DisplayĪs for the display, the device sports a 10.1” full high definition IPS display with 400 nits and 10 point touchscreen, which is nothing short of amazing.

The device also weighs less than a pound and is 0.29 inches thick, making it one of the most lightweight options that you can take a look into. The tactile and responsive keys come with a 1.3mm key travel. The comfort of typing makes this a very productive device that you wouldn’t regret spending your coins on at all. It allows you to use it in three modes including typing, watching and browsing with the keyboard, with the stand cover and just holding the keyboard respectively.Īnother factor about the design is the ergonomic keyboard.

The device comes with a completely detachable keyboard that makes it a lot easier for you to use, especially when you are traveling. It also has a 135-degree kick stand, which again is pretty amazing. The contemporary design of the device comes with a fabric like back cover which converts to a stand. It prevents unnecessary fatigue while you are using it, which is pretty awesome. The adjustable stand cover makes the device match with the ergonomics of the user. The Lenovo Chromebook Duet is completely constructed with aluminum alloy which makes it extremely lightweight but at the same time, extremely durable as well. It can be used as a standard laptop, or even a tablet. Unlike most Chromebooks, the Duet lacks a microSD card slot, so you're limited to either 64GB or 128GB storage.The very first factor or feature of this device that stands out is the three different intuitive modes that you can use it in. They sound underpowered and soft at mid volumes and are overly harsh and strained at higher volumes. It doesn't help that the Duet's speakers are terrible. Yes, there is no headphone jack, though Lenovo includes a USB-C to 3.5mm converter.

The screen bezels may not be the narrowest, but neither are they chunky. It is crisp and bright (400 nits) with good viewing angles. I was also impressed by the Duet's glossy 10.1-inch IPS display. The bundled fabric stand cover magnetically attaches to the back of the device while its adjustable kickstand lets you prop the Duet on your lap or desk. Without the keyboard, it weighs a handy 450g. The Duet probably works best as a tablet.
