Better device? yes, in every possible way. That's why it costs over 4x as much.
Better deal? depends on your needs and budget.

I assume you mean the Duet like 10E.
They are drastically different. You pay a lot more to get 8GB DDR. The processor is a big improvement as is the eMMc.
It is not a Duet just similar the Duet does not have the ear plug and it is a slightly older CPU though just a few percent faster. The eMMC memory might also be faster I just do not know.
Buy this if you open a lot of tabs or want the larger screen though it is heavier. The screen is better per reviews as well. Brighter and more colorful.
The 10E is great at that price.

That's a 6 core 12 thread CPU that scores about 3x the multi core score of this Chromebook, with a real keyboard.
That would come with 8G of DDR 3200 Ram and a 256G M.2 drive. The problem with Snapdragon processors is they are used to charging a premium in the cellphone market, but they aren't competitive with laptop parts.
This does ok against the Intel CPUs in $300 Chromebooks but isn't exactly a barn burner for the price. (Better than dual core Pentiums.)
It's probably fine for a Chromebook but way overpriced. I wouldn't pay more than $300 for this because the hardware just isn't worth a premium in the laptop/Chromebook space. Since Intel announced just there 12th Gen mobile parts I expect there to be some more interesting offeringssoon. By the time this Snapdragon based system drops in price there will be much better hardware available. It's a shame, if they would offer something that gave you good performance/dollar I would love a decent Arm based laptop.
