You can get the Lenovo IdeaPad Duet 3i with an Intel Celeron N4020 dual-core processor or with an Intel Pentium N5030 quad-core chip. Read: The Best Tablets With Keyboards: A Comparison Hardware & Performance If you don’t have much room on a train or plane, you can put the tablet on the table and use the keyboard with a touchpad on your lap. That means you can use it even when the keyboard is separated from the tablet. Lenovo built-in a small battery and Bluetooth. But it has a trick that only the bigger Lenovo Yoga Duet 7i supports otherwise. Sadly, you can’t use it at an angle like you can with the Surface Go 2. The cover is connected using a magnetic connector and folded up, it protects the screen. And at home, it makes sense to use a bigger keyboard. You’ll need a bit of time to get used to it. I was able to type with the keyboard comfortably very fast – but I’m used to tablets. The keys have a proper travel and while the touchpad is small, it works fine. It’s similar in size to other official keyboards for 10-inch tablets. That’s why usually, it’s at least 100 Dollars cheaper than the Surface Go 2 with a keyboard.ĭue to the 10.3-inch screen, the keyboard is smaller than of a bigger laptop. Keyboard CoverĪ major highlight of the Lenovo IdeaPad Duet 3i is its keyboard cover that is included.

Photo and video quality are pretty weak, similar to an average laptop. While we get a 5-megapixel main camera on the back, the webcam has a 2-megapixel resolution. Facial recognition is not supported and there’s no fingerprint scanner either.

There’s no USB Type-A port but we do get a microSD card slot and a headphone jack.

You can also connect an external monitor and one of them can be used to charge other devices like your phone. I like that we get two USB C 3.2 Gen 2 ports on its side which are used to charge it. Sure, with 890g it’s heavier than every Android tablet of this size, but for a Windows device, that’s normal. A kickstand is built into the back which is made of metal and can be opened very wide. Even though it has a plastic body, it’s premium-feeling. That’s because it resembles the Surface Go 2. This is where the Lenovo IdeaPad Duet 3i shines because the design is fantastic. I’m starting this review with the design and built quality.
