Lenovo just gave its gaming tablet the OLED display it needed. Now bring it to the U.S.
The new Legion Y700 Infinite fixes one of the biggest omissions on Lenovo’s gaming tablet with a 165Hz OLED display, but the battery is smaller than the one in the current Legion Tab Gen 5.
The Legion Tab Gen 5, a compact gaming tablet by Lenovo, is set to receive a significant upgrade with the introduction of an OLED display. This new version, named the Legion Y700 Infinite, boasts a 165Hz refresh rate and a higher resolution of 2560 x 1600. However, this improved model has only been released in China so far, leaving U.S. consumers to wonder when Lenovo will bring the updated tablet to their shores.
The Y700 Infinite trades the larger 9,000mAh battery of its predecessor for a smaller 7,470mAh capacity but remains lighter at 298 grams. It supports 68W charging and retains two USB-C ports. Although the exact timeline of its global launch remains uncertain, the arrival of the Legion Y700 Infinite could provide some much-needed competition to Apple's iPad mini and Red Magic's Astra, both of which already offer OLED displays.
Apple is rumored to be preparing an OLED display upgrade for its iPad mini later this year, which could further intensify the race for premium gaming tablets.
