Lenovo Chromebook Duet: was $299 now $229 @ Best Buy
The Lenovo Chromebook Duet was already an amazing value at full price — so getting a deal this good make it even better. This 2-in-1 is versatile and will do everything you need it to do — stream videos, make video calls, and run apps. It has a 10.1-inch screen, 128GB of storage, and 4GB of RAM.
With a 10.1-inch touchscreen, 128GB of storage, and cameras at the front and back, it has everything you need in a 2-in-1 device. In our Lenovo Chromebook Duet review, we were impressed with its performance for the low price. The screen is bright and looks great, and it can run multiple programs at once with no issues. One of the best things about it is its battery life — at 12 hours, 47 minutes it even beats the iPad, meaning you’ll be able to use it all day without having to reach for a charger.
The one thing we could knock the Duet for was the slightly cramped keyboard, but it’s hard to complain about that, given that the inclusion of a keyboard is a steal at this price. It’s one of the reasons we recommend the Lenovo Chromebook Duet for families — it can easily be passed around between everyone all day while still going strong, and it’s a good device for kids to use.
