Asus Zenbook Duo UX482 (User Review) - Hands-on and detail close up look
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 14 авг 2024
- Close up look at my new shiny Asus Zenbook Duo UX482 14” dual-screen laptop while I talk through my usage experience and how functional the second screen really is.
In this video, I focus on things that are not covered in other videos like USB C port misalignment, keyboard typing sound and backlit keys, hinge mechanism, ScreenPad Plus second screen functionality, useful features of the ScreenXpert software that compliments the ScreenPad Plus, touchpad demonstration (button clicks, two fingers drag and zoom), Australia version power (brick) adapter, and the case and active stylus pen that comes with the laptop.
⚠️Correction at 11:53. The stylus uses a AAAA battery, not AAA battery ⚠️

Greetings.
No loud shiny lighting setup or thousand dollar camera to record.
No yo yo yo whats sup language.
No benchmarks
No sponsorship
Pure simple straight forward usability. I feel less is more. With these modern you tubers I end up buying things above my budget most of the time. Your voice and explanation is soothing and simple. I got more than I wanted. Your review still single handedly beats all the reviews and reviewers on youtube platform competing with major players.
Thank-you for this.
More power to you.
Good luck :)
@kc, Oh Wow wow wow! No words can describe how much I appreciate this comment of yours. You have so eloquently described my videos that even I myself did not realise all these. It's difficult to get feedback and many times I have wonder why subscribers watch and subscribe to my channel. I don't think my videos are any good because they are low production videos. Little did I realised it's the simplicity that made my video unique and appealing. I woke up this morning and saw your comment, and you have made my day.
Thank you so much for this encouraging comment that came at the right time. It's not easy to be a dad, work full-time and still make videos on RUclips which I love doing.
Hey KC, you have given me inspiration for another video idea. Can I get your permission to make a promotional video for my channel using your above comment? Would you like me to mask out your RUclips Icon and name or happy for me to show your "KC" name? Thank you in advance.
@@SkyPerspective Hello Sky Perspective's, I am glad my comment and feedback made your day. I can understand how cumbersome and difficult it can get with production value. Being a filmmaker and photographer myself I am aware the kind of hard work it takes to produce good content. I believe no matter how much competition is, a good content needs no production value. Basic message should be delivered, rest the world takes care of. I seriously want Asus to take note of this review and you for sure. Even I have learnt so much from you as being youngster. You have conveyed something more than the product review. I am sure a lot of people agree with me who have commented.
Yes please you can use my comment however you wish. Name is "Kunal" .
Everything starts small and with the right support keeps on progressing. No matter what happens don't stop, keep moving slow and steady. Your approach is rare and unique most of the channels lack it and we need more like you.
I wish all the support and wishes for your channel to grow.
Have a rocking day :)
I can't back this up enough.
It just feels like every other RUclipsr only cares about some weird dumb lingo and their precious B-rolls with multi-thousand dollars wasted on equipment. Everything feels so artificial, staged, fake.
Your review is straight down to the point, to the product, to what this is really about. No fancy and expensive stuff, no faking, no staging, just the pure sheer content in the true spirit of what RUclips once was.
I've got over 70 videos watched on the ZenBook Duo over the last 2 days. I could have narrowed all that down to one had I found this video of yours earlier. Congratulations.
@@gabrielgaspar3744 Oh wow, what a supportive encouragement. This comment thread is giving me lots of insight into why my audience are watching my video and how I should focus my content. I do my best to only showcase products that I use for myself which many of us can relate to.
This review is the best one out of all other Zenbook duo reviews, thank you! This exact video is the one helped me to pull the trigger
Oh wow Peter, thanks for such a huge compliment! There are much bigger channels doing review of the same Zenbook duo laptop. I wonder what in this video made it stand out, and helped you made the decision. Thank you so much for your support. ❤️ This makes all my hard work worthwhile.
@@SkyPerspective sorry for late reply but I'm happy to tell you ive been using this zenbook for 2 months and am very happy with it. The reason your video is best because you focus a lot on business side (MS Office) While a lot other channels focus mostly on multimedia and designer apps which i never use!
@@peterchan912 Such valuable feedback. This confirms I am on the right track. I focus a lot of my videos such as these and my keyboard and mice videos for fellow office workers like myself. Thanks a lot.
@@SkyPerspective I removed the plastic and its still not working what do I do?
@@active_commenter5348 Which plastic are you referring to? Do you mean the plastic battery barrier in the stylus?
This is the exact kind of review I was looking for before purchasing this laptop. Thank you so much!
Thats wonderful. Thanks for letting me know.
Did you buy it and do you like it?
@@texsion I did! I love it. It's such a beast!
That is the best laptop review I ever saw! You deserve more views! I'm going to buy this laptop in few days!
Wow, thanks! Glad you found this video useful.
