The Lenovo Legion Tab Y700 2023 edition is the best 8-inch Android tablet you can buy today. It features a very fast Qualcomm Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 processor with lots of RAM and storage, as well as a high-resolution 8-inch display with active pen support. We get two USB C ports, a premium build, great speakers, and Android 13.
What do you think of the Legion Tab Y700 2023?

I still remember the 8-inch Tab S2 from Samsung, which had high specifications and a small size, and so did Xiaomi. Unfortunately, companies stopped producing 8-inch devices that compete with the iPad mini from Apple. This device is very high-end, but it is directed to China. I don't know why there are no international versions of this device. Thank you very much for your efforts .
I don’t get it either. I had the Tab S2 and it was great. That’s the reason I have the iPad Mini, even though everything else I have is Samsung.
Because they would want you to buy their overpriced foldable phones instead.
@arondyte318 that would make sense if they stopped making 8-inch tablets recently. But the last time one came out was 2015. 5 years before the first foldable came out.
I think they stopped because there is some rule around MS-Office being free on devices that are smaller than 9.99 inches
Need wait global rim. 2022 Y700 already have global rom.
Lenovo has been doing great things when it comes to mini tablets in 2023. Not only that they released the Legion Y700 (2020), but the Legion Go as well. It is a shame that the Legion Y700 is not available in more countries because I think Lenovo would be a problem for Apple and Samsung. We need more competition in the mini tablet market. On the bright side, the Legion Go is available globally.
Lenovo is in a great position with no real android competitors in that size and they still don't sell a global version. What idiot made that decision? Does Lenovo not like making money?
I suggest that you make another video on the desktop mode on external monitor and test out the functionality. I believe most of us are looking for desktop mode and only few videos regarding this. Thanks.
How is the experience with multitasking and split screen? I plan on buying this for taking notes and replacing my laptop and notebook when going to my classes
I had the Galaxy Tab S2 too. Used it until the battery became weak. I replaced it with the 11 inches Samsung Galaxy Tab S7. Initially i felt 8 inches was the sweet spot of screen size but after using the 11 inches Tab S7, I think it's better.
It seems Samsung has the best software both for Android tablets and phones. The recent addition of the Taskbar on foldables and tablets makes one touch apps switching possible. Multitasking is also great. Chinese companies seem to be caughting up fast with Samsung , Oppo/ 1 + seem to be doing great with their software.
Love your videos sir ❤
Shoking that they removed the extended mode when connected to HDMI screen when in PC mode.I have the previous model and it has it. Works fine with a regular 1080p display, and also works with a huge 43" 4K computer monitor, but everything is then huge too. You have PC ode on big screen and can still run Android apps on the built-in display.Very handy.
It's not removed. I'm using it right now on the Lenovo legion Y700 2023 😂😂
Does Lenovo have a tool like Smart Select from OneUI to make GIFs using content you are watching?
Salut, super vidéo ! 👍 Je l'ai commandé elle arrive la semaine prochaine 🥰 Mais je crois qu'il faut faire une manipulation pour avoir le Playstore😮
I'm in badly needed one of it's 512gb version. Exactly what am looking for. How to get it from Bangladesh?
I picked it up myself, mate. Perfect size for those on the go, or just want something light weight. I'm not crazy about the UI. Wish it had a bit more customization, like when it comes to removing the swipe up bar at the bottom. Fortunately, it's not something I'd consider a deal breaker.
Wait, you can't remove the offensive gesture bar that tells me things the manufacturer knows that I already know? I guess I'll stay with my 2022 version running Android 11. Sometimes firmware devs act way more autistic than me. We all know there's no valid excuse for forcing that bar to be persistent. It's a tutorial, and nothing else. Most people simply aren't stupid enough to need that, and Lenovo removing the ability to disable that means that they think we are stupid. All they have to do is add a toggle, then everyone's happy, but they paid people to make the user experience much worse on purpose. My gosh.
Thank you for making this, would be good to see this in Indian market. Such devices does bring better utility.
Where can i buy it?
It's sad that this and the iPad Mini are almost the only tablets which are actually functional as handheld devices.
This is tempting i love 8in tablets. Looks perfect other than i need Samsung OneUI interface for easiest multi-window swapping and LTE. So I am still stuck with your advive for the Samsung Active 3 device. It's bulky and only FHD but basically wins on everything else.
