The Asus ROG Zephryus Duo is unlike any other gaming laptop I’ve ever seen. It’s one of the first wave of dual-screen gaming laptops coming out over the course of this year, and it’s both baffling and beautiful in equal measure. It’s beautiful because the engineering on its secondary 14.1in display is just so damn gorgeous. Seriously, I made a GIF of its sturdy, rock solid hinge and everything and it still gets my heart racing even now, three weeks after I got to see an early sample of it in the flesh.
The thing is, though, who in their right mind is going to spend £3000 on this Intel 10th Gen Comet Lake / Nvidia RTX 2080 Super laptop when it launches this July just to get its fancy second screen? It all depends on whether Asus can make good on their promise to get some of today’s top developers on the case to make special custom game features for it.
