Everyone should have noticed that the recent 14-inch laptops can be said to be more and more "powerful", and even seeing high-end CPUs in 14-inches has gradually become accustomed to it. Today, this laptop Zenbook Pro 14 Duo OLED ( Zenbook Pro 14 Duo OLED ( UX8402) That's right, except the name is very long. When you see his specs, you will definitely want to say something ! How many cool things can a 14-inch laptop fit in? Bonnie won’t talk nonsense. Let’s take a look. This time Bonny unboxed the Zenbook Pro 14 Duo OLED (UX8402), which ASUS recently debuted. The name is really a bit long. Let’s take a little dismantling to get to know it . First , the Zenbook Pro series, and then the 14.5-inch screen . You should often see Zenbook 13, 14, and 15 in laptops. Most of these numbers correspond to the size of the screen, not the generations. It means that Duo is right . It is the same as the Zephyrus Duo 16 that Bonnie unpacked not long ago. This time it is also a dual-screen laptop. The last OLED is also the highlight of this time. In addition to the OLED screen, this is a 2.8K 120Hz OLED. Yes, the high refresh rate OLED has also officially landed on the laptop . From daily use, whether it is browsing, dragging or matching Windows 11's more complete animation, the overall smoothness is very impressive. The point is to benefit from the characteristics of OLED itself . There will not be the relatively visible smear problem of LCD in the past. Bonnie , etc. will explain in detail. First, let’s see the appearance. This time , the familiar concentric circle and hairline design is adopted on the A side. However, this generation has two biggest The first difference is that the A-side treatment this time is very, very delicate , and it is very healing to the touch. Compared with the previous models , the surface treatment this time is not easy to get fingerprints, and it will produce different light and shadow centered on the ASUS Logo. The second change is that ASUS officially put on more models this year and replaced the new Logo released on the 30th anniversary. The overall look is more modern and simple. When it was launched, Bonnie knocked on the bowl and hoped that the new Logo could be placed in more On the product, Bonnie himself quite likes it. What do you think? Leave a message below and tell Bonnie. Finally , the edge is matched with a smooth shiny diamond cut edge . The style of the entire A-side maintains the low-key and steady Zenbook Pro series. The new Logo is more Simple and neat . There is only one 3.5mm audio jack on the left side of the I/O jack, and two Thunderbolt 4 USB C supports video output on the right side. It can be connected to an external monitor . According to Bonnie ’s actual measurement, both jacks support 100W PD charging. When you go out , you can choose a smaller charger. Finally , there is a USB A (USB 3.2 Gen 2), and although this is a 14-inch laptop, ASUS also tried to put more sockets on the back side, including The power supply, a MicroSD card slot and an HDMI 2.1 is a little pity that the card slot is MicroSD . If it is a normal size, it will still be more practical for creators. In terms of weight, Bonnie actually measured Zenbook The Pro 14 Duo OLED (UX8402) weighs about 1.7kg for a single unit, plus the original 180W charger, it weighs about 2.3kg. It's a little surprising that the 14-inch is controlled at 1.7kg. Don't forget that there are dual monitors . The weight control is very good, but be careful. The Zenbook Pro 14 Duo OLED (UX8402) cannot be opened and closed with one hand. It may also be related to the new lifting structure, but open it slowly or open it a little and then let it open slowly. In fact, the angle can be adjusted with one hand. What’s special is that ASUS also included this accessory in the package this time. It can be directly attached to the bottom of the fuselage. When not in use, it can be folded flat and folded when it is used . In this way, the laptop can be lifted. If you are accustomed to using the laptop stand, typing will also be easier. After opening , we see that the B side has a video camera on the top and supports the Windows Hello face recognition module . It can also perform face unlocking in low-light environments. Then we see the Zenbook A major point of the Pro 14 Duo OLED (UX8402) Yes , since this time I saw OLED on the product name, the point is the screen. This time ASUS is equipped with a 14.5-inch 2.8K 16:10 OLED screen. The point Bonnie said earlier This is the world's first 14.5-inch 2.8K 120Hz screen. The high refresh rate has also officially landed in the OLED notebook camp. OLED is no longer only 60Hz. Audiences familiar with Bonny should remember that we mentioned high refresh rate last year . The rate of OLED should be on the laptop this year, which can be regarded as a wish . This OLED also has the certification of VESA Displays HDR True Black 500 and PANTONE, and supports