There is a Lenovo version of the multi window interface that btw on the legions
Hi! What globally available tablet would you recommend with similar size and characteristics. Thank you
The only globally available competitor is the iPad Mini
I bought this from China in 2022. All good until recently I was trying to connect it to Android Enterprise for work related purposes, then found out this list isn't listed as compatible to Android Enterprise. Anyone has a workaround to this? 😢
Such a shame it doesn't have a 5G varient with GPS and Digital Compass. Would have been perfect then.
Does anybody know if they brought back desktop mode on the tablet screen in ZUI 15? I know they took it away in ZUI 14.
This tablet has PC Mode as you can see in the video
@@MyNextTablet can it be triggered without an external display though? It's really offensive that they thought it was okay to disable that. Now it can't be a true laptop replacement, just because they paid people to remove features. Did they bring back the ability to use it like a laptop (enter pc mode when not using an external display)? I'm guessing that's what the person you replied to was trying to ask. A souped up second display feature is NOT a PC mode. It's a second screen mode.
Google play store does not see the device, i cant install google play store, i can acces google play store from chrome but i cant install apps becouse im not logged in, if i want to install am app it show me my phone logged but i dont see this tablet, maybe incompatible, but how you people logged in google play store?
Happy with mine, but I have had little luck finding a smart case.. Been waiting over a month for Amazon order. Any suggestions?
Got a few for mine off AliExpress, delivery was around a week for each item 😂🤷
Aliexpress
Its a china rom or global rom? If that is china rom can you make short video how to change the language vielen dank
Better than ipad mini?
Does this support google's NEARBY SHARE and the LENOVO CONNECTION with PC?
Yes
I have this tablet, it has a fully integrated desktop mode. Just make sure to leave it in normal android mode (not internal desktop mode), once you plug it to the monitor, it will show extra options where you can adjust the resolution and even the frame rate (kinda like center stage of iPad OS). It works full native resolution on my 2k144hz monitor.
Wait, you have desktop mode? Why are people saying they don't have it? Did they bring back the actual pc mode (it's not actually a PC mode if it can only be triggered with a second screen, for it to be actually a PC mode, it needs to allow you to use your device like a PC with a mouse and keyboard, eg a laptop replacement).
Can't see this available anywhere
Great review. Can you recommend options to buy it from china . thanks in advance
I bought it from Giztop. But I found some screenshots on it, someone played Subway Surfers with it before I got it. So that's a bit weird^^ That's why I can't say I recommend them in particular, but at least I got it just fine...
Aliexpres
What's the model of the keyboard at @ 2:15 ?
It's a Jelly Comb foldable keyboard. Works fine but is not amazing.
Got the previous version and I was disappointed by the way the system behave: it's a powerhouse but it doesn't allow apps to run in the background so unless you keep your gmail open or messaging app open in foreground, you won't receive any notification.
Very annoying for day to day use.
I guess it's the same here. Ohh and no GPS antenna, so useless if you want to use it as Navigation system in your car, bummer.
If the Ipad mini 6 and this Y700 have the similar price. What would you recommend for a gaming tablet??
Depends what's more important to you. The better performance of the iPad Mini or the better screen of the Y700.
@@MyNextTabletand bigger storage... I chose android because it's still open sources.. there's a few apps i need that I can't install on my ipad mini 6..
I have both btw 😂😂
Over all i still love both... Especially the new one lenovo y700 2023 ❤
Absolutely wrong, Y700 is much better, not only the refresh rate is more than double, thermals are WAY better on the Y700, 3D Mark Wildlife extreme stability test the Y700 destroyed the Mini!! @@MyNextTablet
I have the 2022 version from giztop but no update option can some help please.
About tablet and system update 😂🤷
Great tablet! I have it.
is there any rumors. of 3rd gen for next year
Not yet but I'm gonna wait for it lol
What phone would you recommend that has similar specs to this?
No such phone exists. Even Sony phones have OLED, so you have to worry about screen longevity. These tablets really are one of a kind with having a high end LCD and MicroSD in 2024. The closest thing would be a midrange phone that's a few years old, but you'd probably be dealing with 1080p and a lower pixel density (and therefore not the same spec).