Simply love your videos!!! Especially the zenbook duo 14 series. Congrats and thank you very much for sharing with us. Keep safe & healthy. See ya, blue skies 🤙🏻🍀📸
Hi Newton, it feels great to get such encouraging feedback from you. Appreciate it. I enjoy making videos for all of you.
This is a really good review of a great product. I'm a big Asus fan and it's nice to see their continued innovation. Great video. Sending high fives from the UK!
Hi, thanks for your comment. Now that you mentioned it, I do have another 15 years old Asus 14 laptop sitting in my cupboard somewhere. Would be nice if I had included that in the video. Yes I am a big fan of Asus too. My desktop computer is made up of Asus motherboard and graphics card too.
Thanks, that was so helpful! I agree that this is the best review of the Asus Duo UX482 out there.
Thank you so much. I didn't know so many of you will find this video so useful. Very happy to know. Makes all my efforts worthwhile.
best of the best reviews about this product , thank you so much
Wow, thanks for such a great feedback. So glad my video is useful to so many of you.
A no frills, really useful tips and information given video. I have only just purchased this laptop and yet to set it up! will use your video for reference while i get used to all the features the laptop offers. Thank you.
Thanks for letting me know and commenting. Enjoy the laptop. It's one of a kind, and it's last so long. I am still using it today
That is reassuring to hear, Thank you.@@SkyPerspective
I've done a 7 months and a 2 years reviews in two separate videos. Search for them if you haven't watched them. Most likely by this July I'll be making my after 3 years review.😊
Will do thank you @@SkyPerspective
Just got mine yesterday and it’s awesome! What you said about the pen and having to remove the sticker first is so true haha took me awhileee to realize I need to do that, they should’ve mentioned that somewhere, like on a paper instructions attached to the pen itself. Thanks for the review!
Hi Paz G, yap, having that sticker without letting us know is really silly. Asus makes great laptop and sometimes clumsy things like that confused their own customers. I am about to launch another video on this Asus Zenbook after 7 months, and I found more quirks. Should be launching in a couple of days. Stay tuned. Glad you are enjoying the laptop.
You a reviewer that review very clear than other reviewer
For eg the microphone and instructions
Hi David, thank you so much for specifically telling me what you like about my video. Glad this video is useful for you.
Amazing work
Hi Aagam shah, thank you for your feedback.
@@SkyPerspective That mouse pad turns into Calculator too?
@@aagamshah8569 no, only the 15 inch version has that. Mine is a 14 inch Zenbook Duo. It does have a numeric keypad app and calculator app that we can tile on the right of the secondary screen, so right above the touch pad. That's how I normally use my numeric keypad.
@@SkyPerspective okay
Thanks lot for replying
Looking forward to get this Piece Real soon! 😊
Hi, this is one of the best review that I see on this particular laptop.thank you
Wow. This means a lot to me. Thanks. Makes all my effort making this video worth it.
I love how you show how to use the laptop, especially the keyboard, and touchpad. Great video !! 🥰
Oh... Thank You Christle!
freaking good and detailed demo, thanks for making such a great video
Just sharing my usage experience, didn't expect so many positive response. Thanks for your feedback letting me know.
11:53 I'm not sure if you already noticed but the battery the stylus pen uses is quad A (AAAA) battery, not triple. I think this might confuse some people.
Hi David, I was not aware I had overlooked this. Too late to change the video. I have updated the description for this correction. Thank you very much for letting me know.
You're a very optimistic person. Other RUclipsrs could have ranted and yelled "This is a fingerprint maaaagneet very poorly doooone" but you, just made a very positive comment. I love that.
It all depends on which perspective we want to take, which is what my channel name is based on. I like to see things from the bigger perspective. Thanks for your comment. Glad you like my video. Someone asked me to do an after 2 years video on this laptop. Watch this space.
@@SkyPerspective I will be following
After these schooled features,I'm sold!!!
Hey Ileana, don't rush out to buy one of these yet because the next generation is about to be released which means the price of this model might drop. Have a look around. Thanks for your comment by the way.
I watched a good dozen reviews of this product and yours was the most helpful one. Thank you!
Glad my video helped. Thanks for letting me know.
Nice video covers a lot of stuff, thank you. I'm coming from Sony Vaio - i5 from 2008, so boy am i in a brave new world...about time too. Don't think this will last as long though given two screens and fact technically more things can go wrong. I love the multi tasking capability and screen sizing options of active window. Hardly using the pen as touch screen is new and a revelation. I was down to get a OnePlus tablet £450 had paid deposit but no need as this Asus with its cheapest part THE STAND (which makes it more ergonomic - you never mentioned?) gives it a versatility to trump a tablet and improve general stability and multiplicity of use. Amazingly well thought out. It makes you want to be more productive for example I am voice typing now.... I know that has nothing to do with Asus BUT SUPER can't wait to do more.... Thank Again
Great! Thanks for sharing your thoughts. It's always nice to hear other people's opinion. I haven't install the foldable stand up after 1 year 10 months of using this laptop. 😄
Thank you for showing the less obvious specs of this laptop. Very useful!!!
