You get what you get when it comes to storage and that’s it. Lenovo will offer this device with either 64 or 128 GB of eMMC 5.1 storage but not with a microSD card.
At least for now.Īnd another thing to watch out for: Local storage capacity. That could be a downer for those planning to take notes on this tablet. However, due to the higher resolution of the Duet 3, that’s not the case. You’d think any USI stylus would work because the ”U” stands for universal. Lenovo has one in the works but no date for availability. That’s because the Duet 3 supports USI 2.0 and those pens aren’t available yet. You don’t get a USI stylus in the box and unfortunately, you’re not going to be using one if you already have a USI stylus.

And the keyboard uses Lenovo’s scalloped keycaps, which improves the typing experience.Īll in all, this is a well-built, lightweight Chrome OS tablet that looks and feels better than you’d expect at this price. The Duet 3 also gains a USB Type-C port, so there’s now one on each side.

At some point during my Chromebook Duet 3 review period, the price was temporarily discounted to $259 however, at the moment, Lenovo’s site doesn’t show availability at any price. Lenovo sent me the base model of this device, which I believe has an MSRP of $379.
Do they bring big improvements? Read on for my Lenovo Chromebook Duet 3 review and the answer to that question. The updates are relatively small, which is fitting for Lenovo’s portable 11-inch Chrome OS tablet. Two years later, there’s a successor device in the Lenovo Chromebook Duet 3. In 2020, the original Lenovo Chromebook Duet earned my pick as Chromebook of the year.