Dolby Vision, Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos . In NETFLIX, dual Dolby can also successfully light up. At the same time, this screen also supports touch and stylus. It can be used with ASUS Pen 2.0 to achieve 4096-level pressure sensitivity . The improvement is very impressive. Let's look at it one by one. First of all, this OLED also adopts the current mainstream 16:10 screen ratio , so that the four sides are narrow , the overall screen ratio is higher, and the integration with the second screen below is better. No A wide chin is comfortable. At the same time, 16:10 is more practical for multi-tasking creation. The area that can be displayed on the web page for browsing files will be larger . When editing and creating, there is one more row on the work column. Compared with 16:9, it will be more comfortable to use. Many color rendering parts have been measured by Bonnie . This OLED has reached 100% sRGB, 96% Adobe RGB and 100% DCI-P3 average Delta E, which has reached a very accurate 1.04. The overall display effect is very good at this level. The improvement of using OLED is still visible to the naked eye. In addition to being very suitable for video creation, it is usually used for leisure and chasing dramas. It is currently the top screen on the laptop. In the brightness part of the screen, Bonnie measured the maximum brightness of HDR can reach about 530 nits this year . The brightness of the OLED laptop has also reached the 500 nit mark, which has been improved. What is more special is that this time the Zenbook Pro 14 Duo OLED supports automatic adjustment of screen brightness and automatic color adjustment . You can turn it on in the settings, and the system will automatically adjust the brightness according to the environment. And the color temperature of the screen. For example , when the light is warmer , the color temperature of the screen will also be warmer. If the light is cold, the system will automatically adjust it, making it more comfortable for daily use. However, if it is a creative need, it will be recommended to consider whether to turn it on . The biggest difference of LCD is the performance in high-contrast scenes. After all, OLED can control the switch of each pixel, so it is like watching a complex scene on the screen or the next scene of high-contrast and low light source. In addition to the OLED in the dark The performance will be purer, and there will be no grayish or bluish backlight overflow in the past LCD. In addition , the non-luminous feature , combined with more and more applications and the dark mode supported by the website, can also achieve a certain degree of power saving. By the way This screen has also passed the German Rhein eye protection certification. In fact , the reason why OLED can reduce harmful blue light as mentioned by Bonnie is mainly due to the hardware characteristics of the OLED screen, so the OLED refers to the eye protection mode, not the kind of eye protection mode that will be adjusted after turning on. The OLED itself emits less harmful blue light and will not affect the display of the screen. However , since it is an OLED, it is still PWM dimming. If you are more sensitive to PWM, it is recommended to experience it on site. It is worth mentioning. Yes, ASUS has added an OLED low-brightness anti-flicker option to MyASUS this time. The recommended way to use it is to keep the system brightness above 60% to slow down the PWM flicker. Adjust the brightness for anti-flickering and the system will automatically adjust the best anti-flickering settings. In addition to the problem of OLED burn-in, you can also find OLED Care to enable pixel rearrangement and pixel shift in MyASUS . The toolbar function , Bonnie will suggest to consider turning it on , because this is a dual screen , you will need to grab the edge to see the ASUS presets It is also closed, or you can change the main display to the second screen , the toolbar will be on the lower LCD screen , but it will become the original open window, and it will also be displayed on the second screen. You have to pull it up again. Is it suitable for your practical situation, but in fact, there are already pixel shift and pixel rearrangement. The two goalkeepers have been able to largely avoid being displayed in the same position for a long time. In addition , another feature of OLED screens is that the response speed will come faster. Minimum It can reach 0.2ms , especially when the update rate of this generation reaches 120Hz, the user experience is really greatly improved, and there is almost no smear phenomenon. Bonnie also expects that OLED with high update rate will also have the opportunity to appear in the Gaming series of laptops. Then we see that the biggest focus of the C side is of course the second screen that ASUS calls ScreenPad Plus. The most special place is that ASUS has adopted a new lift design, officially