The big names (Samsung, Xiaomi) have been led astray by making top-end tablets bigger and bigger. Y700 is probably the only one that still has size under 9 inch while packing top-end SoC in it.
I want like S21 or smaller size but still have same feature like s23 ultra... I don't really like big phone, same like Newest s9 and s8 ultra that's too big.
#iwear brother hes looking less pricy gaming tablets and snapdragon is optimised for gaming and more longer battery life while iphone battery svcks and swell in the long term and expensive to replace not practical for them
@@iwearLingerie the y700 2023 version is a snapdragon 8+. that's optimized for gaming. plus the refresh rate of ipad mini 6 is only at 60hz while the y700 is 120hz. so that's already a no brainer for me.
@@iwearLingerie well too bad, samsung tablets are not that exceptional. they're just good for media consumption and work. The only good in Sammy is their s23 series. Sure, the mini 6 might be the best at handling heavy games, no doubt, but that high refresh and high touch sampling rate really makes a difference. Not being a "shill", just my two cents from my POV and experience.
@@iwearLingerie I'm not a hater of apple, btw. I like their products. If only they had a version of mini 6 (hopefully a mini 7) that has higher refresh rate, then my search is over for a mini tablet that is the best for gaming. I'll be just saving up then to get one.
I hope Lenovo releases this in the USA. It checks all the boxes for what I want in a tablet and there's really no competition in this space that I can find.
I imported last year's version from Hong Kong. Yes, it's the Chinese version. But it has Google Play and does everything I need. There are maybe 3 or 4 Chinese apps that I just ignore. And it's by far faster than any other 8 inch tablet available in the USA.
@@villardj Hm, you're really tempting me! As well as the usual stuff, one of my main use cases for this is a bit niche (emulation in portrait mode with a physical controller), but yeah I can hide or ignore the Chinese apps that can't be uninstalled. I'll probably agonize over it a couple more days and just order it. I mean, the only other contender might be a new Samsung Galaxy Tab, but even the smallest one is bigger than I want and starts at 800 bucks. Absurd.
Oh, they just released the global version. It's the 2023 version with the snapdragon green 1, so faster than the one that I have. I'm thinking about upgrading since it's the global version.
Big, BIG respect for at least mentioning rhythm games. I was currently looking for a good tablet for those kinds of games and it looks like I already found a perfect tablet for it.
I have the 2022 Y700 and it is very nice for playing games and watching movies. The size is just right i can prop on table or hold it while in the sofa. I wish they have a sim or global version though.
When will this device be available Global Officially? I so looking forward for this device since the first gen was introduced 😢. Plus why doesn't Lenovo make a LTE support version as an option?
Already bought one from CHINA ( I am from Spain) that’s the beast I was waiting for …and don’t bother me if it has just English- Chinese , still you can download whichever game from the European play store 😊 can´t wait to unleash the beast…
i really dont like big size tablets because i just need something a bit bigger than my phone and not equal to a laptop size...hope this model comes to international market
Can't wait for the global launch to make it to the US, definitely going to pick this up. Looking for a tablet for my gf, but I don't think she can wait. iPad mini for her, and this one for me later. Rocking the Lenovo tab p11 right now. Primarily got it for watching movies and yt at work, but it also works well with Xbox remote play. Doesn't handle fortnite mobile and team fight tactics well. So I can't wait for this to be an overall upgrade for my media entertainment consumption, and handle gaming if I want to.
I saw a review of the Lenovo extreme. Way too big for my needs but very powerful and 8 speakers is awesome. But this Lenovo Legion is right up to my wants and needs, but more compact. I don't see it on Amazon yet. I am thinking of buying this. Good review 👍🙂👏👏
The problem is no global version... There no option this kind of tablet in market.... Compact size with high end spec... All on the market only bigger size...compact size only midrange spec.. 🙄🙄
ill wait for Snapdragon 8th Gen 2. 9inch tablet is good.. i like my ipad mini, but cant install firefox addon (for ublock/pop up addons) which doesnt work well on ipad mini browser.
I got mine yesterday. After deleting the pre-installed and installing a launcher and keyboard, it's actually really good. I just need a case and screen protector. A global version would help streamline some features and experiences I expect from the likes of samsung.
Hey, do you play MOBAS? I am aware the tablets cut a fair bit of screen real-estate off when playing Moba games but they installed a feature on this tablet that allows the player to see a good amount of screen? If you know what I mean.
The sd870 version when on sale for ali 230usd makes me ask if this is what most consumers should go for instead. the pen tech though im kind of over it. The emr on boox/samsungs is great. But i dont want more pens 🙃 its like powertool brands n batteries..
I would like to have something like this but let's just say have the "Fan Edition" of the tab S9 do the "fusion dance" with something like this or better
THEY NEED TO MAKE THIS ACCESSIBLE TO THE GLOBAL MARKETS WITH 4G/5G CELLULAR CONNECTIVITY AND GPS AND GOOGLE PLAY STORE, TOO MANY ISSUES WITH FOLDING PHONES BECAUSE OF HINGE! THERE IS NO COMPETITION FOR THE IPAD MINI 6!!! WHY ISN'T ANYONE MAKING HIGH-END GAMING 8-INCH PHABLETS?? HUGE MARKET FOR THIS!
