· media · Source ↗

Summary based on the YouTube transcript and episode description.

MrMobile reviews the ASUS Zenbook Pro Duo 2026, a dual 14-inch screen laptop he calls the first two-screen PC a normal person would actually carry.

  • Priced at $2,100–$2,300; dual 14-inch screens, twin Thunderbolts, full-size HDMI, pen support, six-speaker audio.
  • 32% larger 99Wh battery vs. prior model; real-world test: 8 hours of heavy dual-screen use left 15% charge.
  • Removable wireless keyboard charges via pogo pins; chassis is 3.6 lbs, nearly same weight as 2024 predecessor.
  • New Seruminum coating (plasma-treated aluminum with ceramic oxidation layer) mimics stone/pottery texture; 1.7mm key travel exceeds MacBook.
  • Reviewer’s unit had Bluetooth palm-rest connectivity failures when keyboard was undocked — no other reviews confirmed this; may be defective unit.
  • Windows 11 bugs hit dual-screen systems hard: wallpaper overrides, broken settings search, accidental trackpad input from gesture zones.
  • Webcam described as mediocre even by 2016 standards — notable weakness at this price point.
  • Beats Lenovo Yoga Book 9i on portability: folds into one package vs. forcing separate keyboard carry.
