Compared with clamshell and convertible Chromebooks, there aren't a ton of Chromebook tablets out there on the market. That being said, there's definitely more selection in this space than we've ever had before, and that means potential buyers like you and me are going to have far more choices to wade through than we've had in the past. It's a great problem to have, sure, but a problem is still a problem, and at the end of the day, problems need to be solved. Today we want to help a bit by looking at two tablets with very similar names and very different use cases to help you sort out which one is best for you.

He said "Here in 2020 we have a few options" this man is reaching us from the past.
I thought I was the only person to catch that! LOL
He was speaking about his foresight. You know, foresight is always 2020
I have NEVER seen somebody nail pitching an ad in the middle of their video like you just did. Well placed !
What an excellent review. Exactly the information I need to help me make a purchase. My kids have a Duet 3 (which I love), but I will be needing the Duet 5.
With you 100%. I went back and forth over which size to go for, and in the end decided I wanted a laptop that could be an occasional tablet, rather than the other way around. I really like having the full size keyboard. Text could be rendered more sharply, but otherwise I'm happy with my decision to go with the Duet 5.
I have the original Duet and I use it all the time. My hands are small enough that the keyboard size doesn't bother me. And the speed is fine for most things. Plus, the battery life is amazing. In fact, if I didn't need to use certain Windows programs for work, I could easily make it my daily driver. As it is, I often grab it most of the time. And only grab my ultrabook, when the task requires it. I have even adjusted certain aspects of my workflow so I can use it more. In fact, I watched this video, and am typing this comment on my Duet!
I also own a duet, three things that gets me annoyed is of there only being a single usbc, no microSD, and no way to get a HDD while using it as portable
Nice
@@klos6299 yeah although those compromises are pretty much baked into any device that was 249 at MSRP and has been as low as $99 at Walmart. As far as something being a daily.... I could survive if I were a college student or something with the duet but I really think it makes more sense as a supplemental device. But that's not an option for everybody. People living paycheck to paycheck may not have enough money to have a proper laptop/desktop and a duet.
Can I plug headphones in and at the same time connect to an external monitor through a usb c docking station?
@@barryjb I will adapter with additional ports
Love Chromeunboxed. Still such a shame most Tech UA-camrs are snobby to ChromeOS. They'll review the much more expensive and less capable Tab S8 Ultra then say the Pixel Slate was overpriced 🤷
I want to see a tab s8 ultra running chrome os. Premium tablet running chrome os
Exactly
Bruh the tab s8 ultra runs circles around all of these chromebooks under 400, has a better screen, arguably better software, etc
@@sur_shrimpster It better, since it is close to $1,000
@@sur_shrimpster You don't even need to have the S8 Ultra. Even the 11" Tab S8 is more than enough. And with flagship-grade Samsung device, you have DeX capability to play with.
Great comparison! One thing you failed to mention was if movie consumption is also key then the 5 is the way to go. That nice 13" OLED screen it's just so nice.
Well said. I have a Flex5, which my family loves. I need a tablet more than another laptop, so the Duet 3 makes a bit more since in my case
Will get the Duet 3. Love my Duet OG but the keyboard is only any good for short uses. I wish Lenovo would let you raise the keyboard though. Makes the world of difference.
Great breakdown!
Very useful video. Thanks!
Simply said: Duet5 is a Laptop that can be a Tablet. Duet3 is a Tablet that can be a Laptop.
However, in my opinion, Duet5 should also compete with flexible laptops.
Please buy the duet 3 and make a comparison video on your channel as well. Request from your subscriber. 👍
@@kaberigomes2117 will do :)
Went with the duet 5 because I like the larger size, it also has OLED which looks more vibrant than the IPS display of the Duet 3. Battery on the Duet 5 lasts longer and the quad speakers provide a little bit better sound than the dual speakers on the Duet 3. If larger size is not a concern, I think the Duet 5 is the better option.
I would love to eventually see a foldable Chromebook one day with a keyboard that can attach magnetically to one side of the screen.
