Engadget Review
The ASUS ROG Zephyrus Duo 15 is the first laptop to really make good use of a second display. That gives it not only a strong wow factor but makes it easier to justify the extra expense. ASUS backs it up with top flight components that help it fly for gaming and content creation tasks. The downsides are mediocre battery life, a lack of key ports and a high price tag. If you can afford it, though, you’ll be the envy of all your friends, whether in a creative or gaming environment.
It’s blazing fast and the tilting screen is actually useful.

It's priced out of reach for the average user, but we applaud this peek into a possible future for gaming notebooks.Tom's Hardware80Two-Screen CoolIt’s far from cheap, but Asus’ dual-screen ROG Zephyrus Duo 15 gaming laptop adds a handy, eye-catching second screen while improving cooling and keeping fan noise down in the process. If it weren’t for the awkward input devices and the lack of a webcam, this would be a near-perfect portable gamer.PC World90Two screens and a whole lot of speedThe Asus ROG Zephyrus Duo 15 GX550 is a dual-screen laptop that gets it right. From the sturdy tilting mechanism to the strong performance, it's a great package , though it comes at a price.T380An awe-inspiring dual-screen gaming laptopThe Asus ROG Zephyrus Duo 15 is an impressive but not a perfect laptop for gamers and creative professionals – it scores highly in performance, but can get hot and loud. That second screen could be the main reason why people do or don't buy this gaming laptop.TechRadar70Is this the future?The Asus Zephyrus Duo GX550 is an absolute powerhouse of a gaming laptop with one of the most imaginative designs we've seen in a while. However, a couple of missteps and a high price make it hard to recommend to anyone but a very specific type of user.PC Gamer80ASUS ROG Zephyrus Duo 15 ReviewA beautiful-looking laptop, with stellar performance and build quality, but whose main selling point is of dubious use in the gaming world to all but the super-monied few.Digital Trends70Dual-screen gaming in your lapThe Asus ROG Zephyrus Duo Pro 15 does dual-screen PC gaming unlike any other laptop.
