Uh, no. You just go to the Windows Store and you can turn off S mode permanently for free using the free app there.

Hands on review of the Duet 3i in this configuration. [mynexttablet.com]

He says: Slow/laggy, sometimes stalls but with a very good screen and 6 hours run time.

He recommends if you NEED Windows and need cheap (reviewed at $400).

I'm in, my Surface Go 2 was a lot faster with more storage, but it was 6 times the price.

thanks OP.

I've loaded chrome os flex on old computers before. Works wonderfully. However, there are reduced features on flex vs regular chrome os, such as not being able to install android apps. I have also installed Linux distros on old laptops and find the increased functionality offered by Linux to be worth just going with Linux over chrome os, full or flex. (For instance, if you have a cd/dvd drive in your laptop, Linux can use it whereas Chrome can't). Either way, don't throw those "old" computers out before installing one of these operating systems on them to see how they run first. It might blow your mind. Also, getting a cheap SSD to install the OS on, even if it's Windows 10, will make a night and day difference. Linux and Chrome will be even faster than that. I don't recall the specs, but I've got an old budget Lenovo G700 from 2013 with a Pentium chip that runs marvelously this way. However, even without SSD chrome os flex or Linux will be noticeably snappier. I'm a fan of Zorin and Pop! OS as Linux distros, especially if you're migrating from Windows. But there are lots of versions and everyone has their favorite. Google around for a distro site that can be helpful to you if you want to give Linux a spin. It's worth it.

The RAM is a stinker, but 1080p 2-in-1 (more like tablet) with N4020 seems good for this price. You could easily find something to do with it.

Really tempting...but the low RAM + Windows might make this laggy, no? Better to wait for a deal on similar specs on a Chromebook version?

Can Linux be installed on this? Might be faster, but not sure if touch screen will work

Seems like it'll work. Quick Google search shows that someone did it with a little bit of work to make the screen function with sleep/resume. I'm buying it for usage with Linux as well.

This cpu is so weak. One step up from the old atoms cpus but with only 2 cores. I have a old laptop with an N5000 CPU which is twice as fast as this one and it's super slow.

Lenovo - Chromebook Duet - 10.1Touch Screen Tablet - 4GB Memory

Which has better performance this or to Chromebook? I know it's slightly different comparison of Chromebook against windows...

Specs say the screen's aspect ratio is 16:10, but if the screen size is 1920 x 1080 (per the specs), isn't the aspect ratio 1.77?

The Chromebook version will have better performance because of the much lighter weight operating system. The review mentioned here discusses it.

For the tech savvy, the converting the 3i to Linux would solve it, and it seems multiple people have done that.