Weight is a huge factor, if portability is considered. For instance, I'm using (on your recommendation) the Asus C536E, which is a beast with its i3, 11th gen processor and terrific, Harman/Kardon speakers. However, the thing weighs A LOT, and after lugging it around in a laptop bag on a couple of trips, I dreamed of something lighter. Enter the Duet 3, which looks perfect. Also, I'm keen to use a USI pen, which just doesn't make sense to me for a device that mostly sits in "laptop" mode. I'm going to keep the C536E on my desk, and put that sweet Duet 3 in my laptop bag.
If you use the pen, get a paper like screen protector, thank me later.
Duet 5 battery lasts longer.
Thanks for your review a year ago. I've subsequently recently got both, having waited for a price drop.
I got the Duet 3 and then the Duet 5.
Relative to each other, I liked the Duet 5's better speakers, but liked the Duet 3's portability. I also own a Samsung Chromebook 2. The Duet 5 I returned as the Duet 5 is worse than the Samsung as the Duet 5 screen is about the same as the Samsung but that Duet floppy removable keyboard became annoying, you cannot just lift and move like with a true laptop.
The Duet 3 is a tablet / small laptop, but the Duet 5 is neither good as a tablet (too big) nor as a laptop (too floppy).
So in the end I concluded get a proper laptop for proper laptop contexts, they can fold the keyboard under like my full hinged Samsung Chromebook, and the Duet 3 has a happy mix of tablet or can attach keyboard if you found a long sitdown typing need. In bed I'm using a bluetooth backlit keyboard for Duet 3 so I can see the keys.
As for what Lenovo should do next, it's obvious: improve the CPU, as Duet 3 stutters a bit relative to say a Core I3 Samsung, improve the speakers so it's more of a media consumption, say just having it in kitchen while cooking it's too feeble a sound, and a backlight keyboard. I'd add a microSD slot too for moving with a lot of offline media files.
Thank you love your vids
I briefly considered the Duet 3 against the Duet 5, but quickly decided to go with the larger sibling. It was mainly because I already have a Lenovo M9 tablet, which I use daily as my go-to handheld device for gaming, news/book reading, etc. The 11-inch form factor of the Duet 3 would have been a bit too big as a handheld device for me, too.
I am not looking for one yet, but if I was I would choose the Duel 5. I like the larger display.
i bought a broken first gen duet, and is soo nice, love the keyboard, love the screen, love the size and i love the battery life
i also own a 6th gen intel laptop with an hdd and i honestly prefer much more to use the duet for on the go laptop needs
my only grime is that the touchscreen doesnt work... opened it right up and the circuits are not damaged at all, not a crack on the screen either, not a clue what could be wrong with it
at least it works as a laptop
but honestly this device made me apreciate these types of chromblets, im aiming to buy an HP x2 11 or a duet 3 eventually to replace this since both comes with far better SoC
I got the original; Duet in early 2021 because I do a lot of Twitch and UA-cam where I have to moderate, and thought just clicking the icons would be good enough, but I've come to realize that the speed and RAM aren't good enough to run Twitch consistently... some days it runs perfect and others it struggles to keep up. And that's with running Twitch in the browser because the app isn't good for what I need it for. I'm planning on upgrading to the Duet 5 not only for more screen real estate, but the upgraded RAM to go with it that hopefully lets things run more smoothly.
I've been using a Chromebook detachable as my daily driver for a couple of years now, and I use a full-size Bluetooth keyboard, so my device is always in its slate form factor. It's really nice to always be able to just grab it and go without having to detach the keyboard when I want to go sit on the couch or run off to a meeting. Can't wait for the sweet spot the Duet 3 11" is gonna bring size-wise!
I bought the Duet 5 to replace my HP Spectre X360 and an old iPad.
I used the HP to work on it and while it is a convertible I wanted to play Android games with Bluestacks. Finally, never really used it that way, too complicated, not smooth,... so I used it only to work with, and only when I was outside (so not so often) because I got a desktop computer.
I use the Duet 5 far more often than I used my HP and my old iPad. Everyday I play Android games on it, without keyboard, and when I want to work or browse the web I snap the keyboard and there we go.
I'm almost in love with ChromeOS. This + Android apps + Linux apps... I'ts a fantastic product.
Windows 11 with Android app support will be even better for your work need.
Can you confirm if Chromeboos usi pen have pressure sensitivity? Cause someone online said, they don't.
