but before we hop in the box a quick shout out to mediatek who is powering our on the run to NUMBER_TOKENk giveaway if you didn't know our youtube channel is approaching NUMBER_TOKEN NUMBER_TOKEN subscribers and as a celebration of that milestone we're giving away a bunch of stuff that is powered by mediatek so if you're interested and would like to get entered to win some of this stuff just check the link in the description below follow those links get entered and good luck so i'm not going to avoid the inevitable comparisons between this and the chromebook duet from lenovo i mean they're very similar devices they have the exact same mt NUMBER_TOKEN processor from mediatek inside same four gigs of ram same NUMBER_TOKEN gigs of internal storage they both come with detaching keyboards and kickstand cases but there are some differences between this one and the duet and honestly you're going to pay for it so NUMBER_TOKEN dollars i think is what you can get this particular one for and you probably know this by now but you can get the NUMBER_TOKEN gig version of the duet for NUMBER_TOKEN bucks on any given day at best buy basically so what are you getting for that extra price that becomes the question with this particular device yes it's made by asus and sure it might feel a little bit better but is that really worth almost i don't know what's the math there NUMBER_TOKEN NUMBER_TOKEN uh up charge in price let's find out real quick so inside the box this guy's little this is no surprise here i doubt there's gonna be much else going on in here uh some books nothing over there and as expected a standard wall charger here so again nothing out of the ordinary here this is not an expensive chromebook per se it is more expensive than the lenovo chromebook duet sure but it's not expensive so what do we get here in the box there are a couple unique things on the outside before we even open this chromebook up that differentiate it from the duet for instance and one is the back panel so just like the duet you've kind of got this cloth fabric cover on the outside on both sides that's not actually part of the chromebook itself so if i were to detach this here i can detach that there and then we actually see the chromebook itself or the chromebook tablet or detachable or however you want to call it it is nice and thin so we'll talk about it first actually before we'll talk about the build quality here for just a second a lot like the duet you know nice and firm but nice and light as well we're looking at an all-aluminum back here i believe from asus but the same kind of derivative design here so we've got two speakers up on the top you've got your mics up here on the top um on the side over here you've got a power and volume rocker on the other side you've got a single usb type-c and you've got an earphone jack which is important because the duet doesn't have that and i know headphones are i guess going out of style like wired ones but when we start talking about you know these smaller devices being able to just quickly hook in some earphones if you need them it's just always nice and there aren't that many chromebooks that come with no headphone jack so it's just nice to see
