A couple of weeks ago, Lenovo unveiled the first looks of the Legion Y700 Gaming Tablet along with some of its specs and features device. Now, live images of the upcoming tablet have surfaced giving a deeper look at its design profile and even comparing it against the Apple iPad mini 2021.
Weibo tipster Fat Boy has managed to get his hands on a Legion Y700 Gaming Tablet to compare it side by side an iPad mini 6 in the looks and design department.
The images reveal that the 8.8-inch Lenovo Legion Y700 tablet is almost equal to the Apple iPad mini 2021 when it comes to height (landscape) and is a a lot wider that the mini offering by Apple. The device is also noticeably thicker when compared to the iPad mini. Additionally, the images reveal that the device has two speaker grills, one located on the bottom while other on top. The USB-C port is present on the bottom of the device while the 3.5mm audio jack in the center at the top.
Many people have questioned this design choice by Lenovo as the positioning of the 3.5mm headphone jack might be a hinderance when plugged in while gaming.
The device features wide bezzles on top and bottom coupled with comparitevly narrower bezzles on the sides. According to the specs previously revealed by the company, the Legion Y700 Gaming Tablet comes with an 8.8-inch 2560 × 1600p display. The device is revealed to have a 120Hz refresh rate screen with a 240Hz touch sampling rate and supporting 100% DCI-P3 color gamut.
One of the edges was also previously shown to feature JBL, Dolby Vision, and Dolby Atmos tags, indicating that the tablet will likely also feature some really high-quality speakers for a great gaming experience.
The device was previously remored to be powered by the latest Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 chipset but new rumors have hinted at the device housing a Snapdragon 888 SoC while the SD 8 Gen 1 can come with a higher tier (rumored) Legion Y900 Gaming Tablet. As of yet, there is no word from Lenovo on an official launch date of the Legion Y700 Gaming Tablet so stay tuned for more updates.
