Throughout the last decade, Asus came up with new designs & prototypes like the Taichi, the PhonePad or the water-cooled ROG, among others. None of them stuck, though, in this game of throwing mud at the wall, & yet Hãng Asus didn’t give up.
The ZenBook Duos are their lademo innovation, modern laptops with two displays.

We’ve sầu also reviewed the 15-inch variant in this separate post.

Asus calls this “the laptop of tomorrow”, but I’m not convinced it is.
