You can use a laptop stand if you WFH or in an office or an external display. Try these dual-screen LAPtops on your LAP and see how awkward they are for their main use case.

As a former Samsung Galaxy Fold owner who left the bandwagon for the current LG V50 with its detachable Dual Screen case, I can easily vouch that dual display turns out to be far more practical than foldable screen. One of the biggest perk with dual display is that I never have to worry about app incompatibility. Not all apps are developed for larger screens and can't do screen splitting. It's the same story when I tried out both Lenovo X1 Fold and Lenovo Yoga Book 9i. I have more problem using apps/softwares in the X1 Fold than in the Yoga Book 9i. The only thing I would complain about the Yoga Book 9i is the keyboard. Missing out the trackpad is a deal breaker.

thanks for a great review as usual. note that my asus zenbook duo did include the stylus. I use it at the table in the elevated position with the keyboard left on the lower display. You can tap out short searches or whatever when needed and still have the upper display positioned at that super comfortable spot. Of course, a laptop stand would do the same, but...

I classify dual screen laptops in the same category as the foldable phones...pretty cool and futuristic but a bit overkill for most people at the moment

@smittyvanjagermanjenson182 6 күн бұрын

Exactly, these types of systems seem very niche and aren't doing anything more than a basic laptop connected to additional monitors. I see the use case in such a portable device, but not for nearly $2,000 or more. I'd honestly say folding phones are more interesting because you essentially get a mid sized tablet in your pocket, where these laptops are still laptop sized

@adequatequality 6 күн бұрын

@@smittyvanjagermanjenson182 Pretty much yup. I’ve never really looked at my laptop and thought maybe I need an extra screen on the actual unit itself. I opt for an external monitor if I need more screen space

Awesome! Thank you, been waiting for you guys to review the ASUS Duo 2024, as I’m in the market for a couple of new laptops,and had been eyeing up the duo ‘24….so, to get a comparative review with its competitors has been ace. I think the review has put me off these units, I do hope they continue to finesse the concept though.

@rhoderzau 5 күн бұрын

I got the ASUS Duo and the displays were beautiful. It has VRR options which was never advertised and I was happy about. Battery was pretty terrible even running just one of the screens though, so I look forward to a snapdragon version of it or next years intel. I ended up sending it back because if you press on the bottom screen when using it as a track pad or keyboard (physical on top or virtual) it made a cracking noise, even though the screen itself was not damage in any way. Gaming on it was pretty awful (895 cpu) - I had hoped for something similar to a 7840u/780M but it didn't even achieve that.

Hey Josh! Just found your channel and I'm hooked - your laptop reviews are in a league of their own. Quick question: I'm a college student looking for a laptop for programming and note-taking, budget around $1250. Torn between the Zenbook 14 and the Surface with the Plus chip and OLED. Battery life is key, and 120Hz would be sweet. Any thoughts on which might last me longer? Thanks for all the great content! where am from the zenbook never go below 1k usd and the surface would probably cost way more maybe close to 1300 to 1500. Am okay to pay a bit more on a machine that will last me a long time 4 years maybe.

Here in the U.S, I got the Zenbook duo. It has 3200 x 1800 resolution screen, Intel Core Ultra 9 185H, included a backpack, and the Asus pen 2.0. Maybe international units don’t come with it, but it matches what you got with the yoga, except for the mouse, which I’m sure people replaced with a bigger one. Mine was $1699.99 usd.

I would love it if Lenovo did a large folding portable USB-C monitor, with a stand that raises it above my laptop's monitor so i can use both at the same time and have improved ergonomics when travelling. I made my own minimalist stand that i use with a 15.6" USB-C LG monitor that does this and its great, but bigger screen would be better as i really miss my 34" ultrawide when away from my desk for long periods.

@joshwalters3306 6 күн бұрын

Couple of things… I bought the ZenBook Duo from BestBuy and it did come with a pen (as well as a backpack though I don’t really care about either). Another major advantage over the Yoga Book is that the Yoga doesn’t come in a configuration with 32GB of RAM. Also the 185H processor comparison with the 9i is a little unfair because the 9i can only come with a 185H in the 16” model, not the 14”. For me… 16” is a dealbreaker, too big.

There are fantastic portable monitors now, and many are reasonably priced. They add little thickness to what these offer and can be used for multiple other uses. Also, you can buy any laptop you like without being limited to these devices, which are very low-end for their prices.

They need the low power performance and battery life of the Snapdragon chips. Imagine the second gen of these, with the second gen Snapdragon chips that will be announced later this year.... that could be a perfect match and hopefully by then a lot of the apps in beta or "coming soon" for ARM will be production ready!

It is unlikely that such a niche product would have an ARM and Intel option, so good luck waiting for a Snapdragon version.

I love how JOSH mentioned that the devices were averaging ~50% of battery life in the Netflix 4 hour video playback test. Josh probably not mentioning the hours to prevent people from saying that it only played 4K videos for 2 hours before the battery died…Don’t know why companies rushed to release this when they should have just released this with ARM. Intel chips are so bad for this form factor.
