Lenovo was earlier claimed to be developing a new gaming tablet using Qualcomm's flagship Snapdragon 8 Elite CPU. Aside from leaks and suspicions, we now have formal confirmation that a new Legion-series tablet will be released in China shortly. It is the fourth-generation iteration of the Lenovo Legion Y700 and will succeed the Legion Y700 in 2025. Although major characteristics for the new tablet have yet to be officially unveiled, multiple tipsters have speculated on some of its expected features.
Lenovo Legion Y700 4th Generation Tablet Launch: What We Know
The fourth-generation Lenovo Legion Y700 tablet will be available in China in May, the company revealed in a Weibo post. It will be complemented by the Lenovo Legion AIPC Y9000P 2025 Supreme Edition, the business announced. Both the next tablet and laptop are expected to include AI-powered functionality.
Lenovo is preparing to host an AI-focused conference in China on May 7. The tablet may be revealed during this event or later in the month.
In a teaser video, the fourth-generation Lenovo Legion Y700 tablet is revealed with a somewhat different design than the current third-generation tablet, the Legion Y700 (2025). While the earlier model had a twin back camera unit, the next edition looks to feature only one rear camera. It is shown in black and white, identical to the present model.
Previous rumors stated that the next Lenovo Legion tablet will include a Snapdragon 8 Elite CPU, an 8.8-inch Huaxing LCD screen, two X-axis vibration motors, and a dual speaker setup. Tipster Digital Chat Station (translated from Chinese) currently reports that the tablet will include a 3K resolution display with a refresh rate of 165Hz. The tablet is expected to have a battery capacity of around 7,000 to 8,000mAh.
Notably, the current Lenovo Legion Y700 (2025) tablet features an 8.8-inch (2,560x1,600 pixel) display with a refresh rate of 165Hz, a Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 SoC, and a 6,550mAh battery.