Can we play 4k media on duet 5 from storage or from external source?
i got the Duet 5, originally was planning on getting the pixelbook go but decided on this instead and i dont regret it at all !!
Hows the battery life
Unless you are using it as a slate, I'd have though the PbG would have been the obvious choice
Yes, that is my conclusion as well; The best tablets are 8-11 inches. Hybrids are 13 inches where you can use as either a tablet or laptop but the latter should be your main user-case. Whilst 15-inch like the Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra are purely in the laptop realm and lose most of the reasons why you buy a tablet for media consumption. That is where I start with what I should buy and then decide the OS and then the price.
>Whilst 15-inch like the Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra are purely in the laptop realm and lose most of the reasons why you buy a tablet for media consumption. That is where I start with
Hm - interesting. For me it is just vice verse: I prefer big tablets for media consumption, especially for videos. I LOVE big screens and the 13.3 inch screen with the 16.9 acpect ratio of Lenovos Duet 5 is quite overwhelming. I love to watch videos on a long flight (watching on an OLED display is superior to any screen of the airlines), i love to see Eurosports on that tablet etc. pp. - actually i only bought it for watching media contents and i love it. As i dont need the keyboard, any laptop with a comparable screen is still way heavier. Actually, i would go for the Samsung Tab S8 Ultra, but i got the Lenovo Duet 5 for 465,-€(!) whereas the Samsung starts at 1.200,-€, quite a difference. Size matters for media consumption as well.
I've had my original Duet for over two years now. Picked it up not long after it came out for $260 at Walmart. I bought it to replace my company ipad that I had to turn in when I retired. It is a very sutable replacement. Yeah, it's not nearly as snappy as a the ipad, and I ocassionaly have to reboot it to fix some minor glitch, but for the money, you can't beat this thing. Very satisfied. The Duet 5 looks awesome too, but I don't know that I can justify getting a 13 inch device when I have a 14 inch Lenovo laptop running Windows 11 that gives me the extra horsepower and screen size I need for doing the more demanding stuff. But, my Duet is still my go to travel device when I don't need the full featured experience.
I find the duet can freak out if you havnt rrestartedd in awhile. I would recommend signing out once a day. I do that and performance is way better
I went through this with the 2018 12.4 inch HP X2. I thought I could use it as a tablet, but it was too big (and big bezels). Great Chromebook, though. Someone will come out with the right size (11 + 13.3)/2 = 12.15"
Thanks for your comparison, but will there still be a video of the detailed review of the Duet 3?
still using my original duet and it is going strong. but if there is only 3 duets right now, what is the meaning behind the naming of them?
The big question is.. will there be a Duet 4, which will be just between both display sizes?
Im traveling now with my 15.6in Lenovo C340 i3 and as much as I like it, I need a smaller 10 or 11 inch chromebook tablet for travel and field work. Looking forward to more videos on the Duet 3
Uh both please! I just got the 5 and it's nice!!
Can you show me some productivity scenarios with them? I would like to see a video on how do you use chrome OS devices. Thanks
Can you please explain to me why there aren't any higher end tablets running Chrome OS? Like with Samsung Galaxy S8 hardware but running Chrome OS. I have the Duet 5 now and it's pretty good, but still could do with a higher resolution screen and a faster processor.
Please do a comparison video on Duet 3 vs HP's X2 11.
Is the screen on the Duet 3 clearer than on the Duet 5? Text on the Duet 5 is horribly out of focus / fuzzy at all resolutions. I also use a Surface Pro 8, and a Samsung Galaxy Tab S7+, and coming from those devices the screen on the Duet 5 hurts my eyes as it seems Chrome OS isn't optimised for this screen size/resolution combo. Anyone else have this trouble?
Every video you put out is 💰!!!
Hey is there a screen protector that you can recommend for the duet 5?? I'm searching for one would appreciate if you could help
I bought the latest penoval usi pen and the eraser doesn't work. I have an Acer Spin 713, the first edition. Why is this? Is my pen not working? Is my Chromebook not compatible?
Does the Duet 5 allow a secondary 27 or 32 inc monitor as extended display?
Do you know how to set up Andriod phone as a webcam in your chomebook ?
