總部位於台灣台北市的電腦及電腦零組件、智慧型手機、周邊設備製造商ASUS，從其筆電品牌「ZenBook」系列中發表了新型筆記型電腦「ZenBook Duo UX481」和「ZenBook Pro Duo UX581」。
32:9的第二螢幕
說到雙螢幕筆電，過去的主流是觸控板部分採用液晶顯示，或在鍵盤後方搭載約6吋的副螢幕。
但「ZenBook Duo UX481」和「ZenBook Pro Duo UX581」在鍵盤後方搭載了與主螢幕相同寬度和橫向解析度的32:9顯示器。
這塊被稱為「ScreenPad Plus」的螢幕定位不是「副螢幕」而是「第二螢幕」。
用途無限的「ScreenPad Plus」
第二螢幕「ScreenPad Plus」支援觸控，除了可作為直覺操作的區域使用外，還能與轉軸另一側的主螢幕組合成一塊大螢幕使用。
由於解析度與主螢幕相同，「ScreenPad Plus」可不受限制地顯示任何內容，完全根據用戶需求靈活運用。
推出兩種尺寸
提供14吋的「ZenBook Duo UX481」和15.6吋的「ZenBook Pro Duo UX581」。
除了尺寸差異外，15.6吋的「ZenBook Pro Duo UX581」主螢幕為3,840×2,160解析度的OLED面板，ScreenPad Plus為3,840×1,100解析度的液晶面板，兩者皆支援觸控。處理器最高搭載Intel® Core™ i9-9980HK，記憶體最高32GB，顯示卡為NVIDIA® GeForce RTX™ 2060。
鍵盤右側的觸控板搭載最新版ASUS NumberPad，可作為數字鍵盤使用。
14吋的「ZenBook Duo UX481」主螢幕解析度為1920×1080 Full HD液晶，ScreenPad Plus為1,920×515並支援觸控。處理器為Intel® Core™ i7，記憶體最高16GB，顯示卡為NVIDIA® GeForce® MX250。
搭載高品質音效
音效部分與知名音響品牌Harman Kardon合作調校。
這使它能提供超越其他筆記型電腦的音質表現，無論是播放音樂或遊戲時都能獲得沉浸式體驗。
其他多項精心設計
視訊鏡頭採用支援Windows Hello生物特徵臉部辨識的IR CAMERA，即使在暗處也能快速登入。
內建Alexa語音助理，可透過聲控播放音樂、查看新聞或隨時獲取所需資訊。
採用當掀開螢幕時機身後方會抬起的ErgoLift轉軸設計，同時提升散熱效率。
如此面面俱到的筆電可說是絕無僅有。
發售日期與價格
「ZenBook Pro Duo UX581」和「ZenBook Duo UX481」預計於2019年第三季上市，目前尚未公布售價。
除了雙螢幕特色外，兼具高效能與多功能的「ZenBook Pro Duo」將成為電競、影音編輯、音樂製作、設計等多種領域的理想筆電。
