Chromebook with a wonderful OLED display

It's a Chromebook with an OLED display. It wont run the latest games at the highest resolution, but you can definitely browse the web, answer emails, even do some productive work. Oh, did I mention the OLED screen? Colors are unbelievably saturated (in a good way) and the black is unbelievably bad. That's probably what sets the Duet 5 apart from the others. I like the integrated keyboard and the stand, too. It's like my Surface Pro, just half the price and power, and maybe the battery runs longer, too.

Excellent Chromebook for a 9-year-old birthday girl,
Large enough screen, physically convenient as tablet and computer. I just hope its battery will last long.

I like it, but I wish it had a headphone/audio jack. It is bluetooth/wifi capable, but I was hoping I can continue to use my wired headphone with this device, without having to buy an adapter or new headphones. Other than that, this Chromebook is great. The battery life is nice.

It is a nice tablet with a keyboard. Relatively not heavy. Display is bright and has vivid colors. Detachable keyboard is nice. However, it is not Bluetooth active and therefore not usable unless attach to the tablet. Overall it is a nice tablet.

After months of going back and fourth on whether I wanted to buy the Duet 5 or not, I finally decided to pull the trigger and was just waiting for it to go on sale again. Once it eventually hit it's sale price I was able to get a screamer of a deal for an Open-Box Excellent condition. I've had it for a few days now and so far I'm very pleased. The build quality is great. The product design is catching to the eye. It runs much faster than my previous Chromebook, which had an Intel M3 and 4gb ram. The 8gb of ram in the Duet 5 is very noticeable. The screen is beautiful and works great in laptop mode. I have to admit that the tablet is just a little too large when holding it in the hand. I was looking forward to reading comics on the Duet 5 and have to say the tablet is even slightly too long for comic book dimensions. It still looks great though. Lastly, the battery life on this thing is killer! I went almost 2 full work days without needing to charge and that was with mixed usage. The Duet 5 may not be for everyone but for the sale price it's hard to beat. No regrets so far.

It is quick and responsive. The keyboard is acceptable. Track pad works fine. Screen has good detail but is very reflective. Touchscreen is responsive. I would like a Matte finish for better outdoor/bright settings. Usually takes 2 tries to pair with my phones WiFi. Sound is adequate. Definitely an upgrade from the Duet 10.1.

3rd Chromebook that I own and by far this Lenovo duet is the most portable longer lasting battery life and versatile device that I have used. Always with me on the go. Chrome OS is getting better and better. It is a great companion to your mobile phone. Always connecting and synchronizing together for seemless operation. Galaxy buds also connects via Galaxy Wear App in the Chrome Android store.

I really enjoy how this interacts with my pixel phone and that I get the benefits of a tablet and a laptop while still being able to access Linux and android apps all in one.
If this took a TF card, it would be amazing. But you can still add external storage through USB c and an external card although it's limited.

I got it but returned it within a day due to the size. I opted for the hp x2 11 due to its smaller form factor. This tablet is awesome though. Keyboard was great and it has the Gen 2 version of the processor compared to the x2 11, but just too big. I use it for productivity and reading Manga and comics hence to big for my taste.

One of the best, for the money, chromebooks on the market. Smooth and still snappy interface. Processor is plenty fast and the 8GB of RAM make for an excellent experience. Also, greatly appreciate the support of Android apps in addition to default chromeos resources. The display is beautiful and touch is responsive

I upgraded from the Lenovo Duet 10.3'' and I am so happy I did. The keyboard has improved tremendously. The sound and picture quality is better. The processing speed is good - no complaints though I still don't think it can handle big tasks. I use it for email, web surfing, and school work.
I would say it's a cheaper alternative to the IPad and Samsung Tablet S7+.

I love this thing. I was skeptical about Chromebooks, I gave the Duet 5 a try, now I'm sold. Initially I thought I would be using it mostly in tablet mode but the opposite has been true--the keyboard is actually very usable. Battery life is incredible; I recharge about every 5 days or so with light to medium use. Taking the Duet 5 for travel will be so much easier than a full sized laptop. All in all, I'm very pleased.

This Chromebook is perfect for what I need. I don’t like chrome books because they tend to jump all over the place, but this one is the right size, is compatible with my printer, and tends to be better than any of them that I’ve used up to this point.
