#DUET CHROMEBOOK HOW TO#

(It takes some fussing with your fingernails to open the kickstand, which pivots through 135 degrees, without removing the stand cover.) With all three pieces combined, the Duet trio forms a 2.03-pound sandwich. The third bit is a magnetically attached keyboard with touchpad, which can flip up to cover the screen. The second is a gray fabric 'stand cover,' a magnetically attached back panel that has a kickstand you can fold out to prop up the tablet on a desk. The 1-pound aluminum alloy tablet is the first (and most important) piece. Aĭubbed the 'IdeaPad Duet Chromebook' outside the U.S., the Chromebook Duet is really a trio, of sorts, if you count its main components. And in every way from comfortable typing to smart tablet gestures, it's a nifty productivity and streaming entertainment device. You can technically call it a 10.1-inch tablet with a standard keyboard and kickstand-and you can grumble about its having only one port, a USB 2.0 Type-C (Lenovo throws in a 3.5mm audio adapter for your headphones)-but it's a full-fledged Chromebook. Today, the Lenovo Chromebook Duet is an Editors' Choice at half that price: $299.99, with a surprising 128GB of eMMC flash storage aboard (or $20 less if you settle for 64GB). In September 2018, the HP Chromebook x2, an unusual detachable 2-in-1 Chromebook, was an Editors' Choice at $599.99.
