ASUS plans to launch the ROG Zephyrus Duo (2026) GX651 in India by the end of June, according to tipster Yogesh Brar, who posted the claim on his verified social channels.
The machine carries two 16-inch 3K OLED touch displays, both running at 120Hz — a dual-screen configuration that sets it apart from conventional gaming laptops.
The primary display handles gaming and creative work. The secondary panel gives users a persistent workspace for applications such as Discord, streaming dashboards, video editing timelines, or system monitoring.
The top-tier configuration pairs Intel’s Core Ultra 9 386H processor with NVIDIA’s GeForce RTX 5090 Laptop GPU. That GPU carries up to 24GB of GDDR7 memory and runs at a 150W total graphics power (TGP) rating, a measure of the maximum power the chip draws under load.
The system also includes 32GB of LPDDR5X RAM, a 1TB PCIe 5.0 solid-state drive, and a 90Wh battery.
Pricing
In the United States, the RTX 5090 configuration retails at approximately $5,500, according to ASUS’s official product listings. Brar estimates Indian pricing could reach around ₹5.2 lakh after import duties and applicable taxes.
That figure places the Zephyrus Duo firmly in the ultra-premium segment, above the majority of workstation-class laptops currently available in India.
Market Context
ASUS has offered secondary-display laptops under the Duo name before, with earlier models drawing mixed reviews over the practicality of the smaller companion screen. This generation uses two full 16-inch panels rather than the narrower secondary strip found on previous versions.
The Indian gaming laptop market has grown steadily in recent years. IDC reported that gaming notebook shipments in Asia-Pacific rose through 2024, driven by demand from younger consumers and content creators.
ASUS positions the Zephyrus Duo toward streamers, video editors, and power Users Who regularly run multiple applications alongside a primary workload — a narrower audience than its mainstream ROG Strix or TUF lines serve.
No official launch date or confirmed Indian retail price has yet come from ASUS directly.
