Besides the IdeaPad Duet 5 and the 11-inch HP Chromebook x2-which is priced $100 higher but has been widely discounted-we've also seen the 10.5-inch Asus Chromebook Detachable CM3. Most Windows 2-in-1 laptops are convertibles with keyboards that flip and fold out of the way for use in tablet mode, but among Chromebooks there seems to be a trend for detachables that can jettison their keyboards. It earns an Editors' Choice award as a premium Chromebook detachable.

You can find faster and cheaper conventional Chromebooks, but the new Duet outshines the recently reviewed HP Chromebook x2 if you'd like a tablet that doubles as a laptop. The Lenovo Chromebook Duet? Isn't that the 10.1-inch tablet with keyboard and kickstand we praised in May 2020 and have been touting ever since as a super value? Well, yes, and that cute detachable Chromebook is still a bargain, but the Lenovo IdeaPad Duet 5 Chromebook (starts at A$499 on Amazon AU) is something else altogether-a larger 2-in-1 tablet with an ultra-colorful, ultra-high-contrast, 13.3-inch OLED touch screen.
