Asus ZenBook Pro Duo UX8406CA-PZ005W is a groundbreaking dual-screen laptop designed for ultimate productivity, creativity, and on-the-go versatility. Released in early 2025, this model redefines the traditional laptop experience by offering a vast, adaptable workspace.
At its core, the Asus ZenBook Pro Duo UX8406CA-PZ005W is powered by the cutting-edge Intel Core Ultra 9 285H processor. This AI-powered CPU features 16 cores (with a max boost of up to 5.4 GHz) and includes an integrated Intel AI Boost NPU, which significantly accelerates on-device AI tasks, making it incredibly responsive for demanding applications, multitasking, and leveraging AI-enhanced features within Windows 11. Graphics are handled by the integrated Intel Arc Graphics, providing solid performance for creative applications, light gaming, and smooth visual experiences across both displays.
The standout feature of this Asus ZenBook Pro Duo UX8406CA-PZ005W is its dual 14-inch ASUS Lumina OLED touch displays. Both screens boast a sharp 3K (2880 x 1800) resolution with a vibrant 120Hz refresh rate. These OLED panels deliver stunning visuals with true blacks, exceptional contrast (1,000,000:1), 500 nits HDR peak brightness, and 100% DCI-P3 color gamut, making them ideal for professional creative work and immersive media consumption. The dual-screen setup effectively provides a 19.8-inch virtual workspace, offering unparalleled flexibility for managing multiple applications, reference materials, or extended timelines in creative software.
The laptop comes equipped with a substantial 32GB of LPDDR5X unified memory, ensuring fluid performance even with numerous applications running simultaneously. For storage, it features a spacious and incredibly fast 2TB PCIe Gen4 NVMe M.2 SSD, providing ample room for large files and ensuring lightning-fast boot-ups and application loading times.
Designed for adaptability, the Asus ZenBook Pro Duo UX8406CA-PZ005W offers multiple usage modes. You can use it as a traditional laptop with the detachable full-size ErgoSense Bluetooth keyboard magnetically placed on the lower screen, transforming it into a single 14-inch display. Alternatively, detach the keyboard and utilize the built-in kickstand to stand the laptop in “Dual Screen Laptop Mode” or “Desktop Mode,” allowing for an expansive dual-monitor setup on the go. “Sharing Mode” allows you to lay the laptop flat for easy collaboration. The included ASUS Pen 2.0 provides 4096 pressure levels for precise writing and drawing on either touchscreen.
Connectivity is comprehensive, including two Thunderbolt™ 4 ports (with support for display/power delivery and 40Gbps data transfer), one USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A port, an HDMI 2.1 TMDS port, and a 3.5mm combo audio jack. It also features Wi-Fi 7 (802.11be) and Bluetooth 5.4 for cutting-edge wireless connectivity. The laptop is remarkably portable, weighing approximately 1.65 kg (3.64 lbs) including the detachable keyboard, and boasts a durable, MIL-STD 810H military-grade standard build.
