ASUS ZenBook Duo UX482EAR 14.0" Dualscreen Full HD Laptop with Touchscreen (Intel i7-1195G7, 16GB RAM, 1TB PCIe SSD, Windows 11, ScreenPad Plus with Stylus Pen) Intel EVO Certified

My venerable Huawei laptop (AMD Ryzen 5 based) quietly handed its cap in after 6+ years of faithful service - and the cost of repair was unrealistic. So, I wanted a more powerful replacement device - but at a reasonable price. This laptop appeared to fit the bill - especially at a discounted price of £699 (and the Amazon offer of 12 interest free monthly payments) - EXCELLENT! Despite the reasonable price, with 16GB of memory, an Intel i7 processor and a 1TB SSD, this laptop is no slouch. OK, everything is not quite state of the Art. The processor is an 11th generation device (the latest ones from Intel are gen 13), the SSD is PCIe generation 3 rather than the newer gen 4 and, as per the listing, this model has Intel Iris Xe graphics rather than a dedicated GPU. That said, the laptop doesn't hang about. It converts video files about 10x quicker than my old PC. Also, with WiFi-6, file transfers to our NAS are much quicker too - I am happy with that! The PC arrived well packaged complete with a leatherette sleeve and stylus. Build quality is excellent and there is thankfully little bloatware. I just had to remove the abominably expensive Office 365 (I prefer MS Office 2021 Professional) and the godawful MacAfee paraphernalia. I reluctantly use Norton Security as it's free with our BT Broadband and, if managed, isn't too intrusive. I use Paragon Hard Drive Manager 17 Advanced - which is excellent for backups, creating recovery media and for disk cloning etc. I also use a few different media editors to manage the family Plex server I run on our TerraMaster NAS. I didn't buy the laptop for its second screen but I find it surprisingly useful for cross referencing purposes etc. It took me a while to get used to the keyboard (with no wrist support) but it works fine. The touch pad is squeezed in to the right of the keyboard which some may find a tad odd. It doesn't bother me as I use a Bluetooth mouse and the touch screen. The stylus is easy to use and the AAAA batteries it requires are readily available on Amazon. The included foldable laptop stand works a treat and is unobtrusive when folded away. The 1TB SSD is an SK Hynix device and I downloaded their SSD Manager App to keep an eye on things. It showed the SSD as being brand new with zero errors. CrystalBenchMark showed the device to perform as advertised - see attached screenshot (includes both displays). This is an SSD known to be frugal as regards its power requirements, give good performance for its price and, to run relatively cool. It can be upgraded by the user. There are a number of YouTube videos on the subject. The 16GB of main memory should be more than adequate for most users. However, note that this RAM is soldered in - so cannot be user upgraded. I ran NovaBench (see 2nd screenshot) and the results were good. As anticipated, with no GPU, the weaker aspect is the Intel Iris Xe graphics capability. However, as I am not an avid gamer, that is not an issue. Both displays are clear and precise, more than adequately meeting my requirements. I believe the BIOS settings can be used to allocate more of main memory to the display if required. There are 2x Thunderbolt-4 and a USB-A 3.2 port so there's plenty of connectivity. I already have a PD power pass-through docking station which gives all the other connections I need including an RJ45 LAN port. My only minor gripe concerns the twin cooling fans being surprisingly noisy when they kick in. That said, I quickly got used to them and they normally drop out after a few seconds. There is an option in MyAsus to reduce fan noise by lowering their spin speed. Anyway, checking on the temperatures, neither the CPU nor the SSD get unreasonably hot. I did see that the MyAsus App shows the laptop as having its 12 month warranty starting last May (I bought it in December) and ending in May 2024. However, I am not particularly concerned as, when I queried it, Amazon confirmed that the laptop is covered by their own 2 year warranty from date of purchase. So, I presume Amazon bought a 'job lot' of these laptops from ASUS earlier in the year at a bulk discount - and hence their reasonable price now. In summary, I am rather chuffed with my purchase. It's an excellent laptop that meets my needs at a very reasonable price. The more I use it, the more I appreciate it 😊 😃

