Lenovo is reportedly working on an updated version of its Legion Y700 (2024) gaming tablet (Legion Tab 2025), according to leaks from tipster Digital Chat Station. The new model is expected to replace the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chip in the 2023 Y700 with Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite.

It will retain the 8.8-inch display size with a high refresh rate, likely 144Hz or 165Hz, but feature a larger battery than its predecessor’s 6,550mAh capacity, along with a slimmer design, dual speakers, and dual X-axis vibration motors. Specific battery details remain unconfirmed. We can take a look at its predecessor, the Legion Y700 (2024) to get a better idea of what to expect from the upcoming Lenovo tablet.

The current Legion Y700 (2024) offers an 8.8-inch 2560×1600 LCD screen with a 165Hz refresh rate, 343 PPI density, 500 nits brightness, and TÜV Rheinland certifications for eye comfort. Its successor is expected to maintain most of these specs, including DCI-P3 color gamut support and DeltaE<1 color accuracy.

Powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, the Y700 features LPDDR5X RAM, UFS 4.0 storage, and Lenovo’s QianKun cooling system with a 10,004mm² vapor chamber. The Y700 incorporates Lenovo’s Lingjing Engine, reducing touch and network latency. Dual USB-C ports, dual X-axis linear motors, and dual ultra-linear speakers enhance gaming immersion. The device weighs 350g, runs ZUI 16.1, and has a 6,550mAh battery, providing up to 14.6 hours of video playback or 8.9 hours of gaming.

In other news, Lenovo’s Legion Go S, now priced at $549.99, directly competes with Valve’s Steam Deck OLED. It matches the OLED model in price but offers extras like Hall effect joysticks, adjustable triggers, and a variable refresh rate display.
