We were beside ourselves when Lenovo announced the company’s second Snapdragon-powered Duet tablet at MWC 2022.

I will never, ever tire of sharing this deal with our readers. The Lenovo Duet 5 Chromebook remains the gold standard for ChromeOS tablets.

The Samsung Galaxy Chromebook 2 was a bit of an oddity when it was released.

This week, we felt it was only fitting to not only discuss Stadia’s final death, but also the cloud gaming revolution it looks to have started.
