Lenovo IdeaPad Duet 5 Chromebook (Snapdragon 7c/4GB RAM/128GB eMMC, 13.3" FHD) $212 Price Beat + Del ($0 C&C) @ The Good Guys

2380

Looks like The Good Guys will "Price Beat" on the Duet 5 4GB model down to $212, not sure who they are price beating but nearly 80% off RRP. Was looking at the 8GB model but this is too good of a deal to pass up. Not sure how long this will last.

Pair with Commbank Yello $30 off $200 to get it down to $182.

Edit: Must click "Price Check: Pay Less with PRICE BEAT" button or try to navigate away from the page to capture the deal.

        Arrived this morning.

        • What's your review so far? I'm waiting on mine still, debating cancelling.

    • +2

      Mine says the same. I ordered pretty late though. Was resisting for ages, then jumped on it just before it went OOS

    • +2

      Mine says Awaiting picking. Your product is arriving from our supplier and will be picked for you shortly.

      • +2

        same with mine noodles

        • yep same here, says awaiting picking

          Status Description: Your product is arriving from our supplier and will be picked for you shortly. Youll receive an update from us as your order is ready to despatch.

          fingers crossed!

    Anyone with it, comment on speed? As mentioned, I have had a 4GB Duet before and the performance wasn't great. For $212 I am sure it will be ok. The full price at JB, you would be super disappointed for sure.

      I've had mine for a couple days now, booking a holiday at the moment with multiple tabs open, sharing the screen to the TV, a little noticeable slowness but still very usable. I'm very happy for $182 ($30 rebate from Commbank).

      • how did that cashback work? I'm with CBA.. Ive got yellow or whatever the hell it's called ๐Ÿคฃ

        • You just "Activate" the deal in the app and then make the purchase with your Commbank Card, a week or so later they deposit the rebate back into your account. I haven't gotten it for the Good Guys yet but I've done it before.

      • Did you watch any Youtube videos on it? How's the quality and performance if you up it to 4K?

        • +2

          Yes I watched a few videos around the 8GB model, seems to be one of the highest rated Chromebooks. And I haven't done that much testing sorry, don't think the display will go up to 4K though.

      • Didn't you forget cashback?
        I had $15 cashback tracked, $30 from Commbank, and I paid $220 (includes +$8 delivery). Worked out $175 delivered, but it wasn't posted yet.

        • Damn, I missed cashback!

          • +1

            @dualcore: Crap, me too! Was it a regular ShopBack or Cashrewards thing or for CBA customers only?

    An update - like some of you guys, I ordered and didn't get any ETA

    I went on Live Chat, gave my details and order no and the robot said:

    We can see your product is currently on order ๐Ÿ˜ƒ
    We are expecting that you will receive your order on or around 11/12/2023

    • +1

      Nice. I just did the same thing and I got a date of the 15/12/2023.

      So at least the dates are unique. It seems like it'll hopefully go through.

    • +1

      We are expecting that you will receive your order on or around 14/12/2023

    We have an update as we know you've been patiently waiting for your Lenovo Duet 5 13.3" SnapDragon 4GB 128GB eMMC Chromebook.

    Unfortunately, we've been advised of a supplier delay which will mean we can't deliver to you as quickly as we'd intended. Sincere apologies for the delay. If there's any further updates provided to us we'll let you know as soon as we can.

    We can assure you that your product is already allocated to you from our supplier delivery, and as soon as it arrives we'll coordinate delivery for you. If you have any further questions or wish to alter your order, please contact us through Live Chat on our help centre.

        got the exact same! I feel like theyll cancel our orders :(

      • Thanks mate, can see the same. Very poor communication from TGG team, they should send an email on the update how long it's going to take. Imagine if it's going to take 2/3 months. They already charged the full amount with no clear communication.

          Yes, same situation here. And I used a commbank cc, the $30 already in my account. What will happen if my order is cancelled?

    Hello 'on-order' squad.

    TGG customer service advised late Jan early Feb and won't be cancelling orders unless the SKU becomes discontinued.

    • thanks for the update!

    • I was advised yesterday from online chat that it had an ETA from supplier of late Dec. Maybe there are different allocations depending on time of purchase?

    • Received my email and it says "Unfortunately, we've been advised by the supplier of a delay and that we can now expect to receive your order around week commencing 25-12-2023 . This is still a best estimate and subject to change, but we wanted to let you know ASAP. Sincere apologies for the delay."

        No offence but reminded of a photo I have on my phone :) definitely something to lift the spirits up (or for other ppl)

        https://ibb.co/KG2ZBVn

    • Same here. Dunno what I'll use it on though. I don't think there's a minimum spend, so could probably get something for $20 for free :)

      • Mouse?

    • Did a web chat with a human and they refunded full amount after I mentioned the delay

      • Fully cancelled your order? Or are you saying you got a full refund and are still expecting the delivery?

        • Would have to assume the former.

    • Me too. Need it before school starts

  • We will get our Duet 5, my friends… but it is not this day HOLD STRONG!

    • You guys may miss out on redeeming the minecreaft freebies and 1 year 100GB google one freebie though , about $80 value

    • +5

      Same for me, just got the second email today. We can't just get a bargain without some pain.
      They could avoid the delay by sending the 8GB model which is in stock /s.

      • I haven't received any such email only the $20 gift card

      • +3

        Despite the estimation of 25th Dec, mine is out for delivery today, and I should get it soon. Just a bit of update for people who are waiting.

        • I got the 25th of December eta email 2 days ago, i must have to wait a bit longer

        • +3

          Did you get it

          • @WilhelmBargo: Yes, it was delivered on the same day I posted the comment, the 15th Dec, a good 10 days earlier than their estimation. I disabled Android app support to free up RAM and it performed very decently as a browsing + Netflix device. Keyboard cover, build quality and battery life are top notch.
            Problems so far: connecting to external monitor through my Thunderbolt hub doesn't work, streaming Android app from my Galaxy phone doesn't work.
            I wish it had 8GB RAM so that it could run Android apps comfortably, but it costs me only $182 delivered (not yet counting the $20 store credit, and free Minecraft valued at $30), so I'm still happy.

            • @pn: Did you stress test it with multiple tabs open?

              • +2

                @montorola: I didn't.
                But without Android subsystem running, with an adblocker extension installed, and a few tabs open, it feels snappy and memory is abundant (2GB free in total 4GB). I think it can easily handle 10+ tabs, unless those websites are poorly optimized.
                An amazing piece of computing for the price.

  • +1

    Got the email the other day about the delay to Jan/Feb and a $20 credit

    Today I got this:

    Thanks so much for your order. We have an update as we know youโ€™ve been patiently waiting for your Lenovo Duet 5 13.3" SnapDragon 4GB 128GB eMMC Chromebook.

    Not sure how that is ASAP, when I just noticed others got that email 2 days ago :D

  • Do you think we'll be able to get the free Minecraft deal?

    It says:

    *Offer valid for qualifying Chromebooks purchased between September 7th - December 31st 2023. AUD $30.99 value, for a limited time only.

    I mean we bought and paid for them between those dates, just don't have the bloody things yet!