Thank you for letting me know. I am very happy my video is useful to so many of you.
This is a detailed and practical explanation video. More useful no one has done before.
Hi ksn murthy, thanks for such encouraging feedback. It's feedback like yours that keeps me going, sharing my tech gear stories with all of you. Yes I try to pack all useful information in every scene of my video. That's the style of my channel.
Thank you no doubt I will be back once I purchase
@Sky Perspective ... Hi Sky, this is an amazing review I had ever seen.. This video is my 1st view on your channel. I am quite impressed and I love to watch. Thank you for such amazing video. Great effort 👌👌
Hi GOKUL RAJ S N, thank you so much for your valuable feedback. I started this channel just to share the personal tech gear I buy and use, I didn't expect my video is so useful to so many of you. This keeps me going. Thanks for you support and encouraging words. 👍
Really well done video focused on details I didn't find elsewhere
Thank you very much for your comment. I enjoy getting all these valuable feedback.
Really love your review of this. I think it brought me to buy it! Plus, your lovely presentation style was much appreciated. Thank you!
Hey Nate, really appreciate your feedback letting me know. Comments like yours keeps me going, making videos for all of you. I am working on a challenging video at the moment, trying something different. Hope all of you will like it. Enjoy your new Asus Zenbook.
Thank you, this is so useful. Your video is straight to the point and you cover a lot of important details that other videos don't. I have enjoyed all of your Asus Zenbook reviews. I decided to buy one. It looks like good fun.
I like your cover the stuff that others gloss over attitude used in your video making!
Hey Robert, Thanks a lot. It's very difficult to get valuable feedback like these. It helps me focus on what to show in my videos.
A very good review that helps me to decide on buying. Thank you very much.
Glad my video helped you. Thanks a lot for letting me know
its simply the best review
obviously he takes every as positive especially the fingerprint marks on the body
i love these positive minds
keep on creating videos like these
Wow! Thank you so much such positve feedback. This is very encouraging.
Thank you for the nice intro to this Zenbook duo. I just bought the UX 481. What is the significant difference between the 2 besides the bottom screen pad lifting up when the main lcd panel is being opened. Also do a tutorial on the Active stylus if you can. Good Job.
It's been a while. When I bought it there is a A$500 price difference, and I did a comparison. As far as I remember, they are very similar. Apart from the hinge lifting the second screen, I think the major difference would be the CPU. UX482 is a newer generation CPU I think. I still went for the more expensive UX482 because I think the hinge lift improves usability and air flow and I need the CPU speed. UX481 is still very capable, and if you can use a laptop stand like this ruclips.net/video/f148dxpzjC4/видео.html to prop it up to see second screen and improve air flow too.
Oh and I forgot to mention, I did a video on the Active Stylus too (ruclips.net/video/LC4fHSTsrYo/видео.html) as well as using this laptop to drive two FHD monitors (ruclips.net/video/3KN1zP3DHEI/видео.html).
Awesome job bro!!! Fantastic review thanks for mentioning the bottom of the Asus ZenBook it's beautiful crafted 👍👍👍
Cheers! Glad you liked the video. Yes love the sleek design of the laptop, even up until now I am still occasionally admiring it.
I just bought one... waiting for Asus to clear the sale I am so excited to get this laptop. I highly recommend going to the Asus website and buying it from there you can get it for 990$ for 32gb ram. The same laptop is selling 1500$< from best buy/Amazon
Hey James, thanks a lot for sharing this discount info with everyone. I am in Australia so won't know the deals in the US. Are you referring to the U.S. ?
Best realistic review out there. Thanks.
Thanks a lot Edward. A appreciate all feedback like yours.
Thanks a lot ! Good job appreciate it
Thanks for your feedback.
@@SkyPerspective hey man! I’ve bought some computer as you have ! And I have couple questions:
My battery life with turned on second display , and working in excel / chrome / word - 4/5 hours . What about your experience?
If I use stylus in excel, it doesn’t work as mouse, it draws! Do u know how to switch this function, or it is impossible? How do u use stylus ?
The best review for this laptop..!
It's so humbling to get such a huge compliment. What is it that you like best about this video? Which is the part you find most useful? Thanks so much.
So precise, so awesome, so detailed... Thank you good sir!
Hi Thomas, I appreciate feedback like yours so much. Thanks for taking the time to comment.
Nicely Explined everything.I needed this.
great work
So glad my video is helping all of you. Makes my effort all worth it. Thanks for letting me know. Is that anything else you like to see on this zenbook duo?
oh.... question for you. you think there is any chance to upgrade a model with iris xe to a better video card later??
I am not very sure, but I doubt so. Usually on laptops, only the storage and ram are upgradable, not the video card. This is because GPUs are usually soldered onto the board, I think.
