Lenovo is set to introduce its new gaming tablet, the Legion Y700, in China on September 29th. We already knew it would be equipped with the powerful Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chip, but Lenovo has now revealed some initial performance results for the Legion Y700 (2024) to build excitement.
Performance Insights for Gamers
As per Lenovo's post on Weibo, the Y700 achieves an average of 59.8 FPS in 3D turn-based mobile games at a resolution of 2560×1600 pixels. This performance is commendable, especially with a low power consumption of only 8.8W.
RPG enthusiasts will find this even more intriguing. Lenovo reports an average of 59.9 FPS in open-world RPGs, with a rendering resolution of 1728×1080 pixels, consuming 9.5W of power. The promotional image features a scene from Genshin Impact, a well-known resource-intensive title on Android. Although specific games were not listed, this indicates that the Y700 can manage demanding games with ease.
Impressive Benchmark Figures
For combat mobile games, the tablet maintains an average of 59.9 FPS at a resolution of 2304×1440 pixels. While no specific titles are mentioned, the high resolution is certainly encouraging. These performance figures are commendable, but it’s important to consider the recently released RedMagic Nova, which also utilizes the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 but with the “Leading Version” variant that may offer slightly improved performance. However, we will need to wait for detailed reviews to make a fair comparison.
Specifications and Features
In addition to its powerful Snapdragon processor, the Y700 (2024) includes a smooth 165Hz refresh rate display. It also features a vapor chamber cooling system designed to manage heat effectively. This cooling system is notably large, measuring 10,004 mm², which Lenovo claims is comparable to the size of a mobile screen.
We won't have to wait long to see the real-world performance of this device. The Legion Y700 will be launched in just two days, and reviews are expected to appear shortly after. In the meantime, you can check out our review of last year’s model linked below.