called AAS Ultra . In short, the biggest changes are two. The first AAS Ultra There are two stages of angle adjustment. The first stage allows the second screen to be raised to a more suitable viewing angle. The second stage is to adjust the angle of the main screen itself. You can see from the screen. This time, the main screen is adjusted after 90 degrees. It hardly affects the lifting of the second screen, so the flexibility in the use angle will also be greater. Don't be afraid that when the main screen is adjusted, the secondary screen will also be lowered. The design of the second AAS Ultra also makes the back of the screen become Leave the whole space. Compared with the previous generation models that used ErgoLift, there will be a screen behind the air intake hole. With the addition of AAS Ultra, the entire rear side can now be air intake. Coupled with the ASUS IceCool Plus cooling technology, it can be It is more effective to help this compact 14-inch machine to further dissipate heat . With the combination of the two, the overall heat dissipation will be better. The actual performance will be tested later . However, you should pay attention to the use because the rear side is suspended, so it is on the cover. At this time, you should pay attention to whether there is something accidentally running in . If you encounter resistance, don't press down vigorously. Then about the second screen , I will directly show you the experience. What Bonnie wants to say first is that the software ASUS has launched a second screen for the second screen. The control interface , that is, the latest version of ScreenXpert has come to ScreenXpert 3. When you open ScreenPad Plus, you should be able to see this control menu directly on the left side. It should help you get started with dual monitors more easily. Bonnie will show you here. Let's take a look at a few useful functions . The first one is to quickly switch the window position . The way to use it is also very intuitive. When you drag the window, two options 1 and 2 will appear directly in the upper right corner, and the corresponding numbers will also appear on the screen . For example Release at 2 and the window will open on the secondary screen In 1, if you release it, it will open on the main screen, so you don't have to drag the same window and then drag it all the way from the top to the bottom. When dragging , you just need to select the window. We will also point to a more advanced one. When it reaches 1, go down a little, and the system will show the way of arrangement. It can be divided into four grids, left and right, or up and down. The same is true for the second screen. You can divide it into three areas, or one of the left and right sides is larger . For the second one, you can In the set control center, you can open the drag to change the position , you can drag the position freely, or even become a floating button to automatically hide, etc. There is also a physical button to quickly switch the upper and lower screens, which is very easy to use . Switch to the top, cut it to see a message, and then you can switch back to continue working when you are finished. Third , you can enable a three-finger tap to enter the touchpad function. Although both the upper and lower screens support touch , you can also use the second The screen turns into a super large touchpad, which is suitable for pure browsing. Just tap the screen with three fingers to turn it on. You can also set it to automatically log out. After a few seconds of standing, it will automatically log out. Finally, you can also switch the camera microphone directly through the control center. There are also shortcut keys on the keyboard . This is very easy to use . Especially recently, there should be a lot of video conferences. It is a bonus to have independent control keys. In addition, ScreenXpert has previous functions , including shortcut keys, difficult handwriting, and virtual number keys. But overall, Bonnie In ROG Zephyrus Duo 16, I said that the second screen is more practical for multi-tasking or for those who have development needs. For example , to create, you must open a lot of windows, and the editing software will also have a bunch of modules. You may also It is very troublesome to switch every time you need to open the script and open the Line under the stack of various windows. The biggest point of the second screen is to provide more screen space. Bonnie will suggest that you can spend some time arranging the settings you are used to, such as setting the Premiere Pro. Window settings, such as the material library in this corner, here is the preview window, here is the timeline , then put the script here, and then you can start to show off your skills comfortably. Also on Zenbook Pro 14 Duo OLED (UX8402) if you are using Adobe camp, you can use the ProArt Creator Hub application to turn the second screen into a shortcut