@@awesomeferret yea that's true. Closest I could find was the poco f5
Can you review the Doogee T20 mini and upcoming T20mini Pro next? :)
Cute Small Tablet!!! My Last Small Tablet is from Asus & it's about 8 Years a Go!!! Now I'm Using Lenovo Y900 Tablet for Best Ultra Tablet Experience 👍🏻🙂👍🏻
I also bought the Y900 (Lenovo Tab Extreme in the U.S.) with the keyboard and absolutely love it. I sold my Tab S8 Ultra and have no regrets.
@@LazyPCRehab Woaw that's Really Awesome Decision!!! It's Gonna be a Magnificent Experience too!!! Yay ✌🏻😃✌🏻
Y900 has a Dimensity 9000 which is decent but comes now where near the performance of the 8+ Gen 1, especially in the GPU side
@@ExilEliteYT Honestly I Collect Many Big Ultra Tablet & don't Really Care about the Processor!!! I Have Other specific Personal Interest!!! That's Why I Need Large Ultra Screen without notch inside the Screen itself!!! 🙂👍🏻
@@ExilEliteYT To be Honest I don't Care about Processor!!! I have My Specific Reason & Because of it, I always Buy Some Large Ultra Screen Tablet without notch!!! :D
To bad theres no 5G variants. Been eyeing this #MyNextTablet ❤ #Lenovo
Actually there is Extended mode to replace PC mode on this tablet, I'm using it right now with no Black bezels, plus I can use the tablet screen for other applications at the same time, even EPA prime showed how to use it in this tablet. Need to research before making extensive reviews on products!! 3D Mark Wildlife extreme stability test was 99.5 % which is actually better than the Samsung Tab S9 Ultra, so when it comes to Graphics and gaming the Lenovo legion Y700 is the best Android tablet on the market!
I have the 2022 model But it's on android 11 its supposed to be on Android 12 Anyone know how I update?
Dont update, i heard some people can't connect to google play after they upgrade to 12
Is the bypass charging feature used to play games safe?
The answer is so obviously "yes" that I would appreciate hearing why you thought it might not be.
@@awesomeferret because the seller doesn't recommend it
@@temp1z371 that could be a similar thing to some ignorant sellers still giving 30 year old battery advice (EG "don't ever leave it charging overnight" ). Strange. I would honestly be skeptical of their customer service if they put misinformation like that on their page. I wish I could ask the person who wrote that why they thought that was valid. After all, they are effectively claiming that a built in and warrantied feature from Lenovo that is accessible through the notification drawer is unsafe to use. No, that's really not how that works, and it's amazing that that isn't obvious to that seller. Technically, any Android device is unsafe to use because trading and gambling apps exist (you can ruin your entire life in a matter of minutes using only your fingers and without breaking any laws). It's about how you use it. But, I can't think of a way using the bypass charging mode can possibly by unsafe in any way. Granted, people thought that about a great little natural resource called asbestos for thousands of years.
i still dont understand why companies added more camera than necessary when it is marketed as a gaming device. if only we got like barebone device in the android space intended for note taking and on the go multimedia device like the ipad mini. I am really itching to get the mini over this, the only stop me is the lack of a high refresh rate screen.
Get the mini you liberal 😂😂
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 8-INCH PHONES??
I still use my mediapad m5 8,4. It's still solid even with out the latest android version
i will replace mine m5 with the new legion pad
Considering the state of "modern" Android, you might very well be having a superior user experience with that older version of Android. Enjoy it while you can.
I would already own this tablet if it had a headphone jack. It's so annoying how the omission of such an inexpensive part is keeping me on the 2022 version. Someday when the 2022 version becomes too old to use, I'll upgrade. I really hope they bring it back for a 2024 version and go back to a single camera to offset the cost of materials.
And also add an amoled display to it.
If they did that, it would be ruined, and would be a major dealbreaker. Shame on you for going full iSheep wannabe and pretending that durability and choice is a bad thing. This is the only high end Android tablet that doesn't suffer from burn in. The ONLY one. It's actually disgusting that you want every single tablet to have durability problems that make you not want to use your tablet. The old Android slogan was "be together, not the same". I want at least ONE high end tablet that I can use at max brightness for a few years without wearing out my display. Shame on you for wanting to take away that extremely limited option. Now, if they want to add OLED as a separate SKU and charge an extra 150 bucks for it, I'm all for that. Everybody wins. But your solution of "give it AMOLED" attacks power users and environmentally-minded people. All you have to do to avoid that is do what I did: suggest making a separate version with OLED to satisfy people like you, and keep selling an LCD variant for actual gamers and enthusiasts. If this was your intent when writing your comment, then I apologize. If that is the case, then I suggest NOT using the exact same words that people who want to take away the ONLY Android tablet with a super high end LCD that doesn't make you feel stressed and guilty for using your tablet. Android used to be about choice, and now the strongest voices AGAINST hardware diversity come from Android fans. It makes Apple fans look open minded by comparison.
