Lenovo m10 plus (3rd gen) vs Duet (gen1) opinons

Locked

Tags: Tablets

Looking to get a new tablet mostly for streaming and maybe some simple web browsing, essentially something I can just carry around the apartment and watch youtube on. Saw that the Lenovo m10 (3rd gen) and the Duet were both on sale for $150. I’m leaning towards the Duet since it’s marginally smaller and I like and that Duet runs ChromeOS vs Android, despite it being 2 yrs older. Wondering if anyone has any strong opinions either way or if I’m missing anything.

Thanks,

I suggest that you check the user reviews for both tablets first. Personally, for recreational streaming and browsing that both Chrome or Android OS are more than qualified. Since both tablets are the same price, it’s a flip of the coin if both are rated well.

I use a Samsung Galaxy S7+ tab that uses Android and I love the OS personally as it is almost identical to what I use on my Galaxy S21 phone.

Don’t know anything about the Duet, but I recently purchased the Lenovo Tab M10 Plus (3rd Gen), and it does everything I want it to do so far. Of course, I got it mainly for reading digital books; so I haven’t done much of anything else with it. In fact, as I set it up, I uninstalled or disabled a lot of the preinstalled apps because I wouldn’t use them. So, depending upon what you want to use it for, your mileage will probably vary a lot.

Both the Lenovo M10 (3rd Gen) and the Duet are great options for streaming and simple web browsing, but there are some differences between the two that you may want to consider before making a purchase.

The Lenovo Duet is a 2-in-1 device that runs ChromeOS and comes with a detachable keyboard, making it more versatile for productivity tasks. It also has a slightly smaller screen size (10.1 inches) compared to the Lenovo M10 (3rd Gen) (10.3 inches), which may make it more portable and easier to carry around.

On the other hand, the Lenovo M10 (3rd Gen) runs on Android 11, which may offer more app compatibility and customization options. It also has a slightly larger screen, which may be better for watching videos and browsing the web.

Ultimately, the choice between the two tablets comes down to your personal preferences and needs. If you prioritize portability and productivity, the Lenovo Duet may be a better option. If you prefer a larger screen and more app compatibility, the Lenovo M10 (3rd Gen) may be the way to go.
