Wondering if it's simply a drawing touchpad, or an actual second screen screen. Cuz if it's an actual second screen, then that would be phenomenal for developers. We can run our emulators and test devs on the second screen, and since the main screen is so wide, we can do multitasking pretty smoothly.
It's always cool to see innovative stuff like this. The wider than average main screen and extra drawing screen is quite cool. However being that size without a GPU kind of hurts it's usefulness to me. But for people that just do productive tasks or light photo/video editing and watch ultrawide movies.. It'd be a cool niche product.
I absolutely love the concept! However... Intel i7 CPU? Integrated GPU? A 400 nits screen? That simply won't do it, I'm afraid... And, yes, the screen should also have been 16:10 though it being 17" makes it comparable to 16" 16:10 screens. But a weak CPU, no dedicated GPU, and a washed-out 400 nit screen are deal-breakers for me...
if it would come with dGPU and without that draw pad, some upfacis sound dynamics and full keyboard - would buy. I wanted ultrawide laptop for so long.
Such an awesome laptop!! would be a very very apt tool for many creative professional! the wide screen is a problem though..., especially when there are not many backpacks available to fit that width...
This got my interest, last week already, but as soon as I go to the Lenovo website here I get the notice it's not available anymore. This looks like a great concept, but seems only be available in the US at the moment. No clue when it's coming back, so I decided to go with a different model, the new IdeaPad Flex 5 Gen 8 16". My last Lenovo was the Miix 510-12ikb from 2017. I enjoyed that one a lot, curious to see how this newest model will do. It should arrive early next week. Haven't had an AMD cpu since the Athlon 64, that's a long time ago. Curious to see how this Flex 5 with Ryzen 7 7730u will do.
Depends if your software can benefit from AMD iGPU or not and then you have a small screen so it's okish only if you have to do something on the move or when you connect it to a bigger display. The 2023 version with Oculink could be way better when paired with dGPU via this connector.
On top of that you have to settle for integrated graphics. Limited video editing power and poor battery life. So it's limited to specific use cases. I wonder if you can turn off the extra screen to help save battery though?
@Ben I know this doesn't pertain to the above unboxing but can you kindly give me your feedback on which item you would purchase. The MSI Raider GE 66 with the I9 processor or the Acer Predator Triton 500 Se with the I9? It would be greatly appreciated!
@@BenGKaiser Thanks for the reply, means a lot to me... I'm glad to hear your reply because I pulled the trigger on in the Acer before reading this.. Wishing you all the best!! Hope to see 100K sooner rather than later!!
You could screen record for sure with this i7-12700h. If you wanted to capture card a 4K camera I would recommend having a dedicated GPU. Which this does not.
@@rogat174 Completely different functionality and usage scenarios. The Zephyrus/Zenbook Duo additional screens serve primarily as toolbars/notification bars. Their location and form factor does not make them useful for drawing and doodling. This one, on the other hand, does...
