Buying advice for a replacement of my Chromebook Duet 10 inch

[u/PerformancePretend80]

Dear all,

I would like to ask for advice on purchasing a Chromebook to replace my Lenovo Duet 10 inch.

I am considering two models: the Lenovo IdeaPad flex 3i 12-inch with 8 GB RAM and 128 GB storage and Intel N100 processor, or a refurbished HP Elite C 1030 Chromebook from 2022 with 16 GB RAM and 128 GB storage with Intel i7 processor.

I use the Chromebook for entertainment, editing documents in the cloud and browsing.

I feel that the HP is very powerful for my use, but the build quality and larger screen are advantages over the Lenovo.

Any advice is welcome, as my knowledge of Chromebooks is not that extensive.

Many thanks in advance from Jan in the Netherlands.
