Title: Lenovo’s Refreshed Legion Y700 “Super Control Edition”: A New Look with the Same Powerful Internals

Lenovo, a leading technology company, unveiled the second-generation Lenovo Legion Y700 back in July 2023. Following this release, Lenovo announced that they are working on an updated version of the Lenovo Legion Y700, dubbed as the “Super Control Edition.” This new model will feature a revamped design with a matte display, while maintaining all of its internal components from the previous version.

The Lenovo Legion Y700 “Super Control Edition” is characterized as a “replaced screen version.” This iteration brings an industry first – the application of micro-nano etched AG glass on the front. The benefits of this innovation include improved visibility with fewer reflections, particularly in outdoor conditions, and a soft touch feel to the display. Lenovo asserts that the touch friction of the glass has been reduced by an impressive 50%. Consequently, users can anticipate a significantly enhanced user experience.

The Lenovo Legion Y700 “Super Control Edition” will retain the 8.8-inch high-resolution panel, featuring a pixel density of 343 PPI and a resolution of 2560X1600. This panel size is perfect for those seeking a portable yet powerful tablet experience.

A Weibo user recently commented that the anticipated successor with upgraded chipset and internal components will not be available until the latter half of 2023. Lenovo confirmed these reports, stating that the third-generation Lenovo Legion Y700 “will not be available for at least the next two months.”

Moving on to the internal specifications, the second-generation Lenovo Legion Y700 houses the powerful 4nm Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 chipset. Tablet buyers have two memory and storage configurations to choose from: 12GB + 256GB or 16GB + 512GB. The tablet is also equipped with a dual camera setup on the back, consisting of a 13MP primary sensor and a secondary 2MP sensor. An 8MP selfie camera graces the front for all your self-portrait needs.

Connectivity options on the Lenovo Legion Y700 include two USB Type-C 3.1 Gen2 ports and support for display output with DisplayPort 1.4. This tablet is truly a force to be reckoned with, delivering powerful performance in a sleek and modern design. Stay tuned for more information on the Lenovo Legion Y700 “Super Control Edition” as it becomes available.
