ASUS does remarkable things in the gaming laptop industry, with its ROG Zephyrus Duo 16 showcasing two displays on a single machine to help with productivity and gaming. Unfortunately, a product like this is not available for cheap, but on Amazon, it is down by $320. The 16-inch notebook is now available for $2179.99, and for those of you who still think it is expensive, wait till you hear what it packs on the inside and outside.
First, let us talk about the exterior, with the ROG Zephyrus Duo 16 sporting an above-average build quality, and its primary 16-inch panel has been validated by Pantone for creative professionals. It has a 16:10 aspect ratio, which means that its resolution measures 1920 x 1200, supporting a 165Hz refresh rate with a 3ms response time. Not just this, but you also get a secondary 14-inch 4K touchscreen panel which you can use to drag certain windows to get more work done efficiently.
Underneath the hood, you have an elaborate cooling solution, which tames the Ryzen 7 6800H CPU. The processor sports eight cores and 16 threads, with its performance supplemented by the RTX 3060 with 6GB of GDDR6 VRAM. ASUS claims that its unique gaming laptop runs quieter while keeping thermals in check. The other specifications include a generously-sized 90Whr battery, along with 16GB of DDR5 RAM operating at 4800MHz, and a 1TB PCIe Gen 4 SSD. You can add another Gen 4 SSD for more storage.
Other goodies include a Wi-Fi 6E, Bluetooth 5.2, 100W USB-C fast-charging, and an assortment of ports ranging from HDMI 2.1, multiple USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C ports that also support DisplayPort 1.4a, a microSD card reader, and more. If you want to remain engaged in media consumption, there are a total of six immersive speakers, including two force-canceling woofers for optimizing audio quality. There are also three microphone arrays present so the other person can hear you, even with the fans ramped up.
There is no telling when this gaming laptop deal will be off the table, but if you want something that does everything that is expected from a high-end machine while sporting a secondary display and being portable, the ASUS ROG Zephyrus Duo 16 should be your daily driver.
