Legion Tab Gen 4: New Lenovo gaming tablet gets a display upgrade

The refreshed Lenovo Y700 pad is set to launch in China in May 2025, and it's expected to make a global debut as the Legion Tab Gen 4. With recent teasers, the company has already confirmed a good number of the device's highlights, and now, it has detailed the screen specs of the new Snapdragon 8 Elite gaming tablet.

As one of the latest teasers reveals, the Gen 4 gaming tablet will come with a slightly upgraded display than the Gen 3. To be specific, the upcoming tab retains the same compact 8.8-inch display found in the predecessor, but it sees a resolution upgrade, from 2560x1660 pixels to 3040x1904.

Lenovo highlights that this resolution upgrade would make the screen offer a high 408 PPI, leading to even more detailed images. The display of the Legion Tab Gen 4 has a global brightness rating of 600 nits, which is another improvement from the 500 nits panel that the predecessor features (curr. $489.99 on Lenovo).

Regarding the other specs of the Lenovo Legion Tab Gen 4's display, they are pretty much the same as the predecessor. It retains the 165 Hz refresh rate, but the touch sampling rate is upgraded from 288 Hz to 360 Hz, which should lead to more responsive inputs.

Other highlights of the display include support for 12-bit color depth, wide DCI-P3 color coverage, and 10x super-resolution support. Lenovo has yet to share the exact launch date and pricing details of the Legion Tab Gen 4, but reservations have already opened in China.