O gosh what have you done?🤣 I can't wait to see Duet 3 when it comes out in May. Tiring of waiting for May I just bought an iPad Mini 6 for reading and social media things (its size and weight is perfect that). But I want something that let me do some productivity works when I'm in libraries or cafes. Therefore I'm eagerly waiting for the Duet 3, which is still small and light enough, but much more convenient for typing on than the iPad Mini.
Isn't the iPad mini 6 capable of doing productive work?
I have the OG Duet and the iPad Mini 6. I hate iOS, but I also hate big tablets. I think the iPad is the right size and it has much better performanc, but the Duet is just has a much better OS.
@@soumojitmondal8347 No. The keyboard for iPad Mini is too small for comfortable typing. Keyboard of the 11" tablet is the best compromise.
Great video 😊 Would my wireless logitech mouse work via the usb dongle (using a usb A to C adaptor), and can it work reliabily via Bluetooth 😊
How about the Lenovo Chromebook duet 3 performance when using Microsoft office?
There is a camera bug with the Chromebook Duet 5 recently and it seems to be VERY wide spread, also affecting other chromebooks as well. Looks like the recent update bricked everyone's camera. There a clicking sound that is audible when you try to launch the camera app, and no other app, like Zoom, Google Meet or Duo can access the camera.
Yes, when I got my HP X2 I had the same issue including stylus input problems. But after a few updates (same day) everything was functional again.
When is it going to be released inn India????
Now the video that audience would like to see is, Duet 3 vs original Duet. It will have smashing views. 👍
Wish they would make an arm Chromebook like the surface book the size of the duet 3
Watching this on my Duet 3.
Unfortunatly, I still have to wait till mai until I can upgrade from my duet 2 to the duet 3 since its not out yet in germany 😭
is theduet 3 much faster then the original duet ? I'm struggling with the original , it's soooooo slow
Would both of these meet the new Plus standard? Thanks
For me the best would be a merge between the 2: 12 inch tablet, with optimized bezels, oled screen, not quite sure about aspect ratio, but problably 16 : 10 would be better for productivity reasons. What I would have preferred is a better sound quality. But in the end I think Lenovo will decide for me: because right now none of the 2 are available in Italy, I will buy the first one who arrives on the market
Let’s hope for a Duet 4 to release!! I’m absolutely with you
I have a 12 inch Lenovo Android tablet. It's my primary computing device. I often wish it ran Chrome OS instead though. Android works best with the apps full screen. My tablet's Android build has "productivity mode" which allows windowing, but it's very flaky. Many apps get unstable with it, and even the ones that are stable will go to a phone mode where the UI is simpler.
So, I'm very interested in a 11-13 inch Chrome based Lenovo tablet. Though I hate buying things I already have, so I will probably wait until my current tablet starts to feel old.
I love my samsung tab s8 plus tablet. I got used to the size and am actually really happy with it
You did not discuss performance between the two. Please do a follow up?
I believe they both have the same CPU, RAM, and storage.
It's an easy Duet 5 for me. The Duet 3 may be smaller, but OLED screen panel and 2K screen resolution means more battery drain, not forgetting the shorter 5:3 aspect ratio.. The Duet 5 has a more standard 16:9 screen, which is great for video consumption, and an IPS LCD screen alongside a much bigger battery.
I think you got the screen type mixed up. The duet 5 has OLED, the duet 3 has IPS.
Anyone know the battery life on both these tablets?
Can you compare the Duet 3 to the original Duet, would like to see how much of an improvement it is.
I second this.
They never reply
@@cobaltblue5523 yeah I don't think they read the comments. Don't blame them. UA-cam comments can be a pretty toxic place for creators. If they have other social media you might be able to get in touch with them that way.
@@michaelcorcoran8768 thats understandable, but that's why I leave comments to the general public for asking questions
I purchased the original Duet 3 about two months ago when Bestbuy had it on sale for $149.00. It's been great for use as a tablet for casual web surfing and videos. Have had no issues with lag or slow screens. For this kind of use the original is fine if you can get a deal like I did.
They did a review on the new version have you seen it?
