![[UPDATED: In Stock] You can now buy the Snapdragon-powered Lenovo Duet 5 Chromebook](https://chromeunboxed.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/lenovo-ideapad-duet-13.jpg)
Update: I’m not sure if this is a result of the popularity of this device or perhaps Best Buy listed it early but the Duet 5 is now showing as “sold out.” We will update when the listing goes live again. Update #2: It appears that the Lenovo Duet 5 Chromebook is once again available […]
Last week, we received a tip that Lenovo’s upcoming Snapdragon-powered Duet 5 Chromebook tablet would soon be arriving at select Costco stores. We don’t have a solid release date for that model at this time and the 13.3″ tablet has yet to show up on Costco’s website. Thankfully, this isn’t the only configuration of the […]
We’re about one-third of the way into the month that Lenovo promised we’d see the release of the highly-anticipated Duet 5 Chromebook tablet. Rocking a 13.3″ OLED display and detachable keyboard, the Duet 5 will be the first of its kind in the Chrome OS space and we have high hopes that it could help […]
Snapdragon 7c Chromebooks haven’t had the rosiest reception out of the gate. The few we’ve tested have been a bit laggy and though we don’t expect most users are looking for top-tier performance from the mobile-first processor, the number of readers we’ve had express frustration over their Snapdragon 7c Chromebooks is definitely a tad bit […]
In the market for a new tablet? You may want to consider a Chromebook before you go dropping money on that new iPad Mini or a pricey Android tablet. Why? You ask. Well, for the second time in less than a month, Best Buy has dropped the price on HP’s all-new 11″ Chromebook x2 tablet. […]
Earlier this week, I highlighted a great deal on Lenovo’s tiny Chromebook Duet tablet that was going for $229 at Best Buy. I still think that’s a very solid price if you’re looking for a secondary Chromebook or just a straight-up tablet to have at your disposal. The 10.1″ Chrome OS tablet has one of […]
We’re not too far out from the release of the recently-announced Lenovo Chromebook Duet 5 and in preparation of this device’s arrival, we’ve been doing a bit of research around the 2nd-gen Qualcomm Snapdragon 7c that will be powering this interesting detachable Chromebook. You see, the Duet 5 isn’t just a simply sequel to the […]
![HP Chromebook x2 11 review: tablet dreams, Chromebook realities [VIDEO]](https://chromeunboxed.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/HPChromebookx2-11-review-featured-image.jpg)
I have to be honest right up front: I’m not really a tablet guy. I want to be – I promise – but when it comes down to it, a large-screened phone handles most of my gaming, reading and casual consumption stuff and when I need a bigger screen, I normally want a keyboard to […]
The Chrome OS tablet space is finally starting to expand and we will soon see more and more high-end, premium devices in this growing niche. Now that OEMs are finally starting to produce Snapdragon-powered devices and MediaTek is gearing up to launch newer, more powerful SoCs for Chromebook tablets, this once dying segment has been […]
While this update has been a long time coming, it’s yet to make an official appearance until today. On Chrome OS 96 Canary, the camera app on my Pixelbook Go displayed the message you see below, indicating that instead of having to scan through the traditional built-in ‘Scan’ app, I could technically capture a document […]
Lenovo recently announced the new Chromebook Duet 5, an OLED-toting, 13.3-inch Chromebook tablet that takes what many loved in the original Duet and expands on it in nearly every way. The screen is bigger/better, the keyboard is full-size, there’s a pen included (with a place to keep it) and the processor gets a big upgrade […]
It wasn’t too long ago that the Chrome OS tablet was on its last leg and unfortunately, Google’s own Pixel Slate did little to save the form-factor. Many would argue that the ultra-premium detachable Chromebook was such a flop that it soured other manufacturers from even attempting to create another device in the same vein. […]
