It’s good to see Lenovo making significant changes.
ASUS and Lenovo refreshed their dual-screen laptops at CES 2025.
That’ll make them a lot easier on the eyes.
Here’s a closer look at the specs of Gen 9 and Gen 10 Yoga Book 9i models.
Unfortunately, some of my main gripes about the Yoga Book 9i continue into 2025.
A look at the refreshed Yoga Book 9i 14 (Gen 10) at CES 2025. Still no touchpad on the keyboard.
The keyboard still feels like an afterthought, lacking a backlight and physical touchpad.
The stand and keyboard still travel separately, which ASUS has remedied with its different design choices.
I wasn’t expecting this change, and indeed, Lenovo has stuck with its three Thunderbolt 4 ports.

It’s easy to carry a dongle these days, but ASUS has a better selection of native ports.
My own opinion of the 2024 Zenbook DUO is largely the same.
The laptop isn’t perfect.

Here’s a look at the specs of the 2024 and 2025 Zenbook DUO models.
It’s not hard to spot the differences between models.
Dimensions and weight are identical, and the outstanding OLED touch displays remain the same.

With the addition of FHD+ display options, ASUS can undercut the Yoga Book 9i’s price.
Will folding laptop screens ever return?
I don’t doubt that we’ll one day see more laptops with folding screens.

There’s some demand somewhere, but the market is undoubtedly small.
Dual-screen laptops like the Zenbook DUO and Yoga Book 9i are far better than I ever expected.
The ASUS Zenbook DUO has built-in tools for easier collaboration.
