Lenovo first announced the IdeaPad Duet and IdeaPad Flex 5 Chromebooks at CES 2020 in January. Since then, there has been no word about the products. A couple of days back Best Buy listed the Lenovo IdeaPad Duet Chromebook for pre-order. The listing is for the 128GB version and it comes in at $299. Now, this price is pretty unrealistic, considering that the Chromebook  64GB version is priced at $279. Lenovo IdeaPad Duet Chromebook

Already, some intending buyers have successfully placed orders for the Duet and it is billed to ship on May 11. Best Buy had removed the pre-order button and replace it with “Coming soon”. The pre-order is back on but the expected shipping date has been moved to May 20. The product page shows that the IdeaPad Duet will go on sale on May 6 but Lenovo is yet to officially confirm the release date.

The Lenovo IdeaPad Duet is a detachable Chromebook that comes with a keyboard base in the box. The 10.1-inch tablet has an FHD display, a single USB-C port, and runs on top of Google’s Chrome OS with “up to” eight years of updates.Lenovo IdeaPad Duet Chromebook

The device is powered by a MediaTek Helio P60T processor along with 4 GB of RAM, 64GB storage and 128 GB of storage on the top-tier model. There’s also a 7,180 mAh battery within, an 8 MP camera on the back, and a 2 MP camera on the front.