I am on the fence between the new Duet 3 (with the more ram) and the 9th Gen iPad with a keyboard. They would most likely be around the same price, with the iPad being cheaper most likely around $460 with a keyboard. The Duet 3 starts at $399 without the ram upgrade. I care more about longevity than weight since this would just be recreational for me.
I have too many gadgets. I have the original duet, which was a fine form factor, but too underpowered for me. I've also purchased the duet 5, which is fine but a little cumbersome as a tablet. I also have way too many other toys, but the one I grab the most is the iPad. Now, I mostly consume on it, with occasional communications like mail/teams. However, there are plenty of articles and videos of people using their ipads for work, so I know it can be done. I really think IOS is the better tablet OS (designed for being controlled with your fingers). And the apps for IOS are better than android, at least on tablets.
My general advice for people looking for a tablet is iPad. I do hope that chromeos starts to give apple a run for thier money at some point.
Can someone suggest a good stylus for the Chromebook 5 preferably from Lenovo itself
2 Questions: 1 ) What chrome book do not run fans, are quiet? And, 2 ) Do any chrome book have the ability to turn off screen for all night sleep music video?
Really good. Battery Life is awesome : 19 hours. The screen is really good. If Lenovo can upgrade this duet 5’s model, I recommand a better sound and Aldo a better connection between the screen and the keyboard. To easy to separate, I’ll prefer a button to separate like Microsoft surfacebook.
I would love to see Duet 5 with Snapdragon 7c+ Gen 3 or 8cx Gen 3, but that depends on Google approving either chipset. The Duet 5 screen is pretty much perfect for me. Never care much about OLED tbh.
As many Android and iPad tablets have been used as a head unit in auto installs, would this fit that application or is the OS just not friendly enough?
If you want a "Tablet PC", go for W11, iPad or Galaxy Tab. ChromeOS is really not polished enough and lacks many crucial features of a tablet OS. It's more geared for Ultrabooks.
Are we still getting a separate review of the Duet 3? I'm really considering replacing my 10 inch Duet with it this year. Don't think I'd need the bigger size because in November I replaced my Spin 13 with a surface pro 7. So this would be my tablet for recreation mostly, as opposed to a work computer. Just don't know if it's worth the money to get a new one yet.
When the Duet 3 officially releases in May 2022 then we'll have reviews.
You should do these vs HP X2 11
When using in tablet mode do either of these have a fingerprint sensor? Logging in in tablet mode by typing on a virtual keyboard seems like it would be clunky.
No fingerprint sensors on either Duet. I have the HP x2, which does have a sensor. It works fine, but can be finicky. It is nice to have, but if you are rebooting the device you will still need to type in a PIN.
Does anyone experience low volume on the Chromebook?
Conveniently forgot to mention that the sponsor's pen doesn't work with the Duet 3 Chromebook featured in this video...
These are exciting times in the ChromeOS hardware space

Does anyone else with a duet 5 have the issue where, when the keyboard is attached, the screen will randomly turn off? Sound keeps playing and everything stays up. It's like the duet 5 is detecting that the cover is closed when it isn't.
Return it and get another
Sounds like the odd lemon. A agree w/ the other responder - warranty/replace that unit.
I wann humbly request to Lenovo company plz, make this product available in India.
We are desperately in need of this kind of device.
Does the Penoval USI Pen works with all the Chromebook Duet (Duet, Duet 3 & 5)?
my understanding from reading reviews is yes
Love Chromebooks! great value for the money!
Dude, what's the specs???
Hey, i have a Lenovo P11 Pro that runs A11. The software experience with the type cover in Productivity Mode is absolutely terrible. Too many bugs and very slow.
I'd like to know if there's any way I could flash Chrome OS on one of these. I know chromeOS is closed source but I'm desperate for anything other than this software atm.
Thanks
Great question. If I were you I'd want to do the same. But I think you may be best served to use _Craigslist_ or _Swappa_ or etc. to sell & then upgrade.
@@malcontent_1 That would be my last resort. If I don't figure out something in the coming weeks, il probably get an iPad Air or something else.
@@adriensamuelraj1152 Well, good luck to you. Personally I _cannot stand_ the Apple ecosystem and it's walked garden, so I'm sticking with ChromeOS & Android devices. I wish you smooth sailing.
