Lenovo has announced that a new compact gaming tablet is on the way.
The company has officially hinted at the upcoming refresh of the Legion Y700, indicating that a launch is on the horizon.
Lenovo’s update to the Legion Y700 Android gaming tablet has been much anticipated. Initially, a leak last year suggested the development of a next-gen version with an enhanced processor and improved battery life. Now, Lenovo has officially acknowledged that a refreshed Legion Y700 is forthcoming.
The original Legion Y700 gained a fanbase due to its compact form, crisp display, and gaming-centric design, appealing to gamers seeking a portable Android tablet adept at running resource-intensive games. Lenovo’s refresh arrives as the demand for small, high-performance gaming tablets continues to rise.
The company teased the forthcoming gaming tablet in a recent Weibo post (via Notebookcheck), sharing images depicting it in both black and white variations. Although Lenovo did not disclose any specifications, the visuals imply it may feature a single rear camera complemented by an RGB ring, along with prominent Legion branding on the back.
Anticipated high-end specifications for the next-gen Legion Y700
As per reputable tipster Digital Chat Station, the upgraded Lenovo Legion Y700 is expected to include an 8.8-inch LCD display with a 3K resolution and a refresh rate of 165Hz. The tablet is rumored to be powered by Qualcomm’s flagship Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chipset, representing a substantial upgrade from the current model. Other spec leaks indicate a sizable 9,000mAh battery and a 50MP rear camera, although these details have not yet been confirmed by Lenovo.
At this moment, Lenovo has only confirmed that the tablet is in development and will be available soon. Digital Chat Station suggests a March release in China, so further information may emerge in the weeks leading up to the announcement. Details regarding pricing and international availability remain undisclosed.