The Y700 looks very nice!! btw I asked about the charging of OnePlus Ace2Pro on the last video, can you tell me more abouot the 100v area? you tole me it was upto 100W, could you tell me the output voltage and wattage at 100v input? thanks
This model and its predecessor both support Google Play Service , and Google Play Store is install-able from the 3rd-party APKPure app store. English is available in the system languages. I also bought the non-global version and consider it fine to use all non-China-exclusive features so far. And, in-app purchase on Google Play store also works fine on Lenovo's tablet (non-global version). No need to root the system, nor need to do special cracking. Most of AOSP features are supported at the Android system level that are not affected by highly customized ZUI. Are you looking for some features that are really not available in the non-global version? :)
@@awesomeferret So no issues with OTA updates and the tablet will function as any normal one would ? I'm hearing mixed answers on that so I'd love to rule it out if they were to release a true global version.
RU-vid deleted my comment and therefore my time. Sorry, not going to write it again. Someone else can answer. The tldr was that OTA updates are subjective, and there are some legitimate reasons these days to intentionally stay on older versions of Android (so that your device can literally have more functionality at the cost of slightly less security... What a strange world).
The 2022 version very much can handle any games at highest graphic. If you onto more heavy games like switch emulator why not take the 2023 version if you can afford it.
The 2023 version actually costs 339-340$ in china 🧐 AliExpress is still selling it for way too much, i will myself wait until it costs at least 350$ - 360$
Sold mine, the previous version, because Disney+ is black screen. I hope this one will make it play smooth. Also, I have sometimes trouble reinstalling Google play. Maybe because it's china version. But I have no problems with other china brand before with installing google. So I don't know what was wrong with it.
Ooof. What did you do to your tablet? Is that an Android 12 thing? I kept mine on 11, and Disney+ works perfectly. 🤷♂️ Mine is the China version too. Edit: yup, it's either your fault or the fault of a firmware update. Just checked and it works perfectly.
Is this available for the US? I really want a small android powerful tablet. I had a tab S6 (none lite version) but to me 11 inches tablets are not comfortable for gaming.

I want one of these but the fact there's no "Global" version with 5G/LTE support kind of takes it off the table for me. I like the specs and I just want it to use Remote Play from my PS5 and do some light Android gaming. I'm a stock Android user. I'll get rid of the bloatware from Verizon and some of Google's stuff but I pretty much leave it as is and download all my games from Google Play Store. Has anyone bought this model and tried using it in the States? Can you just change the language to English and be off? Or is there some tinkering you have to do to get it to work?
Hows the resolution and image quality in genshin impact and other games? Does it look blurry and really crappy like on samsung Galaxy tab s7? Cos i dont like playing it on my s7 tablet because of the poor quality even when set to all max. Really looking for a gaming tablet for genshin impact amd wuthering waves and this might be the one if the image quality and sharpness is there.
is it true that during videocall using fb messenger lenovo cannot support videocalling?..I'm eyeing this device for a week now..but mostly for videocalling purposes.
Never will there be a global version, even if there would be it would sell for twice the price Tho AliExpress exists, and the tablet has English and Chinese
@Vlad_lol i think it will be not twice. Because black market in my country sells at 50% more expensive price in china. I dont want buy from black market. I need service and guarantees in officially in my country.
I don't get it sounds like you're a typical Apple sheep. Which is fine but why even bother to click on anything that's not Apple if all you do is say the same comment over and over again anytime there's a product that's not Apple? Why even watch these videos my guy?
Excellent tablet from Lenovo but unfortunately NO global version release with Google Play Services and multi languages. Languages : only Chinese and English.
@@modestman6753 Yes you are right. What is wrong with Lenovo ? Excellent Tablet and NO global version. They think at Lenovo that people all over the world speak English and Chinese.
I have the first gen Chinese version and In my personal opinion, it’s not worth it. It’s very expensive and heat a lot and the customer service is very horrible. I regret buying it and promises not buying lenovo again. Be careful of so many lies around.
Come on buddy this isn't all about gaming Why don't you say anything about Android update it gets and the other usage than gaming like note taking it supports stylus
Myself I don't care about updates cuz my phone never got an update (in 5 years!!)and still works fine, never got a virus (even tho i download stuff from the internet all the time)
That's a bummer that they downgraded the charger. I guess it was too pro consumer to put two usb ports on a charging brick, because screw mother earth!
I have a Tab S7 and the gaming performance was ALWAYS awful (thinking hard about buying an iPad Air 5) maybe it's because Samsung put a lot of useless things and cap the processor, my GT Neo 3 performance is perfect and stable, Genshin at 90fps
Perfect size for gaming, in fact 10' or more are unusable mostly in games such as COD or PUBG Unfortunately it's not sold in Italy and ... I guess neither in EU 😢
It's effectively sold worldwide. Import it. Too easy. I'm in the USA and the only difference was that it took a month to arrive. I got mine on Aliexpress.
@@quchi7232 I don't think it'll be released globally because they want to push the Legion Go ... but it's a mistake to don't think at Android users as the customers are completely different.
@@TheMagnitudo uhhh... Rewrite your comment? I don't have "assistance in case of troubles" but that didn't keep me from buying it. 😂 You may choose to not buy it due to the lack of support, but that does NOT mean you can't buy it.
