The Lenovo Duet is a 2-in-1 Chromebook sold by Lenovo. The Duet is a 10.1-inch tablet that ships with an attachable keyboard (pixi pins) and a kick-stand case. Two models are available, one with 64 GB of storage and another with 128 GB of storage. It has 4 GB of RAM and a MediaTek CPU.
From a specification perspective the Duet is low to midrange performant device. What makes the Duet attractive is its low price, the 64 GB model has been priced at $249 and the 128 GB model is priced at $300. For that price one gets the tablet, keyboard, and kickstand case.
I bought the 128 GB model online from BestBuy on June 30, 2020. The reason why I bought the Duet is to have a Chrome OS/Android tablet. While I can use the Pixelbook in tablet mode, it is not truly a tablet, thus the Duet is the first time I've had a chance to use a Chrome OS tablet.
My primary use case of the Lenovo Duet is notetaking in Roam Research. I have the Duet positioned on my desk so that I can type notes as necessary throughout the day.
I had installed the community build of Visutal Studio Code to edit markdown and Python scripts. Microsoft has since started to release an official ARM64 build so I uninstalled the [community build](https://code.headmelted.com/) of the ARM64 version of VS-CODE and installed [the official version](https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/?dv=linuxarm64_deb) provided by Microsoft.
The Lenovo IdeaPad Duet 5 Chromebook is bigger with its 13.3-inch OLED screen with 1920×1080 resolution. This means you can take advantage of a large screen real estate whether fo work, play, or entertainment. It runs on a Snapdragon 7c Gen 2 Compute processor, 8GB of RAM, and 256GB eMMC storage. Other specs of the 2-in-1 include USB-C ports speakers and a 42Whr battery. It will be sold for $429.99 starting this October. AndroidCommunity
