Lenovo's keyboard has a built-in trackpad, but Apple's does not. Winner: iPad Are the detachable keyboards any good? The relatively old A10 Fusion chip inside the basic iPad means it won't be on par with the newer iPad Pro, but the general smoothness that you get with any modern Apple product puts the iPad over the top in this category. It's just hard to compete with Apple when it comes to performance.
Open too many tabs and it'll probably slow down a bit. You can absolutely use it for daily web browsing or school tasks without encountering huge problems, but it never quite feels buttery smooth. Unfortunately, moment-to-moment performance is one area where Lenovo's enticingly low price rears its head.Īs I mentioned in my review, the Duet always feels like it's hovering at or slightly below the speed limit without ever kicking things into high gear. The Chromebook Duet is a largely excellent little device, with a battery promising 10 hours of use that should get you through a whole work or school day before it needs to be charged again. It's not always the speediest machine, but the Chromebook Duet can keep up. Winner: iPad Related Video: Apple has a lot of new products, so we ranked them It's (slightly) bigger, sharper, and brighter. Its 10.2-inch display is bolstered by a superior 2160 x 1620 resolution and 500 nits of brightness. Unfortunately for Lenovo, Apple has it beat with the pricier iPad. Those are pretty decent screen specs for a sub-$300 device.
If you didn't know that before, you learned something new today. ("Nits," by the way, is the unit of measurement for brightness. Lenovo's tablet (opens in a new tab) has a marginally smaller display than the iPad at 10.1 inches, with a 1900 x 1200 resolution and 400 nits of brightness to keep things looking relatively sharp and readable. In this regard, the Chromebook Duet and iPad are fairly similar, but one just barely takes the top prize. After all, why get a tablet if not to take advantage of its bigger screen compared to a phone? Whether your dorm roommates are hogging the TV or you just don't feel like getting out of bed, it's reasonable to assume that you'll eventually use either the Chromebook Duet or the iPad to watch movies or TV.
The Chromebook Duet's display easily detaches from its keyboard.
