![]() ![]() ![]() We now have an 11-inch 16:10 display versus the original’s 10.1-inch measure, and things are still bright, colors are punchy and viewing angles are perfect. ![]() ![]() Thankfully, Lenovo once again took the original Duet and made it better. When we strip all the rest of this Chromebook away, you are basically holding a display, so it needs to be a good one. Small, meaningful screen upgradesįor a tablet, one of the most meaningful parts of the hardware is the screen. I really love what Lenovo has done with this hardware and in every way it is an upgrade over their first attempt. As a tablet only, that weight drops to just over 1-pound and paired with the 7.9mm thin body, this thing feels fantastic to hold. With the tablet keyboard and back plate attached, the weight is perfectly portable at just over 2-pounds. One-handed use feels perfect and the small bezels around the screen provide enough space to use this device as a tablet while remaining out of the way enough to still look modern. Once the outer parts are removed, the mostly-aluminum tablet is thin, light, and firm in the hand. It makes for a simple, clean aesthetic that feels great and looks very nice, too.Ĭrack open the casing and you are met with a very good looking tablet. With the volume rocker, power button and camera being the only other parts of the outside of this device, there’s not much else to remark on, and that’s a good thing. I wish Lenovo would have added a microphone/headphone jack ( to the selection, but it is sadly missing again. The keyboard latches on solidly, the back plate drops right into position, and the keyboard portion holds its place against the screen in a very satisfying way when things are all closed up.Īround the outside, you see the speakers placed in a far better position for stereo separation and a USB Type C port on both sides this time around. Additionally, the magnets holding things together are far stronger than on the original Duet and it makes for a more-solid feel in the hand when everything is closed up. The back plate is extremely thin and though the keyboard portion is about the same as before, the entire piece feels more sturdy. The kickstand back and detachable keyboard are here once again with their cloth exteriors just like before, but the fit and finish is so much better this time around. Before you even open this device up, you’ll notice some upgrades right off the bat. ![]()
