Why choose between a laptop and a tablet when you can get the best of both worlds? The versatile Lenovo Duet is our favorite two-in-one Chromebook on the market, and you can grab one at an amazing price during Best Buy’s Fourth of July sale.
The tech retailer has reduced this basic model with 4GB of RAM and 128GB of storage to just $279, a $120 savings compared to the usual price. If you want some more advanced hardware, Lenovo also has a configuration with 8GB of RAM on sale for $350, which is a $50 discount.
This 11-inch tablet has a 2K LCD touchscreen display, as well as a detachable magnetic keyboard, so it also doubles as a laptop. It’s a Chromebook, so the hardware is pretty basic and designed primarily for web-based basics like checking emails and scrolling social media. However, it still has a 5MP front camera and an 8MP rear camera for video calls. It is highly portable, though, weighing just 510g and measuring 7.6mm thick for easy transport just about anywhere. We wouldn’t recommend it as your primary laptop but if you’re looking for a sleek and lightweight travel companion, it’s a solid bargain.
