Our Verdict

ASUS Chromebook Flip CX5 14 (2021)

Lenovo Chromebook Duet 5 (2021)

Although the ASUS Chromebook Flip CX5 14 (2021) and the Lenovo Chromebook Duet 5 (2021) are both 2-in-1s, the ASUS is a convertible with a 360-degree hinge, while the Lenovo is a tablet with a detachable kickstand. If you mainly need the laptop for work or school, the ASUS is a better option because it has a much better keyboard and touchpad, a wider port selection, and better performance overall. However, the Lenovo is a better option if you only need the laptop for media consumption, as its OLED display provides a much better viewing experience, especially in dim settings.
