    Misleading video about Bluetooth keyboard.

    I own all 3 duets because we love these Chromebooks. I got this one for my wife to teach with partly because the video here said that you can detach the keyboard and use it wirelessly via Bluetooth. This is incorrect and not sure what the lady in the video was smoking, but she was definitely not using the keyboard wirelessly as there is no battery or radio capabilities in the keyboard. You can use a different Bluetooth keyboard but not the one provided. Hope that helps as the video is misleading.

    Great little tablet with keyboard. Gets the job done, clear screen with a nice feel to the keys. Best of all; my daughter loves it! Pick it up if you can get it for $350 or less.

    Great screen color, weird buggy software, extremely slow, not supporting youtube app so you have to use the webapp whichis also extremely slow and makes it even worse. Speakers are tiny, worse than my phone. Can't rely on it. The case sith keyboard is awesome, so having this included with the tablet makes it good value. If not for the included keyboard case and the nice oled, I would give this 1-2 stars. Yield your expectations and you will be happy with it. It's not a bad product for less than 3 ben franklins, but for MSRP you could find some windows laptops with much better specs and great performance. If you wanna consume media, get an android tablet instead. You can find them around the same price with much better quality and most importantly, way more speed. Also this tablet has a screen color correction bug. If you go full screen on web browser, colors willl flicker from normal to an extreme saturation profile; it's very annoying and unnatural looking. Netflix app works terrible on this, everything is grainy and gray; you have to use the web to get a decent experience. Who is this tablet good for? Maybe if you type a lot, and occasionally consume media.

    The Lenovo Chromebook Duet 5 is exactly what I wanted. It is versatile. The removable keyboard is big enough for laptop use and the screen tablet is a great size. A backlit keyboard is the only thing I've really missed over my old laptop. It is very comparable to a higher priced competitor.

    Great screen. I think I like the kickstand, but I’m used to this from my Microsoft Surface. What makes me hesitant on this design is that the kickstand is in the cover and not part of the computer case.

    This is the best chromebook you can buy for the money. It is around 350 and the specs are those of a chromebook plus that retails upwards of 450. The tablet/laptop mode is useful.
