Lenovo’s brand-new Chromebook Duet 11 tablet with keyboard sees first discount at $279 ($100 off)

We just spotted a deal that drops Lenovo’s Chromebook Duet 11 tablet with keyboard down to $279 shipped. This is a brand-new model that debuted earlier this month carrying a $379 price tag and MediaTek’s Kompanio chip. Today’s $100 discount lands as the first deal we’ve tracked for this machine which is less than a month old. The variant discounted at Best Buy today sports a 10.95-inch 2K touchscreen panel and you can learn more about it below.

For $279 today, you’re looking at a Chromebook that’s powered by the MediaTek Kompanio 838 processor, which is plenty capable of handling ChromeOS without any issues, while also letting you get a taste of all the AI features and run all your favorite Android apps. The 4GB memory, as mentioned in our hands-on review, however, may not be the best option for you, especially if you’re a power user, but casual users who want to get a feel for the form factor and have light usage can snag it at a really good price today. Lenovo also sells an 8GB model of this machine that should be ideal for most users, so be sure to consider that. Some noteworthy features of the Chromebook Duet 11 include a 10.5-inch 2K touchscreen panel, a bundled keyboard with a trackpad, a 5MP front and an 8MP rear camera, and more.

If you are looking for alternatives today, then Amazon’s Fire HD 10 tablet is down at $75 right now. It’s the latest model that comes with a 10.1-inch display and an octa-core processor, and it is down from its usual price of $140 today.
