Is it a meme?
What do people actually use the laptop screen for
like that ergonomically? if you were using your left hand you'd have to rest it on the keyboard
the screen doesnt even fold flat

assuming that's a touch screen given how big the buttons and wheels there are, with my hand on it, is it a good tradeoff for for physical buttons... better than needing to memorize functions like this.
for drawing that's probably not the best use of it, I have seen these used to shift video timelines down to and that makes a lot more sense but lets assume drawing, i could probably hit the button with my pinky faster than I could remember the hotkey and hit it on keyboard if my hand wasn't areadly on the buttons, ctrl+z is an example of where I would keep my hand there.
but lets say you want to undo something but then you decided maybe a smaller brush size is easier, thats now cross keyboard hand movement where you have to look down, where if my hand was already there, its just my pinky rotating the digital dial a bit while my indes is still at the undo.
opacity and hardness would be VERY useful in the configuration they have, I argue that flow should also be over there.
personally I would just get a tourbox, having one and how fricking useful it is, I can't see using a computer without one now.

>better than needing to memorize functions like this
If you can't remember a shortcut in couple weeks it just means you aren't using the function often enough for it to matter (or the program has shitty design and doesn't let you discover shortcuts).
I accidentally made it a habit when I started using graphics tablets for taking notes. Now I'm back to regular grip since I made a lot of paper notes recently.
I do drawing on my laptop and my PC + tablet and I can say with absolute certainty that doing this would suck ass. The main screen would move ever so slightly as you awkwardly poked it with a pen and keyboard shortcuts are a thing so it's just straight up useless.
What would catch my eye would be a laptop that has a removable keyboard to reveal a pressure sensitive tablet underneath in an otherwise normal laptop chassis.
But i'm some weird freak that draws with my left and while using a 12 button mouse for my shortcuts with my right hand and prefer a regular tablet over an active digitizer screen.
Thinking about it, the second screen would be useful for things like the color wheel and maybe some other panels you can't easily shortcut so you can at least not clutter up the main screen so I can see the benefit there at least.
Honestly, if they shipped a version with an AMD GPU I would be first in line to buy one when I got enough money.
But after dealing with an nvidia gayming laptop for years, I would rather shoot myself in the foot than buy anything njudea again.
I have one of these because I tend to multitask overly, it's got some trade offs but depending how you use it I find the quirks tolerable for the advantage of that second monitor. It's not great to use on your lap on a couch unless you've got a lap desk because of it's keyboard placement and the way it lifts in the back but it's pretty great sitting down at a desk
I had one of these for a few days and returned it.
The second screen was actually pretty cool, the reason I ended up returning it was due to the performance not being anywhere near what I wanted, and the stylus being a piece of shit that was just going to scratch the screen.
There are plenty of reasons to not use this thing, but the second screen isn't one of them. I'd buy one that had the quality of a Samsung stylus in a heartbeat.
I'd buy one of these as a desktop replacement when I'm out of town if it came in a screen size larger than 14". For something like this that's way too small. Also OLED on a laptop is moronic.
Yes
there are keyboard shortcuts that you can use without ever taking your pen off the screen
>implying normies even know what a shortcut means on a keyboard

I hate people who hold a pen like this

Kek, that looks like a stock photo. Does anybody unironically do this?

Is this considered as a second screen by the computer ?
Yes
playing some youtube friend simulator videos while playing a game on the main screen

Whats a good ASUS laptop under $1,000 that is powerful enough to run emulators and maybe some games but not a powerhouse that overheats?
Why Asus specifically? Get a Lenovo Legion 5.
amd sucks
this model of laptop is available with team red and blue CPU's, homosexual
i know a moron biden bot that bought one after the election with their soros money its fricking moronic

Most likely a productivity thing for professionals.
Not for regular users.

If I see you using a laptop like this I instantly assume you're an incel.
Looks like a solution to a problem nobody had.

You honestly can't think of one reason why someone with a laptop would need a screen? What are they supposed to use, morse code?
are you moronic? this is official fastman coding laptop apparel
Seems like it'd be nice for ds emulation
