Reviews for the Asus ZenBook Duo 14 UX482EA
Asus is starting off CES 2021 with a bang by improving upon its dual-screen 14-inch subnotebook with brighter displays, new hinges, and faster performance. It mostly works if you can deal with some inherent limitations.

The second display isn’t always perfect, but having a functional small second monitor with your laptop at all times is a highly compelling proposition, works as intended most of the time, and is hard not to appreciate. We think the MacBook Pro and XPS 13 have the edge if you are looking for sheer performance for money, but if this two-screen design appeals to you, it’s well worth its reasonable price. The possible productivity advantage—and the cool factor—can't be measured in mere benchmarks.

The Asus ZenBook Duo 14 continues to redefine what a laptop is and what it looks like, for the better. And we're a bit shocked that the ZenBook Duo is priced at $200 less than a similarly configured XPS 13 ($1,499), which is similar in speed and endurance. If only it had a little more room for your wrists, and was easier to use in your lap.

What's impressive about the ZenBook Duo UX482 is how it manages to cram two displays and high-end specifications (for an ultraportable notebook, at least) into a body that's still really quite portable. ASUS hasn't shared availability or pricing details yet. But seeing that the last ZenBook Duo had a launch price of S$2,198, we fully expect this new model to cost more than that.

The Asus ZenBook Duo is a great all-round Ultrabook, but the ScreenPad arguably adds more issues than benefits. While the second touchscreen is great for multitasking with apps such as Slack, Spotify and Premiere Pro, it also pushes the keyboard down to a more awkward position, limiting the appeal of this design.

The ZenBook Duo 14 UX482 is not your regular 14-inch laptop. The main selling point is the fact that it comes with two screens, and that's paired with an alright hardware implementation of the Intel Tiger Lake platform that performs well and runs cooly, as well as long battery life and good connectivity. At the same time, there are some important trade-offs with this form-factor, which will impact your experience with the laptop. We'll get in-depth in the detailed review down below.

Despite a few shortcomings, I still found the ASUS ZenBook Duo UX482 still offers some really great specs and can certainly handle your mostly anything you try to do and complete, however if your after something that can handle some games or be a gaming and work laptop, you might want to looks elsewhere.

The UX482 improves on its predecessor in every way. The ScreenPad is more useful, the machine is slimmer while retaining great build quality and the CPU is faster. Elsewhere, the UX482 is more mixed. The touch displays offer great quality and versatility, battery life is impressive, and the Asus is cheaper than its rivals, but the second screen hinders comfort, and more performance can be found elsewhere. If you’re going to make ample use of that second screen, then those compromises are worth it – but if the ScreenPad isn’t a vital addition to your workflow then conventional laptops will deliver a more comfortable experience.

The Asus ZenBook Duo 14 UX482E is the company's latest dual-screen laptop. To Asus' credit, it's worked hard to ensure that the second screen is more than a mere curio, and it's now more useful and customizable than ever. New 11th-gen Intel processors, plenty of RAM and a sleek design make this a brilliant premium laptop, but it won't be for everyone.

ASUS's ZenBook Duo isn't perfect, but it's surprisingly compelling and a notable upgrade over last year's model. It's no wonder why it won our Best of CES 2021 award for PCs: the Duo is genuinely innovative in a time when many ultraportables are starting to feel stale. Dual-screen notebooks aren't for everyone just yet, but ASUS has made a stronger case for why you would want one.

What I like most about the ZenBook Duo 14 is that you really can't tell from the outside of the laptop what you'll see when you lift the lid. Despite opening and closing it countless times at this point, I still get a kick out of seeing its secondary 12.6-inch touchscreen rise from above the keyboard to meet the bottom of the main 14-inch display. One screen flows into the next and, with the help of Asus' software, that slim display becomes more useful than you might think (and certainly more useful than Apple's Touch Bar). There are a few compromises that come with the design, but they might just be worth it.

It was 2019 when I bought my first dual-screen laptop. The ASUS ZenBook Pro Duo was focused on creative professionals and so entranced my multitasking soul that I refused to hand it over to Daniel Rubino for the MrMobile/Windows Central collab review we'd planned. In 2020, ASUS improved its two-screen approach and brought it over to the gaming world with the Zephyrus Duo 15, an absolute monster that made it possible for me to play everything from Star Wars Squadrons to Cyberpunk 2077. And for 2021, ASUS is spreading those improvements all across its new laptop lineup – including the ZenBook Duo 14 (2021), a more affordable double display notebook for those of us who like to “stay Mobile.” Join me for the ASUS ZenBook Duo 14 Review, 2021 Edition – and then check out David Cogen's Real World Test featuring the very same ZenBook Duo 14, at TheUnlockr!

What is clear without spending more time is that the build feels high quality, comes off as highly advanced, and has the features I’d want from this type of laptop. The jury is out on performance (though it should be solid based on the components) and battery life for now, but we’ll have those for you in the full review. What's here is very promising, so check back soon.

All in all, Asus seems to have refined the design of its original ZenBook Duo series, and the new model should be more practical for everyday use. Information about pricing and availability in India isn't known yet. Stay tuned to Gadgets 360 for news of when it launches in India.
