The Lenovo Yoga Tab 13 may have leaked again, this time courtesy of a Lenovo employee. The new leak states that Lenovo has developed an Android 11 tablet with a Snapdragon 870 SoC, 8 GB of RAM and 128 GB of storage, which correlates with others that surfaced earlier this month.

Earlier this month, it emerged that Lenovo was working on a new Yoga Tab, having last released one in 2019. The Yoga Smart Tab was a budget tablet with a Snapdragon 439 SoC, but the upcoming model appears to be a more premium device. According to two leaks, Lenovo has equipped the YT-K606F with a Snapdragon 8xx SoC, although it was unclear if this was a Snapdragon 855 or a Snapdragon 865.

Now, Lenovo Notebook Product Manager Lin Lin has published a screenshot that he took on an upcoming Lenovo tablet. While the screenshot does not reveal the device's name, it confirms that Lenovo has equipped it with a Snapdragon 870, an SoC that Qualcomm unveiled in January. The Snapdragon 870 is, effectively, a Snapdragon 865++ as it features a slightly higher CPU Prime core than the Snapdragon 865 Plus.

Additionally, the screenshot points to Lenovo having paired the Snapdragon 870 with 8 GB of RAM and 128 GB of storage. The tablet also runs Android 11, albeit Lenovo's ZUI 12.5 version of it. It is unclear when Lenovo plans to announce its premium tablet, but the teaser implies that the company is close to doing so.
