Title: Goodbye, Intel: Asus Zephyrus Duo 15 SE launching exclusively with AMD Zen 3 CPUs and GeForce RTX 3070 and 3080 graphics options

Asus will be dropping last year's Core i9-10980HK in favor of the AMD Ryzen 7 5800H and Ryzen 9 5900HX on its latest dual-screen ROG gaming laptop. It's not coming cheap, of course, with a starting price of almost $3000 USD.

I love how Asus pumps out really innovative laptops since AMD Ryzen 4000, BUT their keyboards are still really bad compared to a budget ThinkPad, and their performance laptops don't look as discreet as a Lenovo Legion 5.

If only the G14 used easier to read fonts, and the G15 would be the same quality as the 14" model.

More like, I wonder if Asus actually sells enough of these weird models to cover R&D costs.

The dead black band in the lower part of the screen is a disgrace. I wouldn't buy such a thing.

If they release a Zenbook Pro Duo with largely the same specs, I'll probably give up Blade 15 and make the dive.

At first I thought nothing of the dual-screen. Then I watched this Zephyrus Duo laptop grow to become one of the most popular gaming and creator laptops in my country where Asus was already quite popular.
They must be doing something right.
