Last month, a new version of the Legion Y70 was teased in China, along with a release date.
The teaser shared the appearance of the device, but did not reveal what chipset will be powering it. The brand only shared several characteristics of the devices, including the dedicated AI button and the inclusion of the Lenovo Tianxi AI (machine translated).
Today, Lenovo has officially launched the Legion Y70 (2026) in China, revealing the Lenovo's gaming sub-brand's newest smartphone in action.
With specifications like the Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 chip, an 8,000mAh battery, and a 5,500mm2 vapor chamber cooling, the Legion Y70 makes an ambitious return in its 2026 model.
