Lenovo has announced today that the Lenovo Legion Tab, an 8.8-inch Android tablet for the modern mobile gamer, is soon going to be expanding availability from China to select markets in EMEA (Europe, Middle East, and Africa) and Asia. The Lenovo Legion Tab bridges the gap between PC and mobile gaming, offering a solution for gamers seeking a high-performance gaming experience that is both accessible and convenient.
The Lenovo Legion Tab transcends the typical expectations of a tablet, delivering outstanding gaming performance thanks to its Qualcomm Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 4nm processor and 12GB of LPDDR5X memory1 all in a 76mm thin Storm Grey tablet weighing in at just 350grams. The Lenovo Legion Tab allows for even more gaming on the go owing to its 256GB onboard storage—expandable with the microSD slot that supports up to 1TB cards. The 144Hz 8.8-inch QHD+ Lenovo PureSight gaming display brings visuals to vibrant life, allowing any Android compatible game to shine crisp and colorful. The tablet’s integrated haptic system gives gamers a further level of immersion and feedback so they can truly get in the game.
All this power is kept cool with the Legion ColdFront: Vapor thermal solution, featuring an oversized vapor chamber to keep things cool when the gaming gets hot. Legion ColdFront: Vapor offers three performance modes that allow users to tailor their tablet’s performance to their given scenario—Beast Mode when every frame counts; Balanced Mode that toes the line between performance, heat, and battery life; and Energy Saving mode which makes the most of the Lenovo Legion Tab’s 6550mAh battery for longer, untethered gaming sessions. When it is time to charge, the bottom USB Type-C® port (in landscape orientation) features the Qualcomm Quick Charge™ 3.0 technology and up to 45W of charging as well as charging bypass when gaming to help keep temperatures in check and cables out of the way. The USB Type-C ports offer DisplayPort™ 1.4 support so gamers can connect to a compatible external display to game small, bigger.
The Lenovo Legion Tab fits right into the Lenovo Legion ecosystem, offering seamless integration with other Legion devices. Through Lenovo Freestyle, gamers can effortlessly share content between the Lenovo Legion Tab and another Lenovo Legion Laptop, establishing a dynamic link that enhances the gaming experience across devices. The tablet is compatible with Lenovo Legion monitors, headsets, keyboards, and mice. The Lenovo Legion Tab and its ecosystem integration exemplify Lenovo’s commitment to providing a holistic gaming environment that prioritizes performance, convenience, and immersive gameplay.
Lenovo’s Premium Care Depot also provides essential support for gamers, offering help with device setup, internet connection fixes, software issues, and adding peripherals. This service ensures gamers have access to technical assistance when they need it most.
