- ASUS
ZENBOOK
PRO DUO
Laptops with dual
displays are suddenly
all the rage, but the
dazzling Asus
ZenBook Pro Duo (go.
pcworld.com/prod) tells
other contenders to hold
its beer. This engineering marvel somehow
manages to jam a 15.6-inch screen and a
14-inch screen into a 5.5-lb laptop, and
both—yes, both—hit 3,840 pixels of
horizontal resolution for 4K-quality visuals.
(The auxiliary screen is built above the
keyboard, so its vertical
pixel count can’t quite
hit the 4K standard.)
Don’t be fooled by
the delicious eye candy,
though. This laptop’s
built for power users, so
Asus outfitted it with
top-tier hardware,
including up to an 8-core
Core i9-9980HK, 32GB
of RAM, a 1TB SSD, and
a GeForce RTX 2060, as
well as Intel’s newest
WiFi-6/802.11ax controller. Hot damn.
- THE FUTURE OF THE PC?
The Zenbook Pro Duo wasn’t the only
glimpse of a potentially radical future for the
PC at Computex, though. Intel showed off
