Initially launched in China last year, the gaming-focused Lenovo Legion Y700 (2023) tablet is now expanding its availability to global markets as the tech giant seeks to reach a wider audience. Targeting primarily EMEA and Asia regions, with additional select markets to follow suit, Lenovo aims to broaden the accessibility of the Legion Y700 (2023).
The global version retains the same specifications as its Chinese counterpart. The tablet continues to boast a 144Hz 8.8-inch IPS LCD panel with a generous resolution of 1600 x 2560px. While it supports Dolby Vision and HDR10, it’s important to note that HDR content may not display the same quality as on an OLED screen.
Under the hood, the device is powered by the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 processor, paired with either 12 GB/256 GB or 16 GB/512 GB memory configurations. Additionally, storage expansion is possible via a microSD card slot.

On the rear, there’s a 13MP primary camera accompanied by a 2MP macro lens, along with an 8MP front-facing camera. Fueling the device is a 6,550 mAh battery, supporting 45W wired charging for swift recharges.
With the Legion ColdFront passive cooling solution featuring a dedicated vapor chamber, the tablet ensures prolonged gaming sessions with optimal performance. Moreover, it offers various performance modes tailored to different usage scenarios.
Similar to some gaming phones, the Legion Y700 features two USB-C ports, although these are not for faster charging or pass-through charging. One is designated for standard charging, while the other allows you to connect the tablet to an external display using the DisplayPort 1.4 standard.
Scheduled for release in EMEA countries this month, the tablet will be available starting at €599.
