AsusTek Computers Inc, a company based in Taiwan, which also happens to be the venue for the ongoing Computex 2019. It's only fair they show some love for the world's largest computer hardware event. And Asus did not disappoint, with two new laptops dubbed the Asus ZenBook Pro Duo and the Asus ZenBook Duo. Both offer a secondary display which Asus calls the ScreenPad Plus.
The ScreenPad Plus can be used as any standard secondary display in Windows. The laptops come with ScreenXpert control software pre-installed which enables multi-screen window, app management and brings in a few extra controls like an App Switcher, View Max, and App Navigator. Then there is the Task Group function to open multiple tasks with a single touch. Plus you get a stylus bundled in the box.
Apart from a pair of 4k displays, the laptop has a lot more to offer. Specs include up to a 9th Gen Intel Core i9 processor, the Nvidia RTX 2060 GPU, up to 32GB of RAM and a 1TB PCIe 3.0 x4 SSD. There is even a number pad that doubles as a trackpad. It also comes with Amazon Alexa voice support with a dedicated light bar at the front, similar to the one on those Amazon Echo speakers.