I brought one it burnt out in a little over 3 months not good for heavy use !🥵 Great Review !
Oh wow, how did you manage to burn it? Did you overclock it? What software did you run? Thanks for sharing your experience.
@@SkyPerspective I was just using it and it turned off in the middle of work . 😢
@@rigjuice3842 Oh that's interesting. Thanks for sharing.
Guys, you really need to get the illuminated numeric pad into your 14" models, like you have in the 15" model, I currently own a 15" model and carrying this heavy monster about is hard work. I really want the UX8402ZA, but holding myself back in the fear you might launch a 14" model with the illuminated numeric pad, as that's a very important feature I use.
amazing review
Hi AK, thanks for dropping this comment. Appreciate it.
This seems like it would be a good laptop for students. You can have the lecture on the bottom screen while you take notes on the big screen.
Yes that's very true,and it comes with stylus which they can use to annotate and scribble notes on their lecture notes on second screen.
Very helpful. Thanks.
You are very welcome. Thanks for letting me know.
Nice and specific review of zenbook duo thx
Thank you so much for your feedback. Appreciate it. Don't forget to check out my other videos on this Zenbook Duo.
Браво! Всё по делу! Круто! Наконец то нашёлся из всего мира, который грамотно рассказал про эту восхитительную крутую вещь! Из всего ютуба про этот ноутбук у вас единственные толковые обзоры! Очень жаль, что не на русском языке, я ничего не понимаю на английском языке. Остальным лучше поучиться у вас, как правильно и грамотно делать видеообзор про этот ноутбук.МОЛОДЕЦ!
Thanks for your feedback. I am very happy to hear this. Glad the video is useful to you.
Subscribed. Thank you very informative, especially with the keys and functions. Wonder if we should really buy this,at this price range.
Have a think about how you will be using your laptop and if there are any other laptops at this or cheaper price range that fits your use cases. For me, I use it quite extensively, for work, for office conference meetings, for my RUclips video editing, and more, so it's worth the price for me, especially when I bought it at 20% discount. It's all about value for money. How will you be using it? Hope this helps.
Hi kindly tell me can I edit 4k videos easily with its i7 , mx450 version
Hi SHOEAB AHMAD , yes it can do 4K editing, but will be a bit slow (1 to 2 sec lag) depending on the video editing software you use. I record all of my video clips in 4K and edit them on HitFilm Express, export as FHD to upload to RUclips, and I do this editing with my Dell QHD monitor ( ruclips.net/video/M97wwlmamtA/видео.html ). This Asus Zenbook Duo copes quite well running the QHD monitor and editing the 4K clips. During editing time, when scrubbing through videos, you might need to wait 1 or 2 second for it to catch up. It will catch up eventually. So sometimes I use Windows Video Player to find and scrub through those clips before loading them into HitFilm to edit. No lag when scrubbing on Windows Video Player. Hope this helps. Let me know if you have anymore questions.
Thanks for the detailed video. I bought the laptop in Germany today and found that there is no stylus pen inside the box. It seems that the list of accessories differs in different countries. Did anyone face the same issue of missing stylus pen?
Yes, in Western Australia. But I just contacted the supplier and they sourced one for me at no cost.
thanks for your review. very informative. one question, does your version have a NumberPad? if not, which version of the (UX 482) series has the NumberPad?
Hi Sadra, with UX482, there is no physical number pad, but you can pop up the number pad on the second screen, see the demo on 8:02 . The 15 inch model UX582 has the number pad on the touchpad see this: www.asus.com/au/Laptops/For-Creators/Zenbook/Zenbook-Pro-Duo-15-OLED-UX582/ Hope this helps.
Muy buen review, yo llevo usándolo solo 2 días y ya lo amo!, soy diseñadora y la segunda pantalla funciona increíble y aun que es pequeño es muy cómodo trabajar en el
Hi Macerena, Muchas gracias por compartir tu experiencia con todos.
Thank you very much for sharing your experience with everyone.
@@SkyPerspective thanks you for the review :)
que tal es el peso
?
@@alexisaguirre64 Pretty heavy for a 14" laptop. Well, we get more than 14" screen display because we have the second screen. It's about 1.6 kg.
Thanks for this great demo. It answered a lot of my questions. I have a question about the touchpad on the side. Can it be turned into a number pad? I've seen photos of this feature on the larger 15 inch versions.
Hi Sina, I am glad my video is answering lots of questions. No not on this 14 inch version. Yes the 15 inch version touchpad can be turned into a numeric pad. On my 14 inch version, I use the screenpad+ software to launch a number key pad on the second screen, which is effectively the same thing.
Amazing video...thank you so much for this...where do we place the stylus when it's not in use? Is there a way we can attach it to the laptop?...also do u think it is an overall durable laptop coz of d dual screen?
