The ZenBook Pro Duo UX581GV has more screens and power than you can shake a stick at. Is it the perfect portable music machine?
This laptop is a sight to behold. You know this is going to be an impressive experience when you unfold the lid and feel the quality of the movement as a slight overhang rotates about the hinge to push the rear up into a comfortable typing angle. The half-screen/half-keyboard arrangement with trackpad placed to the side seems odd at first — but then a screen and a half of 4k UHD OLED desktop beams at you in a gazillion colours, and an involuntary ‘wow’ passes your lips. This is one good–looking machine.
And a quick glance at the ‘Specifications’ box will show you that it’s more than just a pretty face. Current performance benchmarks put it ahead of all current i7 desktop processors and seventh-generation i9 processors. That’s a bit quick for a mobile platform. It also has 45W of TDP heat to get rid of and needs a decent cooling system, which accounts for its reassuringly chunky form.
The keyboard is backlit and has a good feel. Having the trackpad over to the right feels quite natural once you get used to it — assuming you are not a lefty. You also get a digital pen and the most enormous power brick I’ve seen in a long time. This computer is weighty in your hands and solid on the desk. This is not a whip–it–out–on–the–train type of laptop; this wants to sit on a perfectly curated, Instagrammable desk, surrounded by pot plants and a cafetière of artisan coffee!!
