Two photos shared by Lenovo executives on Weibo have further illuminated some of the dark patches relating to the Lenovo Legion Pad. The images indicate that the Legion Pad will be a pretty small tablet with a focus on gaming applications. The images shared on Weibo were the front and the back of the tablet which also had the Legion branding.

Earlier rumors had put the size of the Lenovo Legion Pad at 8 inches and these new images seem to support the claim. To put the size of the Legion Pad in perspective, the Lenovo Legion 2 Pro smartphone has a 6.92-inch display. The absence of physical controls on the tablet gives it an edge over the unreleased, 7-inch screen-packing Lenovo Legion Play, which has built-in D-pads, joysticks, and other gaming control buttons.

Gaming-focused tablets are a rarity and the Lenovo Legion Pad may ride on the crest of its compact design for a share of the gaming market. The device will most likely be powered by either of Qualcomm’s Snapdragon premium chips – the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 or the Snapdragon 666, although this remains speculative. Other specs details are still lacking at this time, as well as availability details.
