content creator, also walked us through the newest ASUS ZenBook Duo 14, and how
this laptop has brought his multitasking skills to a whole new level with the new
Tilting ScreenPad Plus and ScreenXpert User Interface (UI).
ASUS ZENBOOK DUO
14
Evolved ZenBook Duo
Design
ASUS ZenBook Duo 14 is an evolution of the stunning
ZenBook industrial design of its predecessors. The ASUS ZenBook Duo 14 went through an internal layout redesign in order to
enable an ErgoLift and Active Aerodynamic System (AAS) Plus hinge, which lifts
the ScreenPad Plus to a more ergonomic angle, while accommodating a set of
top-end, high-performance components. The asymmetric-circle trademark ZenBook
pattern gives it a modern and sophisticated appearance. The ASUS ZenBook Duo 14
weighs only 1.6 kg and is 16.9 mm slim, which is 50gr lighter and 3 mm slimmer
than the previous generation.
The New Tilting
ScreenPad Plus
Last year ASUS released the unprecedented ScreenPad Plus
on the first-generation ASUS ZenBook Duo, providing a solution that gave users
the ultimate edge in workflow and multi-tasking efficiency. The 2021 ASUS
ZenBook Duo 14 now features a new hinge design that incorporates the Active
Aerodynamic System (AAS) Plus thermal system, which lifts the 12.6-inch
ScreenPad Plus by up to 7 degrees, and the laptop itself off the desk to
optimize cooling performance. A new and improved ScreenXpert User
Interface (UI) and shortcuts along with several new apps enable a more
intuitive interaction between the main display and the ScreenPad Plus. It also
comes with an ASUS Pen that will surely help you create with more ease.
New ScreenXpert
Control Center
ScreenPad Plus now features a brand-new Control Center UI
and is now a lot snappier. Users can adjust the location of the Control Center
and snap it to the right, left, or bottom, according to preference. A new
Control Center button makes it possible to minimize the task bar into a
floating button and enables an auto-hide function which hides the task bar
entirely. Buttons on the new Control Center task bar can also be added or moved
to allow for customization.
Control Panel
To help creators accelerate workflows with the ScreenPad
Plus, ASUS has added a new Control Panel app to the ScreenXpert User
Interface (UI). This function currently supports Adobe Premiere, After
Effects, Photoshop, and Lightroom Classic. When the user opens any of these
apps, the Control Panel app opens a corresponding panel suited to each software
set, enabling commonly used functions such as zoom, brightness, and contrast
via sliders, buttons, and dials. Creators can fully customize the functions and
icon positioning for each of the app specific decks. The Control Panel will
automatically launch the deck assigned to each of the supported apps.

mobile productivity
ASUS ZenBook Duo 14 (UX482EA) is powered by up to an 11th
Generation Intel® Core i7™ processor and up to 4.7 GHz for incredible

The ASUS ZenBook Duo 14 will come in an Intel Evo variant
powered by the 11th Generation Intel® Core™ processors paired with Intel®
Iris® Xe graphics that provides a better computing performance and can enable
FHD gameplay at up to 60 fps with better battery life and mobility than
previously possible. The new processors revolutionize modern creative workflows
with Intel® Deep Learning Boost AI acceleration and AV1 media encoding and
decoding technology. In addition, they integrate the latest, highest-speed
Wi-Fi technology as well as new Thunderbolt™ 4 technology to connect to a
universe of peripherals and enable single-cable access to fast charging, external
monitors, and extended storage.
Powerful NVIDIA®
GeForce® MX450 Graphics
ASUS ZenBook Duo 14 (UX482EG) will also come in another
variant with a powerful NVIDIA® GeForce® MX450 GPU that’s capable of
accelerating workloads. You can expect up to 2 times faster performance over
GeForce® MX250 graphics, as well as faster, smoother gaming and content
creation. When the AIPT mode on the ASUS ZenBook Duo 14 is switched to
Performance mode, the GPU performance can increase by up to 20%, versus
standard mode due to a TGP boost. It also works seamlessly with NVIDIA®
Optimus® technology to give you the perfect balance between long battery life and
performance, only enabling the dedicated MX450 GPU when necessary, disabling it
otherwise to extend battery life.
ASUS ZENBOOK 13 OLED
Sophisticated,
Soothing Design
The chassis and lids of the ASUS ZenBook 13 OLED is made
of diamond-cut aluminum alloy. As with all other ASUS ZenBooks, the unique
concentric-circle ZenBook finish is featured on their lids, presenting a
surface that is soothing and sophisticated in appearance. The ASUS ZenBook 13
OLED weighs 1.14 kg, respectively. Along with a thin and lightweight design, it
features a side profile of 13.9 mm, which results in a sleek form factor that
is easy to carry.
OLED FHD with 100%
DCI-P3 Color Gamut
ASUS ZenBook 13 OLED has an up to 13.3-inch OLED HDR
display that supports 1920 x 1080 resolution and 0.2 ms response time. The
display delivers exceptionally detailed and true-to-life colors, with acinema-grade
100% DCI-P3 color gamut and PANTONE validation. This means that the colors
reproduced on the display are richer and more vivid: it’s ideal for
color-intensive projects, but also enhances any kind of content. designers,
producers, and brands deal with color-critical decisions and communications
each day.
Blue light is known to cause visual
discomfort and disrupt sleep quality. However, due to the nature of the special
organic lighting materials in an OLED display, ASUS
ZenBook 13 OLED emits 70% less harmful blue light1, that makes
it safer for our eyes and even more for children. Plus, they’re also certified
by TÜV Rheinland and SGS.
ASUS ZenBook 13 OLED’s display have
about a 60% higher color volume, offering clarity in display and colors at any
brightness level.
OLED maintain a 100% DCI-P3 color
gamut at both high and low brightness levels, while on a standard LCD laptop
the color gamut is reduced dramatically at low brightness levels. At a low
brightness level, LCD laptops only have an 11% DCI-P3 color gamut, while OLED
laptops maintain a 100% DCI-P3 color gamut.
Compared to average
LCD displays in the market, measuring energy emission of blue light in between
415-455 nm wavelength.
ASUS ZenBook 13 OLED reproduces true blacks
perfectly. This enables extremely crisp and clear images even in the darkest
scenes. This can't be done on an ordinary LED display, because the backlight
can't be turned off with the precision needed. This fact also gives ASUS
ZenBook 13 OLED’s display exceptionally high contrast.
ASUS ZenBook 13 OLED’s display
features a blur free experience with 0.2 ms response time – among the fastest
of any laptop, and 50x faster than the average laptop LCD display. In fact, most
of LCD laptop displays have a response time between 10 and 25 ms. This ensures
smoother fast-paced action scenes, low-latency gameplay, and subtle details
like blur-free text scrolling.
With extended use, certain pixels on
an OLED display may age, resulting in degraded colors (burn-in). Luckily, the ASUS
ZenBook 13 OLED comes with ASUS OLED
Care, which is a screensaver designed to prevent OLED burn-in, as well as to
extend the overall lifespan of the display and prolong battery life which can
be activated through MyASUS App.
