There’s been a ton of hype around the Lenovo Chromebook Duet and its all for good reason. We’ve not had a solid Chromebook tablet in this small form factor at this sort of price in the history of Chrome OS. The interest has been strong since the debut of this tablet since January and, according […]

Key feature missing in the Lenovo Chromebook Duet keeps it from being a true Chromebook replacement
UPDATED 5/13/2020 @1:49PM – updated the current possible outputs available over USB Type C in the 3rd paragraph. From the moment I laid eyes on the Lenovo Chromebook Duet, I gave little thought to unforeseen limitations it would ship with when it finally became available. As a matter of fact, my main concern at the […]
Continue ReadingYes, the Lenovo Chromebook Duet will run Linux apps
We’ve had the Lenovo Chromebook Duet here in the office for a few days now. There will be a review forthcoming but an email from a reader prompted me to go ahead and share out the answer to a very crucial question that could be the tablet’s hinge pin for some buyers. Linux Applications. Some […]

Yesterday, Robby made a very good case as to why most shoppers will want to wait for Lenovo’s Chromebook Duet tablet as opposed to opting for the ruggedized 10e version designed for education. While I agree with his points, some of the very things that may make the 10e tablet unappealing to the average consumer […]
Continue ReadingLenovo Chromebook Duet preorder is back with a new shipping date
We’re still waiting on an “official” release date for Lenovo’s elusive Chromebook Duet tablet but if Best Buy’s website is correct, May 6 could be the big day. Just one day after preorders for the 128GB model of the Duet went live on Best Buy’s site, the electronics retailer updated the listing to “coming soon” […]
Continue ReadingJust like that, Best Buy pulls down the Lenovo Chromebook Duet pre-orders
I warned about this possibility in the post yesterday, but it seems the pre-order status of the Lenovo Chromebook Duet has already shifted to a “coming soon” status. If you search for the device on Best Buy’s website, you’ll still see the option to pre-order in the search result, but clicking that button only gives […]

UPDATE 4/30/2020 @ 2:15pm – It looks like Best Buy has pulled down the pre-order status and replaced it with ‘coming soon.’ We’re unclear about why, but you can read more about it here. I guess its just going to be that sort of week, huh? Monday started off with the Pixel Buds app showing […]
Continue ReadingLenovo’s Chromebook Duet landing page goes live in the US, May launch looking good
“You won’t have to wait much longer.” That was the response from an undisclosed source when I asked for a ballpark release date for the Lenovo Chromebook Duet. Granted, that’s no surprise with how many listings have popped up around the web. Multiple Lenovo websites from various regions all over Europe have a landing page […]
Continue ReadingAfter using the Lenovo Chromebook 10e tablet for a few days, I have one big request
Later this week, we’re planning a video out about the thoughts I’ve put together around the Lenovo Chromebook 10e tablet. My time with this device has completely been about experiment and trial, not really about suggesting you buy it or skip it. You see, this device will likely never be a tablet I suggest most […]
Continue ReadingChromebook deals for work, school or whatever
In this week’s episode of The Chrome Cast, we discussed the ins and outs of the current Chromebook market and why getting your hands on a good device at a decent price could be a challenge for the foreseeable future. While inventory is thin and sales are tough to find, that doesn’t mean you have […]
Continue ReadingUnboxing & hands-on with the rugged version of the Lenovo Chromebook Duet
Today is kinda the day, folks: a device that is very, very similar to the Lenovo Chromebook Duet is in the house and we’re doing an old-fashioned unboxing for you to see. The Lenovo Chromebook 10e is in many ways a re-skinned version of the Chromebook Duet with an education focus in its approach to […]
Continue ReadingNumerous new Lenovo Chromebook Duet landing pages signal massive, widescale roll-out
At this point, we’re all ready for the Lenovo Duet Chromebook to just show up already. With all the landing pages and product pages and pre-order pages already out there, we are likely not far off from a launch at this point. While future Chromebooks and other electronics may get delayed due to the pandemic, […]
Continue ReadingYou can buy the Lenovo Chromebook Duet’s rugged brother right now from multiple retailers
Just yesterday I was lamenting a bit about the current state of affairs in the Chromebook world: specifically, the lack of device inventory across the board likely caused by the movement of so many workers performing their jobs at home in combination with students participating in remote learning. Right now, more than ever, it is […]
Continue ReadingAmazon’s “Most Wished For” list foreshadows massive success for Lenovo’s Chromebook Duet tablet
For the past couple of years, it hasn’t been unusual to find one or more Chromebook models on Amazon’s top-seller lists or see a Chrome device carrying the coveted Amazon Choice badge that denotes a very popular product. Ever since the days of the ASUS Chromebook Flip C302, Chromebooks have grown in popularity among Amazon […]
Continue ReadingThis new camera feature will be very useful for the Lenovo Chromebook Duet
We haven’t seen a ton of new features rolling out for the Chromebook camera lately. With the current state of cameras on Chromebooks, you can’t really blame the developers for not focusing in on this feature. Cameras across the board for Chrome OS laptops, detachables and convertibles are pretty lame with only a few standout […]
