It’s entirely possible that my issues are resolved whenever the 8GB/128GB variant hits store shelves, hopefully, in the near future.ĭetachable water-resistant Keyboard / Detachable magnetic kickstand / Supports USI 2.0 Stylus Pen Something else to keep in mind here too is that the unit we’re reviewing includes just 4GB of RAM and 64GB of eMMC storage. It wasn’t until I started to try and push the limits, that I saw the Snapdragon 7c Gen 2 started to really struggle. For the most part, switching between apps, responding to messages, or just hanging out resulted in an enjoyable experience. We all know that these numbers don’t really reflect how well a device performs on a daily basis, but it does help to give us somewhat of a baseline. To try and get a better sense of how the Duet 3 stacks up, here are some benchmarking numbers for you: And once I reached about 4 or 5 tabs open, along with an Obsidian window, the Duet 3 just had to stop and think for a bit. On a couple of occasions, I had the Duet 3 plugged into a 27-inch QHD monitor while using the keyboard that was attached to the tablet itself. Those who might be asking, yes, you can use the Duet 3 with an external display, but be careful that you don't have too many apps or tabs open. It's not that the Duet 3 is bad, or can't handle tasks, but I was forced to change the way I work with Lenovo's latest offering.

It's also the same chipset found in the likes of Samsung's Galaxy Book Go, along with a few other lightweight and portable devices.Īnd to be quite honest, I came away with just a 'meh' feeling.

But how well does it actually perform? For us, this is a big question mark, as the Snapdragon 7c Gen 2 takes over for the MediaTek chipset found in the original Duet. Lenovo definitely nailed it when it comes to the design, look, and feel of the Chromebook Duet 3. (Image credit: Andrew Myrick / Android Central)
