Slowly but surely, we’re starting to see wider availability of pens bearing the Universal Stylus Initiative stamp of approval. Makers like HP, iPlume, and ASUS have had sporadic inventories of their respective USI styluses but getting one has been tough as they appear to be selling out within hours of the listings going live. Lenovo, […]
Short and sweet. USI styluses are finally hitting the consumer market and the latest model to start shipping is the affordable pen made by Lenovo. Much to my surprise, Lenovo’s USI stylus did not sell out like every other brand available. My guess is the company waited long enough to stockpile a decent inventory and […]
As much as I had hoped that Chromebook inventories would return to some form of normalcy by now, I knew in my gut that it probably wasn’t going to happen. The demand for decent and affordable hardware is just as high now as it was when the pandemic started. Import delays, slowed production and a […]
Oh, what a glorious day. As we anticipated, Lenovo has officially released its own USI stylus here in the United States. This comes just days after the pen popped up on Lenovo’s Australia site. This is awesome news for a number of reasons. First, it means that you can finally have the stylus that was […]
In all the development that has happened over the course of nearly 3 years with Snapdragon chips and Chromebooks, one thing has always felt a bit out of place to me: the lack of a tablet option. As this year began and the hype around the Lenovo Chromebook Duet ensued, it became quite clear that […]
I got to the office a little late this morning after running a few errands. (My awesome wife got me a dope new watch for my birthday and I had to have a couple of links taken out. You know, that old chestnut.) I sat down and started my daily search for in-stock Chromebooks and […]
From the look of it, Chromebook inventory is dismal and it doesn’t look like it will get better any time soon. HP recently reported an all-time quarterly record in PC sales and that growth was partially bolstered by a boost in Chromebooks shipments. The work/learn from home movement has hit large and small PC-makers alike […]
It’s no secret that finding a good Chromebook at a fair price is growing exceeding more difficult and many students are gearing up for remote learning or the return to the classroom. As a matter of fact, Google recently reported that Chromebook sales were up 127%(YoY) for the period of March to June. That becomes […]
We’ve been fielding a few emails and comments on social media expressing frustration that Lenovo’s Chromebook Duet tablet is once again unavailable from Lenovo in the United Kingdom. Just like here in the states, the Duet was on offer from Lenovo for a few days but was quickly marked “temporarily unavailable” as inventory was depleted. […]
On today’s episode of The Chromecast, we discussed the success of Lenovo’s Chromebook tablet and why exactly the unique device has become so popular among a wide range of users. Because of its popularity, finding the tiny Chromebook tablet has been a bit of a hassle for many as Lenovo sold out of the 64GB […]
The Lenovo Chromebook Duet tablet has become one of the most sought after devices of 2020 and rightfully so. Lenovo has designed a near-perfect Chrome OS tablet that strikes a harmonious chord of price, function and portability. Since its debut, the Duet has been available in the 128GB version from Best Buy when it wasn’t […]
When this email came through a few minutes ago, I admittedly got a little more excited than one would expect over a $300 tablet. Since the debut of the tiny Chrome OS tablet, we have been anxiously awaiting its arrival and now, the 64GB and 128GB models can both be found at third-party retailers such […]
