ASUS unveiled the latest laptops in their premium ZenBook series to the Sri Lankan market at a virtual launch event held recently. The two laptops – the 4K OLED 15.6″ ZenBook Pro Duo 15 OLED (UX582) and master multitasker ZenBook Duo 14 (UX482EG) – are an evolution of the stunning ZenBook industrial design of its predecessors and were the recipients of the prestigious 2021 CES® Innovation Awards earlier this year.
The special launch event was streamed live on multiple online platforms, including the ASUS Sri Lanka Facebook page and YouTube channel, and was witnessed by a large audience who got a first-hand look at the two revolutionary laptops. The audience was captivated by the entertainment provided by leading celebrities Stephanie Siriwardhana and Dushyanth Weeraman while popular Sri Lankan tech experts Chanux Bro, RatTec, PcguideLK, and SL Geek shared their opinions and insights on the wide-ranging capabilities of the two powerful laptops. For those who missed the event, the entire event is currently available for viewing on ASUS Sri Lanka’s YouTube, Facebook and Instagram platforms.

Ultrafast storage with up to a 1TB PCIe 3.0 x4 SSD helps accelerate any creative workflow and optimize productivity.

The 4K OLED HDR NanoEdge touchscreen in ZenBook Pro Duo 15 OLED has a frameless four-sided slim-bezel design with a 93% screen-to-body ratio that maximizes screen space.
