CES got this man on the grind.

Dave is the only one who's taking his new year's resolutions seriously.

Product design is alive and kicking! Hats off to the engineers who pulled this through!

1500$ is crazy! I would have bet on 2000 or 2500. The ability to have one of the screens to be at eye-level, out of the box, is amazing.

I love how Asus and Lenovo always come up with innovative products.

Man, this laptop is actually so cool Is there any kind of coating on the bottom screen? It would panic me using this in public incase the surface I’m placing the keyboard on isn’t full clean (like a coffee shop table having little granules of sugar) and then you’re putting the keyboard back onto the screen when you’re done to pack up

Laptop makes Dave happy. Double screen laptop doubles the happiness of Dave. 😂

This is a laptop I would buy in a heartbeat. There are SO many uses for those dual screens. And the thought of sitting in bed with the keyboard and parking the laptop's dual screens somewhere else so I can use it from afar is truly game changing.

I love how the first 2 minutes of the video are like a Day in the Life of Dave2D segment.

I actually went "Oh..." when I saw that stand on the bottom. Honestly, I think this form factor is definitely a strong contender for any future laptop I buy. For productivity, it's unbeatable. Imagine drawing on the bottom screen and having all your references on the top screen. To that end, I would maybe suggest a smaller, but wide stand closer to the main hinge so that the bottom screen can be tilted toward the user for more comfortable drawing.

This feels like the natural direction that laptops should go, just an extra screen for a bit more productivity without the hassle or bulk of extra physical monitors.

They have absolutely nailed a couple of key design innovations on this. The perfectly integrated keyboard, and the rear stand to prop up the second screen are so smart and suddenly make this concept really viable. Previous dual full screen laptops did not have these and it would be difficult to envision actually using them. Turning half a touch screen into a touch keyboard for instance that's just not a good solution. I often set my 12-in tablet up next to my laptop and plug it in as a second screen which works well but is pretty cludgy and I need two laptop stands and a cable to make this setup comfortable. This design is really brilliant and I hope other makers copy and approve upon this.

Dave is killing it, at this rate, we will need DaveTV to keep up

Okay, that detachable keyboard thing is super badass. I haven't wanted a Windows laptop in years-until now.

This is a game changer, amazing, thank you Dave for bringing this one up!

The VAIO Flip was one of my favorite laptops for the fun stuff I could do with it's touch screen such as flipping it over during a presentation. But it only had the one screen. It was my favorite computer so far. I think this one will be my next favorite. Thanks for the demo Dave. Next time definitely give the orthodontist a little love; NDAs are to prevent competition, not customers. ~laughs

This seems as innovative and refined as the Steam Deck. The kind of product that will set the new standard for that medium going forward! Really awesome, thanks for sharing.

Seems like they really thought this one through. I like it. The stand, the rubber protection and the screens make it a pretty neat product.

I've been obsessing over this glaringly obvious idea for a laptop since i first saw the ROG mothership concept. I'm thrilled that a company has actually made it and I'm thrilled to hear it's as excellent in practice as it was in my head lol

I bought a Yoga Book 9i dual screen laptop after seeing one setup in Best Buy. It's amazing. Honestly the number one thing I hated about laptops was giving up the screen space and ergonomics of a desktop. This solves this and looks beautiful.

This is revolutionary IMO. Yes it's been done before, but they are really pioneering the type of tech which will we all be using one day. It's an engineering masterpiece.

This keeps your head looking straight forward half the time. That's better ergonomics than a typical laptop display experience.

You are so good at what you do Dave, I am so honoured to get to see you working your passion all these years.

I just bought a portable usb-c screen which I use with a laptop stand for the same setup. Even that experience convinced me I 100% want this as my next work laptop. Might be a couple of years before I'll replace mine, but damn I hope this takes off.

That's dope. I love monitors oriented this way because looking up and down is much more comfortable than left to right.

I think this is a vast improvement to the 2021 Zenbook duo with the 2nd narrow screen. However I can see the next big thing being foldable laptops with one large screen with the keyboard in-between exactly like this one. The benefits of the foldable form factor over this one featured will be they will be ultra slim, with one uninterrupted display for viewing content on a larger screen. This appears to be the natural progression to the next big thing.

as a ui-ux / frontend developer, this is my dream laptop, I hate working in my laptop because I need minimum of 2 screens so I am reluctant to leave my workspace, this is perfect, if i can connect a portable monitor as a third display this would essentially feel like taking my home office on the go

I love the dual screen with Lenovo and wished that more companies joined the dual-screen laptop space. I’m very happy that Asus joined, and I can’t wait to see the 2nd gen of Lenovo’s. Hoping for more companies to join, as Dave said “this is the future of laptops” I also can see that.

A 16-17 inch version of this would be an instant buy for me.

As someone who purchases laptops for a team, I love this. We use laptops at the office so people can move around during their workday : at their desk, on a sofa, in a meeting room, or at home. But this means they need an extra monitor and keyboard at their desk so they can work ergonomically with their laptops. This reduces the need for an extra keyboard, ensures you always have it with you, and i'm assuming it will be very easy to mount the screens up.