That's the problem with the stylus. It does not attach to the laptop anywhere. I keep it in my pen holder slot in my laptop backpack.
The hinge mechanism is very sturdy and reliable. So far I have been using the laptop for a bit more than 6 months now, and the hinge is still as good as new. Since I made this video ( ruclips.net/video/3zAa07O5MRw/видео.html ) I opened and closed the laptop to it's maximum hinge angle almost everyday for this new desk set up. No problems at all.
@@SkyPerspective oh ok...thank you so much for replying so quickly
@@rahuldravid8723 You are welcome. I just realise the RUclips link I provided in above comment is incorrect. I've just updated it.
@@SkyPerspective thank you so much for doing it. Take care
It’s nice. But please explain how to use the 2 screen and get best use of it. I use for Lightroom editing also. But I don’t know how to use it. Thanks
I've learnt so much from your videos, thank you. I've just started experimenting with the stylus and for reference the battery in it is AAAA ( i think your video says triple A). Do you think the screen pad plus control center will ever get upgraded, id like to be able to disable the keyboard quickly!
Very happy to get comments like yours. This is why I started this Sky Perspective channel to share information. Glad you are finding my video useful.
Yes it's AAAA, I made a mistake, and corrected is my writing a statement in the description, can't change the video. Thanks for letting me know.
The screen pad plus comes with a software call ScreenXpert and throughout my 18 months of using this laptop, they have updated the software at least twice, which is great. We can customise the shortcuts, and there is a disable keyboard shortcut button. I demonstrated disable keyboard on the stylus video: ruclips.net/video/LC4fHSTsrYo/видео.html
Great video! Thank you!
You are welcome. Thanks
Very Good Review!👍🏼
Thanks!
Can you let us know what are the future upgrade option?
In terms of software, it's upgradable to Windows 11. In fact, I have received the notification to upgrade to Windows 11, but I haven't done it.
In terms of hardware, we cannot upgrade the RAM, only the SSD can be upgraded.
This is the best review of zenbook14 due👏👏its amazing.
is it good for engineering works?such as using MATLAB,ADS,altium designer,python and cadance ?
i hope you ansewr to my question🥰
Wow, thanks for the wonderful positive feedback. To be honest, I haven't used any of the apps you have mentioned except Python, and I am not sure what you mean by engineering works. CAD drawing? If you are asking about doing software development coding, then yes I would recommend getting this laptop because of it's second screen and high resolution. We can maximize one app window (e.g. IDE) to display across both the top and bottom screens as one big screen. What this means is we have more screen real estate to do our coding. If budget allows, I would even recommend going for the 15" Asus Zenbook Pro Duo (UX582) www.asus.com/au/Laptops/For-Creators/ZenBook/ZenBook-Pro-Duo-15-OLED-UX582/
Excellent review ! You win a new subscriber !
PS : It's MX450, not MX250 ;)
Thanks for your support. Oops, did I say MX250? Thanks for pointing that out.
Nicely made!
Thanks
Thanks for the review
You are welcome.
i have this one, such a good laptop...just my specs are 19 11900H and RTX 3080
I received mime a few days ago.... and still can't figure out how to attach the ergolift item. Any video on that ?
Haha.... I couldn't figure that out myself. Maybe someone else seeing this can share their thoughts.
Thanks! Great video. I'm considering the upgrade from my 15 inch Acer...how's the audio and speakers? One video said they were not really that good even with the Harman/Kardon label. Also, is the main screen good or average?
Thanks. Comparing to other laptops, the speakers from this Zenbook duo is very good and capable. Even when I pumped up the volume it's very loud and spacious, with clear mids and highs without distortion, but like with all laptops speakers the bass is lacking. To be honest, I don't hear anything spectacular with Harman Kardon. The speakers are also very capable and sufficient when it comes to video conferencing and podcast. I can easily use the onboard microphone and the speakers to video conference.
The main screen is great, its the reason why I bought this laptop to do my video editing. The colour reproduction quality is good and above average. However, because it's a matt screen, it's not as beautiful as glossy screens. Touch screen works very well with both finger touch and pen inputs. Hope these answers your questions. Let me know if you have any more questions.
Just picked one of these up! Thanks for the review- it’s excellent!
One question- on the bottoms screen in the left hand corner is an i7 sticker- have you removed yours? Mine seems adhered quite strongly…
Hi TwistedSouL, No I haven't, it's not interfering with anything so I left it there. Why do you want to remove it?
Glad you like my review. Thanks for the feedback.
Great review, liked and subbed
Thanks for your support!
Sir what about the tip of pen , what if tip wears off. Where can we buy extra tips of stylus? And is stylus heavy? Can we use for writing for 4-5 hrs or will it give hand ache? Please make a detail review of stylus as well. Thank you.
all the details you show of using each feature is incredibly useful in deciding whether each feature is good enough or not vs all the other reviews on here.
sucks you can't use the primary screen in 90 degree angle when the little screen is tilted correct?
