Lenovo 10E CHROMEBOOK Tablet, MTK MEDIATEK MT8183 Processor (2.00GHZ, 1MB), 10.1 (Renewed)

I have this Lenovo 10e Chrome tablet, and I also have the Duet. I think I like the 10e better, as a tablet. The Duet, of course, comes with a detachable keyboard (I'm typing on it now), but in terms a sturdy well-balanced tablet experience the 10e wins in my mind.The sound is enough to hear videos, like YouTube or the news, etc. I don't really watch movies ever on a tablet.The screen is vivid and bright on both the 10e and the Duet. It's amazing what Lenovo packed into these things.The processor, as you've probably heard, is on the under-powered side. This will lap a Fire tablet for sure, but it's nowhere near the performance level of an HP X2 or a Pixel Slate, etc. I use 2-3 tabs and a time, and the machine handles it fairly well. The screen responsiveness is better on the 10e than the Duet, which is occasionally laggy in registering touches on the outside left edge.The power button has a dedicated light, separate from the charging light (the Duet only has the latter and it's VERY dim).This thing does have pogo pins, and I've heard there's a keyboard out there somewhere, but I've never seen one I could purchase.

Worst purchase ever !!I normal buy the El cheapo no name tablets because they are expendable. Where I work of they break, I'm only out a little money. I saw the Lenovo chrome book on sale and thought "her, I'll buy a GOOD tablet for once. Well, don't WASTE your money. The one I got is slower than frozen molasses, and it locks up more that it operates. Complete and total waste of money. I'd been better off buying the no name brand and so would you.

Bought one of these (direct from Lenovo) along with the external keyboard case. And while there's A LOT to like about it, it's just too slow and too limited-- I think by the amount of RAM-- to really do everyday service. If you have more than 4-5 browser tabs open it starts to slow down and become unstable. Freeze for 10-15 seconds, then resume operations.Likewise, if you have more than 2-3 Android apps open (esp. the media apps like Prime Video, Netflix etc.) it becomes very slow and freezes intermittently. Zoom with video is basically unusable -- it constantly reports "unstable network connection" if anyone is on video. (Connection is fine, it's just the CPU can't keep up with rendering Zoom.)Even minimizing apps becomes hard -- the unit is unresponsive.To give you a sense of how much I like it, I'm very likely to buy whatever new model replaces it from Lenovo -- it's really comfy to use, display's easy to look at, the external keyboard add-on case is reasonably convenient to type on, it would be an excellent replacement for carrying a full size laptop most days, I can even do my job on it (I'm in tech). It can drive an external monitor and keyboard so it can actually mostly take the place of a laptop at home, except that the external display is only 1400x900.I like it a lot. For very light web surfing and media consumption it's great. I will see whether I am just running the wrong browser extensions (it picks up the same ones from my desktop Chrome account, maybe that's too much). But it gets too unstable too quickly under real load. Maybe ChromeOS was less resource intensive when this model came out than it is now, or maybe they didn't plan on heavy Android app usage.I'd happily pay $300 for a similar machine that was faster and more stable.
