Lenovo has introduced its latest Legion Tab Y700 model in China, as the successor to last year’s model, which was actually launched in India recently. This retains the 8.8″ 2.5K LCD screen, but has 165Hz refresh rate and is powered by Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 SoC, replacing the 8+ Gen 1 SoC in the predecessor.
This gets up to 16GB of LPDDR5X RAM and up to 512GB UFS 4.0 storage. The VC area is 10004mm², and is claimed to be “larger than a mobile phone screen.”
The Super Control Smart Edition screen is available as an option, which improves smoothness by 4.1 times, reduces screen glare by 96.5%, and reduces flash points by 45% compared to conventional anti-glare screens, says the company.
It retains the 6550mAh battery and gets a faster 68W fast charging compared to 45W in the predecessor.