Thanks for the feedback. It tells me I am on the right track building my channel based on tech gear I use for myself.
What do you mean by cannot use the primary screen at 90 degrees angle? The primary screen and its touch screen all work even when the second screen is tilted up. The primary screen does not open more than 135 degrees though approximately.
I have disassembled this machine and replaced the screen. It uses 72 color gamut fHD
That's so cool. Don't think I dare to take it apart just yet. Great job.
Thank you so much for this video, I made up my mind I want this laptop, where is the best place to buy it? Best Buy is sold out.
Hi Leslie, I am in Australia so not very familiar with where to buy computer goods in the U.S. If you don't need to see the actual laptop before you buy it, maybe you can try buying online? Perhaps Amazon? Hopefully someone in the U.S. seeing this comment can give some good suggestions.
Very nice video. This is the last video I watched before getting convinced to buy it. I have one question though. How is the battery performance ?
Thanks for the great content! What is your average battery life like?
Good. I never have to worry about battery. If I use it for the whole day, I would be doing a bit of video editing, surfing the net shopping, replying to my youtube comments like what I am doing now, and doing office work multi tasking with both screens. At the end of the day, the battery still has about 30% left. Battery life is very subjective, your usage may vary with mine. Hope this helps.
I have owned this computer. Goofed and got the 1200 version thinking I can ad ram and play games worth playing.
Other than that, great laptop. Everything is awesome. Productivity for research is just outstanding. The multitasking, battery performance is top notch. Turn off the screen pad and watch a movie. Turn it on back to study session. Battery 🔋 is better than people have said. Power RUclipsr and editors need more I guess.
Hey my guy, you did well. But it's a AAAA battery. Three me off as well.
Not a AAA for the pen
Hi, may i know how did you add the ram? i was told by the Asus staff that we can't upgrade the ux482 RAM as the memory slot is attached to the motherboard??
@@airfong He said he thought he could add RAM
Nice video bro, i just bought the laptop and checking video in RUclips regarding it is feature
Thanks
Thanks. Thats great,so far this zenbook duo is working very well for me. I am sure you will like it. Let me know if you have any questions.
@@SkyPerspective yeah actually i fall in love with it before buying it even it cost me a lot of money .. thanks bro sure :)
nice video! I've just ordered the slightly lower spec'ed version i7 512sd 16gig intel iris xe. I hope i like it!
Hope you enjoy it!
Kudos for you video. Thanks
You are welcome. Thanks.
Is there a place on the laptop to store the ASUS pen? I see it's magnetized but I can't find a location where it might be stored.
how to enlarge the text on the second screen? The text is too small.
You can try going to your Windows System settings, look for display, select the second display and change the custom scale to 200% or more. Alternatively, you can adjust the Text size in Windows System settings too. Hopefully this helps.
Hi
May I know if ur model is suitable for graphic design by using Adobe Illustrator & Photoshop?
What is the maximum and minimum battery life on the device on different power modes and screen brightnesses?
Can you use the stylus on both screens. Do either or both have palm rejection?
Hi Charlotte, yes the stylus works on both screens. With the palm rejection, it's not great I must say. Watch this video where I focus on the stylus: ruclips.net/video/LC4fHSTsrYo/видео.html
Gotta question for you sir.
How easy is it to write notes via the stylus? And can you use Microsoft one note for that?
It looks really nice.
Yes it's easy, but for the second screen, the height is very limited and the palm rejection is not great. I made a video about it. ruclips.net/video/LC4fHSTsrYo/видео.html
Yes we should be able to write on MS notes, even though I haven't tried it though.
The newest version is even more powerful! Better screen, faster processor,etc
Hi TheEtbetween, that's very good to know. That's what I would expect. Any issue so far? Thanks for sharing.
it will be better if you discuss battery also
I know, but battery is very subjective to the software we run and different usage patterns. I will try to give some rough battery usage next time. Thanks for your feedback and suggestion
This is an informative video, I am looking to buy a base model with 8gb RAM , my wrk is only office, no graphics editing, gaming etc. Do you think the base version is good to carry these activities for some time in the future
Yes I think the base model is quite capable with the latest Intel integrated Iris Xe graphics. Should be enough for you to do normal office activities, even video conferencing.
I didn't realize how many aiding and supporting feature asus is putting out with this. Part of the price premium is definitely associated with this thought out software integration/development cost. I am more willing to pay now that I see it's not just another simple screen.
