The Asus ROG Zephyrus Duo GX651 is a premium dual-screen laptop aimed at creators and high-end gamers who benefit from extra workspace. It pairs an Intel Core Ultra 9 386H (Panther Lake) with an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 Laptop GPU and 64 GB of fast DDR5 memory for strong productivity and gaming performance. The main 16-inch 2880×1800 120 Hz OLED touchscreen anchors the experience, with the secondary display repeatedly cited as a real workflow advantage. Port selection is rich, including USB4/Thunderbolt 4, HDMI, an SD card reader, Wi‑Fi 7, and Bluetooth 6.0, supported by a 90 Wh battery. Reviews also emphasize that the dual-screen design brings notable trade-offs in price, weight, and overall portability. A recurring criticism is that the removable keyboard is a weak point in day-to-day usability.

2026 Asus ROG Zephyrus DUO GX651 explained (dual OLED displays)
Source: Ultrabook Review English
All in all, this Asus ROG Zephyrus DUO is an unique offer in the niche of high-performance workstations that can tackle any work activity or modern game, with the versatility of a dual-display format with two full-size 16-inch displays, and the inherent drawbacks that spun from this format: weight, thickness, performance kept in-0check by the need to keep thermal low, and finally, pricing. Expect this to be one of the most expensive notebooks currently on the market, although budget is hardly a concern when shopping for this sort of machinery.
