Our Verdict
Lenovo 100e Chromebook 2nd Gen (2019)
Thomson NEO 10 (2020)
The Thomson NEO 10 (2020) and the Lenovo 100e Chromebook 2nd Gen (2019) are both compact, ultraportable laptops with power-efficient CPUs; however. the Lenovo runs Chrome OS, while the Thomson runs Windows 10. The Lenovo is a better laptop overall, with a better-performing CPU, a better display, and a far better battery life. Also, it has a better-feeling keyboard and touchpad and a significantly superior webcam and microphone. The Thomson is only a better option if you absolutely need a Windows device.
