To round out the charts, we're including the older Surface Pro 8 in a high-end Intel Core i7 configuration and the Asus VivoBook Slate T3300, which combines a deluxe OLED display with a very low-end Pentium Silver CPU. The Duet 5i isn't quite as sleek, but it's still extremely slim and portable at 0.35 by 11.22 by 7.36 inches (HWD) and 2.53 pounds. It's definitely a step above cheaper devices and not too far from the panache of the Surface Pro and XPS 13 2-in-1, each of which starts at $999. Considering its price, the tablet feels well-made and looks good the blue color is pleasant, and the chassis feels sturdy.

Lenovo's design is pretty simple, but that's not a bad thing. If you're a Windows user who likes the tablet-plus-keyboard concept, and you don't need tons of power, the IdeaPad Duet 5i is a first-class value. Its modest storage and Core i3 processor are the only real knocks, but with no obvious design flaws, steady performance, and good pricing, it earns our Editors' Choice award for the budget category. Now Lenovo has brought the same concept to Microsoft's operating system with the IdeaPad Windows Duet 5i ($789.99 as low as $529.99 on sale), a fully functional Windows 11 portable with a keyboard included that undercuts premium models like the Microsoft Surface Pro 9 and the Dell XPS 13 2-in-1. When Lenovo's IdeaPad Duet 5 Chromebook and IdeaPad Duet 3 Chromebook came across our test bench in recent years, we were impressed by their affordable and versatile 2-in-1 laptop designs.
