ASUS today launched the revolutionary new Zenbook DUO (2024) UX8406, the world's first ultraportable laptop equipped with two 14-inch 3K 120 Hz OLED touchscreens¹. With its detachable full-size Bluetooth® ASUS ErgoSense keyboard and touchpad, this incredible device provides a versatile workspace for effortless multitasking, with the included ASUS Pen 2.0 and ASUS Vigour Backpack.

Revolutionary design

Zenbook DUO is the world's first dual-screen laptop with twin 14-inch 3K 120 Hz OLED touchscreens, a detachable snap-on magnetic keyboard, and kickstand bundled into one compact, user-centric design – rewriting the rules for on-the-go versatility. With the Intel® Evo™ certification, it expertly combines multitasking versatility with superb mobility in a 3.64 lb-light package.  
The premium ASUS Lumina OLED displays are Dolby Vision® certified, Pantone® Validated and have a cinema-grade 100% DCI-P3 color gamut to ensure vivid, accurate color rendering. They are also VESA DisplayHDR™ True Black 500 certified for the deepest black levels. The touchscreens support high-precision stylus input using the included 4096 pressure-level ASUS Pen 2.0, and the built-in ScreenXpert software enables smartphone-like multitouch gesture support for intuitive operation: users can launch a virtual keyboard, maximize a window, and much more with simple multi-finger gestures.
Zenbook DUO’s detachable keyboard fits between its dual screens for practicality when carrying. This design enhances portability and convenience, allowing users to seamlessly use or charge the keyboard at any time without extra settings. The pogo-pin connectors on the edge of the lower screen ensure hassle-free docking, with auto-positioning magnets on the pogo pins and corners of the second screen to further enhance the overall user experience.

Effortlessly versatile

ASUS laptops feature user-centric designs that set them apart from the crowd. Uniquely, Zenbook DUO is supplied with an ultra-quiet, full-size ASUS ErgoSense Bluetooth keyboard with an integrated touchpad, which combined with a lay-flat 180° display hinge and convenient built-in kickstand allows for several versatile user modes and angles. Additionally, the intuitive ScreenXpert software allows for easy control of the display contents in all modes.

• Dual Screen mode: When used with the wireless keyboard, this mode provides 19.8 inches of screen real estate, which can be used as a single expansive screen via the ViewMax feature. Alternatively, the twin 16:10 displays can be used independently, with easy window management via the App Switcher feature that puts users in full fingertip control of app windows, reducing interruptions and helping users maintain focus on the task at hand.
• Desktop mode: The laptop can be used with the hinge aligned vertically for side-by-side portrait screens. Combined with the wireless keyboard, this makes it perfect for programmers, researchers, writers, and those who need access to large data sheets. Users can display productivity apps on one screen while the other shows reference materials, documentation, or research sources. Alternatively, using the ViewMax feature they can display content across the entire screen width, giving them a massive 19.8-inch display.
• Laptop mode: The ASUS ErgoSense Bluetooth keyboard and touchpad can be perfectly magnetized onto the lower display for a traditional laptop-style experience, replete with a 14-inch display and tall 16:10 aspect ratio. A pogo-pin connector automatically charges the keyboard when in use. Alternatively, the lower screen can be configured as a full-size virtual keyboard if required, so users don't have to travel with the keyboard if space is tight.
• Sharing mode: Allows easy sharing of content in meetings and business presentations. The 180° hinge allows the screens to lay flat so everyone can view the screen without having to huddle around, fostering better engagement and discussion. Additionally, content on the upper screen can be rotated by 180° if needed.

Supremely capable

Despite its ultra-compact form factor, Zenbook DUO doesn't sacrifice performance or functionality. It's powered for productivity by up to the latest generation Intel® Core Ultra 9 H-processor combined with up to 32 GB of LPDDR5x RAM and 1 TB PCIe 4.0 SSD. The redesigned 75 Wh high-capacity battery has an eco-friendly extended lifespan that supports up to 20% more charging cycles than the previous generation². As an Intel® Evo™ Edition laptop, Zenbook DUO wakes instantly, charges ultra fast, and delivers all-day battery life.
Intel® Core™ Ultra processors feature Intel's first integrated Neural Processing Unit (NPU), which delivers low-latency AI computing to accelerate multitasking, making Zenbook DUO highly efficient for work, creativity, and entertainment. All this enables users to seamlessly manage complex workloads and enhance productivity. And with the huge screen real estate available on Zenbook DUO, two full-size 14" displays, users can effortlessly run all their favorite productivity apps — and keep them in view — at the same time.
The 0.78”-thin chassis has no compromises in I/O capabilities either, with two Thunderbolt™ 4 and Type-C compatible ports, a USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A port, an HDMI® 2.1 (TMDS) port, and a convenient 3.5 mm audio jack, so bulky docking stations or multiple adapters are no longer a requirement when traveling. For unrivaled entertainment capabilities, Zenbook DUO features a powerful Harman Kardon-certified audio system with Dolby Atmos® certification for immersive multidimensional spatial sound.
ASUS is committed to circular design and minimizing its impact on the environment, and Zenbook DUO is constructed from 90% post-industrial-recycled (PIR) magnesium-aluminum alloy. It massively exceeds ENERGY STAR® power-efficiency requirements by up to 47.6%, and all paper packaging is made from 100%-recyclable FSC™ Mix-certified paper. Stringent durability testing to the strictest US MIL-STD-810H standards ensures that Zenbook DUO is reliable in everyday use and maximizes the device's lifespan to enhance its sustainability.