I had been intrigued by the ZenBook Duo for a while, but looked at it as a bit of gimmick. When a needed a new Laptop, principally to use in meetings, I realised that the dual screen was ideal as it allowed me to follow the agenda or presentation and make in-meeting notes all at the same time without having to decipher my hand made notes afterwards. When I received the new Laptop, it more than lived-up to it's expectations. Not only did I get a fast laptop with a bright, high resolution touch screen display - but I got a Laptop with two of them! The ZenBook Duo is a dream to use, and although you get a very nice stylus as well, I find that the screens are so responsive, I hardly need to use it. I had worried that I might not be able to read the 14" screen easily, let alone the second screen, but because of the combination of high resolution, high background illumination and good contrast there has never been a problem, even in brightly lit environments. I have had this Laptop for about five weeks now, and it still blows my socks off! From its sleek lines, its tilted second screen and its gently illuminated keyboard - it just ticks all the boxes. I would thoroughly recommend this Laptop. My only regret is that I didn't buy it sooner!

While the laptop has some positive aspects, such as its sleek design and speedy performance, I'm disappointed to report that the battery life does not live up to the advertised claim. The product description boasted an average battery life of 17 hours, but in my experience, it lasted only around 2 hours on average. This significant discrepancy between the advertised and actual battery life was quite disappointing, as I relied on the laptop for extended use on-the-go. I hope the manufacturer takes note of this discrepancy and improves their product descriptions for future customers. Really 🙁 disappointed.

Great laptop, good battery life, dual (or quad in my case :) screen, picture taken with extra aftermarket displays) screen makes it easy to work on. If you travel, but still need multi screen set-up, this is the way to go. Performance adequate for everything (maybe heavy gaming would need something more), I did not notice any issues running additional screens, crispy graphics, comfy, illuminated keyboard, great value for money. Definitely recommend!

Really love this laptop, it’s unique having two screens and works well. Some people have said the keyboard is small but it’s not that small. And the track pad is off center to the right. The only time this would or could be a problem is if you’re left handed (I’m not) and not a problem in fact it’s better to the right. The i7 chip is fast enough for most people and the 1tb SSD drive is fast. Topped off with 16 gb RAM and a sharp screen what’s not to like. Very well built as well.

I wanted a laptop that is ultralight for when I travel but I need power for photo editing and this one hit the spot ! Pros: very good ips screen on par with oled, second screen is very useful, fast enaugh to run photoshop and lightroom classic well for my photography, battery does last a lot for youtube and movies. Cons: be careful with the usb c charger (only use the one that it came with) as this laptop can have issues with aftermarket chargers (bricks the ports..known issue) Would I buy it again ?? Yes !!!

As much as I liked the Zenbook for office work, with the uniqueness of dual screens, for me the screen resolution wasn't enough. The top screen being full hd is a pleasant enough screen, it's the secondary screen being half full hd is the issue, small text is very pixelated and you find yourself squinting at text. It looks like a budget phone screen and not premium. Also found the processor a little weak on apps. I returned the laptop and paid a little extra for the oled pro version so far it's been brilliant. Asus did make sacrifices to keep the cost down on this model, the stylus is not rechargable and an older style, the kick stand and how the secondary screen tilts is different, the io ports are in a better position. CPU is a massive cut back. Pay for what you get.

