The Duet 5 is the perfect 2 in 1 follow up to the older sibling, the OG and smaller Duet.
Build quality – Overall is mid to high end all around and very solid.
Keyboard:
Strikes the perfect balance between light for mobile use but also rock solid sturdy with good key travel. Not backlit. I also own the HP X2 11 but I dislike the keyboard on that 2 in 1. It feels like a flimsy cardboard compared to the nice solid keyboard on this Duet 5. Unlike its smaller sibling or the HP X2 11, this keyboard finally has a magnet, so the keyboard does not shift around once closed. Great improvement here.
Back cover:
The material has a very similar high end gray fabric feel to the OG Duet, which is very nice. The kickstand hinge is solid but also easy enough to open/close with one hand, which is great. Both the OG Duet and even worse, the HP X2 11 kickstand hinge is unnecessarily tight.
Performance
Much improved speed of use compared to the OG Duet, but obviously not nearly as snappy as a 11th-gen Intel Tiger Lake i3 like on my Flex 5i. The Snapdragon 7c Gen 2 is also a slight improvement to the first Gen, which is on the HP X2 11. Definitely a noticeable speed difference between those generations in every day use, but unless you are comparing side by side, you really won’t notice or care. Overall, I’m perfectly happy with the start up and every day use performance.
Battery Life:
Very very good battery life. I never tested to depletion, but I would use it all day, light to medium use for work and entertainment (emails, browsing, document editing, YouTube, Netflix, etc.), and would have plenty left in the tank. My guess is that with light to medium use like me, it would last a good 10-15 hrs, lower end of that for heavy video watching.
Screen:
Last and the ‘best’ part, the screen quality. Wow! This OLED screen is insanely beautiful. The colors pop and the brightness is more than what you will need, even for the outside. I’ve got the Lenovo Flex 5i which is a similar 13.3″ screen, and this 13.3″ OLED screen blows that out of the water.
Overall :
Very happy with the purchase and performance. Similar thoughts to the HP X2 11, which is that I would avoid paying full price. I’m a Chromebook junkie so I paid full price. 🙂 Be smart and just wait a couple of months if you can, and the price will go down a good $100-$150 for sure. At $350-$400, it is without a doubt, a DEIFNITE buy!

I was on the phone all day about the so-called accessories for this tablet. Lenovo has not yet manufactured the “cover” that attaches to the back of the kickstand. Seems like a rush job to get it in stores so they can make money.
And I don’t think that the USI pen that Lenovo sells will fit in that so-called cover, so I’m on the fence about returning this item.
If this is the case and you can’t get the accessories, I might as well purchase the Samsung Galaxy Tab S7+

First, the good: battery life is excellent. OLED screen looks very vibrant, colors are vivid.
And the bad: the 16:9 aspect ratio makes it impossible to use the Chromebook in portrait orientation. They should’ve cut 2 inches off the side and made it 3:2. If you do try to use as a tablet for reading, the 1080p screen makes text look very grainy at arm length distance. Performance was mediocre at best. Chrome was very slow to respond to scrolling action within webpages, which is pretty worrisome for a ChromeOS device.
But worst of all, the keyboard cover doesn’t fit. There’s a flap that connects the cover to the magnetic strip which attaches to the tablet. The flap is too small/stiff. It doesn’t allow the cover to sit on the tablet’s screen completely. It pulls it toward the hinge and exposes about 1/4″ of the screen’s glass. Seems like something that should’ve been caught and easily fixed with a design change during development of this Chromebook.

Had the Duet 10.1 and loved it on my treadmill to watch trail videos while walking/running. Upgraded to the Duet 5 and could not be more happy ! Put this on my treadmill (didn’t even take the keyboard out of the box) and WOW what a difference it makes ! I’ll keep the 10.1 for couch surfing !
