Lenovo is gearing up to launch a brand-new gaming tablet, the fourth-gen Y700. This new Snapdragon 8 Elite tab has recently been officially teased, and now, it has made an appearance in a teaser video.

The Lenovo Legion gaming tablet is due for a refresh. While the company has not fully detailed the tab yet, it has already been showcased in official teaser photos. Now, the company has given another glimpse of the device in a new teaser video.

As the video shows, the form factor of the upcoming Legion gaming tablet will remain pretty much the same as the third-gen device. It will feature the same 8.8-inch IPS screen as the predecessor but with a resolution upgrade. To be specific, reliable tipster Digital Chat Station adds that this display will sport a 3K screen resolution, which would be an improvement from the 2.5K screen of the third-gen device. However, it's expected to retain the same 165 Hz refresh rate.

Getting back to the new video, it further shows that the fourth-gen Lenovo Legion gaming tablet will feature a single camera on the back, which is something the last teasers have already shown. Its predecessor, in comparison, has a dual-camera setup on the back, but as we noted in our previous coverage, it won't be much of a downgrade, as the secondary camera on the third-gen device was a macro sensor.

Other than that, the new teaser video didn't show much, but Digital Chat Station added that the fourth-gen Lenovo Legion gaming tablet will sport a battery capacity of over 7,000 mAh (25,000 mAh Ugreen Nexode power bank curr. $74.99 on Amazon), which would be another upgrade over the predecessor. It will also reportedly feature a dual X-axis vibration motor and a dual-speaker setup. As for the launch, Lenovo has confirmed that it's set for May 2025.