Hi! I saw your videos on RUclips and I'd appreciate it if you could spare some time, if possible. I just bought the ASUS Zenbook Duo 14 UX482EA. The website stated a battery life of up to 17 hours, but when I hover over the battery icon, it shows that at 68%, it will last another hour and a half. How is this possible? I read somewhere that it might be a battery setting. I changed the battery mode to performance and now it lasts 4 hours, but not at least 10. Are there any nuances that add extra hours? Can you suggest where I can find more information on this? Is seventeen hours actually possible on the device? I changed the battery usage mode to 'maximum lifespan mode,' turned off the additional screen, and made mode changes as I mentioned; it was already 4 hours. After a few seconds, 4 turned into 17 battery charge, now again 3 something. What the hell? Can you give some advice?
i recently bought this notebook for work and i already have some issues with it! The secondary screen behaves as a touchpad for the mainscreen . i cannot select anything on the secondary screen without the help of a mouse or the touchpad/numberpad. I made a factory reset 2 days ago and it behaves exactly the same! i made some research regarding this issue but i didn't find anything and anyone talking about something like that. Now i think i have to send it back in service even if i only had it for 15 days. Maybe i made by mistake a hidden command, without knowing it, but i really don't find how to fix it!
Hi Cerasela, when you say you cannot select anything on the second screen do you mean the second screen does not allow you to use it as a touch screen? If yes, it sounds like a defect and you should send it back to Asus for service or warranty claim.
How is the laptop working now? Do you still use it?
@@texsion yes, i still use it. I figured out how the fix it. On the help page of the oficial site asus i've found an app. named screendpad optimizer. I fixed the isue with that optimizer and since then, works very fine!
@@texsion Yes all the time everyday. I am using it to type you this reply. In fact, I have just recently bought the extended warranty on this laptop as I intend to keep it for another year or two. It hasn't failed me yet, been using it everyday with my two QHD monitor to edit my RUclips videos.
@@SkyPerspective have you made a year update? With Windows 11
Great review! Thank you! I do have a question, is this laptop heavy? is it hard to transport? I saw its around 2.5 kg, is that right? I am thinking of buying this beauty! haha but I am very worried about its weight, as I will be traveling a lot next year. Thanks again!
Hi Kupof, I travel with it a lot, basically bring it with me all the time to do my work and video editing at coffee shops. Mine is the 14" model at 1.6kg, not 2.5kg. It compact enough to easily slip into the laptop pocket of my medium size backpack, and its not too heavy for me. I have carried it with my water bottle in my backpack and gone shopping for hours. A good body contoured backpack makes it so more comfortable to carry. I recommend Crumpler backpacks. Having said that, "heavy" and "light" can be subjective depending on how much we usually carry on us when we travel. Hope this helps.
Thank you for the good video review. Here are some questions I would like to ask:
1. When using Zoom for teaching or presenting, how much of my students can I still see? (Can i move the powerpoint to the Screenpad+ and still see all the students?)
2. If I plug it into an external monitor and present, how does it work? Like when pressing Windows Key + P. Is there a tertiary screen option?
Thank you
Hi Arkar,
1) If you use the multi-windows view in Zoom, then yes, you can have your powerpoint on Screenpad+ and have the Zoom participants window on the main screen. However, the powerpoint will be very very small because the Screenpad+ does not have much height. It might be better the other way around.
2) It works the same as any other external screen. Have you seen this video where I connect this laptop to two external monitors ? ruclips.net/video/3KN1zP3DHEI/видео.html
@@SkyPerspective Thank you so much!
It would be great if you can also do a video update of the laptop usage. It's been 5 months? I'd like to know how's it been. I do not see others doing it yet. Thank you
You are very welcome Arkar. And thanks for suggesting such a great video idea. Yes I can make an after 5 months video on this Zenbook Duo. Can't believe it's 5 months already. I was about to make a video on this laptop driving my new Dell QHD USB C monitor. Maybe I will make the after 5 months video after next couple of videos. Already added to my list of videos to make. In the mean time, just to let you know, this Zenbook Duo is still going strong and I still love every part of it especially the second screen.
@@arkarbrown5308 Hi Arkar , I am not sure if you have watched it already. I finally got to this video in my list of videos to make, and instead of an "after 5 months" videos, its an "After 7 months" video because I am 2 months late. 😊Any way, here it is, better late than never. ruclips.net/video/UaSXvM2qrrE/видео.html I have to thank you for giving me this idea. A lot of viewers likes this video apparently. Please feedback and comment on that video to let me know what you think. Thanks.
Firstly I want to say thanks for such a great review. It’s really detailed. But I just wondered I’m a computer engineering student it’s mean I will type a lot 😂 what you think is it possible to type easily with this laptop also can we use it on our leg. Or could you suggest me another laptop.
Hi ege akdoğan , you are very welcome and I am glad this video is useful. I studied computer software engineering decades ago too. This laptop is geared towards video editing, but it should be able to handle programming tasks easily. For this Zenbook Duo laptop, typing on your lap as you sit on public transport is NOT good because the keyboard is too close to our body. Have a look at my "after 7 months" video: ruclips.net/video/UaSXvM2qrrE/видео.html
Apart from this, this laptop should be good for your study and programming tasks. You should be able to run emulators and IDE quite easily, and the dual screen is great for multitasking. There is a newer version of this Zenbook Duo: www.asus.com/laptops/for-creators/zenbook/zenbook-pro-14-duo-oled-ux8402/ which I don't think you'll need unless you also do Video content creation.
