Lenovo is broadening its Chromebook range with the introduction of the new Chromebook Duet and Chromebook Duet EDU G2 laptops. The company recently launched the Legion G7 gaming smartphone and tablets in China, and now they have rolled out two convertible Chromebook models in the US at a budget-friendly price. Here’s what to know about the specifications, pricing, and more.
Unique Features of the Lenovo Chromebook Duet Series
These laptops are quite alike when it comes to specifications and features, but there are slight variations. Lenovo introduced the Chromebook Duet series with a 10.95-inch WUXGA display that has a 16:10 aspect ratio, a peak brightness of 400 nits, TUV Low Blue Light certification, and protection from Corning Gorilla Glass 3. Inside, the pair are powered by the MediaTek Kompanio 838 SoC, which is combined with up to 8GB of LPDDR4X RAM and 128GB of eMMC storage.
Details on the Chromebook Duet Series Laptops
As indicated by the name, these laptops operate on ChromeOS straight out of the box and claim to deliver up to 12 hours of battery life. They are slim and lightweight, weighing just 510 grams and measuring only 7.59mm thick in tablet mode. However, you'll probably be using this laptop along with the Folio keyboard and Stand Cover for better usability.
