That base iPad? Just a scant 32 GB of local storage and if you want to step it up, you’re looking at a $100 premium. On paper, the Duet comes out ahead in some cases while the iPad tops it in others.įor starters, the Duet has 64 or 128 GB of storage, as I previously noted. So the prices are very comparable, as are some of the other hardware features. (ProTip #2: Although you’re supposed to be a student or the parent of a student to buy devices through the Apple Education store, anyone can actually use it.)
And the current base model iPad is $329, although if you purchase it through Apple’s Education store, it’s $309. (ProTip: If you do buy the Duet, it’s well worth the extra $20 to go from 64 to 128 GB of storage).
I think it’s a valid question as the Lenovo Duet Chromebook costs $279 or $299, depending on the internal storage capacity you choose. Why would someone choose this over the similarly priced iPad, or vice versa? Costs are comparable but you get more storage for less with the Duet And that thought hit me as I was packing up the Lenovo Duet Chromebook, now that my review of this 10.1-inch Chrome OS tablet is done. This approach gives me perspective on the pros and cons of the entire space. And one of my current favorite devices is my iPad Pro 11-inch tablet. I also use multiple Chromebooks now but also have an Ubuntu laptop with both Windows 10 and macOS available through virtual machines. I’ve owned or used multiple phones from various brands and platforms ranging from Windows Mobile to Palm OS, Apple iOS and of course, Google Android.