The composition of 10:42 is amazing, gives a 3D vibe, keep up the good work man!

Watched the first draft of this video with all the errors, then deleted. I think you are overdoing it Dave, take a breather 😂 Sick laptop anyway!

I would seriously consider getting a 16 inch version of this if it existed. 14 inch is great for portability but 16 is absolute minimum to consider this a desktop replacement, stick an egpu behind it while it's standing and there we go. So much potential with this form factor.

Nice review man. I don't know if I'll use the secondary screen more when I have it, but it will be a new nice experience.

I'm looking forward to see benchmarks for this one. The configuration is insanely nice for on-the-go editing and if it performs good enough for working on 4K stuff in Premiere, I'm on the boat for this. That machine definitely got me on the hook.

For me the two most impressive improvements over the Yogabook 9i was the built in stand and the bigger form factor (14” vs 13”). With this metal solid stand we won’t need to bring another accessory and 13.3 is just to small now a days. Instant trading for this one!

First I'm seeing dave drop videos back to back. I love it

That is a really cool design. I would consider something like this when I am upgrading. Great work , Asus !!!

I'm currently not in the market for a new laptop, but if I were I'd probably buy this. I *really* hope this sells well and the category catches on. Lenovo did it first (and hats off to them for that), but this feels like a no compromises version. It's the first time in a looong while that a form factor change in the laptop market is genuinely exciting and not just a gimmick.

Dave be trying to take a vacation at this rate.

That's the first time since the MacBook M1 that I see a laptop that really get me excited. I don't plan to buy a new laptop just now, but if I did it would definitely be this one

Wow, this is actually really cool! Dave, your passion is what makes your videos so great!

I was looking extremely looking into the Lenovo Yoga Book 9i but this is an amazing improvement over it. I was wanting a 14 inch duel screen laptop but wouldve settled for 13 inches. I am also happy this has a headphone jack.

Nice. As a YB 9i owner, I can appreciate the different strategies. It's nice to be able store the keyboard in between the monitors, but it seems that you would actually *need* to have the keyboard there as a spacer. Sometimes I just bring the YB without the keyboard if I know I'm going to be typing a lot. I thought the keyboard was going to fold in half and allow you to place it in front of the lower screen.

THIS IS PERFECT! Dual screens, works as a tablet and has good processor and GPU. This is gold for digital nomads. The only thing I would change (really niche) it's the keyboard, I would make a custom ergonomic keyboard like an Atreus with trackpad and trackpoint to attach to it instead of the regular one.

The amount of gear I need in my backpack to replicate this set up... what a well thought out device!

You did a great job conveying entusiasm for the product. Yes I agree it looks good. For me great to be able to demonstrate to someone seeing a second version of the same screeen.

That is legit a really cool laptop. For music production or editing, that's awesome.

As someone who games on his laptop when away from home, my mouth is watering right now. I was thinking of one day buying an external monitor to use. Imaging something like this being a dedicated gaming laptop. It’s an easy sell for me.

I would absolutely love a device like this for dev work with the extra screen. Asus really did put a lot of work into designing it, shame that it won't be completely flat on the table but I can understand why and its only $1499? Glad they didn't price it ridiculously high.

that's the type of stuff that I like. No wonky prototype-like product, solid finished solution with a lot of realistic features. This has so much potential

Interesting concept. Thanks for presenting this Dave.

This looks SICK !!!! I mean, duo display is already on the market, but this laptop is really bringing that functionality and productivity to the market. Yet, just wonder if you use the two displays vertically, arent you blocking the heat dissipation on one side? Will that be an big issue? also..if Asus can see, please also make 15or 16inch version, I will buy without hesitation

I'm convinved Dave is trying to break a guinness record! With this work rate!!

Love the new vibe Dave!

I'm not a laptop person (don't really need the mobility) and I hate the lack of overall upgradability.. But using this as a dual screen on the move coding machine + graphic tablet which doesn't suck (keyboard on the side like a regular workstation)... for that kind of price is REALLY tempting. Like "where is the catch ?" tempting in fact.

I really like it and I wasn't expecting it to be so well priced, I was bracing myself to hear $3000+

I feel like the mirror screen function would be perfect... if only the hinges bent far back enough to have a 'tent' mode. That way you don't have to bump heads to view the screens together.

As someone who works from home & occasionally travels while working on the go whether in a car or in a hotel/airbnb of a different city, a work laptop like this would be so useful! Because when I travel, it's not like I can take my 2 other monitors with me, so I'm stuck working on my small laptop screen only. This laptop would for sure be a game changer.

This makes video editing on the go like train or plane insanely better

Did this just get reuploaded without the bloopers?

This IS awesome! I have almost an identical setup like at 6:40 when I work from home. A 16 inch laptop that I prop up with a stand and then connect a LG Gram 16 portable display that rests on the laptop-keyboard and then connect mouse and normal keyboard. This would make it even easier and portable. Awesome.

This beats all three: laptop + tablet, hybrid laptop and dual screen setups easily as a student / mobile worker. Awesome!

