The ninth-generation Lenovo Chromebook Duet is an 11-inch 2-in-1 laptop/tablet that combines a nice display, a versatile form factor, and accessible hardware for a very agreeable price of $359. It’s essentially a tablet that comes with a keyboard and a magnetized backing with a foldable kickstand for either landscape or portrait mode.
We went hands-on with the previous version of the Duet back in 2022, and even though we praised it then for its versatility, this year’s device is a little more sophisticated, in part due to upgraded hardware, but also due to improvements made to ChromeOS. More on that in a bit.