This tablet has 2 Type-c port, so you can easily connect a headphone using type-c to 3.5mm adapter or use a headphone which comes with a Type-c jack.
@@BilaalM85 I hope you're just accidentally gaslighting me, and not intentionally doing so. Having to use a dongle is NOT an appropriate solution, since it makes connecting to Bluetooth significantly easier unless you already happen to have your usb DAC in your pocket. Some people have more than one device that they use on a daily basis, you know. Also, I shouldn't have to buy a new 50+ dollar device just to ALMOST get back a feature that was replaced by a camera that I will never ever use.
In the future, please put a bit more thought into your replies. Thank you. If what you said was actually valid, I wouldn't have posted my original comment. That's frankly a bit weird that you assumed I didn't know it had two usb ports, considering the video we are commenting on. The exact reason that I am so annoyed is because you CANNOT "easily connect a headphone using a type c adapter". That's the entire point. Instead of it being significantly easier to use wired headphones, it's now a bit easier to use Bluetooth, because wired audio is now so DIFFICULT to use. I shouldn't have to accept a significantly downgraded audio user experience just because they decided that a tablet that doesn't need a rear camera to begin with suddenly needs TWO trash cameras instead of one.
@@awesomeferret Am sorry if you feel this way. I was just sharing my opinion. I have been told am very direct in the way i express myself. Its not gaslighting or nothing personal.
I have been using a pixel 7 pro for the last year and it does not have a 3.5mm port. I almost did not get it because of this. All my previous phones had one. Am not sure why they are slowly removing it in all the new devices, specially flagshig ones. But i had to adapt by using a type-c to 3.5mm adapter or use my bluetooth earphones. I guess this tablet having 2 type-c ports makes it so much easier given you can still charge at the same time or use the other one for something else.
The way i see it, most future devices will likely not have it, so everyone will need to make the jump at some point, i see this specially on high end devices, not sure why. Maybe because it compromises waterproofing? Or because of the thickness of the device? Am not sure. This is the way i look at it and learned to accept it.
Do you now when will be europe version???
Sad that it's not international option. I guess the other option will be Alldocube iPlay 50 mini Pro and the Galaxy A9 but that has a HD+ display.
I picked up the iPlay 50 mini pro last week. It's a great tablet but it lacks pen support and worst of all can't stream videos in HD. Don't get me wrong I still like it and pen support wasn't a deal breaker but I didn't know that Netflix or other streaming apps would look so terrible.
@@aircreed Battery life must also be terrible right?
@Unan1mouz battery isn't great but not the worst
@@aircreed Around how many hours of continuous use?

where can I buy it?
In China only, sadly.

No cellular option. RIP.
What in your opinion is the best 8-9 Inch available now in Europe?
The iPad Mini
@@MyNextTablet thanks. What about Android tablet?
Is there any non Apple tablet of 8 inch, that supports 5G SIM..
If you don't mind a rugged design, check out the Samsung Galaxy Tab Active 5
These specs plus fingerprint reader and sim support and I have my new large phone.😢
Can you do more gameplay for fortnite?
I will be going to china. Buy this one or wait for ipad mini 7. What would you do?
Depends. If you want to buy a tablet and use it for 5 years, I would wait for the iPad Mini. But if you enjoy getting new tech, I would get the Y700 from China. It just won't get updates as long as an iPad will.
how do you install fortnite to tablet
Watching this on my Tab Y700 2023. Heil Legion✋🏻
Is PUBG mobile the global one that supports 90fps on this tablet, it is a critical point for buying this tablet
Why would you want it to support 90 fps? How the heck is that critical? Why is 120 or 144 fps not acceptable?
@@awesomeferret I'm talking about the game itself not the screen of the device
@@hammadmibox yep. And...
@@awesomeferret do u play PUBG mobile?
@@hammadmibox every once in a while. Again... Why 90? Why would you be unhappy if it only supported the native refresh rate (120 FPS)?
