Lenovo recently introduced the latest version of its Legion Y700 tablet, known as the Lenovo Legion Tab, to the global market. This move suggests that the company is gearing up to launch a new tablet model specifically in China.
Lenovo's New Tablet for the Chinese Market
According to Chinese tipster DCS, a compact yet high-performance tablet is set to hit the Chinese market soon. While it may seem like an entirely new model, Lenovo's consumer marketing director has clarified that it is essentially the Lenovo Legion Y700 2023 model with a modified screen. The key change lies in the screen type, transitioning from glossy to a matte finish for the upcoming version.
Benefits of a Matte Display
A matte display boasts an anti-glare coating that aids in diffusing light, thereby minimizing reflections and enhancing visibility under bright lighting conditions. The consumer marketing director at Lenovo also hinted that the next iteration of the Legion Y700 tablet will take some time before its launch in China. Additionally, a new YOGA Pad is anticipated to debut later this year. The release date for the Legion Y700 2023 model with a matte display is anticipated to fall around April.
Lenovo Legion Y700 2023 Specifications
The Lenovo Legion Y700 2023 showcases an 8.8-inch LCD screen with a resolution of 2560 x 1600 pixels, delivering 343 pixels per inch (PPI), a swift 144Hz refresh rate, and a peak brightness of 500 nits. Powering the device is the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Plus Gen 1 chipset, coupled with LPDDR5 RAM and UFS 3.1 storage.
Equipped with a 6,500mAh battery, the tablet supports 45W fast charging and bypass charging functionality. Noteworthy features include dual stereo speakers, dual USB Type-C ports (one supporting video output), a 13MP rear camera, an 8MP front camera, and a MicroSD card slot.
