In the current tablet market, the mainstream product size is basically between 10 inches and 11 inches, and the products of this size do a very good job in the experience of audio and video. But for people who like to play games, 11 inches is a bit too big, and the iPad mini, which has the best game experience on the iPad, is also 8.3 inches in size. So, is there a game tablet of this size on the Android side? My answer is – Lenovo Savior Y700.
First of all, in terms of appearance, the upper left corner of the back of the Lenovo Savior Y700 is a "LEGION" logo, and people familiar with the notebook must know this logo, and the upper right is the location of the camera and flash. In addition, there is also a Lenovo logo in the lower right corner, and the ID design of the entire back is still quite Lenovo style. PS: It would be nice to have a big "Y" light logo.
The front of the Lenovo Savior Y900 is an 8.8-inch LCD screen, with a resolution of 2560 * 1600, a ppi of 343, this fineness, has exceeded the iPad mini 6, while the high refresh rate of 120Hz also lays a hardware foundation for high-brush games. In terms of brightness and color gamut, this screen also reaches 500nit and 100% DCI-P3 wide color gamut. Of course, some people may feel that the brightness of this screen is a little low, but the positioning of this tablet itself is game-specific, and indoors, the brightness of 500nit is completely enough.
In addition, I also took a closer look at the border of the Rescuer Y700, which is made of metal and has a good texture.
In terms of actual viewing experience, I think it is acceptable, watching videos in bed is better than several 11-inch large boards, after all, the weight of the whole machine is only 375g, which can be said to be very light.
In terms of processors, Lenovo Savior Y900 uses Snapdragon 870, although this processor is worse in absolute performance, but compared to Snapdragon 888 and Snapdragon 8Gen1, the energy efficiency in actual use is better than the performance, and there is no problem with the high frame rate mode of several main games, and the performance is very balanced.
In terms of high frame rate games, Lenovo Savior Y700 has adapted to the high refresh rate mode of Peace Elite, League of Legends, Crash Three, QQ Speeding Car, Crossfire, Call of Duty and other games, which can already meet the game needs of the vast majority of people.
In the actual game, the Rescuer Y700 performed quite well. Because of the volume limitation of the mobile phone, with the increase of the game time, the surface temperature will gradually increase, and after the grip time is long, the palm surface will be uncomfortable. However, this situation is greatly alleviated on the plate, on the one hand, the volume of the plate is larger, and the overall heat dissipation area is also increased; on the other hand, the rescuer Y700 is also equipped with a VC vaporizer with a total area of 8500 + mm, which can make the heat more evenly dispersed.
After opening the switch on the top of the tablet, you can see the CPU and GPU frequency in the current state, as well as the battery temperature and current frame rate in the upper left corner of the tablet. In addition, the switch at the top will support more customization functions later, which is highly playable.
Even if you open the game, this display menu is still displayed in the upper left corner. This feature is ecstatic for game lovers.
The system comes with a game menu option, the function is very rich, you can automatically record a wonderful game screen, sharing to the social platform is very convenient, in addition to the League of Legends and the glory of the king, also support ultra-wide field of view function, can make the tablet display more game screen. Anyone who has played MOBA games knows how important vision is. With a bigger field of vision, you don't have to worry about being caught anymore.
Since the machine itself supports dual X-axis linear motors, the Rescuer Y700 also supports the game dual-domain on-field vibration, which can simulate some vibrations like shooting, footsteps, etc.
The accessories that come with the Rescuer Y700 are quite interesting, the protective sleeve and bracket are split design, and there is a tile on the bottom of the back of the protective case, and the bracket is connected by a tile and a protective case.
When you need to put the flat plate up for use, you can attach the bracket.
When you need to put it away, you can also cover the bracket directly to the front, and when you need to use it handheld, you can directly remove the bracket. This split design I think other brands can learn, or quite useful.
Then there is the system, ZUI13 on the tablet adaptation I think is very good, the pull-down status bar as a whole center, adjusted is still very convenient.
In addition, this tablet also supports computer mode, this function I think should be the standard of all tablets at present, it will be more convenient to handle the content of the work.
After entering computer mode, the overall UI interface is similar to the notebook's Windows system.
In terms of the horizontal screen ecology that everyone is more concerned about, the adaptation of the rescuer Y700 is very good, and the mainstream headlines, Taobao and other software support one screen and two interfaces.
When you open two apps at the same time, the left and right interfaces also support switching positions with each other.
The built-in small window mode can be used even on the desktop.
Video software also supports full-screen viewing in small windows, and the experience will be better.
In addition, even if the video is played in full screen, the small window application can still be used normally.
Landscape apps support switching between multiple.
The entire horizontal screen operation logic of the Y700 is similar to Huawei's parallel horizon, but Lenovo's several functions have slightly expanded some functions, and in the settings, these functions are collectively referred to as one horizon.
The full screen gesture supports three-finger operation, which can realize switching multitasking, screenshot, split screen and other operations.
The battery interface can see the battery temperature, and there are some mode switching, as well as features such as battery protection.
Dark mode supports automatic switching based on sunrise and sunset.
The Savior Y700 also supports interaction with pCs, and can cast tablet screens onto a computer.
In terms of battery and charging, the Rescuer Y700 uses a 6550mAh battery, supports 45W fast charging, and is compatible with PD and QC4.0, and the compatibility is very good. 15 minutes can be full of 40%, 30 minutes can be full of 80%, the final trickle time is relatively long, fully charged only 57 minutes, for the tablet, this charging speed is still quite fast, in the current mainstream Android tablet can be counted as the first echelon of products. In addition, the rescuer Y700 also supports the bypass charging function, after opening, the external power supply will directly power the tablet, no longer power the battery, the benefits of this, on the one hand, can protect the battery, on the other hand, can also reduce the overall heat of the tablet.
Finally, regarding the Savior Y700, I personally recommend that heavy users of the game choose to buy, this product should be the most complete Android game function at present. If Huawei is to do the way to do the phone PC, then Lenovo is to do the way to do the PC to do the tablet, all aspects have taken into account the needs of game users, including like the processor resource display, bypass charging functions, these in the previous tablet has not appeared, Lenovo has done, in this regard, have to admire Lenovo. This tablet has not yet been officially listed, do you think it will cost more than three thousand? Is it a good place to start?
