I suppose not everything in South Africa is bad. Where else can you buy a beach house for less than the cost of an entry level Toyota! When you look at the problems with Eskom and the corruption of the 2000! This is a term of endearment for the members of the ruling party and their extended families who are the only beneficiaries in the ‘new poorer’ South Africa. While to renew a Dotcom use to cost about $13.00 – In 2024 you will pay about $380.00! But then where can you buy a beach-house for less than the cost of an entry level Toyota Corolla? Online sellers around the world this is for your ears. You too can take advantage of the petrified weak South African Rand. What do you pay in advertising? PPC (Pay-Per-Click) Imagine having the same Advertising Campaign but instead of it costing 10–15% of your monthly revenue. Take this example. Your monthly revenue is 1m USD. You spend about $150 000.00 per month on digital advertising. $150 000.00 divided by 20 = the new USD amount if you pay with your USD and the advertising company agency is based in South Africa. You do not need to visit S. Africa you do not need to live without power or be concerned about the crime rate if it happens to he higher than in your city. There is no risk and you can always decide to pay in USD locally. No moving assets or furniture. It is the safest investment you can make without having to invest anything in or on Africa.

The ASUS Zenbook Duo 2024 UX8406 boasts a phenomenal design that is unlike anything we have ever experienced in a laptop.

It features two full 14-inch displays that take your productivity to new heights, and a separate keyboard and touchpad that attach to the device magnetically.

This results in a native dual-screen laptop that offers an all-display configuration ÔÇô or, with the keyboard locked directly over one of the displays, a more traditional form factor.

Its dual-screen setup, however, is where the Zenbook Duo really shines ÔÇô letting you multitask seamlessly and without taking up a lot of space.

Complementing its innovative design is a dedicated Intel Arc Graphics GPU, an Intel Core Ultra 9 CPU, 32GB RAM, and a whopping 2TB SSD storage ÔÇô making this laptop a total powerhouse.

Watch our review of the ASUS Zenbook Duo 2024 below, and read on to get all the details.

First impressions

Opening the ASUS Zenbook Duo for the first time reveals a sleek, professional-looking 14-inch laptop with a strong build quality.

Even before one explores its innovative design, this laptop stands out thanks to its 16:10 OLED touchscreen display ÔÇô which is one of the best displays IÔÇÖve ever used.

Key features include a 3K resolution, cinema-grade 100% DCI-P3 colour accuracy, impressive brightness, and outstanding OLED contrasts.

It also offers a 120Hz refresh rate and industry-leading 0.2ms response time ÔÇô making both the viewing and touchscreen experiences extremely smooth.

Where form meets function

The Zenbook Duo elevates to a new level when you experiment with its removable keyboard and touchpad, as well as the second display that sits underneath them.

Two full-sized 14-inch OLED screens on a single laptop is a revolutionary concept ÔÇô not just within the Zenbook range, but also in the laptop industry.

The second screen can be used as a second display; to duplicate the primary display; or you can deploy the ViewMax feature to create a single expansive display that spans both screens.

Thanks to this versatility, the Zenbook Duo has four use modes:

  • Desktop mode?áÔÇô Side-by-side portrait screens or a single expansive display using ViewMax.
  • Dual screen mode?áÔÇô Both displays in landscape mode, placed above each other for efficient multitasking.
  • Sharing mode?áÔÇô Place the laptop flat to present content to co-workers on the second display.
  • Laptop mode?áÔÇô Place the keyboard onto the lower display for a normal laptop setup.

To stand the laptop upright for Desktop and Dual Screen modes, a sturdy metal kickstand is fixed to the back of the lower display.

When you then decide to put the keyboard over the lower screen, it will automatically snap into place thanks to a powerful magnet array ÔÇô while Pogo pins ensure it begins charging as soon as it is in place.

This keyboard is lightweight, comfortable to type with, and offers backlighting as well as a decent-sized, responsive touchpad.

We also tested the two touchscreens with the ASUS Pen 2.0 and found the stylus to be responsive and intuitive ÔÇô making it worthwhile when editing video content or using Photoshop.

High-end specs

The Zenbook Duo we tested was powered by high-end hardware, including the latest-generation Intel Core Ultra 9 185H processor, 32GB of LPDDR5x RAM, dedicated Intel Arc Graphics, and a 2TB high-speed SSD.

This powerful hardware keeps the ASUS Zenbook Duo running smoothly while its dedicated graphics card takes care of all your editing and content creation needs.

ASUS included a 75Wh battery with 65W fast charging to provide the Zenbook Duo with up to 10 hours of use per charge ÔÇô which is extremely impressive when powering two displays and such demanding hardware.

The ASUS Zenbook DuoÔÇÖs impressive performance and functionality is then packaged into a form factor that is only 0.78 inches thick, and weighs a mere 1.35kg (1.65kg with the keyboard).

Final thoughts

The compact size, innovative design, impressive battery life, and potent hardware make the ASUS Zenbook Duo 2024 UX8406 the ultimate high-performance laptop for creators and professionals.