The other laptop I would suggest is the DELL XPS 13.
@@SkyPerspective omg thanks for your words. You’re amazing and watched your other videos. Also yes you’re right maybe I need to find another laptop, I will search it. Don’t get me wrong your videos are detailed and great. Video quality is great, voice great and I think you’re better than other review channels and if you use more attractive cover photos and I’m pretty sure your channel will have more subscribers. And you’re my new favorite review channel. Thank you 🙏 have a nice day.
Thanks for your kind words, and I really appreciate your feedback. I don't get such great feedback often. Thanks for supporting my work.
can the 2nd small screen use for gaming as well? or maybe like running simulator eg bluestacks
Not sure about simulators but it can definitely run games like Minecraft. I have tried launching Minecraft on the second screen. Works well, just a bit narrow. The second screen is a full fledge proper second screen so I think you should be able to do anything that an external monitor can do, just bare in mind the height is quite limited.
@@SkyPerspective thanks for the reply... consider buying it for work and casual gaming,with running some simulator for afk farming games
@@Eugene_Pow Thanks Pow, consider using my affiliate link in the description if the price is right for you so you can support my work. If you can get better deal some where else, that's ok too, no pressure. Thanks.
For this model, is it good enough to edit 4K videos in Adobe Premier Pro and also light gaming?
Do you have video comparing between this model and the Zenbook flip S13 OLED UX371?
I use HitFilm Express for my video editing. All my footage are shot in 4K and they are edited to 1080p 30fps video to be uploaded to RUclips. I can confirm this laptop is more than capable of doing this. Apologies on my channel I only showcase the tech I bought for myself, and I don't have Zenbook flip S13 OLED UX371 to compare. By the way, I think Zenbook flip S13 OLED UX371 only has Intel Iris Xe graphics which most likely will perform slower than the model I have. The UX482 model I have comes with Nvidia GeForce MX450 dedicated graphics. I have not used Adobe Premier Pro before, but I heard Adobe Premier is a lot more resource-intensive, and takes a long time to render.
It can easily handle games such as running Minecraft with complex world rendering.
Hey, I'm deciding exactly on these 2 laptops! Which one did you go for and why? lol
any word on battery backup of using both screen while doing casual internet browsing ?
Very nice review of the little details which make all the difference. How does it perform when connected to one or even two external monitors, like the ones you have on your setup? This is something that no video has yet shown but would be critical to know as many of us are working from home and connecting our laptops to larger monitor(s). Greetings from the UK here too.
Hi WH Lee, nice to know see so many of my UK viewers here. So far, I have only connected to one external (Dell) monitor and used it everyday for Video conference while I work from home. It's more than capable of driving it because of its Nvidia MX250 dedicated graphics. I am still waiting for my HDMI to USB C cable before I can connect up the second external monitor.
@@SkyPerspective thanks a lot - super helpful info. keep on going with the great reviews!
Very happy to help. Thanks for the encouragement. Let me know if you still have any questions on this zenbook duo.
Hi WH Lee, I finally got to make this video. This video shows how good this laptop runs two external monitors: ruclips.net/video/3KN1zP3DHEI/видео.html Enjoy
@@SkyPerspective great new video! Not only you showed it is possible, but pushed to run it with *2* external monitors in addition to the laptops *2* on-board monitors!
Is this laptop good for gaming with an egpu?
To be honest, I haven't tried that before. It does have 2 thunderbolt ports and I remember reading one of my viewer saying the thunder ports can be used for egpu, but I haven't tried that before and can't confirm that.
The key board gets locked. How do I unlock the key board. Which button or buttons have I got to press. Please answer. Thanks
The keyboard lock toggle button is in the screenXpert app on the second screen display.
Hey sir, thank you so much for this review I really like it...
Can I ask you is this laptop good for programming??
Hi Aymane, yes this Zenbook Duo is very capable and definitely can run programming software and IDE and maybe simulators. However, the screen and screen resolution might not big and high enough. It's only 14 inch and FHD on the main screen. You maybe able to stretch the IDE and tile various pane on the second screen if the IDE studio can accommodate.
If you intend to plug it into an external (QHD) monitor, then you won't have any issue. I am running it with my Dell QHD monitor ( ruclips.net/video/M97wwlmamtA/видео.html ), and it works very well so far.
Alternatively, if you don't mind the bulk and the weight, you can consider going to Asus Zenbook Duo 15" UX582 which has a 4K display. Hope this helps.
Hello, when the second screen turns off, how do I turn it on ?
Hi Henry, the second screen is like any other second monitor on Windows. So you can go to Windows Display Setting, look for the second screen and enable it from there. Hope this helps.
