    • Unless otherwise stated, all performance claims are based on theoretical performance. Actual figures may vary in real-world situations.
    • In PCMark 10 tests, ZenBook Pro Duo performed 1.43x faster than a rival laptop powered by an Intel® Core™ i9-8950HK processor.
    • As measured by SYSmark® 2014 SE – overall score comparing 9th Gen Intel® Core™ i9-9980HK vs. 8th Gen Intel® Core™ i9-8950HK.
    • With extended long-term use, OLED displays can show slight visual changes. This is also expected behavior and can include effects such as image persistence or burn-in, where the display shows a faint remnant of an image even after a new image appears on the screen. This can occur in more extreme cases such as when the same high contrast image is continuously displayed for prolonged periods of time. ASUS has engineered the OLED display to reduce the effects of OLED burn-in. High dynamic range (HDR) means that your display is able to playback HDR content. With ZenBook Pro Duo UX581, you can enjoy the following functions:

      1. Watch HDR streaming videos

      If the video supports HDR, UX581 will automatically prioritize the HDR version for playback for the best viewing experience. As the HDR streaming processing is not fully optimized in Google Chrome, we recommend using Microsoft Edge as your internet browser for the best visual experience.

      2. Play HDR-capable games, media, and other apps

      If you own HDR content and would like to view it in HDR on UX581, please first connect UX581 to the DC power supply. Open Display Settings, select Windows HD Color settings, then switch on Play HDR games and apps. When this function is turned on, the display's brightness may be reduced and you will need to readjust the brightness to the desired level. Also, the color of the Windows Desktop may change, but this won’t affect HDR functions. We recommend you only switch on Play HDR games and apps when you use related apps. For non-streaming HDR videos with HEVC decoder requirements, we also recommend using Microsoft’s built-in Movies & TV app.

    Game-changing performance
    Intel® Optane™ memory H10 with Solid State Storage takes advantage of Intel® 3D NAND technology to give you 1.35X faster read speeds compared to NAND SSDs, even with multiple apps running in the background. The drive remembers the most frequently accessed files and apps, and caches them for more responsive performance so you won’t have to wait for your laptop to catch up, no matter the workload.
    Eight cores for pro
    The latest Intel® Core™ i9-9980HK processor harnesses the awesome power of eight separate cores, and has a Turbo Boost frequency of up to 5GHz that outclasses most of the competition. That’s why ZenBook Pro Duo is one of the most powerful laptops for discerning on-the-go professionals.
