Of the Android tablet makers out there, Samsung is currently leading the charge when it comes to updates. For instance, my old Xiaomi tablet didn’t receive a single update in the entire time I owned it. However, this also means that you’ll have to wait for updates if you receive them at all. This way, new versions of Android are completely compatible with a manufacturer’s own software and everything works as it should. Unlike with Chromebooks, device manufacturers are responsible for delivering updates to your Android tablet. OS and security updates straight from Google

If you’re wondering why I decided to pick up a Chromebook to use as a tablet instead of opting for one of the best tablets, updates and convenience were the two most important factors in my decision which I’ll go into detail about below. Even though Lenovo’s Memorial Day sale has come and gone, it’s still available at the discounted price of $294 at the time of writing. While the Duet 3 has an MSRP of $359, I was able to pick it up for $281 after taxes on Memorial Day. Likewise, the magnetic case with built-in stand makes it easy to prop up the device when streaming shows online or watching YouTube videos. Although I plan on using the Chromebook Duet 3 mainly as a tablet, the detachable keyboard is still a nice thing to have especially when entering passwords or working on Google Docs.
