The present invention provides a portable dual display reader including a first panel, a second panel, and an embedded system. The second panel attaches to one side of the first panel to be selectively in a folded configuration and an unfolded configuration. The embedded system is coupled to either the first panel or second panel. The embedded system has a microprocessor, a data source, and an operation system. The microprocessor processes or compiles a data string from the data source and displays the data string simultaneously on the first panel and the second panel. The operation system allows a user to enter at least one command to drive the related hardware apparatus of the embedded system, so as to accomplish the operation of the command. The data string further includes a first data string. The operation system cuts the first data string into several data segments and selectively displays the data segments on the first panel and the second panel in a sequential or non-sequential mode.
