‘Lenovo Googlebook Duet 13’ leak points to January launch [Gallery]

Google teased last month that detachable Googlebooks are coming soon, and a leak today provides the best look at the “Lenovo Googlebook Duet 13” yet. This follows the first leak in July that showed a 2-in-1 tablet and two laptops, with the Lenovo Googlebook 15 launching in October. Evan Blass today shared more images of the “Lenovo Googlebook Duet 13” and noted that it is “launching in January.” Notably, the branding builds on Lenovo’s Chromebook Duet lineup, while we get confirmation of the 13-inch screen. The top-down view shows the detachable keyboard with keys that feature a bottom curvature, like on the available Lenovo device. We see a trackpad that is on the smaller side, while “Googlebook” appears below the Ctrl key. This image also shows the stylus. Blass previously shared images in September that showed a physical switch at the right edge of the keyboard, while the pen magnetically attaches and charges when docked on the top edge. There’s a pill-shaped cutout at the top-right edge that might be a curiously placed USB-C port. It’s not the power button as that’s on the left edge, which is home to another USB-C connector at the bottom. The removable back cover stand looks to be magnetic and has a diagonal fold with rather prominent “Lenovo” branding. The Glowbar is placed next to the camera on the rear side. The rumored January launch would align with a CES 2027 announcement. It would serve as the next big moment for Googlebooks, with Google spending the last few weeks on bug fixes and improvements.
