ETA, my friend! "Desktop mode" in ZUI is not called Extended mode. What you want is called PC Mode, but that only works in mirrored mode, and on the gen 2 you need a 3rd party app like Pixels to set your resolution to match the external display. This is how you get title bars, window snapping, a proper start menu / task bar, etc.

[@leophoenix1452]

@VictorContesBlackSon the Lenovo y700 is the best performance bargain for an android device right now...

[@darminiam]

@leophoenix1452 Yes, the Red Magic Tablet has an overclocked version of this chipset, the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 Leading Version. This Lenovo Y700 has the regular Snapdragon 8 Gen 3. So the Red Magic is faster. This overclocked version has the same numbers as the Samsung S24 Ultra with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 for Samsung Galaxy. (also overclocked variant).

[@jasonb3628]

The Redmagic Nova is actually using a different version of the snapdragon 8 gen 3 chip, called the leading version. At the core, the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 Leading Version is basically an overclocked variant of the standard SoC. It has the Cortex X4 core clocked at 3.4 GHz and the Adreno 750 GPU at 1 GHz. In comparison, the standard chipset's Cortex X4 core is clocked at 3.3 GHz, while the GPU is set at 900 MHz However, this has caused for some stability and power issues on the Nova where the device can't maintain the full performance of the chip through extended game sessions, due to the excessive heat.

@@robbufford Why not? The thing is, there will always be a more powerful one next year. The only reason you want a more powerful is so that 1) it will last longer before you need to upgrade, 2) you want to emulate a more powerful system, but now the emulation software is falling behind on Android. 3) Android gaming.

[@robbufford]

@@darminiam yeah now we need longer android support more than more powerfull chipset. Now we can play gamecube and ps2 4k, ps3 emulation is still in progress and with SD 8 Gen 3 we can play all android games full speed.

​@@robbufford I don't, but if it's available with reasonable price bump, then why would u go with the last gen?

@@darminiam I hope one day in the future we will have true general purpose Arm chip devices which will be able to run multiple supported OS's besides closed "open source" Android similar like it's on Steam Deck so community is not just stuck with the Android emulators.

I used to be able to and it looked great and played fine. I'm hoping the 3rd gen will be able to play at high quality. I wish more companies made premium devices in this size, I find it the best size for gaming. I mainly use the tablet for work and watching youtube when I'm not in front of my computer, but I do some light gaming and the gen 2 performs extremely well except for being unable to use high graphics in certain games.

The lack of a memory card is a deal breaker for me. I'll be picking up the 2023 version instead for considerably cheaper with a chipset that isn't too different from the 8 gen 3.

[@takakazushi6703]

As far as I know...Legion Y700 2024 tablet is a Chinese edition. Global (ROM) edition has not yet been released. Everyone should know this in advance. GENERALLY speaking, Chinese ROM versions really cut back on power by shutting off background programs and notifications... So that important call on Google Voice or Skype may not come in if you are using another program. I had trouble with my Chinese edition HUAWEI phones that had Google side loaded. If you did a factory reset, you loose Google and associated programs stop operating. As time passes harder and harder to go back in history to "re-install" Google and get the use of Google Play required apps.

finally an actual review, not some re-edited/re-hashed clickbait videos that has been out for weeks

[@rabichowdhury212]

Where did you buy it from? I cant find the 2024 version anywhere (except AliExpress)

[@colonfamily6467]

I have had this tablet for 2 months now (china rom) and absolutely love it. I bought the Gamesir G8+ and the tablet fits the controller perfectly. It turns your tablet into a PS Portal that can also Remote play and stream Xbox games as well. It can also utilize steam link. I mostly use the tablet to emulate up to PS2 and GameCube games without an issue. I bought the 16gb of ram version and don’t regret it. Paired with a 1TB SD card, there’s plenty of space to store emulated games. Plus let’s not forget, it’s also a table that can turn into a desktop with HDMI out capabilities. Best purchase I’ve made in a while

[@turbojobo]

i thought there was no sd

[@jaydawg3031]

So are you lying or there is actually an SD card? Or you bought the 1st or 2nd gen.

[@Harishsulghar]

Hey ETA prime. I think a video on using desktop mode would be great. you may want to highlight parsec or moonlight streaming for folks who have a dedicated gaming pc or server at home and want to use this as a light weight option to take your media with you on the go. I think this would pair up nicely with a travel mouse/keyboard and portable monitor.

[@GGMan]

Desktop mode is nice, like how they implemented options to change window size

[@mrdzin1209]

the only thing holding me back is android devices are known to be abandoned after 2 years, you'd be lucky to get 2 major OS version upgrade. Besides the high-end Samsung's which promised to receive 7 years of OS update, absolutely no Android devices are worth buying for long-term usage.

[@darththew]

Finally someone makes a powered 8 inch android tablet

[@SJsRedemption]

Definitely gotta get one of these

[@Jan123.]

Thanks for the video. I am very interested in notes taking and pencil support. I'd love to use it in a business office context as my daily tasks planner and journaling device. Thanks.

[@ipreferfreedom162]

Id like to see a dedicated desktop mode video. I'm going travelling & thinking about this for computing on the go.

[@sodxyctron7807]

It is mostly Apple and Samsung who doesn’t include a brick and Google pixels, but almost everyone else just gives a charger. It it also those three that mostly complain about wrong charging bricks used, but doesn’t give the right one in the box. They act like those charging bricks are indestructible and never breaks.

[@Tengman24]

Just wondering how well it performs in editing pictures and videos.

[@edal3375]

Please, how could you install the Google Play Store?

[@wizardcloudsdragon4364]

It would be nice to get the comparison of this one (Lenovo Y700 2024) vs. Redmagic Nova (2024).

[@dreadlord9257]

Lenovo brought in the display in and then got rid of it almost immediately, which is a shame. I still maintain that all tablets should have a display in an function as a portable monitor. I mean wired, not their laggy software or wifi based solutions that often times require you to install software on the host device (which can be a no-go for a multitude of reasons).

[@Medina_Y2K]

How long are android tablets being supported these days? Anywhere close to the many years of an iPad?

[@SniperPaul]

Is there stylus support on this tablet?

[@EvilDeadGuy666]

Hi when will it be released to the U.S to order it or is it an item that can only be ordered from over seas ?

[@MicaelAngeles]

I wish samsung would make a galaxy tab s this size, this form factor + high-end specs + s-pen would be pretty awesome

[@ImpressiveTony]

I JUST bought the 2023 model, with the Snapdragon 8 gen 1. I wonder if this upgrade is worth the $200 price difference, especially when it comes to Switch emulation.

[@darminiam]

The short answer is yes. I think once they got to Snapdragon 8 gen 2, that was the difference maker for Switch emulation. So this should be much better and will last you a long time, even with the SD Elite around the corner. Also, the Elite could move us to the next generation of emulation on Android if the software materializes to support it. But I bet Windows emulation will boom with the SD Elite.

[@bubbles5217]

10:51 hello 2025, and i like your video dubbing style.

[@dentanlim]

The price of the ipad mini really raises the prices of other tablets of this size range. Price should only be US$400 max

[@rko_taurus]

I wish it had an oled display. That would have made this one of the best tablets ever built !

[@jayr122001]

Lenovo legio go and Legion y700 are my favorite gadgets this year

[@allgrip_creations]

I'd love to see you try Mafia classic and perhaps even Mafia II classic on this tablet. The first game should run very well on this one, I ran it on a mid-range Redmi Note 10 Pro and it was playable, but 30 fps made me struggle a bit. Hope you don't miss my wish
