The Lenovo Chromebook Duet doesn’t have the most brilliant screen, reaching 372 nits of brightness, but this mini 2-in-1 shined brighter than its rivals The Samsung Chromebook 3 only output 259 nits of brightness while the HP Chromebook x360 12b is even dimmer with 216 nits of brightness. The Duet also surpassed the color accuracy of the average Chromebook by a landslide (12.61). This aligns with the Samsung Chromebook 3’s 0.2 Delta-E rating, but the Duet beats the HP Chromebook x360 12b’s 0.3 rating.
The Lenovo Chromebook Duet is also highly color accurate with a near-perfect 0.2 Delta-E rating (closer to 0 is best). So, you want to know about the Duet’s ports? I’d remove the “s” - this Chromebook only has one USB Type-C port that supports power charging, data transfer, DisplayPort and USB on-the-go. The miniature Chrome OS laptop is smaller than its rivals: the Samsung Chromebook 3’s footprint is 11 x 8 x 0.7 inches while the HP Chromebook x360 12b takes up 11 x 9 x 0.7 inches. The Lenovo Chromebook Duet with the keyboard and kickstand cover has the dimensions of 9.6 x 6.7 x 0.7 inches while the tablet alone is 9.4 x 6.3 x 0.3 inches. The Duet weighs less than its competitors: the Samsung Chromebook 3 (2.5 pounds) and the HP Chromebook x360 12b (3 pounds).
The whole package, stand cover and keyboard included, weighs only 2 pounds. The Lenovo Chromebook Duet is a featherweight machine that can fit snugly in the small compartment of my travel tote. You can also get a detachable Bluetooth keyboard and the Lenovo Active Pen 3, sold separately.You can also fold the laptop into a book-like form and onlookers would be amazed to discover that you’re not holding a little notebook. 5 MP front camera with IR for face unlock.The storage is user-replaceable and we’re dealing with a M.2 2242 PCie Gen 4 SSD. Other details about this 2 in 1 include the LPDDR4X RAM inside, which is soldered to the mainboard, which means you’re not going to do upgrades anytime soon. Lenovo also mentioned at some point back in early 2022 that it was thinking about offering an Intel Pentium 8505 processor model, but it seems to have canned it. We also have a higher powered Core i5 version, with an Intel Core i5-1235U processor inside or an Intel Core i7-1255U CPU, 16 GB of RAM and a 512 GB SSD. There’s also 8 GB of RAM and 128 GB of SSD storage. In the US the only model available is a Best Buy exclusive, that’s priced at $790 and relies on an Intel Core i3-1215U processor, with 2 performance cores, 4 efficiency cores and Intel UD Graphics. This is by no means fresh meat, as the product was announced in February and now it’s up for purchase in USA, Hong Kong and Singapore.