panel according to different software . Last time, this screen on Zenbook Pro 14 Duo OLED (UX8402) performed well. It uses a corresponding main screen 2.8 The K (2880x864) long screen has the same heavy matte finish, which can slow down the light reflection on the top. More importantly, this screen also has 120Hz and has been measured by Bonnie, with a maximum brightness of 560 nits . Up to 100% sRGB, 99% DCI-P3 Delta E is only 1.72, the overall performance is better than the main screen of many laptops , and the lower half of the C side is the keyboard . It has a backlight , but it is a regular white backlight. Overall The hand feel will be a relatively crisp and neat film feel, and the typing feel is good , but the key travel is the general performance . The following Bonnie also provides a radio for your reference . The touchpad part on the right side is still the same sentence. Drag up and down to browse the web. Problem But when you want to work, connect the mouse to the choice . The left and right buttons are physical buttons, you need to get used to it a little. Finally, let's go directly to the performance test . Bonnie's Zenbook Pro 14 Duo OLED (UX8402) is equipped with this year's The very powerful 12th generation Intel Core i9-12900H processor should be familiar to everyone. It uses a 6P plus 8E architecture with a total of 14 cores and 20 threads. The memory part has no surprises in this volume. It is paired with a 32GB LPDDR5 4800MHz dual The channel memory storage space part uses a 1TB PCIe 4.0 SSD. Bonnie's measured sequential read and write has reached 7000MB/s read and 5200MB/s write. The highest Wi-Fi 6E communication is supported by Intel's AX211. On the GPU, it is equipped with a GeForce RTX 3050 Ti . The maximum frequency can reach 65W and the maximum frequency is 1035MHz. From the specifications, it can be seen that this generation of Zenbook Pro 14 Duo OLED (UX8402) is the same as the previous generation 14-inch . There is a big difference in thinking of the dual-screen laptops of the previous generation. The 14-inch Zenbook Duo 14 of the previous generation is more like creating a top-notch thin and light laptop. The TDP of the whole machine is about 30W . This time, the Zenbook Pro 14 Duo OLED (UX8402) is more like creating a powerful laptop in a 14-inch volume. In addition to using the H45 standard pressure processor, the overall performance of directly pulling the TDP to 85W under this volume is still quite good. Next , Bonnie will directly show you the actual performance . First of all, when you see Cinebench R23 , you can see that the Intel i9-12900H single-core scored 1933 points this time, compared to the previous generation Intel i9-11900H. The single-core has increased by 23% , and the multi-core has increased by 38%. Compared with the 12th generation Intel i7-12700H, the single- core difference has also reached 7% , and the multi-core has reached 19%. More importantly, the H45 is used this time . The standard pressure processor of the previous generation pair The comparison group should actually be the 11th generation thin and light notebook Intel i7-1165G7 . The difference will be huge . The gap between single-core is 37%, and the multi-core is worse to 3.7 times. It is not a performance of a class at all. Overall For this time, ASUS really put a beast in this 14-inch machine . Next , Bonnie also directly helped you to measure the performance of professional performance. First of all , the 4K original film with a total length of 10 minutes was used, and after simple color correction and The final 4K output of the mix is also the NVIDIA Studio version of the driver. General users can refer to this test result . First , in the general editing test, it only took 327 seconds to complete the output. This project is mainly related to the GPU acceleration comparison, so compare the i7-11370H With RTX 3050, it is 23% faster. Compared with RTX 3060, there is a 14% difference. Finally , compared with last year's i7-1165G7, Zenbook Pro 14 Duo OLED (UX8402) takes almost 1/3 of the time. Finished. Then we measured the heavy editing . It will start with high performance requirements such as Bonnie. The test content includes full 4K material editing and very heavy AE animation color mixing and mixing, and multi-track editing will be more complicated . Zenbook Pro 14 Duo OLED (UX8402) It took a total of 37 minutes and 27 seconds to complete the output . Compared with the 12th generation i7-12700H, it saved 20% of the time. If compared with the i7-11370H + RTX 3050, it was also 33% faster and compared to the i7-1165G7, which took 1 hour, 16 minutes and 24 seconds to complete. It only took half the time to complete the output. Overall, the 12th generation i9 is really good for video output. After watching the professional performance , let's look at the game performance . First of all, I saw the 3DMark Time Spy Zenbook Pro 14 Duo OLED (UX8402). Compared with the 50W RTX 3050, it has a 21% improvement. Compared with the i7-1165G7 with Irix Xe (96EU), it has more than three times the improvement. However, if compared with the 75W RTX 3050 Ti and the 65W RTX 3060 There is a difference of 15% and 21% respectively . In the stress test, Bonnie also directly ran the 3DMark Time Spy 20 rounds of tests, and the stability reached 98.8%. The whole GPU temperature is about 70. The actual measurement of the fan volume during the stress test is in performance mode. Fan The highest volume is about 57db. The volume is slightly louder. Bonnie also actually measures the temperature of the fuselage. The highest temperature on the front falls in the middle of the fuselage, reaching 42 degrees. Keyboard The highest temperature in the area is also controlled at around 33 degrees. It can be seen that benefiting from the heat dissipation design of AAS Ultra, the temperature in the use area is not high , but the volume of the fan running at full speed is more sensible. Then we directly conduct the game measurement. The first one is the same as the basic one. CS: GO can reach 137FPS at the highest quality of 2K without too much pressure, and the highest quality of FHD can reach 264FPS, followed by Tomb Raider: Shadow , which can reach an average of 69FPS under the extremely high quality of FHD. After DLSS is turned on, it is possible. If it reaches 106FPS, if you want to go to 2K, it is very high. If you don’t open DLSS, it is about 47FPS. It is recommended to open DLSS to achieve an average of 75FPS . There is no pressure to run Forza 4. FHD high-definition 119FPS, full 2K high-definition also has 98FPS, followed by GhostWire: Tokyo. Under FHD high image quality, it can reach an average of 84FPS . After turning on DLSS, there are hundreds of frames and an average performance of 119FPS. If you want to go to 2K high image quality, you can reach an average of 52.4FPS . After turning on DLSS, you can further achieve a smooth running of 86FPS . The performance test software Cyberpunk 2077 reaches about 43FPS in 2K medium quality . If you turn on DLSS , you will have a smooth running of 71FPS. If you want to turn on ray tracing, you still need DLSS to stabilize the frame rate . In FHD, ray tracing can reach an average of about 40FPS after turning on DLSS. Overall It is said that the Zenbook Pro 14 Duo OLED (UX8402) occasionally needs to play mainstream games outside of work. A little adjustment of the picture quality settings can also achieve smooth running. In a masterpiece like Cyberpunk 2077, the picture quality will be more limited , but Tomb Raider: Shadow Forza 4 Even Ghost Line Tokyo has broken 100 frames under FHD and can eat around 120 FPS , which is still enough for daily play. In the battery life part , Zenbook Pro 14 Duo OLED (UX8402) uses a 76Wh battery in Bonny’s In the battery life test, 200 nits of continuous playback of Full HD video for one hour consumed 22% , and in the PCMark 10 modern office battery life test, it scored 4 hours and 53 minutes. Overall, it is the power performance of an efficient laptop. If you go out , it is recommended to take it with you. A single charger is still relatively safe. Then , during the charging test, Bonnie actually used the 180W charger that came with the original factory to charge 46% in 30 minutes , and it took 1 hour and 52 minutes to fully charge it to 80% in one hour . By the way, this time the same Supports 100W PD fast charging. It will be more lightweight to carry a small-sized PD when going out . Finally , Zenbook P has sound effects The ro 14 Duo OLED (UX8402) uses a speaker adjusted by harman/kardon. The maximum volume measured by Bonnie can reach about 91 decibels. The sound effect also supports Dolby Atmos. The following Bonnie provides an actual measurement for your reference . Ni also provides all the benchmarks for your reference. Overall , this generation of Zenbook Pro 14 Duo OLED (UX8402) should be said to be a major facelift of this generation. In addition to being as full as possible in terms of performance, the first 2.8K The performance of 120Hz OLED on the screen is still very dazzling. Bonnie also recommends that you go to the scene to experience the current progress of OLED on the laptop side. With the new AAS Ultra lift design , it can achieve dual-screen performance at the same time. It is a cool hinge structure to make the heat dissipation and the tilt angle of the screen more flexible , but you need to pay a little attention when you cover it . Regarding the actual experience of the second screen ScreenPad Plus, Bonnie still recommends that you can face yourself. It will be easier to think about the situation of use, and the creator will be more comfortable to use it for multiple tasks. Finally, this laptop also perfectly illustrates how many cool things can be packed into a 14-inch laptop . Well, the program of this episode is here first.