This is just an epiphany: I'd wanted one since the start of my course but held back until I felt I deserved a reward and am so glad I did. This is a HUGE spend for me (£750 from Amazon with no power cable) but it's worth every single penny. Studying and working on assignments is so helped by having that second screen; I know Windows will let you split your screen but it's not a patch on this. It's quite heavy but it's also quite brilliant. Honestly, buy it. It sounds like an expensive gimmick but it's actually my pride and joy now, which for someone who lives to knit and drink tea and is allergic to technology is quite a big thing. No, you can't have mine. Buy your own and thank me later 🤗

الكمبيوتر ولا غلطه ، بس حبيت انوه لحاجه ، ترا ذاكرة الفيديو (1 جيجا) يعني يشغل لك العاب متوسطه الى قويه شوي ، لكن الالعاب اللي مثل "رزدنت ايفل و ابليغ تيل" مايشغلهم ، لكنه حق كد ، مررا فادني بالبرمجه واللعب والتصاميم والرسم ، اذا كنت قيمر انصحك تاخذ تجميعات بي سي افضل ، لكن اذا كنت تحب تلعب العاب متوسطه الى قويه شوي وتبي تصمم وتمنتج فيديوهات او اذا كنت مصور او مبرمج او رسام ، مرررا ينفع لك هذا الكمبيوتر ، عندي صار له شهر واذا جيت بشغله ، احسب لك 5-3 ثواني ويشتغل على طول ، وفيه بصمه للوجه ومعه قلم "بس مافيه حساسيه ضغط" والشاشتين كلهم لمس ، حجمه رهيييب مرا ، واللون يفتح النفس ، "الكيبورد مايجي عربي يعني لازم تاخذ لزقات الكيبورد هذمك" لكن يكتب عربي لاتخافون 😅، يمديك تحول الاب توب عربي من الاعدادات بسرعه ، طبعًا انا اول ما اشتريته مارضي يشبك النت حاولت مليون مره وحسبته خربان 🥲، لكن بعد محاولات كثيره شبك. ، عادي لانه توه جديد ، الشاحن حقه تايب سي ، ويمديك تشحنه باي شاحن تايب سي غير حقه ، المنافذ فيه منفذ يو اس بي واحد بس مع منفذين تايب سي ، ومنفذ للذاكرة، يعني انصحك تشتري الوصله اللي فيها 7-6 منافذ ، وبس والله ، الكمبيوتر خرافي وانصح فيه وبشده!!

I received a brand new, sealed package. Laptop works perfectly. Battery life is a little worse than expected, but still okay. Delivery took a long time, if you're worried about it, don't be, Amazon will make sure they fulfill the delivery. Update! After using for a few weeks, the battery life has improved.

I innicialy got this computer because it would work well for the 2 things I need it for, 1. School work / productivity 2. Gaming. I did spend a lot of time choosing between this and a MacBook Pro with m2 (M3’s wasn’t out when I bought it) I did end up choosing the zen book as I still couldn’t believe that they would sell a 2 screen computer for that price. So I got it.. unboxed it came with the essentials.. charger, ASU’s pen, of course the computer itself and I was very surprised to find out it came with 3 months of free adobe creative cloud witch I defenetly enjoyed a lot.. Now past almost 8 months And here is my review about it. The computer works still well.. not very satisfied with the battery life as if this is what you’r looking for then just get a Mac, it also does work well (battery wise) if you have a charger on you witch has become an hobby to have one on me wherever I go with this computer. I’m pretty happy with the core which is an i7 11th gen even tho I would have enjoyed an 12th or 13th gen. Ram is okay even tho in the title of the computer on Amazon it did say it had 32gb ram even tho it has 16. Kinda disappointing to know. Anyways the 2nd screen is kind of useless for mess I just bought it for multitasking and the annoying thing is that it also takes sooooooo much battery. Microphone is ok, not that happy with the webcam but it’s like a 2019 intel MacBook Pro.. I was decently amazed by the speaker quality witch was actually pretty good.. but hey this computer runs on windows and that’s what I wanted. As a conclusion if you are looking for a powerful not heavy and battery efficient with a good webcam computer just get a Mac. But on the other side if you want a good to multitask VERY heavy but powerful and windows running computer, I recommend this, personally. After a long time I still am thinking about regretting getting this computer and just getting a Mac instead.

exactly as the description, very fast shipping. its worth mentioning this is I7 evo, so it is energy efficient. Great company and great laptop

The laptop is amazing I highly recommend it it’s worth buying
