match my MacBookPro & the rest was in the process of wrenching me away from an Apple renewal - theirs has lasted me almost 7 years! So now I keep an eye on the updates but temper these reviews with a bit of Real World Reality, b ut thanks again.
Dude please tell me where i can get that table with the marble rolling!?
Zenbook 14 pro dup or zenbook 15 pro duo which is best
Zenbook pro 14 duo cuz I wanna do game deployment in the future so this can be useful
Too Mesmerizing Laptops
Anyone know the us pricing and release date? Can't find any at official website
Vivobook is goooood đđŒđ
Zenbook Pro Duo.......... no doubt about it
Great review Chap. Although in 2022 60hz is for suckers. Phones are all becoming 120 how embarrassing..
Zenbook Pro 14 Duo OLED
đ„đ„đ„đ„đ„đ„đ„đ„đ„
Quite powerful laptop
Heâs still using the LG C2 42â TV as a monitor. Interesting!
Please review and compare them to the Samsung Book2 Pro that was released last month.
Hello, is it a good choice for around 8 hours daily use? Working from home and mainly use ms office, do you think oled screen will be a potential issue in the long run? Thanks for your advice.
OLED is so awesome that even if it end up having some issues in the future, lets say 3 years from now, then it would be totally worth it paying $200 for a new screen replacement. Your eyes are way more valuable than that.
It is just too good of a tech to be worried of a 15% potential cost increase.
Any ideas for a time frame? Looking as a student
EDIT: After the whole video, I'm like straight up stuck between the last two, but actually leaning towards the Duo. I thought the screen would be gimmicky, but it looks like it would be a godsend with editing, illustration (checking colors), and note taking!
The azus vivobook pro oled would be lovely sir for a take home