@@malcontent_1 well I already have an iPhone and a Mac. After watching several people complain about how limiting iPadOS is, i picked up an android tablet since it's the only thing I can carry outside (Mac is a desktop) so I need it to be capable.
I got the Lenovo because the specs were decent but the software is very bad. I'd rather have slightly limiting software than really buggy and 0 software support. Let's see how it goes.
@@adriensamuelraj1152 I certainly would not run my business as effectively as I do on my Chromebook, on my Android tablet (I have both). Chrome OS devices run the full-fledged version of the Chrome browser which allows all available extensions and related apps to be used far more effectively than on Android. Also ChromeOS devices are updated every 4 weeks!
Unfortunately the advice you got sent you one level two low in the Google OS pecking order considering what you are after. Chrome and Android are night and day different, with different use cases and user focus. [My 2¢]
May? May! Lenovo speed it up and take my money!
chrome os 100 whats new?
Im still using Duet 2 and saw duet 3 and 5 and that not impress me at all. I dont see BIG perfomance kick in duet 3 and duet 5 with my duet 2.
I need similar to duet 2 10 or max 12 inch but 16:9 not 16:10 aspect ratio min 5 times faster CPU/GPU min 8GB to 16 GB < (linux os), min 126GB or bigger sdd and option for micro SD, much better speaker, Oled screen, Usb c with tv/monitor output.
for new user duet 3 and 5 ok but for owner of duet 2, Im not recommend change for new model for now.
2:37 I guess the pen doesn't work that well with these devices since you choose not to demo it.
i still haven't found a use for the duet. acer spin 311 beats it in all regards
Got the Duet 5, using it with keyboard when I want to work or browsing the net, and most of the time without keyboard to play with Android games. Best Chromebook IMO.
with keyboard i find it awkward to position the monitor. it falls down if it's not on an even surface - but with a small chromebook i'll often be in my bed or on the sofa, not at a desk. spin311 does keyboard mode better and tablet mode equally well

OK, call me thick (lol), but, Having had many years in the PC world (Win 95.98/XP/7), and years of use with Android (I will never get into the Apple world because of various reasons) with phones and tablets. I am aware of Chrome books, but... What are the pros/cons of Chromebooks verses standard Android OS tablets? Anyone can recommend videos/channels giving best answer to these questions? 🤔😏 😎🇬🇧
I can take a stab at this question. According to Alexander Kuscher (Senior Director of product management at Google), Android is intended for "Productive Mobility" (content consumption is the top priority), whereas ChromeOS is intended for "Mobile Productivity" (active work is the top priority). So if you're using the tablet mostly for media consumption, and there's an app for everything you need, then Android should make the most sense. If you're browsing or actively interacting with the web, ChromeOS will probably make the most sense.
If we're directly comparing Android/ChromeOS Tablets, ChromeOS has three major "advantages" in my opinion: 1) You get a full desktop web browser that supports extensions. 2) ChromeOS devices aren't reliant on the manufacturer to push updates. If you buy a ChromeOS tablet, it will get security and feature updates up until the AUE date. If you buy an Android tablet, you'll be lucky to get updates for more than one year, and they might come months after Google releases the updates. 3) This one doesn't really apply to personal users, but it's much easier to Administer ChromeOS devices. You join them to Gsuite and they're encrypted and secured out of the box. You can set them up as guest/multi-user devices very easily. So they're just flat out better for businesses/schools.
Question: can you play Roblox on these? Can you run a 2nd monitor AND play Roblox on these?
Here in 2020?
can i have something free like a mouse pad
eMMC + 4GB RAM + slower processor, Chromebook just refuses to get a better hardware. I finally give up chromebook and will buy an iPad now. I like chromebook, but the hardware is terrible.
Bigger is better.
neither since it takes forever to order from lenovo right now..........dont waste your time .........clearly these guys are getting money from lenovo since they are not telling the whole truth about delays.
1:41 here in 2020? Are you time traveling on us? 🤨
I fought the urge to comment on that
If I wanted a larger Hybrid Chronebook I'd get the HP X2 11, despite the older SOC. 16:9 is a terrible aspect ratio for a tablet. It kills the Duet 5.
That's your opinion, and it's meant to be more like a laptop-tablet than a tablet alone