Im a college student and have been using a Tab s8 ultra for hand taking notes along sith a macbook pro for everything else. The android OS culls a lot of useful functionality from the office apps, hence the macbook. To go along with the macbook i have a portable monitor for when I'm studying and need the extra real estate. Of course, switching between typing notes on laptop and handwriting in the same document isnt easy since it takes two devices, but this zenbook will replace all 3 devices and do a much better job at it. Very excited and will definitely be buying it barring any major hardware issues or bugs.

I personally don't have a need for something like this, but this is so freaking awesome!! Legitimately the perfect productivity laptop, especially for the price!

Cool and well executed, but I really hope that they polish the single screen folding version more which has more potential use cases.

Just got a 2-in-1 laptop and see this form factor actually looking really awesome. I want something like this so bad IM CRYING RN!

This is first time I am writing this on any product review... If it comes to India and around similar pricing, I am buying the lower res version for sure... I am a UXer with 10yrs exp.. and this is ❤ it has awesome use cases...

It's better than YogaBook 9i in almost every aspect. The only downside for me is the lack of the tablet mode (360-degree hinge). I like the built-in kickstand and the Bluetooth keyboard very much!

Lowkey thinking of buying this. At that price point? It's kinda hard not to buy it even just to try the experience of owning a device like that. Will have to consult it with the pillow 😅

holy molly that laptop with the detachable keyboard and the solid hinge looks awesome

Really love your enthusiasm for this this product, it is fantastic.

I am curious about the heating aspect of the system. In conventional laptops, when you are doing heavy work, the system will heat up but all that used to happen under the keyboard but now in that situation, it will start heating up the lower display and I am not too sure about long terms durability of that. Please do cover it in your full review

I want this so bad. Just now going on a trip and I have to take a MacBook, a wireless keyboard , a separate monitor , cables to hook it all up, a stand for the monitor AND the screen counts as a separate laptop so TSA makes me put both out and separate every time. You’re telling me I can just have 1 laptop with all of this??????? WHAT and it isn’t just a gimmick WHAT. Like it works???

Dave, I bought the Lenovo right when it launched. had to have it. The joys of being an early adapter! I have had the same issues as you outlined here. It just never felt like a laptop. too much work to set up and use. Never felt good using it on my lap, or even on a plane for that matter, without the stand and keyboard. Looks like Asus has addressed all my issues.

I can hear this man talk about anything 24/7 without getting bored. Keep it up Dave!

Nintendo DS XXXXL?

Product definitely looks great and I can see how you imagine it as a potential future of laptops (i hope so too tbh). One issue I have has a lot to do with the drivers and/or with Windows itself. Although you will probably not switch between modes as fast as you have done in your demonstration, it still feels clunky and not "fluent" enough for my liking. Also would have been great to see that if you for example switch from dual screen with a tap open on each screen to a single screen, that the laptop does the thinking and adjusts both of these tabs on the now single screen. I would love the laptop to work as easily as the newer foldable phones do, where the seamlessness works in harmony with the productivity opportunities this device provides. Looking forward to your full review once it is out!

Patience pays off. I have been putting off on getting a new laptop until i see this device. Perfect.

as a product designer, i love how asus kept in mind every aspect of ux possible with both hardware and software, comendable job asus

A price of $1500 for a machine like this is actually insane. It's obviously not cheap or anything, but for what is on offer, and considering the R&D that must have gone into this, that is a very accessible price point.

This feels like a larger version of what the Surface neo was to be.

I am buying this. This will be my next laptop. Thank you so much Dave.

I had the original yoga book and I LOVED it. i’m very happy to see the evolution going on here.

The USB C port on the keyboard is not JUST for charging. Actually it makes a low latency direct connection. (According to Asus).

9:49 what a sick editing lol

damn man, love the plant tank in the background. Looks amazing.

Yoga book 9i user here. Still loving the dual screens.

4 videos in 24 hours 🤩

how's the ergonomics of the keyboard when detached? does it have stands to lift it up?

The built in stand & full size keyboard with trackpad is literally everything i wanted to change from the lenovo yoga book. I need it 😭

9:49 The mirrored Gandalf laughing scene had some irresistible humor in it

Saw this from Linus. Gotta say, all the times I've seen gimmicks on laptops like the previous Zen stuff where they had a screen but it was not full sized, but small... they always suck. Even the attachable foldable screens, it just never seemed like a polished product. This is the first one I see that actually grabs my attention. Not ultra thick, not folding backwars so one of your screens is unprotected etc. Its pretty cool ngl.

Asus are killing it, once again! Kudos for great (p)review!

Next year I hope we'll have an evolution of the zenbook fold 17 from last year (which was more a concept than a finished product), which offer more possibilities with the full panel (with no cut with the flexible screen)

Dave's love for tech is unbelievable, which gets reflected in his videos.

This is the first dual screen laptop that genuinely has a future. I hope this sticks around!

Just so it's clear, and because Dave doesn't mention it, this is a sponsored advertisement

I'm waiting for your full review & it's gonna influence my purchase

It's making me so happy seeing Dave being happy!
